He said he didn't come into the presidency "all ginned up to spend 787 billion dollars," but circumstances demanded that he take this Keynesian approach to economic policy.
The Right is of course all up in arms over this, along with the conviction, in some quarters, that he is really Kenyan born, and hence an unconstitutional President. But above and beyond this, his alleged Kinseyianism is what really gets some blood boiling. So we might say: it is not so much his economic policies that get him all ginned up, but as Judith Reisman charges, it is sexual politics that gets him rather ripped...
Obama ripped on 'sex agenda'
Update, March 11
Senator Sam Brownback is apparently on Reisman's mailing list, as evidenced by his tizzied knickers...

Obama ousts Churchill
It should come as no surprise, given the history of the Obama "family jewels" with the British Empire, that President Obama would want that hideous bust of Winston Churchill out of his sight the minute he entered the Oval Office. The significance was not lost to the UK Telegraph:
Churchill has less happy connotations for Mr Obama than those American politicians who celebrate his wartime leadership. It was during Churchill's second premiership that Britain suppressed Kenya's Mau Mau rebellion. Among Kenyans allegedly tortured by the colonial regime included one Hussein Onyango Obama, the President's grandfather.
But, the sex symbolism of the moment begs further comment, in so far as this room might be called our National Ovum: as the Christian Science Monitor notes,
"Oval" comes from the Latin ovum, "egg," – birth and new beginnings, a place where our greatest aspirations might hatch and take wings.
Hence, upon entering this chamber representing feminine fertility, Barack Obama was confronted by the man bearing responsibility for the cutting off of the masculine generative power of his grandfather (fortunately, Barack Sr. had already been born by this time).
So... OFF WITH HIS HEAD!
Flashback: March 3, 1999
On an unrelated but tangental note, it is timely to recall another episode - nearly ten years ago - in the sex symbolism of Washington D.C., as was signified by the illumination of an enscaffolded National Phallus (better known as the Washington Monument) on the eve of Barbara Walters's broadcast interview with Monica Lewinsky on ABC's 20/20; in which Lewinski revealed her experiences with then President Clinton's phallus in the Oval Office. To Walter's question as to whether she was satisfied "as a woman..." suggesting: 'did you orgasm?' Lewinsky's reply was in the affirmative...

Helen's Question
"Do you know of any country in the Middle East that has nuclear weapons?"
The second of Helen Thomas's questions to President Obama was clearly leading: she wasn't asking about Iran's prospective nukes, but more to the point, about Israel's possession of nukes.
His answer was intriguing:
"I don't want to speculate..." - In other words, everyone has known for years that Israel is in the nuclear club, but it remains officially unrecognized and undiplomatic to discuss. He continues:
"If we see a nuclear arms race in a region as volatile as the Middle East, everybody will be in danger..." He then says he wants to prevent nuclear proliferation "generally," which would suggest, for everyone, and states his desire that the United States, "in concert with Russia," will lead the way in reducing nuclear weapons and thus give us the "standing" from which to persuade others to honor non-proliferation treaties.
He then cuts Helen off when she tries to re-ask the question, which of course he skirted. But his answer was perhaps more radical than a direct answer would have been. A nuclear arms race is underway in the Middle East: Israel has them, Iran is trying to get them; in the past Iraq, Libya and perhaps Syria have pursued them. Even if Iran stands down for now, surely in the future other countries will try to get them, so long as Israel has nukes. So the strategy of setting an example with Russia has one ultimate aim (among others) of getting Israel to give up its nukes, leaving other nations in the region with little reason to pursue them.
For backround:
Why has Israel refused to sign the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty?

"Jews jewed by Jew"
Given all the animosity directed towards Wall St. of late, one can imagine that the title phrase, or some variation of it, has been uttered in many an anti-Semitic barroom soliloquy, in reference to Bernie Madoff's 50 billion dollar ponzi scheme, counting among its victims foundations attached to prominent names like Spielberg and Elie Wiesel. Indeed, many Jews have wondered aloud about the implications... Does Madoff fall into that rare but recurring phenomenon of the anti-Semetic Jew? (For a good cinematic study, see The Believer, being loosely based on the case of Francis Collin)
As you can see, however, many gullible goyim were sucked up in the scam as well: Madoff Victims Lists
