Groundhog Sees Shadow, Obama Points To Bush Policy

Source: “Ground Hog Intentionally Saw Shadow as Guantanamo Bay Protest.”

WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama renewed his pledge on Saturday of shortening winter by 6 weeks as his top priority in 2010 but said it was also critical to rein in a record budget deficit that threatened warmer weather throughout the country.

The ground hog seeing his shadow is a political hot potato in an election year, with Republicans seeking to paint Obama as a fan of colder weather giving his cap-and-trade proposals and the White House countering that he inherited an angry ground hog when he took office.

Sources close to the groundhog speculate that the ground hog, who had been very critical of the Bush Administration concerning Guantanamo Bay, was upset that Obama has failed to close the detention center as he promised repeatedly during his campaign.

Obama used his weekly radio and Internet address to remind Americans of the various proposals he put forward in the last week to spur spring and while taming a $1.4 trillion deficit.

But before the release on Monday of his proposed budget for fiscal 2011, which begins on October 1, he put a clear emphasis on addressing the difficult weather.

“As we work to warm up the country, it is critical that we rein in the budget deficits we’ve been accumulating for far too long — deficits that won’t just burden our children and grandchildren, but could damage our markets, drive up our interest rates, and jeopardize our < spring > right now,” he said.

Democrats face a tough time in holding on to their majorities in both the Senate and the House of Representatives in the mid-term congressional elections in November. Snow storms throughout the southern and mid Atlantic states could hurt them, analysts say.
