The 1962 expansion NY Mets were the worst team in baseball history.  They were an expansion team that create to replace the void in NY by the departure of the Brooklyn Dodgers. The colors were based on those of the Dodgers, although the team was based out of Flushing, Queens. They were managed that first year by famed Yankee manger, Casey Stengel. His is known for his famous quote “Can’t anybody here play this game?” This aptly describes the Obama White House.

These clowns  in the Obama regime really don’t know what they are doing. They made a severe recession into a depression. They have propped  up inefficient companies, thus hampering a real recovery. We now have 3rd World style crony State Capitalism. Obama is giving Bernanke the green light for debt monetization, thus reducing our living standards. These clowns are just like the 1962 Mets, they really don’t know what they are doing!

It would be bad enough to compare the Obama White House to the New York Mets of today — but right now, the Obama White House would be lucky to be merely that bad. What it resembles most closely is the fabled rookie team that went 40-120 in 1962, the gaggle about whom Casey Stengel famously cried, “Can’t anybody here play this game?”

I’m not talking about the wisdom or lack thereof Obama has shown on the ludicrous issue of his long-form birth certificate. One can assume that for a long time, the White House thought the issue wasn’t really a problem, or even that the obsession over it in certain quarters was actually helping the president.

Now, however, it thinks the issue is hurting Obama, so it’s trying to bring the controversy to an end by doing something it clearly could’ve done anytime over the past three years.

But that isn’t what made yesterday such a disaster. What invoked the 1962 Mets was the White House staging of the birth certificate’s release.

The difference between the 62 Mets and the Obama Regime is that the baseball team only made themselves look like fools. The Obama Regime is hurting millions of Americans. Our already weak strategic and economic position, was made even worse by the amateurs and ideologues of this White House team. This whole team needs to be fired!

As much as I have my differences on foreign policy with the GOP and I don’t trust them on economic issues, I will vote for whoever the GOP nominee is. At least it will be a Progressive who doesn’t hate this country like Obama. After Obama is removed, then I will go after whoever the Progressive Republican President is when I disagree with them. But first things first . the 1962 Mets style Obama regime needs to go!

Update: Speranza made a correction to my explanations of the NY Mets colors.

Btw the Mets were to replace both the Dodgers and the Giants. Their colors Blue (Dodgers team colors) and Orange (Giants team colors) reflected that.
