Attitude Boot Camps for Elk County???

[Warph]

(WarphWire  01-08-2009) — With U.S. consumer confidence near historic lows, President-elect Barack Hussein Obama today plans to announce an increase in his $800 billion economic stimulus package, adding another $200 billion to pay for confidence-building classes for all Americans.

"Like most economic problems, the real challenge is mental," Mr. Obama will reportedly say during an address at George Mason University. "But the only thing we have in which to lack confidence...... is lack of confidence itself."

Across the nation, the Obama administration will set up "attitude boot camps" to teach people how to ignore facts and "place their hope in Change that we can believe in."

The program is based on the successful strategy employed by the Obama for America presidential campaign, which combined professional stagecraft, appearances by celebrities, free concerts by pop stars and soaring rhetoric, to persuade a majority of voters that they could place confidence in a rookie senator to serve as commander in chief.

"For those of you who have been to leadership and team-building seminars," he said, "think of this $200 billion as an investment in one huge national trust fall."    http://strongerteams.files.wordpress.com/2007/02/trust_fall.gif
