Obama's Binge Rhetoric

For George Will the Deepwater Horizon oil spill is a metaphor for Obama and his party.

The unceasing torrent of his ill-chosen words is analogous to the unstoppable oil spill, which itself resembles his and his party’s incontinent spending. Just as congressional Democrats’ budget strategy is to have no budget, Obama’s communication strategy is to have no silence. Having no budget means, as Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) says, having no priorities and hence no restraints. Having no communication strategy means him being constantly in the nation’s face, hectoring incessantly, unconstrained by priorities.

Obama is into his second year of a rhetorical bender.  He won't stop talking and his party won't stop spending.
