Ditch vs. Cliff -- Ditch Wins

One of Obama's favorite metaphors is that Republicans drove the economy into the ditch. Fine. Let's pursue that analogy a bit further.

Given the rising deficit, massive debt, anemic recovery, and high unemployment, it seems like Obama, in a drunken spending frenzy, is driving the that car off the cliff.

At least in a ditch, we can tow the car out, and point it back toward the right direction. The car might need some repair, but at least it won't be lost forever.

So next time you hear that metaphor, just remember: If it's your car, and you had to choose ... choose the ditch.
