Do we have a Rufus T. Firefly scenario in the White House?

If it's bad news that the Obama administration wants to release, look for them to dump it on a Friday.

Reuters takes out this end of the work week trash:

The Obama administration will raise its 10-year budget deficit projection to roughly $9 trillion from $7.108 trillion in a report next week, a senior administration official told Reuters on Friday.

"The new forecasts are based on new data that reflect how severe the economic downturn was in the late fall of last year and the winter of this year," said the official, who is familiar with the plans.

Did you notice the subtle jab at the Bush administration?

But the Obama-ites were so certain that their economic stimulus bill bondoggle was precisely the elixir to cure our economic ills! They promised us that the nationwide would not exceed 8 percent--it's now up to 9.4 percent. After seven months of this I have to question whether Barack Obama has the qualifications to run our nation--and I'm not talking about the "birther" issue. I'm wondering about his competence.

Do we have a Rufus T. Firefly running things in Washington?

If that's the case, it's not funny this time around.

Because it's real.
