President Obama: Buy a 'thingamajig' for your furnace & stimulate the economy

While stumping in Golden Valley, Minn., President Obama told a group of Honeywell employees that his proposed tax breaks would help them afford “thingamajigs” for their furnaces.

“There are some folks here who could use $3,000 a year,” President Obama said. “If you got $3,000 dollars a year extra, that helps you pay down your credit cards, that helps you go out and buy some things that your family needs — which is good for business.”

“Maybe some of you will be replacing some thingamajig for the furnace,” the president said to laughs and applause.

“They’ve been putting that off! But if they got that extra money, they might just go out that and buy that thing, right?”

That was wincingly funny, they covered this on The Five.  It's June, and soon Minnesota will become the nation's oven (as well as icebox).  What the hell $3K was he talking about, anyway?  It's his Taxmageddon looming before us.

This is the first thing I thought about when Obama said that.  My daughter is in love with this book and makes me read it three times a day.
