The Speech… Pt 2

Share Button

The plan.. or what-ever that was?  As far as fixing the economy… I won’t do much. It’s will add a few more jobs, but will do nothing to fix the underlying structural problems that are weighing down the economy like an anchor around the neck. Politically though, it’s a good move. By throwing everything and […]

The Speech…. Hey, Look At That Chicken!

Share Button

After a while…. looking at a chicken would have been more interesting. In a nut-shell: “We’re going to have tax breaks for people while we raise taxes on people. Corporations are bad because they take advantage of tax incentives we have given them. We’re offering tax incentives for companies to create jobs. We’re going to […]

Question – Why Do Competitors In High School Debates Get More Time To Answer Questions Than Presidential Candidates In Presidential Debates??????

Share Button

Man! This article is right on! And if the contestants were allowed to question each other, and have at least five to ten minutes to respond with detailed, complex, well thought out answers instead of sound bites, I can bet at least four of the current GOP pretenders would have no choice but to drop […]

Huntsman’s Problem – He’s Not A Fake Conservative!

Share Button

My blog-pal Dan at Gay Patriot has glowing praise for John Huntsman’s economic plan, published in the Wall Street Journal yesterday. Dan writes: Jon Huntsman has taken a lot of grief from conservatives as being a RINO while winning acclaim from the left-of-center media establishment as a “grown-up” type of Republican. On Sunday talk shows, […]

Quote Of The Week!… “Paul Krugman is a political rookie.”

Share Button

This gem, from Obama for America (OFA) New Mexico State Director Ray Sandoval, explaining that Obama (of course) knows more about economics than Paul Krugman! Sandoval didn’t write it, but he forwarded it to supporters as a “Must Read”, defending the Presidents debt ceiling deal. Paul Krugman is a political rookie. At least he is […]

Andrew Sullivan – The Rose Colored Glasses Conundrum… Or, The Man-Crush That Just Won’t Die!

Share Button

Sullivan writes:   I rather glibly wrote recently that one reason president Obama has not opened a can of rhetorical whup-ass on those actually seeking the default of the US Treasury, is that he wants to avoid the “angry black man” trope. Once he is defined as that, the GOP needs nothing more to use […]

A Note To Andrew Sullivan….

Share Button

Conservatives HATE what liberals do, and the “socialist” legislation they pass….. Unless it directly benefits them! When a friends Dad suffered a stroke a number of years ago, the family, though very Conservative and very well-to-do, had no problems using Medicare – D to help keep medical costs down as much as possible, even though […]
