My open letter to Herman Cain yesterday got a number of good responses from around the blogosphere. I want to direct you to several of them this morning by way of a more extensive Clearing the Browser Tabs post. Oh, I have a few things I could post this morning, but I want to save [...]
As if the coming debt tsunami, our tepid economic growth, and high unemployment aren’t enough, there is one more fiscal problem in front of us that we’re going to have to handle in the very near future. USA Today reported that outstanding student loan debt topped a trillion dollars (via memeorandum). We added $100 billion [...]
I’m pretty sure President Obama’s pants were very quietly on fire in this interview with Jake Tapper. The President said a few things about Operation Fast and Furious that were outright deceptive. I got into the particulars and summed-up what we know of the investigation into a program that has caused the deaths of at [...]
One of the big stories the MSM have yet to dig out of the Mother of All Friday News Dumps is the tale of how (and why) the administration refused to release all the Operation Fast and Furious documents Congress requested. You don’t really have to think all that hard to come up with a [...]
It’s become a tradition lately for President Obama to dump the worst possible news on a Friday, to avoid several good news days’ worth of coverage. The MSM has obliged him nicely by mostly ignoring those inconvenient stories on its weekend “talking head” pundit shows and early Monday headlines. Yesterday, though, the administration truly outdid [...]
The stories in the news lately about how several states are shuffling around the dates of their primaries may seem like inside political baseball, but it’s important to the voters and will have a direct influence over our choices in the Presidential election next year. Here is the story in brief. Some states have gotten [...]
Remember when the smartypants pundits on the right said that Herman Cain had no chance in the Presidential race and that his campaign would just be for entertainment? Yeah, well, none of them are laughing now that Cain leads the field. In separate polls, NBC/Wall Street Journal and Public Policy Polling (via memeorandum) have Cain [...]
Last night, President Obama’s jobs bill went down to defeat thanks to a bipartisan group of mostly Republicans and a couple Democrats. I don’t doubt they saved us from calamity. There is nothing at all in the President’s plan that will create jobs for anyone but overpaid bureaucrats and rich union organizations. The administration certainly [...]
I’ve heard for months that Herman Cain can not win the Republican nomination and that, if by some fluke of politics he did, he could never win the White House. His naysayers among my conservative friends cite one reason almost unanimously: he has never held elected office. They don’t have major problems with the policy [...]
I just can’t stop posting about the Occupy Wherever protests. Whenever I think they’ve reached the heights of ridiculousness or hypocrisy, they grab a stepladder and go up a few more feet. They’re throwing jazz hands and creepy chanting in New York. In Georgia, they shut down former civil rights leader and Democratic lion Rep. [...]
