not likely
Our lovable Vice President Joe Biden talking to Larry King:
I am very optimistic about — about Iraq. I mean, this could be one of the great achievements of this administration. You’re going to see 90,000 American troops come marching home by the end of the summer. You’re going to see a stable government in Iraq [...]
well…yeah
What Alan Bock said in the OC Register:
It’s not that there isn’t a good deal of truth in such criticisms of the ways of a “Washington” he invoked more as an epithet than a place. But at what point does a president of the United States take responsibility for his part in feeding the atmosphere [...]
grading on a curve
We certainly can’t say that the President of the United States lacks self-confidence. When asked to grade his performance as President, he gave himself a B+. Can’t imagine what kind of curve he was using to come up with that grade. Obviously our citizen king knows better than we do about, well, everything, so [...]
health care “reform”
The House passed HR3962, commonly known as PelosiCare / ObamaCare, this evening, with 39 Dems voting against and one Republican (Cao) voting for it. The battle isn’t over yet. Let’s keep fighting.
In other news, this happened. Very cool of former President W.
what’s different
I don’t like federal interference in private industry. Have I made that clear enough yet? That means I would have been opposed to former Treasury Secretary Paulson, acting (I assume) on the orders of President Bush, putting heavy pressure on the head of AIG to step down after AIG received one of their many sacks [...]
better to remain silent
But no…Chuck Schumer must speak and say something stupid.
Here he is:
Why else would the American people oppose this bill? This stimulus bill will NOT fix the economy for a variety of reasons. One of those reasons is that most of the new spending projects won’t provide any immediate benefit to the average person. At least [...]
georgia
Maybe I’m missing something here, but I don’t see the bellicose calls for World War III and / or the use of military force against Russia — that the left is claiming — from anyone who has the authority to execute such a plan. The Bush administration isn’t offering the use of our military to [...]
are they serious?
Non-”right wing crazies” also question the Democrats’ (and specifically Obama’s) patriotism.
Like Joe Klein, for example.
This is a chronic disease among Democrats, who tend to talk more about what’s wrong with America than what’s right. When Ronald Reagan touted “Morning in America” in the 1980s, Dick Gephardt famously countered that it was near midnight “and [...]
smackdown: the carter vs. bush edition
If I had former President Jimmy Carter’s dubious record of achievement, I would be more careful about calling another President’s administration the “worst in history”. Someone might actually call him on it, like Deputy WH Press Secretary Tony Fratto, who said, ” I think it’s sad that President Carter’s reckless personal criticism is out there…I [...]
