Why would the federal government even consider bailing out a corporation that has made horrible business decisions for years? GM should go bankrupt and re-organize under new management, at least that’s what Michael Levine writing for the Wall Street Journal thinks. I agree. At least one United States Senator has some common sense. Sen. Jim...
Orwell’s Children – Bruce Walker remembers Jonestown, Nazi Germany and the Soviets. We are drifting into the sort of horrific future he described. Too many of us for comfort or solace have become just like the denizens of Jonestown: Orwell’s children — a new generation of creature enraged into constant militancy against eternal enemies,...
The election is over and Barack Obama is going to be the 44th President of the United States of America. With any luck, he understands that the election result wasn’t about spreading the wealth or turning America down a more socialist path. At a campaign event Barack Obama accused those who don’t want to ”spread the wealth” of being...
New York State and New York city are the perfect examples of how not to run a state or a city (or a nation, for that matter.) Both are facing huge budget deficits. Both have out of control spending, and both have been feeding at the Wall Street trough which has now run dry....
Dennis Kucinich questioned Neel Kashkari about the bailout. I wasn’t a fan of the bailout, so you’d think I would cheer Mr. Kucinich on. But this clip begins with “We started with the private sector and we got subprime loans.” Is he kidding? What part of “Government Sponsored Enterprise” does he not understand. Clearly...
This is a speech Ron Paul gave on the House floor before the bailout vote. It’s a bit dated, but his words should be heeded. H/T Sarber2020 Tweetvaso link
Too bad Good Morning America didn’t think to interview, or talk about, Obama’s buddy Bill Ayers before the election. Cuomo asks a few tough questions, but I wish he were a little tougher. He didn’t bring up the fact that Bill Ayers has called himself a communist. He didn’t bring up the fact that...
One of my readers has alerted me to a plan by the University of California Board of Regents to lower their admission standards. It sounds to me like a terrible idea, so liberals must be behind it. In my mind, the unintended consequence will be either the dumbing down of California’s higher education system,...
The GOP is filing federal lawsuits to overturn McCain-Feingold. It’s about time. Now that the election’s over it’s safe for Bill Ayers to come outside. Andrew Cuomo will interview him tomorrow on Good Morning America. Newsbusters wonders if it’ll be just another soft ball interview. There’s a bit of good news for Republicans. In...
I’m so happy I wasn’t the only one who noticed the way the Dow shot up after George Bush’s speech praising capitalism. Larry Kudlow noticed, too. Here’s one of several great passages from Bush: “At its most basic level, capitalism offers people the freedom to choose where they work and what they do …...
The Democrats plan to investigate George W. Bush after he leaves office. Read story. It’s almost laughable after their recent declarations about a new age of bi-partisanship. Gee, I wonder if they will investigate their role in the collapse of the mortgage industry or Chuck Schumer’s role in causing a bank to fail or Harry...
Forget Bill Clinton, John Podesta, or Rahm Emanuel. President Elect Barack Obama would be well advised to spend more time with George Bush. Nobody likes the economic situation and like terrorism you can’t point your finger at one easily identifiable culprit. Like the war on terrorism, tackling the economy is going to require some...
