Larry Summers wrote a 57 page memo to then President-elect Obama on the stimulus package in December of 2008 which James Pethokoukis pointed out is very revealing. Among other things, it shows that the stimulus was about implementing Obama’s agenda and they knew that running up the deficit was a dangerous course. 1. The...
Following the happenings in Washington, DC is like watching the movie “Groundhog Day,” except there’s nothing funny about DC. Expect to hear more bitterly partisan speeches from President Obama as Congress fights yesterday’s battles again, including extending the payroll tax holiday and how to pay for it. The year’s first significant order of business,...
Government Motors is recalling thousands of Chevy Volts because the batteries pose a fire hazard. I’m so glad our hard earned tax dollars continue to be wasted on these cars. GM will ask Volt owners to return the cars to dealers for structural modifications, said the person, who did not want to be identified...
Here’s news that I’m sure will leave you shocked – the Government Motors’ “green” car, the Chevy Volt, did not reach sales targets. Gee, I can’t imagine why. Maybe if they came with industrial sized fire extinguishers they’d be more popular. The company reported today that it sold 7,671 Chevy Volts in 2011, fewer...
There is however, a segment of society that fails to get the recognition they deserve - the zealous government employee. I’m not talking about the millions of hard working government employees that go to work everyday and make twice what the private sector makes...
A business owner comments on the temporary payroll tax cut. “This really is a ridiculous way to run a country, particularly a country with the world’s largest economy. Frankly, I hope the House sticks to its guns and forces you senators to come back and pass the extension for all of 2012, if an...
Does this guy even realize that this will do to the Nation? The approval is expected to go through without a challenge, given that Congress is in recess until later in January and the request is in line with an agreement to keep the U.S. government funded into 2013. The debt is projected to...
The following is a guest post by Joseph Hall. *** Obamacare is DOA, How Medicare & Medicaid Scams Will Break the Plan While Obama presses his Affordable Care Plan, hucksters are already destroying the government led insurance plans known as Medicare and Medicaid. The Democratic Party is simply inept at controlling for fraud. While...
The Senate passed a two month extension of the payroll tax cut and President Obama was ready to sign the legislation and rush off to Hawaii for an extended vacation. House Republicans said “not so fast” and put the brakes on the plan. It turns out, that was probably a good thing, because payroll...
It is time for my generation to admit we have been ripped off for every cent ever extorted from us for Social Security, and the only way we can receive benefits is to have the government extort it from our children and give it to us.
What’s the first thing that comes to mind when you hear about a Muslim madman gunning down US troops in cold blood? If you’re a member of the Obama administration, it’s “workplace violence.” Yes, that’s right. The administration has classified the massacre at Ft. Hood as an act of workplace violence, as if Nidal...
Did the government and Chevrolet (sorry for repeating myself) intentionally withhold information from the public regarding the safety issues with the Chevy Volt? That’s what it’s beginning to look like. Seeing that the government is so heavily invested in the company, and they’ve been pushing the “green” cars, it only makes sense that they would...
I should have known better than to take a few hours on a Friday evening to get things done around the house. Look what I almost missed – another document dump! Late this afternoon the Justice Department sent over 1,400 emails and other documents relating to Operation Fast and Furious to Congress. Oh, and...
