NYT: Indiana Becomes ‘Right to Work http://mobile.nytimes.com/2012/02/02/us/indiana-becomes-right-to-work-state.xml “Seven years of evidence and experience ultimately demonstrated that Indiana did need a right to work law to capture jobs for which, despite our highly rated business climate, we are not currently being considered,” Mr. Daniels said in a statement that his office released after he signed the [...]
Romney: Any Concern By Anyone For Income Inequality Is ‘About Envy’
LAUER: When you said that we already have a leader who divides us with the bitter politics of envy, I’m curious about the word ‘envy.’ Did you suggest that anyone who questions the policies and practices of Wall Street and financial institutions, anyone who has questions about the distribution of wealth and power in this [...]
The Short History of False Rumors and Those Who Believe Them
This little lie has been fun to watch worm it’s way around the world. I’ve seen this happen before, and since I’m sure it will happen again, I’d like to point out exactly how this stuff happens, and what exactly it results in (well, we saw that last Tuesday, but I digress a wee bit early). [...]
What “The Left” Knows for sure about the Tea Party
There’s been a bit of debate recently about the Tea Party is, and what it stands for. Having watched the movement saddle up its hover-round from the get-go, I’ve got a solid grasp on this thing, and what it is doing. But that doesn’t stop News Corp from telling me I don’t. Here’s the latest [...]
Taking on the Myths of the RWEC and the Derp of its Citizens
So we’re going to bust a few RWEC* myths real quick-like. First up, via Krugman and the NYT… Consider, in particular, one fact that might surprise you: The total number of government workers in America has been falling, not rising, under Mr. Obama. A small increase in federal employment was swamped by sharp declines at [...]
This is what you get when you hire the right guy
Here’s the news from the capital… Oct. 7 (Bloomberg) — President Barack Obama won’t sign legislation that critics said would have eased the way for banks to process home foreclosures, his spokesman said. The bill would have required courts to recognize notarizations across state lines, including electronic signatures. White House press secretary Robert Gibbs said [...]
Taibbi Nails the Baggers
This is as solid a summation as I’ve seen. The individuals in the Tea Party may come from very different walks of life, but most of them have a few things in common. After nearly a year of talking with Tea Party members from Nevada to New Jersey, I can count on one hand the [...]
How Crazy Have We Become When…
…George W. Bush comes across as a voice of reason (or when viewed through the skewed prism of Election 2010, a terrorist sympathizer). Thank you all very much for your hospitality. We’ve just had a wide-ranging discussion on the matter at hand. Like the good folks standing with me, the American people were appalled and [...]
NYC mosque will be election issue, Republican predicts
Of course it will be. The R’s ran on 9/11-9/11-9/11 to great effect in 2004. Why not try again in 2010? Between this, immigration, and Obama, the ‘Brown Scare’ wins the Republican motivate-the-base campaign theme trifecta. http://www.usatoday.com/news/washington/2010-08-16-mosque16_ST_N.htm?csp=hf – WASHINGTON — The top Republican in charge of Senate campaigns said Sunday that President Obama’s support of [...]
