The President, at a White House dinner last Friday to observe the beginning of Ramadan, came out forcefully in favor of the Ground Zero Mosque. In one fell swoop, he elevated what for weeks Robert Gibbs had been calling a local zoning issue to a national picking of the scab that has yet (and may [...]
I’ve read that US companies (banks among them) are hoarding cash to the tune of 1.8 to 2.5 trillion dollars. The percentage of cash as it relates to a firm’s total assets is rising and the velocity of money (the number of times, for example, the same dollar changes hands) is also declining.

Here’s what the country gets: After a couple minutes of small talk and a shout out to someone named Dr. Joe Medicine Crow, the president gets [...]
It appears a suicide may be televised on C-Span today. The House is probably going to vote on Obamacare this afternoon. If the resolution is passed, you’ll get to see the Democratic Party, and probably the president, commit political suicide on your TV. Even now, Democrats are trying to whip up enough voted to get [...]
