It?s About Time: State Governments Might Need To Lay People Off

July 31st, 2008 · No Comments

I won’t hold my breath on them actually do it though!  Government seems to be the only sector that never seems to lay people off, they usually just freeze hiring.  Let’s take a look at a few things that jump out:

No mention of cutting services to illegals even though most of the cities listed are [...]

NYT?s Scold McCain For Negative Campaigning

July 30th, 2008 · No Comments

Really?
In recent weeks, Mr. McCain has been waving the flag of fear (Senator Barack Obama wants to “lose” in Iraq), and issuing attacks that are sophomoric (suggesting that Mr. Obama is a socialist) and false (the presumptive Democratic nominee turned his back on wounded soldiers).
Follow the links, they speak for themselves!

Flawed Mortgage Fix: Banks will accelerate foreclosures in order to take advantage of the government’s handout. By intervening in the market, the government, as usual, is going to make matters a whole lot worse, not better.

Not In Our Big Tent: ?Let?s give “Blue Dogs” the boot — Pushing conservative Democrats out of Congress could help the party stand up to the GOP?

July 29th, 2008 · No Comments

Oy
As proved by the 2006 midterm elections — which the Democrats dominated in a historically lopsided manner — mindlessly electing more Democrats to Congress will not improve anything. Such uncritical support for the party is actually likely to have the opposite effect.
…
At minimum, two steps are required to begin to influence Democratic leaders to [...]

?He looked like a man in a hurry,? a source close to Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki said last week. ?He was not interested in what we had to say.?

Say it ain’t so!  What else?
“He gave us the impression that the last thing he wanted was for Iraq to look anything like a success for the United States,” a senior Iraqi official told me. “As far as he is concerned, this is Bush’s war and must end in lack of success, if not actual [...]

Pelosi And Democrats Will Not Allow Drilling

Her words, not mine:
“I’m trying to save the planet; I’m trying to save the planet,” she says impatiently when questioned. “I will not have this debate trivialized by their excuse for their failed policy.”
