Obama the Fallible
Questions about Obama's "electability" never fail to raise our hackles and we go beserk in his defense. We feel an intense connection to his person and his message and disagree viscerally with his critics. I want to blog this, however,...more »

Undercover at Camp Hillary
I saw a link to this article from Obama's Watchdogs' site about a reporter going undercover as a campaign volunteer in Philly. I'm convinced she'll move on to conquer mountains with such awe-inspiring presence, deft maneuvring, uplifting messages, sweeping organizational...more »

Don't just do something, sit there!
Yes, you. You who have done the math. You who have read the polls. You who have crowed about Hillary's debt and her money drying up. You who believe that no one dares overturn the electoral process. You who believe...more »

The Tao of Obama
He must have known it was a trap. Hillary grinning like a Chelsire cat and looking like she knows what ordeals lie ahead, and George Stephanopoulus, the indentured Bill Clinton apparatchik and media hitman, flanking his vision. The ratings have...more »

This is her Plab B of course. Obama, DON'T, please don't take in this Trojan Horse for the Establishment. You've seen what she is capable of during the entire election cycle. She'll just hijack the agenda anywhere she can get near the WH!

Nice post, but I doubt that Hillary is going to concede....

This Chicken Little feels a little better today, but I won't count the Clintons out yet. It ain't over till the pantsuit lady sings.

The income tax returns that the SPOUSES are required to file is far more obtuse than the candidates themselves.
There is the legality of the off-shore tax haven status of the Yucaipa business interest - is that legal?? Does it circumvent the IRS?
What we should be concerned about is if the Clintons have been *bought*, or can be bought.
This will be spalshed all over the Republican ads this Fall should Hillary wins the nomination, so it's really no laughing matter.

It isn't that Obama doesn't care about fuel costs, he voted for it before in Illinois, and witnessed that the gas prices didn't go down as the demand went up, and the prices rose anyway. So the Oil companies got the windfall, pocketing the profits from the steep rise in price, and consumers still paid higher prices.
The long-term strategy is of course to reduce dependence on this particular form of energy, and to invest in viable alternatives to make energy affordable and clean.
The only candidate out of the 3 who is genuinely on *our* side, and not the Washington and Wall St Establishment side is Obama. That is the only reason to vote for him. They're both DEEP in the pockets of the Lobbyists, MNCs, Bankers, etc.
Maybe I'm wrong, and he'll prove to be an insider once in office, but there's no choice now, we've got to HOPE. That's what it means, HOPE. Hope that there is someone who will take our side as we face a more shaky and uncertain future, someone who will watch out for our interest for a change.

Thank you Kathleen Hussein. Must be the latte-addled brains working out the math...:) Seriously, I owe this understanding to the Ron Paul crowd, conservatives who are appalled at the bankers-Fed-government free-for-all at the expense of the ordinary Joes. They never teach this in school, except perhaps under Marxism. Yet there is a process of "socialization" of the economic catastrophes going on, eg. Bear Stearns bailed out by the Fed, privatize profits (to the bankers), nationalize loss (to the people).

What Hillary and her supporters fail to understand is that the electorate has shifted AGAINST old politics. They are sick and tired of the voter-pleasing tax cuts that come back to bite them in the form of double digit inflation, the other form of taxation that really rips into the poor and the middle-class.
When revenue cannot meet government expenditure, there is one simple way for the government to get the paper money it needs, it CONJURES them out of thin air. We find more dollars chasing the same amount of goods and services, i.e. INFLATION, and most of us are no wiser.
What's so pernicious about Inflation as Tax is that it punishes the poorest the most, whereas progressive income and capital gains tax scales the burden accordingly.
Hillary, your game is up!
