The Phony Horse Race Handicappers and Your Right To Know

Yesterday's primary "results" have resulted in endless blather about a GOP race that has been, in the end, entirely predictable. Romney rolls on, with little "surprises" here and there, and ZERO discussion of the issues that the USA actually faces. The Republican field has been singularly debating a rhetorical world of their own devising, without bothering to actually offer solutions or a vision for the problem that We the People actually face.

The Weekend Reading List

I’ve been laying low today, once again playing catch up with business and rest. Ah, yes rest… Something I never get enough of. Suffice to say running a small business and a blog keeps me very busy and rarely take much time for myself. That said, here’s the Weekend Reading List: The Gallup Daily shows a Clinton upswing in recent days: Clinton 46%, Obama 45%: At TaylorMarsh.com a piece by Paul Lukasiak dissecting the story by “journalist” Celeste Fremon that...

Looks like I’m not the only one tired of Keith Olbermann’s anti-Hillary rants. People are tired of DailyKos. Ya know, sometimes you wanna go where everyone knows your name and they’re always glad you came. If you’re tired of getting kicked around by former friends, you’re not alone. I’m not sure how this will all play out. I hope we can all make up and focus on the issues (like making sure votes are counted properly) rather than focusing...

The Best Guide We Have

With all the bickering about whether Hillary Clinton should stay in the race for the nomination or drop out, at least there a some pundits who are willing to compare Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton on the issues and show who the stronger policy leader is of the two. Paul Krugman reminds us today in his column ”that it’s important to take a hard look at what candidates say about policy.” He’s right. After suffering through nearly 8 years of...

It’s a Welfare State–If You’re Rich

March 19, 2008 6:00 am

Listen to conservative talk show pundits and blowhards. Listen to any of the political candidates who proudly amend their names with the phrase “conservative Republican.” One theme resonates in all of the heavy wind—keep the government out of our private lives; let business enjoy a free market economy. Not only should government regulation be minimal, they say, but we must end the “welfare state.” Of course, what they mean is don’t help the individual; help only corporations by giving...

Gearing Up for PA and NC: Rumor Has It, Edwards to Endorse Clinton Soon

March 18, 2008 8:50 am

Both the Clinton and Obama camps are gearing up for the primary in North Carolina, where “both campaigns have hired competing – and formidable – California political operatives to go mano a mano in a contest for 115 crucial delegates.”  The Clinton camp has sent in ”Averell “Ace” Smith, the tough-as-nails former opposition researcher who managed the New York senator’s winning campaigns in California and Texas.”  The latest Tarheel State polls shows Obama up by 8 to 10 points. Smith is optimistic:  ...

Financial Mess Heats Up

The financial mess that our country is in is heating up… big time. Hold on folks, it’s really going to be a rough ride: WHAT are the consequences of a world in which regulators rescue even the financial institutions whose recklessness and greed helped create the titanic credit mess we are in? Will the consequences be an even weaker currency, rampant inflation, a continuation of the slow bleed that we have witnessed at banks and brokerage firms for the...

Stop the Madness

March 13, 2008 10:24 am

Last night after watching the video of Olbermann’s special comment directed at Hillary Clinton, I watched the video below (released by Fox News) of Rev. Jeremiah Wright, who is “a member of Obama’s African American Religious Leadership Committee.” This does not serve the Obama camp well in my opinion.   Some one needs to stop the madness. Instead of railing against “racist” and “sexist” comments from campaign surrogates, we should be talking about how we can heal the divisions in America...
