Here’s a great summary article by Charles Krauthammer on what’s wrong with the Senate health care reform bill, and how better to go about doing the job. Please send it out to all your friends. [ADDENDUM: Somewhat unrelated, but here’s … Continue reading →
It’s enough to make you weep. During Obama’s announcement that soon he’ll be making an announcement about the number of troops in Afghanistan, he said: After eight years ”” some of those years in which we did not have, I … Continue reading →
Nag, nag, nag, that’s all I seem to do with President Obama these days (not that he listens to me, but still). In the meantime, Michelle Obama hasn’t been on my radar screen much, although nearly a year ago I … Continue reading →
Indications are that President Obama is sliding downward in the public’s estimation. For the first time, for example, all the polls show his approval rating falling below 50% (here’s the NY Times’s spin on that). Just as significantly, all but … Continue reading →
