Obama Recognizes He Can’t Control Economy, Offers Placebo.
2009-03-13 14:14:00 I tossed this out at Q&O, almost as a throwaway. But the more I consider things, I wonder if I’ve not hit on something central. I’ve cleaned it up here a bit, since it was originally composed and posted on my Palm Treo. The topic is the economy and what we’re seeing out of the White House just now. The indecision we see from Obama and Gethner just now is driven ask much as anything by being stunned that their plans didn’t work. They have always figured onthe standard set of leftist ‘if/then’ being the solution for any problem they might face. What we are seeing now, is shock that not only did liberalism not solve the issue, it’s made things worse. This confusion is then compounded by voter anger, even among their supporters. Those are all huge hurdles to get over before they can take other action. The delay at the moment is them, trying to come up with a new plan… One that will actually work and that doesn’t run afoul of their liberal mindset... More About: Economy , Placebo , Offers , Control
Barack Obama’s Politics of Distractions
2009-03-13 13:46:00 It has become quite obvious why Barack Obama has never released his college transcripts. Obama is dumber than a hod of bricks, Steven Thomma, McClatchy Newspapers: WASHINGTON - The deepening recession is taking a slight toll on President Barack Obama’s standing, but he’s still twice as popular as archnemesis Rush Limbaugh, according to a new McClatchy-Ipsos poll. Archnemesis? Obama has the wrong target. Limbaugh is not the one trying to develop nuclear weapons and threating to wipe out Israel. That would be one Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. Limbaugh isn’t the one attacking our Navy on the high seas. That would be China. Lastly, Limbaugh is not the one that tanking the United States economy. That would be the one himself. Karl Rove in the Wall Street Journal: Presidents throughout history have kept lists of political foes. But the Obama White House is the first I am aware of to pick targets based on polls.

Who is Defending Chris Dodd?
2009-03-12 18:35:00 Mark Hemingway at The Corner: I was perusing an old column by Kevin Rennie, the former Connecticut state legislator that broke the cottage story, and noticed this interesting tidbit: During the fourth quarter of 2008, Dodd ’s Senate re-election campaign — Friends of Chris Dodd, indeed — paid $65,000 in legal fees to the firm Perkins Coie. So far, Dodd has spent more than $120,000 of campaign funds on his defense. The law firm is the single largest expense of his re-election campaign and it is for a personal matter. From October through December of last year, Dodd’s re-election campaign spent nearly a quarter of what it raised in that period on legal fees. Rennie notes that a large chunk of those campaign funds came from banking interests. So I don’t know about you, but I find it awfully reassuring that in the middle of a major economic crisis and the accompanying government bank bailouts, the head of the Senate Banking Committee is indebted to bank lobbies to p...

The Right Noises From NY GOP, But We’ve Heard This Before
2009-03-12 16:09:00 Somehow, I ended up on the mailing list of the New York GOP. Found this in my mail last night: “Since its founding, the Republican Party has stood for the time honored values and ideals of opportunity, personal responsibility, accountability and hope,” said Chairman Mondello. “Our nation has become the greatest society in history, because we have supported and rewarded individual energy and initiative, thereby allowing each individual to achieve the highest possible level of success and enriching their community and the entire nation. For our country and party to remain vibrant, we must abide by these core principles.” Chairman Mondello also announced that he will be soliciting names of county chairs to serve on a Platform Committee at the next New York GOP Executive Committee meeting. The actived Platform Committee will serve to receive and initiate suggestions to ensure the statement of principles continues to remain growing and vibrant along with the party. The Platform...
Hersh: Cheney Ran a Secret Assassination Ring? Oh, Please.
2009-03-12 15:41:00 James Joyner at OTB: The big story at memeorandum is a report by MinnPost’s Eric Black, passed on by Raw Story’s Muriel Kane, that Dick Cheney ran a super secret assassination ring out of his office. Not surprisingly, perhaps, most bloggers on the Right, such as Jules Crittenden and Dan Collins, think Hersh is crazy as a loon while most on the Left, like Marcy Wheeler, Kathy Kattenberg, and “Jill Hussein C.” believe all this is not only plausible but likely. Oh, please. Hersh is a loon. Always has been. This point is so well known it amazes me anyone’s willing to sign his paychecks anymore. Let’s get to it: Hersh pointing to someone who was actually assassinated would be helpful. Does anyone think that if the left actually had anything of the sort, we’d not have heard all of this already, in wall to wall mode on CNN and MSNBC? We have not.

Barack Obama Asks for Our Trust

Eric Cantor: Mrs. Pelosi has Failed
2009-03-12 12:40:00 Statement from House Republican Whip, Eric Cantor : “Just three weeks after President Obama signed his ‘stimulus’ bill into law, Congressional Democrats are already conceding that it will fail to achieve its objective. As the Speaker knows, the only reason to craft a second stimulus bill would be if the first one failed. Every Republican in the House voted against the first stimulus bill because we believed that Congress could do better, and we had a plan to achieve that goal. America does not need another massive spending bill, what we need is to create jobs. “Republicans developed an innovative plan to preserve, protect, and create twice as many jobs as the bill that Speaker Pelosi rushed to the floor last month. If Democrats believe that their stimulus bill has fallen short, then we should work together on the Republican Economic Recovery Act, which would revitalize struggling small businesses, help middle-class families, and immediately rekindle America’...
Scarlet Obama
2009-03-12 11:01:00 Ed Mrrrissey, Hot Air, on Scarlet Obama , “Gone With The Change:” I’ll think about it tomorrow. After all, tomorrow is another day. The final couplet from Gone with the Wind offers an instructive look at the approach of President Barack Obama on pork. He spent two years railing about special interests, lobbyist influence, and pork-barrel spending in Washington, and insisted that it took an outsider to bring Hope and Change to the federal government. Instead of taking a stand, however, Obama allowed Congress to roll him for thousands of earmarks worth billions of dollars to lobbyists and special interests. An appropriate photo manipulation would be amusing. There is a pattern with BO. He gives a great speech, but his actions seldom match his words. Pay little attention to what BO says. Pay attention to what he does. What ever it takes to stand up to Mrs. Pelosi and Dirty Harry Reid on earmarks, BO simply does not have it. BitsBlog Tags: special in...

BO Needs to Lead, Follow Or Get Out of the Way
2009-03-07 13:04:00 How clueless is the rookie President Barack Obama? Enough that Paul Krugman and Charles Krauthammer are on the same page, first Krugman: Many analysts agree. But among people I talk to there’s a growing sense of frustration, even panic, over Mr. Obama’s failure to match his words with deeds. The reality is that when it comes to dealing with the banks, the Obama administration is dithering. Policy is stuck in a holding pattern.ame wavelengthj, And second Krauthammer: And yet with our financial house on fire, Obama makes clear both in his speech and his budget that the essence of his presidency will be the transformation of health care, education and energy. Four months after winning the election, six weeks after his swearing-in, Obama has yet to unveil a plan to deal with the banking crisis.

But for everyone, frankly, it’s not necessarily a right. Wamp’s statement of fact upset one Ryan Powers: Aside from the fact that healthcare for Americans cannot - from an economic or a humanitarian stand point - be viewed as a privilege, Wamp is misrepresenting exactly why so many Americans lack coverage So sorry to inform you Ryan, but Congressman Wamp is right, and you are dead wrong.

Foreign Minister Franco Frattini said Thursday that Italy had withdrawn its delegation from the negotiations ahead of the so-called Durban II conference due to “aggressive and anti-Semitic statements” in the draft of the event’s final document. Frattini made the comments in Brussels, where he attended a NATO meeting. Ministry Spokesman Maurizio Massari said Rome would not participate in the conference unless the document is changed.

Mrs. Pelosi was set to give District of Columbia residents representation in the House, albeit simply unconstitutional. Chad Pergram and Mosheh Oinounou, Fox New : The House Democratic leadership Tuesday decided to delay a plan to grant a seat in the House to the District of Columbia. Since it is not a state, Washington, D.C., does not get a vote in Congress. The Senate approved a similar bill to give the District voting representation. And approval in the House seemed all but assured. But an amendment attached to the Senate version of the legislation by Sen. John Ensign, R-Nev., created problems in the House.

Message to Eric Cantor And Michael Steele
2009-03-03 15:31:00 I’ve been watching this grudge match between Michael Steele and the grass roots, including Rush Limbaugh, with a jaundiced eye. I’ve seen this developing before, and frankly I see it as a part of the anti-Republican-grassroots efforts I’ve commented on in other forms and other forums. It’s why I’ve not commented on it here before now. Steele has since apologized for his comments, and that’s a start. But it’s not nearly the whole thing. It’s interesting; Just today, I posted an article over at Pajamas Media as regards a rift between the grass roots and the Republican establishment. It certainly appears to me that the takeaway from this Steele v Limbaugh exchange, whatever else might be said, is that Limbaugh is not as the Democrats have been trying to cast him, a part of the Republican leadership. He is, in fact, part of the much Republican maligned grassroots, albeit one of the more visible members. Why would the Democrats tr... More About: Message , Michael Steele , Cantor
