Obamanomics: Failure Is The New Success

by Smitty Heritage has a piece entitled: ‘Why Obamanomics Has Failed – Annotated’. Questions beginning with ‘Why’ being quite a Smitty-magnet, let’s see what these esteemed think-tankers are swimming in. They pick up with Meltzer at the WSJ: ‘Why Obamanomics Has Failed’. RTWT, but I’ll summarize here. . . .they want new stimulus measures—which is […]

Gibbs Removes Any Shred Of Doubt That He Is A Propaganda Tool

by Smitty (via Blogprof) Now, if Gibbs is such a buffoon that he (a) didn’t watch Brown directly, and instead (b) repeated what a subordinate related, then (c) we should hear of someone getting fired over this. Listen, Gibbs, the White House has a tremendous credibility deficit as it is. Shameful performances such as this […]

Kagan Fight Could Go Late Tonight; UPDATE: Video of ACOG Testimony; UPDATE II: Kagan Lobbied AMA, Too UPDATE III: ‘Late’? Recessed at 5:35

UPDATE 5:45 p.m. ET: Yeah. Three days, very few tough questions, and Pat Leahy closed by congratulating her that this would likely be the last time she ever had to testify. But is it really?

by Smitty My highly important question was addressed starting at 10:10. PJTV continues its gradual world conquest. Related, via Insty: Time to shut down the US Federal Reserve? When someone says, as Evans-Pritchard quotes, and I gently VodkaPundit-ize. . . “Economics is hahrd. Really hahrd. You just won’t believe how vastly hugely mind-boggingly hahrd it […]

Elena Kagan, M.D.

Excuse me if  I fail to see how a Harvard Law diploma qualifies Elena Kagan to draft a medical paper on partial-birth abortion: It seems that the most important statement in the famous position paper of the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists—a 1996 document that was central to the case of partial-birth-abortion defenders for the subsequent decade […]

Boehner Clings To The New Deal

by Smitty (via Hot Air) My headline is slightly unfair. I should credit Boehner for courageously opening the discussion on managing the sacred cow, rather than having it meander through our future, spreading cowflop in all directions. However, let’s talk butchery. As the bovine flop of FDR’s New Deal, combined with LBJ’s (not so) Great […]
