Less ‘Representative’, More ‘Democracy’
by Smitty Jerry Wilson over at Goldfish and Clowns offers up a fine post that is worth your time in full, but here is a taste (emphasis mine): Economically, there will continue to be no sense of urgency until either Obamacare’s reality in the form of slashed Medicare coverages starts adversely affecting a multitude of […]
Paragraph 11 Explains Petraeus Departure
by Smitty In case anybody wondered why David Petraeus ejected: “I wanted him to continue,” she said. “He was good, he loved the work, and he had a command of intelligence issues second to none.” Feinstein added that Petraeus will no longer be required to testify at hearings next week related to the attack on […]
I Earned Peanuts For Pulling An 18-Hour Day On Tuesday
