Predictions are hard....

This makes a lot of sense, as a description of why the present government budget is a bad idea. At least, I thought it was, until the last paragraph, when the author (referring to himself in the third person) says:
The abject moral failure of the new team to identify much less to propose a solution to the End Game is extremely disturbing to the present author. Despite his initial support of President Obama, he increasingly wonders whether we have the right team in place.

I guess maybe the third person thing should have clued me in.....

If the author couldn't see through Obama (who is very plain about what he is), why should I trust his analysis now?

Chicago thugs in the White House

Yeah, that's not good......President Unicorn, the agent of hopeychangey, OMMPBUH*, is apparently using his minions to strong arm Chrysler creditors into moving down the debt food chain.

Governor Doubtfire did the same thing here in Arizona when it came to renaming a mountain after Lori Piestawa.

The big question is: why is he so interested in the capital structure of Chrysler, when he is manifestly not a capitalist?

Biden Gaffe

By now, most everyone has heard the latest Bidenism--that he'd tell people not to fly or ride the subway because of the risk of swine flu.

The Robert Gibbs response was priceless--- "I think the vice president misrepresented what the vice president wanted to say," Gibbs went on to explain that what Joey MEANT was to stay off trains/planes IF YOU HAVE THE FLU. Which is not even remotely what he said. Even Jake Tapper called him on it.

Frankly, I wonder why Gibbs didn't just say, "What the vice president MEANT to say was--I love pink ponies! And unicorns! yeah, pink ponies and unicorns--that's it."

I guess the larger question is why is Joe Biden regard any differently than a crazy old uncle who's never been right since being kicked in the head by a mule? "Biden gaffe" gets over 400K hits on google. Remember, he's already on record praising his boss for being "the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy" presumably in contrast to those gangstas on BET.

And conservatives are the backward and racists ones. Riiiiiiight.

Best comment of all so far: "They told me that if I voted for McCain we'd have a Vice President who was a moron... and they were right!"
