Deer in the Headlights

We’ve elected the wrong man. I’m not saying McCain would’ve been any better, but years of battle would have prepared whomever we elected to this mess. As things are, Obama is getting the education of his life and swamped with lots of giant chickens coming home to roost.

A lesson I have learned reading [...]

Mr. President

What Obama Must Do

From Paul Krugman at Rolling Stone:

The U.S. economy needs to add more than a million jobs a year just to keep up with a growing population. Even before the crisis, job growth under Bush averaged only 800,000 a year – and over the past year, instead of gaining a million-plus jobs, we lost 2 [...]

Pres. Obama’s Prayer

Pres. Obama Leads From the Front

Barack Obama may be a great man, but the reality is mediocrity suffices when standing in the anemic shadows of Bushes II and III. A willingness to visit Kabul and speak with Karzai satisfies McCain‘s foolish objections and begins a dialogue totally mismanaged by Rice and her handlers.

From Fareed Zakaria at Newsweek:
