ATLANTA— I’m no Congressional historian, but I have to imagine the 111th Congress will ultimately be rated among the worst in our nation’s history. And what a way to finish! Hustling to shove through another highly controversial, 1,900 page bill just ahead of the holidays. Barely able to pull together enough votes to pass it. Same story- different year. [...]

ATLANTA— Megan McArdle writing in the Atlantic has been making some very perceptive criticisms of ObamaCare over the past few months. In her latest piece, she notes that Democrats
Some Things I Hope Republicans Don’t Do in 2011

ATLANTA— I really couldn’t be more pleased with the outcome of last week’s elections, but I view 2011 with some trepidation as well. Republicans were restored to power, not because they fully convinced voters to reembrace them and their policies, but because the Democrats moved so far to the left, Republicans looked moderately acceptable by [...]
Arrogant Democrats Unwilling to Admit Terrible Policy Choices Caused Midterm Election Losses

ATLANTA – We are now five days removed from the worst Democratic rout in congressional elections since the late 1940′s and the “progressive” wing of the Democratic Party continues to refute the notion that their policy choices over the previous two years caused their massive election-day losses. Even though moderate members of their Party have been screaming this [...]

Are these people sane? ATLANTA— Jon Stewart is holding a rally on the National Mall on October 30, 2010 to “restore sanity” to American politics. It is a snide, dismissive retort to the Tea Party rallies held there in previous weeks and a general snub at the anger voiced by mainstream, conservative Americans over the past two years. There [...]
Post-Partisan Obama Says Republican Victory Will Result in “Hand-to-Hand Combat”
Posted in Current Events, Domestic Affairs, Economy, Health Care Reform, Politics, tagged Barack Obama, Democrats, Health Care, MidTerms, Post-partisan, Republicans, US economy on October 8, 2010 | 1 Comment »
In this country, we rise or fall as one nation, as one people. Let’s resist the temptation to fall back on the same partisanship and pettiness and immaturity that has poisoned our politics for so long. Let’s remember that it was a man from this state who first carried the banner of the Republican Party [...]

Posted in Current Events, Domestic Affairs, Economy, Politics, tagged Barack Obama, China, Democrats, Economic Policy, Japan, Obamanomics, RealClearMarkets, US economy on October 4, 2010 | 3 Comments »
ATLANTA – We’ve blogged before about some of the failed policy initiatives that Japan undertook during the 1990′s, in response to the collapse of their real estate and financial markets in the early part of that decade. One I was not previously aware of, however, was the manner in which the Japanese government
