Feet on the Furniture

Sunday, February 21, 2010

A reader forwarded this email that has been making the rounds of the tinfoil hat crowd:
Does this photo of President Obama in the Oval Office convey anything to you about his attitude? Would you speak with the Chief of Staff, your Chief Economic Adviser, and your Senior Adviser with your feet up on the Resolute [...]

Tight Rope

Friday, February 5, 2010

I think this comic captures the essential problem of our current economic mess. Economists pretty much agree that you need federal spending to get us out of the economic doldrums, but at the same time that deficit spending can cause more long-term problems. Not to mention that no matter what he does, Obama is going [...]

WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report) – President Barack Obama’s State of the Union address has already gotten a big thumbs-down from one key group of voters: Republicans who did not see the speech.
According to [...]

Now that we have direct evidence that Muslims don’t think America is the enemy, can we stop claiming that they are our enemy?

Eugene Robinson and Juan Cole have wickedly good rebuttals to Cheney’s nonsensical attack on Obama from Tuesday, showing how Cheney is acting like a raving lunatic. Go read them.
But one thing that Cole mentions in passing really caught my eye, and deserves further attention. Cole points out that according to anti-terrorism experts, Al Qaida is [...]

What the Center Can Hold: a Holiday Wish

Thursday, December 24, 2009

Obama is in a tough spot.
His biggest promise was to “change the tone of politics in Washington”, by seeking a return to respectful political dialog, careful deliberation rather than pandering to voters, and actual governance rather than sound bites. But in keeping his promise, he is being denounced as not being tough enough. Americans love [...]
