44 Out Of 800???
Chris Wallace tossed out an interesting factoid on Fox News Sunday this morning… Out of 800 cabinet positions that require Senate confirmation Barack Obama has only nominated 44 and of those only 28 have been confirmed. I’m hoping I heard that wrong it strikes me as being an absurdly low number seven weeks into an […]
Confidence Inspiring: Obama Fumbled Brown Visit Because He’s Overwhelmed
Oh Lord, apparently Barack Obama and his staff didn’t fumble last week’s visit by British Prime Minister Gordon Brown out of malice… They fumbled it out of shear inexperience and/or incompetence. From the Telegraph: Sources close to the White House say Mr Obama and his staff have been “overwhelmed” by the economic meltdown and have […]
Sydney Morning Herald: Geithner’s Incompetent
I wrote earlier that I believe the Obama Administration’s wanton destruction of our economy was the result of simple inexperience or incompetence rather than malice.

Jim Cramer Responds to White House Spokesman Robert Gibbs
First it was Rush Limbaugh and then Rick Santelli now it’s Jim Cramer who seems to be at the top the White House’s “enemies list”. While I’m no fan of Jim Cramer and his often over the top rants he’s right on the mark with his criticism of Pres. Obama’s agenda: This is an agenda […]
Evan Bayh: Senate Should Reject $410 Billion Omnibus Appropriations Bill
Some of you may have noticed this page has been rather quite for the last couple of days while I’ve been working on a few things behind the scenes. Anyway let’s get back to it shall we… Democratic Senator Evan Bayh had an interesting Op Ed in yesterday’s Wall Street Journal that I’d suggest reading […]
