The Empty Suit Does It Again

SEE HERE So the NIC is going to make another big speech. And, gee whiz, it just happens to be scheduled for the exact time of a GOP presidential candidates debate in California. Fancy that! And he wants it to be a joint session of Congress, kind of like a State of the Union address. Thinks well of himself doesn't he? With teleprompters in place we can expect to hear about more Keynesianism, more spending, calls for sacrifice, extended jobless benefits as he continues to take actions which sow uncertainty and keep the economy in a decidedly uncertain and concerned state. I'll certainly be impressed if he says something substantive. But I won't be watching. I think curling up with a good book is likely far more rewarding. I've never yet heard this man say anything very much worth listening to. We ought to implement an "I" counter so that we get a running count on the TV set as he speaks. That might actually increase the audience. COMMENTARY and then there's BOEHNER's REQUEST and FIVE REASONS why it was a stupid move by Obama.
