Mitt discusses top reasons not to trust Mitt

Go figure. (And no, Mitt, I won’t.) Video available at Hot Air, but Allahpundit spares you from having to watch: Via RCP, the key bit comes at around 3:40. This is his whole strategy in a nutshell and I still can’t decide whether to admire him or loathe him for it. He doesn’t care if you [...]

Perry’s greatest asset

His candor, according to Mark Tapscott. I’m inclined to agree. There’s still quite the brouhaha brewing over Perry’s assertion that Social Security is a Ponzi scheme. Tapscott: Texas Gov. Rick Perry has gotten all kinds of grief from the smartest guys in the room crowd in New York and Washington for calling Social Security “a Ponzi [...]

What was that faint sucking sound, Mitt?

Oh, yeah. The last gasp of your campaign. Perry’s double-digit lead over Romney nationally widens. Furthermore, as Allahpundit illustrates, Perry leads Romney in every demographic: blue-collar, white-collar, college or no. So much for the dummy, eh? So what will poor Mitt do? Attack. Alas, the stakes are high. Allahpundit: Given the magnitude of the debt [...]

Paging Chris Christie

I know you know you can do this. And I don’t think there’s anyone else capable of selling the impossible, that is, telling people like it is. We don’t have the money for everyone’s Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, etc etc sans some serious trimming. Not just shape-shifting. Cuts. Big Axe, not X-acto. What did you tell that [...]

“Now, worse, his political organization is colluding with special-interest allies across the country to demagogue reform-minded governors who are making the tough choices”

Our President is acting against a Governor. This shouldn’t be a surprise. But I’ll be damned if I’m not in awe of the bastard. That’s John Boehner speaking of the collusion Obama’s minions are doing in Wisconsin at the President’s behest. Am I dreaming? This is insanity. Via Hot Air, Boehner’s remarks: “The President of [...]

Prosit!

Via buddy NoOneOfAnyImport, Jack Daniels explains the deficit.  Enjoy!   If you’re in need of some Saturday night entertainment, here’s Political Math’s blog and YouTube channel.

Quote of the day courtesy Paul Krugman (put down your coffee, Lara)

Seriously? Without a trace of cynicism or irony?  One depressing aspect of American politics is the susceptibility of the political and media establishment to charlatans. Ain’t that the damn truth. Oops. Krugman isn’t referring to Obama.  You might have thought, given past experience, that D.C. insiders would be on their guard against conservatives with grandiose plans. [...]

Ed Morrissey: “Obama’s days of whine and moroses” are over

Heh.  Finally. From Rasmussen, via Hot Air: For the first since President Obama took office, voters see his policies as equally to blame with those of President George W. Bush for the country’s current economic problems. A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 48% of Likely U.S. Voters now think Obama’s policies are [...]

My I ♥ Chris Christie post of the week

Seems Allahpundit shares my crush. Dude, I’m starting to think this might be the guy. A solid first term, then reelection in 2014, and suddenly the wide-open 2016 primaries are right around the corner… I said the same thing a month ago.  Get with it, man. ; )  Go watch Christie (verbally) thump a reporter.  [...]

Catch up

Unreal: Attempted car bomb in Times Square.  How long did it take Obama to make a statement after the Pantybomber in December?  Three days to tell us that Islam is the religion of peace?  Allahpundit points out the similarities to the attempted bombings in London last year and Pakistani Taliban are now claiming responsibility.  Lovely.  Poor Barack.  When it [...]
