socialism vs fascism in America
Interesting how the Right is now interpreting every little move of Obama’s as impending Socialism. During the last eight years, every little move of the Bush administration was indication of impending Fascism. The hot button of civil liberties for the left is by some measure quite equivalent to the hot button of overreaching taxation by the right.Posted by email from Joseph’s...

Innovation Economy: What If We Didn't Bail Out the... →
A very good point. Automakers have been assuming a bailout all along, just like the banks, which allowed them (and the banks) to engage in short-term gain, high risk strategies (SUVs and sub-prime lending).

Congratulations and go enjoy yourself.” LINK What is that?? Perhaps it’s out of context but all I could think of was George following this with, “You get to watch pre-release movies, get free food, have a big house for...

The Obamacons are manifestations of a deeper turmoil in the Republican rank-and-file, as the old coalition of small-government activists, social conservatives and business Republicans falls apart. They also influence opinion. This is obvious in the case of Mr Powell: Mr Obama is making liberal...
