Fed's Massive Stimulus Had Little Impact: Greenspan - CNBC

What can you expect for a measly $1 trillion?

Articles: American Leftism: An Infantile Disorder: "During the terrible winter of 1918 in St. Petersburg, as the population of the city starved and froze, dying by the thousands, Larissa Reissner, the Madame Defarge of the Bolshevik Revolution, took champagne baths; did she believe that such an extravagance marred the purity of her revolutionary robes? To the contrary: 'That's what we fought for, didn't we?' she opined with touching candor. Michelle Obama, who combines an awful taste in clothes with the enormousness and extreme costliness of her wardrobe, would doubtless agree with the Russian revolutionary if she had an inkling of her existence."

Another great shot!

Articles: American Leftism: An Infantile Disorder: "So confident were they that when the stimulus failed to revive the economy, they refused to believe the bad news. To own up to their defeat would have been tantamount to a betrayal of their cherished creed and, worse still, an acknowledgement that their adversaries, those benighted 'knuckle-draggers,' were right -- an intolerable affront to their self-esteem. And so, even in the teeth of a looming electoral disaster, they continue talking of more of the same: more Keynesian stimulus, more money-printing, more 'greening' of the economy, more taxes. In short, they are prepared to double down on the failed plan which works like a charm in a progressive's dream, but never in the real world."

Excellent diagnosis.

Michelle Malkin » AmeriCorps’s favorite scandal-plagued mayor: Friend of the Obamas Kevin Johnson

Michelle Malkin » AmeriCorps’s favorite scandal-plagued mayor: Friend of the Obamas Kevin Johnson: "Even more troubling, Johnson continues to reap government tax dollars for youth programs while he remains dogged by questions about his predatory behavior with teenage girls. A little-noticed section of the joint November 2009 report by GOP Sen. Charles Grassley and GOP Rep. Darrell Issa on Walpin’s firing revealed that the AmeriCorps inspector general’s investigator “became aware of allegations of inappropriate contact between Johnson and three female St. HOPE students.” Their stories mirror a similar incident involving Johnson (then 29 and playing for the Phoenix Suns) and a 16-year-old girl dating back to 1995."

Pays to be a corruptocrat.

NYT hates natural gas because it will deliver what the environmentalists want -- cheap, clean energy -- thus killing their dreams of windmills and solar panels and the "green jobs revolution".
