Our society is an undisciplined one, especially when it comes to holding one's tongue and keeping disputes private. The McChrystal flap serves as a reminder (if we needed one) that this lack of discipline extends to the military.

WASHINGTON D.C. — Republican Whip Eric Cantor (R-VA) and the House Republican Economic Recovery Working Group today announced a new round of YouCut proposals for the public to vote on. So far, more than 860,000 votes have been cast.  As they’ve done every week since the project’s launch, House Republicans will bring the winning cut to the floor next week for a vote.

The news we have been warning you about is in. Government workers on average exceed the pay scale of those in private industry. The unsustainable situation is here. It is now clear that Bill Clinton was a bit premature when he said that the “era of big government is over.” Sadly he didn’t count on [...]

The CBO says that Obama's budget plan will produce trillion dollar deficits for the next ten years.

Leftists will claim that the deficit monster can be tamed by a massive tax increase. In other words, an additional trillion dollars a year can be hoovered out of the private sector and wasted by government.

President Obama's health care reforms have already undermined one doctor/patient relationship. Barbara Gabriel who is expecting her first baby was a patient at The Woman's Group, a Tampa obstetrics and gynecology office where she had been seeing Dr. Madalyn Bulter, one of the office's founders. Dr.

Here's another indication as to just where all the money is going as our liberal kakistocracy spends us into inevitable economic collapse:

We all know Barack Obama has no inhibitions when it comes to expressing his political point of view.

This is especially apparent regarding his outrage toward the greed of Wall Street.

Since his election, he has been a rabid critic of CEOs and board members alike. None have escaped his wrath. Be they from banks, brokerages, financial consultants, or private industry, he has shown his disgust for all.

Drudge has this headline, but no link quite yet:

The government plans big revisions to historical economic data... Developing...

Well, well, well. President Obama is asking his people to revise down the economic numbers from past years so his economic numbers today don't look quite as bad as they are in reality. Because Obama predicted that the economy would begin to come out of its recession by the end of this year, he's got to deliver, especially since so many private sector economists blasted his team's predictions as pie in the sky.

Wow, this is pretty tacky. Obama charging his guests for their meals? I've never heard of such a thing.

Not all oil execs are corrupt and/or cowardly enough to play along with the war on economic freedom and prosperity being waged behind the smokescreen of the global warming farce.

House Financial Services Chairman Barney Frank is taking his TARP mandate and the Obama Corporate Management Strategy to the next logical step by proposing legislation that would heavily regulate the pay received by employees of companies that have received federal assistance.

Treasury Secretary Geithner and the Obama administration are claiming that taxpayers will be adequately protected in the new bank bailout scheme they are peddling on Capitol Hill today. However, John Carney at Clusterstock says that "the Obama administration either doesn't understand (the plan) or is lying about it." Cynics would claim that President Obama and his Treasury Secretary not only understand the plan but are lying about it also.

As far as the market is concerned, anyway, Tim Geithner's second shot at laying out a plan to rescue the nation's banking system is being received a lot better than his first. At this moment, the Dow is up over four percent.

Yesterday I wrote about the outrageous bank bailout plan that Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner will propose to Congress. As the details of the plan continue to be analyzed by folks that enjoy dissecting legislation like this it is becoming more evident that taxpayers are going to pay a heavy price for the Obama administration's scheme.

Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner's plan to fix the bank problem is coming into focus this weekend. Based on initial reports it appears the Obama administration is going to attempt a variation of the "bad bank" cum "private investor" approach that was employed during the Texas Savings and Loan meltdown twenty years ago. This is probably why Paul Krugman is so teed off today:
