It Depends What the Definition of a Job Is...
Friday evening the White House came out with a statement that Bill Clinton was the one who offered the "job" to Sestak. Hmmm. There are a lot of unanswered questions here.

A Disastrous Presidency
He Was Supposed to Be Competent
The spill is a disaster for the president and his political philosophy.
MAY 29, 2010
By PEGGY NOONAN
The original sin in my view is that as soon as the oil rig accident happened the president tried to maintain distance between the gusher and his presidency. He wanted people to associate the disaster with BP and not him. When your most creative thoughts in the middle of a disaster revolve around protecting your position, you are summoning trouble. When you try to dodge ownership of a problem, when you try to hide from responsibility, life will give you ownership and responsibility the hard way.... http://online.wsj.com/article/declarations.html

SEIU Terrorizes D.C. Family
What's really behind SEIU's Bank of America protests?
By Nina Easton

Last Sunday, on a peaceful, sun-crisp afternoon, our toddler finally napping upstairs, my front yard exploded with 500 screaming, placard-waving strangers on a mission to intimidate my neighbor, Greg Baer. Baer is deputy general counsel for corporate law at Bank of America (BAC, Fortune 500), a senior executive based in Washington, D.C. And that -- in the minds of the organizers at the politically influential Service Employees International Union and a Chicago outfit called National Political Action -- makes his family fair game.... http://money.cnn.com/2010/05/19/news/companies/SEIU_Bank_of_America_protest.fortune/index.htm

Bank of England Warns US
US faces same problems as Greece, says Bank of England
Last updated: May 13th, 2010
Every country around the world is in a similar position, even the United States; the world’s largest economy has a very large fiscal deficit. And one of the concerns in financial markets is clearly – how will this enormous stock of public debt be reduced over the next few years? And it’s very important that governments, both here and elsewhere, get to grips with this problem, have a clear approach and a very clear and credible approach to reducing the size of those deficits over, in our case, the lifetime of this parliament, in order to convince markets that they should be willing to continue to finance the very large sums of money that will be needed to be raised from financial markets over the next few years, at reasonable interest rates.... http://blogs.telegraph.co.uk/finance/edmundconway/100005657/us-faces-same-problems-as-greece-says-bank-of-england/

Cut Spending Today To Save Tomorrow
A Commentary By Tony Blankley
Wednesday, May 12, 2010
In the face of financial ruin of the nation, it was unconscionable to pass a new health entitlement that almost all Americans know will add trillions to the debt. Next year, as Mr. Obama almost certainly will call for a new value-added tax to do the "responsible thing" to reduce the deficits he and Congress have created, it will be equally unconscionable to support such a tax. The only solution to the debt and deficit that will not kill economic growth is to cut spending, not raise taxes.... http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/political_commentary/commentary_by_tony_blankley/cut_spending_today_to_save_tomorrow

The amount of money involved in carbon trading is huge and the temptations vast. While our Congress demagogues about banks and their "complex financial instruments," they are simple compared to cap-and-trade, which as we have noted involves essentially the buying and selling of air.

Uncontrolled borders and Washington's lack of self-control.
The American people fear they are losing their place and authority in the daily, unwinding drama of American history. They feel increasingly alienated from their government.

If our leaders were farsighted not only for themselves but for the country, they would fix the border.... http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748704302304575214613784530750.html?mod=WSJ_hpp_sections_opinion
