Express Yourself, New York

Conventional wisdom says a vote for a third party candidate is a wasted vote.  The Free Agent posits that in New York this November, the only way your vote will count is if it’s cast for a third party candidate. The Free Agent probably shouldn’t say this, spokesmodel that she is for the Manhattan Libertarian […]

Obama’s Con Game: Budget Priorities Part 1

This one doesn’t come directly from President Obama (though many others have).  It comes from White House Senior Advisor, David Plouffe as reported this morning in Politico Playbook.  However, it’s consistent with the pattern of intellectual dishonesty exhibited by the President and his administration.  It’s what I call “Low Information Explanation” –  L.I.E for short.

Don’t look back in anger

“We’re mad as hell and we’re not going to take it anymore!” may become the Democrat’s battle cry for these last weeks before election, and quite possibly the worst strategic advice bandied about by political pundits. Yet it’s telling about the mindset of die-hard politicos who base their worldviews on personal sentiment rather than carefully thought out logic, particularly on economic issues. But more importantly, it may be the reason why McCain could cinch this election come November.

The Price for Change

Taxpayers beware. While it was enlightening to hear Obama articulate the modern day ideals of the Democratic party, and how it views Republican philosophy, my skepticism kicked in after hearing the word “change” uttered over a dozen times throughout.
