They'd be better off if Obama were just honest with them: Free trade, outsourcing, and Swiss bank accounts aren't going anywhere, regardless of who is elected in November and sworn in next year. In America, the left has no champion on these issues. Obama would be within his rights to claim that he has a plan to marginally reduce outsourcing, but that plan is premised on the notion that bad policy presently creates an incentive for companies to shift their labor abroad; it's therefore at od...

Well! Todd part of your statement is on point, but you tell me how can this President get thing rolling without the help of the Congress ,they have been busy doing nothing also ,blocking his every move like we are watching a giant "CHESS GAME" checkmate!

All the talk about race -- on both sides -- is preposterous and a smokescreen.

"72% of children in the Black community are born to unwed mothers. The Black American drop-out rate from high school is at 40%, and incarceration among Black American males is at almost 10%." The President has no control over whether or not people choose to a) marry their partners. b) finish high-school. c) commit crimes (presuming that's why these people are in jail). With a maximum of 8 years in office, even if he magically made all of those POOR C... [ More ]
