Obama and the Global Competitiveness Index

September 5th, 2012 | No Comments

More change you can believe in: The USA has not only not remained the #1 competitive economy on Earth under Obama, it’s dropped every single year he’s been in office. The reasons they cite are policies. Combative regulations, taxation, uncertainty. Those aren’t issues he inherited from Bush. Those are decisions he’s made. The world’s largest [...]

Obama’s EEOC hearts felons

April 30th, 2012 | No Comments

Got this little tidbit from the EEOC this morning at work. New guidelines could keep employers from digging into someone’s past. The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission is changing the way companies use criminal background checks to weed out new hires. The change comes as most employers are increasing their use of background checks to find [...]

Andrew Breitbart has died

March 1st, 2012 | No Comments

Andrew Breitbart died today.  For those of you who don’t know who Breitbart was, just Google the guy.  He was a lightning rod for everyone not ultra-conservative.  Liberals absolutely hated the guy.  Not disliked, but hated him.  They literally foamed at the mouth at the mere mention of his name.  I’m not going to debate [...]

January 25th, 2012 | No Comments

That’s the headline.  That’s pretty much the meat of the story.  Timothy Geithner thinks Obama won’t re-appoint him. I think he’s giving Obama too much credit. I don’t think Obama could care less whether he stays or goes.  The position is moot under Obama. Obama has one economic philosophy, tax the rich and give it [...]

President Obama goes after greedy university administrators

October 27th, 2011 | No Comments

Yeah!  Tell me another one!  Whew.  OK.  Let’s get serious.  Obama, as usual, is attacking the concept of personal responsibility.  The concept that people willingly and knowingly incurred a debt is meaningless to Obama.  Completely.  Under his watch, the student loan program has been removed from the private sector and made federal  ( that’s called [...]
