I'm so happy for MBB that we started this Blog at a time when economic news headlines are all the rage. Not that he would not have had a vast amount of material from which to elucidate and educate and entertain, but this has certainly kept him busy, and somewhat kept his mind off a certain Non- Quaterback in Minnesota, which in turn has kept his mind off a certain Not Going to the Playoffs for the First Time in 14 Years Team in New York. Which is not to say that he is easily distracted, but let's keep in mind it is an election year. And the Economy will obviously loom large.
Hopefully, the fear of Al Qaeda, Iran, and issues with Russia will all serve as weighty enough that Americans will realize that punishing the party in power's candidate will not help the country. It will just make half the country think they feel better.
The frightening spectre of Obama is not just his foriegn policy agenda of everyone starting with a clean slate with him. His economic policies are based on class warfare, and defining who is wealthy. At a time when Americans are hurting economically, how does talk of tax increases help the country? It will certainly help elect him, but having the truly wealthy shielding their money so that they are not liquid enough to spend it, while the rest of Americans are just trying to have enough to buy bread and milk, will certainly not stimulate the economy.
