Save the half trill’ and get off my back, Mr. President.
Wax eloquent all you want about small business, Mr. President. The truth is that if I weren’t already in business, I’m not sure how enthused I’d be about starting.

Be yourself, Rick. You’re on solid ground.
Gov. Perry stumbled all over himself when the question of in-state tuition for the children of illegal aliens was raised in the GOP presidential debate last week. He needn’t have. He stands on solid ground and should say so.
Cuban on taxes. Wrong, wrong, wrong!
Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban caused a stir earlier this week on his blog. He opined that paying taxes is, “the most patriotic thing you can do.”
What if a candidate told the truth?
Members of the ruling class from both sides of the aisle, together with various media elites, are all over Rick Perry for his comments regarding Social Security. Their criticism of Perry is condescending in its assumption that the American people can’t handle the truth.
The triumph of ideology over experience.
The countdown has begun toward President Obama’s much-anticipated “major policy statement” on jobs. If you watch it, keep a company called Solyndra in mind.

The useful Tea Party.
Administration apologists are blaming the Tea Party for the recent downgrade of U.S. debt by Standard & Poor’s. I disagree. I think the Tea Party forced a useful debate exactly as the founders would have hoped.
The markets know that the piper must be paid.
The piper has arrived in Europe, seeking to be paid for 60 years of social entitlement spending. Everyone knows that the piper’s next stop is the United States.
If it doesn’t hurt, it’s not a cut.
Following 9/11Continental Airlines was in nowhere near the financial trouble the U.S. government is in now. Yet Continental’s CEO made dramatic cuts to his company’s expenses to ensure economic survival. No one in Washington is making any such proposal for the United States.
Where are the cuts?
Aside from throwing out a number ending in the word, “trillion,” what specific spending cuts are any of Obama, Boehner, Reid, the “Gang of Six” or anyone else proposing? When does anyone propose the the U.S. actually spend less money than it is currently spending?
