It’s pretty obvious to anyone with the slightest grasp of economics that this administration has been a disaster on almost every front.

A National Wall Of Shame
It’s past time for one. It would have to be pretty big, though, after the past few decades. It would include not just Schumer, but Dodd and Frank, and Corzine.
I’d also like to bring back the stocks. Pelting would be allowed, as long as it was restricted to rotten fruit and eggs.
Ryan’s Plan
…against the team with no plan. I recall when Turbotax Timmy Geithner said, “…we don’t have a plan, but we know we don’t like yours.”
We’ll see how trying to beat something with nuthin’ works out for them this fall.
Paul Ryan, Extremist (Part II)
I’m just guessing that this gang will not turn out to be Tea Partiers. In fact, I’ll bet there will be ties to both the Democrat Party and Occupy. There will be arrest records, after all.
A Classic Example Of Economic Ignorance
Is it really surprising that when you underprice a commodity, the supply dries up? Another sign of the popping bubble of academia.
A Visit To A Sikh Temple
This is about what I would have expected. Even after (or perhaps because of) the temple shooting, they’re unlikely candidates to promote gun control.
The Not So Best And Not So Brightest
Some thoughts on our so-called and misnamed “elites” from VDH.
Hitler Learns That Paul Ryan Is The VP Choice
OK, we all knew on Saturday that this was inevitable.
And speaking of Hitler parodies, Day By Day is doing its annual fundraiser.
Mark Whittington’s Tourette’s Syndrome
Isn’t it amusingly stupid how he is unable to write the phrase “commercial crew” without using the word “subsidy”?
What’s funniest of all, of course, is that he seems to actually believe that space policy will be a significant, or even debated issue in this election.
[Afternoon update]
Awwwww, isn’t that cute? Mark still fantasizes both that I have a “chain,” and that I ever “leap the length” of it. It seems to be one of his favorite expressions. That’s the autism, rather than the Tourette’s.
[Update on Tuesday morning]
I know what metaphors are, Mark. I was simply pointing out that your attempt at it was insane, and bore no resemblance to reality.
Irony Challenged On Space Commentary
Check out the comments over at my National Review piece. It’s almost as though some of the commenters are going out of their way to prove my thesis, by engaging in exactly the ignorant, straw-man behavior that opponents of the new policy have been for going on three years now. I love the notion that because I correct misstatements of fact, I am “attacking” the commenter. I especially love the latest insane redefinition of “subsidy” — that because SpaceX didn’t reinvent every single wheel in its vehicles, instead building on technology developed over the past decades, that it has been “subsidized” by NASA for decades.
