“….the Fools on the Hill are risking a trade war similar to that which occurred in 1931 at a time when the global economy is in the most dangerous [straits] in the past 75 years. There are other issues to deal with, but the currency kabuki is simply window dressing for an out of touch and bought and paid for Senate.”
These anti-business Dumbocrats sure know how to screw an economy. They can also start shooting wars and we’d better hope they don’t like their perks that much.

I have no use for sourpuss Harry Reid. But his use of the word Negro and the subsequent hoo-rah over it is just crep. What other minority flips out if a public figure doesn’t subscribe to their appellations-du-jour? Balderdash.
Reid also is pilloried because he put words to the obvious: that Barry is light-skinned. No kidding. And has no Negro dialect. Nope, sure doesn’t. He might have said Barry is actually half-white. There’s one still in hiding.
People of color, instead of colored people. What malarky. Why do white people allow themselves to be forced to play this stupid race game? Okay, so nigger is a pejorative. Except when it’s in a black mouth. Hypocritical poppycock. We should take a break from this nonsense, starting with Reid.
UPDATE: Baldilocks agrees, Reid was only telling the truth (for once).

President Andrew Jackson broke with tradition and invited the common people to the White House reception after his inauguration in 1829 and they tracked in mud and otherwise left him a big cleaning bill. But history has recorded no sniping remarks from him about it. The snark is left to his Democrat party descendents such as (who else?) Harry Reid. Thanks to the air-conditioning (wind or solar-generated, surely, can’t be from oil or coal) in the new Capitol Visitors Center, Reid’s delicate olfactory sensibilities will no longer be troubled by commoner body odor. Term limits, please.
Military historian and classicist Victor Davis Hanson, whose fascinating "Ripples of Battle," I’m reading of late, sums up the history-making the Dems in Congress, and their MSM buds, seem hellbent to accomplish:
"Leaving Iraq with the enemy in control of the battle space would be the first time in our nation’s history that a US military army group had abandoned an entire battlefield (a Somalia or Beirut were withdrawals of only a few hundred troops)…To do what the New York Times suggests—skedaddle from Iraq now—would destroy the reputation of the US military for a generation."
Not that they would care, apparently. What would they do, I wonder, after Syria takes over Lebanon, and Iran gets the bomb and buys the missiles to deliver it? Send Nancy and Harry over to chat?

The argument has, by now, gone way beyond whether Democrat House Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid called Generals Petraeus and Pace "incompetent." (Reid has admitted as much.) But the right-of-center bloggers lost me when they got all concerned about Reid saying it "in a time of war." Hell, when’s a better time for a politician to lean on a general or three? Lincoln fired several, as I recall. This is America. Generals ain’t saints.
