Thoughts Du Jour

• BO wants the credit card companies to simplify and clarify their policies and procedures so as to be more transparent. No more fine print he implores. And yet, he oversees the I.R.S., a federal behemoth with nearly 90,000 employees and a tax code of over 17,000 pages of fine print. You call 10 different I.R.S. offices with a question and get 10 different answers, and none of them are correct. How about taking the mote out of your eye first Barry and cleaning up around your own back door. Implement the Flat Tax or Fair Tax! Good grief, your own Treasury secretary can't even master TurboTax! How dare you dain to preach to the private credit card companies?!
• Darth Sebelius was confirmed by the Senate today as the new secretary of H.H.S. A dark day for unborn children all over the land. Well, at least Kansans are rid of her.
• Benedict Arlen goes over to the dark side today. GOOD RIDDANCE! It will be challenging in the Senate for a while, but the conservative movement, the Republican Party and the country will be better off for it in the long run. He will probably loose to Toomey in the next election anyway.
• Looks like Michelle took her hubby's jet out for a joy-ride over NYC. Hope she didn't spill the champagne all over the fine Corinthian leather upholstery.
• I give BO a grade of G for his first hundred days, since F is just too good. And the mainstream media gets G-minus.
