Josh Marshall on AIG

Josh Marshall is simply riveting writing on the subject of AIG and the appropriate T-shirt for power elite social gatherings – especially when donned by the mop-up dude:

And AIG’s mega-bonuses?

If this gnat of a blogger knew of them months ago, how can Team Obama fail to have known?

Just shows to go: Disingenuity is alive and living in a white house in Washington DC.

Should Obama forget Tom Daschle?

Some people think Pres. Obama should jettison Tom Daschle’s name from his appointees list:

And I agree – Daschle is expendable – Tim Geithner is much less so.

But with Geithner as Treasury Secretary, I’m assuming that he intends to actually improve our economic situation, not continue the undermining of our nation (and the world economy) for the sake of global domination objectives.

So I hope for America’s sake that my assumption isn’t too over-reaching.

Today Paul Krugman has weighed in some of his reservations on Team Obama’s reliance on tax cuts which are not the best way to stimulate the economy for two reasons, he says.

Allow Mr. Krugman to tell you the two reasons:

As I often say to anyone who will listen (and you probably say it, too):

it’s JOBS that Pay Money that we-the-people need. (Duh!)
