“Damn” was her audible response
I recently heard a surprising story: A female CEO was briefed on a stellar candidate for a top job at her company. “Sounds ideal,” she said to the group in the room. “Male or female?” Male was the answer. “Damn” was her audible response. The guy wasn’t even interviewed. Why Are Men SilentSearch BIS

Uncle Sam’s IOUs Can’t Save Social Security
Jeff Jacoby reviews Social Security funding. But the trust fund’s assets are an illusion. Social Security doesn’t own $2.6 trillion in gold bars or real estate or shares of Google. All it has are Treasury IOUs. Those IOUs represent $2.6 … Continue reading
Social Security lockbox
Hey it’s empty. The Daily Camera runs Krauthammer’s column from time to time, it will be interesting to see if they pick this one up. If Lew’s claim were just wrong, that would be one thing. But it provides the … Continue reading

Keep up the good work Democrats…
Of course it’s only a Rasmussen poll. Even taking that with a grain of salt, it’s being compared with the same poll only a month ago. My advice to Democrats would be to step back, take a deep breath and … Continue reading

Social Security and Medicare
Read the Trustee’s report on the health of Social Security and Medicare. Don’t worry, it’s all Bush’s fault as Nancy Pelosi is so eager to tell us. It would be borderline funny if it wasn’t so pathetic.

Another Year of Solvency for SS
