Lions and Tigers and Bears and Government Fraud Oh My

Big projects
The high speed rail to nowhere. Perhaps “Thinking Big” isn’t such a grand idea.

Betsy summarizes and comments… So the President is willing to admit in an off-the-record bull session with David Brooks that the projects that he has been claiming to have funded weren’t really what he was telling us that they were. … Continue reading

Fiscal responsibility?
The Obama administration wants an additional $2 billion for the “Cash for Clunkers” program, but can’t provide any accounting of how the first $1 billion was spent. The Obama administration is refusing to quickly release government records on its “cash-for-clunkers” … Continue reading

The bond vigilantes are back!
As the chart below shows, the 10 year bond yield has been creeping up since the end of December. Wonder why? Could it be due to the economy turning around? Most likely it’s because our lenders don’t care to lend … Continue reading

Obama: It’s OK to borrow to pay for health care
Not that he invented the concept, but best I can tell it’s OK to borrow to pay for damn almost anything. He surely has quickly become the King of borrowing money, but of course the previous administration made him do … Continue reading

Republican hypocrites
We voted against it, but we’re sure glad we got the money anyway! GOP leaders took great pride in the fact that every House Republican voted against the $787 billion economic-stimulus bill and that all but 16 opposed the spending … Continue reading

Mainstream media bias
