Reality Bites

I really like Robert Reich--he and Paul Krugman seem to be about the only pundits of note (plenty of less notheworthy company) who consistently espouse the common sense of the Liberal agenda in matters economic. But sometimes...

It could just be my having had it with all these Liberal pundits who keep insisting what Obama should do (he won't), but we can't even end the temporary Bush tax cuts for the wealthy and by some fucking miracle we're going to get a 70% tax rate on the nation's richest folks? Get real, for Christ's sake.

Want to enact a Liberal economic policy? Get Liberals elected who will be receptive to such policies. Anything else is mere talk, and as we found out so succinctly from President Obama, talk is cheap.

Peace,
