In the latest migration to a new virtual private server, some of the links to images in the earliest posts to this blog were broken. If you encounter one of these broken links, please let me know. I have backups and can restore the images.
There’s only one person who agrees with me on everything, and, as I’m not running for office, that person is not on the ballot.

From the NYT editorial page today, a very clear point, one that doesn’t bode well for the president or the, as usual, wan Democratic leadership:
“And it is there that Mr. Obama still has not made his case. Mr. Romney’s entire campaign rests on a foundation of short, utterly false sound bites. The stimulus failed. (Three million employed people beg to differ.) The auto bailout was a mistake. (Another million jobs.) Spending is out of control. (Spending growth is actually lower than under all modern Republican presidents.) He says these kinds of things so often that millions of Americans believe them to be the truth.”
The paper’s writers mention Obama’s blowing his opportunity and not making this case, one which needs to be made. Do you want someone who can’t tell the truth about anything as president because everything he has said is untrue. So if you want the liar, vote for him.

Since Nixon, the Republican Party has been the party of the big lie.
Until the news starts off with “Republicans lied again today,” they will continue to get away with it.

That means forever.
