Yes, indeed, those were the words that came out of Barack Obama’s mouth last night at a Democratic Fundraiser in Miami, FL. Well, after he said they “amused” him. They “amuse” him??

It’s Bush’s fault about the banks, even though Senator Obama voted to bail them out; [...]

“Kiss me!!” “What?” That’s right, I said, “Kiss me!!” Many a businessman is familiar with the basic principle of “kiss me,” that is “Keep It Simple, Stupid.” Regrettably, Washington is not familiar with that simplest of business principles. Legislative bills that run into the thousands of pages and admittedly go unread by our lawmakers prior [...]

Yesterday was one for the ages. No, I’m not talking about the House of Representatives passing their Health Care Reform Bill. No, I will give you a break from the lunacy that is our Congress, one that passes a bill with little time for review thus resulting in Nancy Pelosi violating her promise of transparency. [...]

(Bumped up from Saturday.) General McChrystal’s proposal for Afghanistan has been on Obama’s desk for almost two months now. And what is Obama doing about it?

One just has to wonder what prompted the child in the video below to ask Obama the question he did. Maybe people in his household were decrying the lack of it, or maybe this child was picking up on the animosity in the air, or maybe he just wanted to share the good news of [...]
