Tribute to John Stewart (uh, John Stuart Leibowitz)

With stupid facial expressions and lapses of clever thought weakly and desperately masked as comedic pause for emphasis, you’ve brought dishonest liberal spin to the easily manipulated college set. Congratulations are due to him in that the most desperately impressionable portion of the country, other than those on perpetual welfare, see him as co-messiah with Obama. He carefully hides behind the banner of comedy, to hide his constant lapses of judgement, but fully understands that his naive and idiotic audience of kool-aid drinking impressionable college kids from broken homes eagerly consumes and adopts his every opinion, because, well, “that’s what the other kids are doing”. Grow up and try brainwashing, uh, entertaining adults for a change, it’s not so easy when you don’t have a leg to stand on. That’s why he still swings around his monkey cage pulling faces and throwing crap. Why the name change John? It’s not like it would hurt you in New York entertainment circles. Make that an episode. Adults, not your audience, want to know.

How about tight money and tax cuts? The historical record there is stellar. In the early 1920s, the Fed began its second decade committed to stable prices, abashed as it was by the 70% increase in the price level from 1913 to 1923 occasioned by Fed loosening. On the fiscal side, the marginal rate of the income tax got hacked down from 77% to 25%. The result was the single most famous run of American prosperity, the Roaring ’20s.

Sarah Palin’s happiness is what really irks liberals

For her fans, like the ones I had the pleasure of meeting in Chicago, she’s refreshingly upbeat and resilient, the bubbly friend from childhood who was always great at cheering you up and cheerleading you on.

But for her detractors, nothing raises the ire of cynical liberals more than a happy-go-lucky, totally unburdened, freethinking and self-assured conservative woman who has everything she wants and then some. And without anyone’s help.
