AJStrata Has Been “Deputized” By Congress! – Updated

Update: Ed Morrissey notes (H/T reader Darth Aggie) that the only reason the April numbers were not the 6th month of 600,000+ job losses is because 72,000 low paying, temporary census jobs hid the true toll of the lack of any federal stimulus.

Democrats Had Their Chance – Muffed It!

I know a lot of people think it is way to early to declare the Democrats efforts in DC a total failure, but it really isn’t. Things have been put in motion which cannot be reversed, even if the Democrats were willing to admit their screw ups and try and undo them. The economic forces […]
