jobs that are paid for with tax dollars are not a positive thing. Of course Nancy Pelosi thinks that unemployment creates jobs.

yea, you're right. My favorite war is The War On Drugs, with God's help and a few more billion we could get rid of all those pesky little bastards.

They're going about it the wrong way. Legalize the drugs, but make it illegal to dilute the drugs. Make a "drug purity law". You can sell only "100% pure" white powders.

The resulting overdoses will diminish the drug using population faster and more completely than any enforcement action can. A little Darwinism goes a long way.

This gets it right: the president's position on "created or saved" jobs is embarassing:

Looks like the "saved or created" metric is being retired in favor of "supported".

Predictable. Now one word conveys even more unmeasurable "data" than before. But hey, if whomever is still left in the Obama supporter crowd is dumb enough to buy it, then it's a success.
