The former(?) CEO of Fox News nailed it when he said, "The people don't want to BE informed, they want to THINK they are informed."

Obama pushed back a major position speech to "accommodate" the Republican "debates". Smart move -- he'll know what they are going to do and say and he can then use it to push them into a corner.

Obama's been on the job two and half years. GWB took eight years to screw things up, and you don't unscrew anything that's been screwed that long overnight.

Austerity? This isn't austerity. Austerity is breadlines, not knowing where your next meal is coming from, patching your kid's pants, "making do or doing without."
