President Obama Has Lowered Taxes More Than He Has Raised Them, And They Are Today Lower Than They Were In President Reagan's Time. But You Don't Hear Conservatives Crowing About That.

We Live In A Media World Simultaneously Obsessed With Technology And Personality.

One Of The Many, Many Salutary Aspects Of Barack Obama's Impending Presidential Nomination Is The Sea Change His Victory Marks In The Battle For The Mind-set Of The American Foreign Policy Establishment.
