A Winter's Day

The Real World
With sales rising and promising new vehicles on the way, the automakers are solidly positioned for future profits. But in the past, Detroit has tended to reward workers in good times, only to demand givebacks when fortunes changed. (NYT, 1/13/11)

Well, yeah, this is the way it works….. Welcome to capitalism.

RedStateVT Asks
Jared Loughner, the accused killer, is accountable for his own actions. His politics are confused at best, and he clearly has mental health problems. That is what most liberals are saying. (E.J. Dionne Jr. Washington Post, 1/13/11)

Question: Does Dionne not have a fact-checker or is he just lying outright?

Quote of the Day
The tea party itself got help from history—the arrival of a clarifying event, the sovereign debt crisis of 2010. Simultaneously in the capitals of Europe, California, New York, New Jersey, Illinois and elsewhere it was revealed that fiscal commitments made across decades, often for liberally inspired social goals, had put all these states into a condition of effective bankruptcy. (Daniel Henninger, WSJ, 1/12/11)
