Welcome to the Brave New World of George W. Obama

Barack Obama has cited his current tax bill as an example that Democrats and Republicans can work together.

Of course they can. This type of deal making was always available. The current tax proposal is capitulation being packaged as compromise. Republicans are always delighted to see capitulation.

Only a Barack Obama would have the gall to stand before America and proclaim that outright surrender constitutes a grand triumph of the American political system.

Take your bow, Mr. Obama. The top 1 percent of Americans possess better than 90 percent of the nation's assets. More Americans are working longer hours for less pay. When was the last time that the minimum wage was increased?
