A Lesson In Actual Politcal Discussion

Inside Obama's Economic Brain Trust

I've attached an article published 2 weeks ago in New York Magazine. The article raises legitimate concerns about how the Obama administration is going about dealing with our current economic situation, and I'd be interested to hear from those of you capable of forming complete sentences and coherent, intelligent arguments. As always, that means if you use the term "douchebag" to describe anyone in this article, that means you fall short of my qualifications previously set forth. And it makes you a douchebag. An America-hating douchebag.

For those of you unfamiliar with New York Magazine, it is a legitimate publication...with actual journalists. It isn't some guy with a creepy youth minister goatee, wrapped in an American flag who thinks we'd be better off living in 1959 so as not to taint our water fountains. NY Mag is quite left leaning...and was an ardent supporter of the Obama campaign and administration. Thus, criticism has more legitimacy as it isn't just someone seeing Democrat and crying Socialist.

Let's consider this a social experiment.

God bless everyone!

appears the europeans DO NOT want the US to pursue another FDR New Deal:

appears the socialists are against this plan too.

all, i might add, are from "legitimate publications."

While engaging in said intelligent debate, do we have to be able to distinguish between their, there, and they're?

I'm pretty sure that New York Magazine is showing its obvious bias with the badly photoshopped image on the first page of that article. I did a little searching and found the original.
