Anytime I read any of his articles my brain does it with his voice and accent.

I love when he’s a fill in for Rush.

Ouch.

Good article, but it hurts.
Yes, we got some con-man in the White House ... but the bottom line is that we are hosed. Unless you are part of the Government Class that gets a blank check in providing itself treats... But even then - at some point when the Economy has been completely throttled, they'll have nothing left to pay themselves.

Good find with many great lines. Here is my favorite.

"In Speechworld, "no hill is too steep, no horizon is beyond our reach." In Realworld, that's mainly because we're going downhill. And the horizon is a cliff edge."

"At his best," wrote the New York Times of Obama's speech, "the president can be highly persuasive."

He spends his time in “speech world” so his hands are never dirty.

I'm slightly disappointed with one paragraph in Steyn's latest.

He fails to have the clarity of strategic vision that led Norman Podhertz to call the Cold War "WW III" and the current war against Salafist Islam "WW IV".

We won a war in 1992 when the Soviet Union collapsed. The "lost wars" after WW II were not proper wars but campaigns in a larger war which we eventually won. It was admittedly an odd war, since nuclear deterrence caused it to be fought at arm's length: our proxies and the Soviets' proxies fought, we fought Soviet proxies directly, the Soviets fought our proxies directly, and the crucial blow was faked telemetry in our anti-missile tests that made us look about 10 years ahead of where we actually were. All the great military theorists of ages past from Sun Tzu to Clauswitz to Liddell-Hart would have beamed with delight at Reagan's accomplishment.

Why does Steyn not have his own full-time talk show. He is waaaaay better than Hannity.

Isn’t it the President’s job to produce a budget and Congress’ job to accept or reject it?
