The political season is wonderful

I just realized that I'm not blogging, I'm coasting. From Newmark's Door:

Ms. Hillary: "This issue of energy and global warming has the promise of creating millions of new jobs in America. It can be a win-win, if we do it right."

James Pethokoukis: "Of course, many economists will recognize 'the green is good for growth' trap that Obama and Clinton have stumbled into. It's just a modern iteration of the famous "broken windows fallacy" where people mistake the shifting of wealth and resources for the creation of new wealth and resources."

Comments

Ms. Hillary

For now on I want people to call me "Mr Joshua" cuz it makes me sound like a cool assassin of some international crime cartel.

By the way good job Tim and John for calling Clinton, Clinton, rather then Hillary.
