Forgot to ask you if you could explain David Plouffe's amazing goof-up on the Sunday talk shows when he called the Boehner spending cuts "draconian" and "historic." Does Plouffe realize that these two adjectives connote somewhat contradictory meanings?<br /><br />Not the first time an Obama spokesman speaks out of both sides of his mouth!!!dave in bocahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10164227301361227792noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1522121129844880066.post-12792293648726114192011-04-12T06:44:31.083-04:002011-04-12T06:44:31.083-04:00Eric Boehlert isn't worthy of tying your shoes...Eric Boehlert isn't worthy of tying your shoes, Professor. I'm looking forward to Obama's shifty tergiversations about raising taxes, which he will attempt to disguise by some tricky euphemisms such as "fees." <br /><br />This sad sack appears trainable to a slight degree, but we're dealing here with a person who in his heart of hearts believes that government is the cure for whatever ails the economy. He is a danger to the American way of life.dave in bocahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10164227301361227792noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1522121129844880066.post-15204103799997773372011-04-11T13:50:02.067-04:002011-04-11T13:50:02.067-04:00@Robert - thanks, corrected.
