The core failure of Team Obama is not a failure to communicate, but a failure to comprehend.

Instead of putting Americans to work, the Teamsters have been busy yanking members off projects and idling construction projects from California to Indiana to New York in order to shake down employers.

Environmentalists hate sprawl - except when it comes to the size of their expansive pet legislation on Capitol Hill.

Birds of a lawless, bigoted feather bully together.

Most small-business owners will tell you they don't want Obama 'boosting' them. They just want him to get out of the way.

Situational unawareness in the private marketplace or on the battlefield will cost you your livelihood or your life. In the Age of Obama, however, such willful ignorance is a job prerequisite. The less you know the better.

Official motto of the White House economic team: Those who can, do. Those who can't, fantasize in the classroom, fail in Washington and then return to the Ivy Tower to train the next generation of egghead economic saboteurs. Life is good for left-wing academics. Everyone else pays dearly.
