BRET BAIER: As Obama hammers ‘income inequality,’ gap grows under his presidency.


What the graphic shows, I'm afraid, is not the rich getting richer, but rather the amount of money sitting on the sidelines, chasing stocks instead of being put to productive use. I expect it will continue at least until 2015 (if Republicans take the Senate in the mid-term elections) or 2017 (when Obama is finally turned out of office).

In a bizarre way, I should be pushing for the Democrats to win, since every stupid thing they do moves the stock market ever higher....
MARTIN LUTHER KING was a Tea Partier.
"HIGHER EDUCATION should be promoted to all students as an opportunity to experience an intellectual awakening, not just increase their earning power." If that's the case, perhaps we could start with our abysmal secondary schools.

The comments aren't as kind as I.
VICTOR DAVIS HANSON: The thin strand of civilization is fraying.
MAJORITY OF NEW YORK VOTERS say they would re-elect Gov. Andrew Cuomo. The bad news is that I have to drive through New York in order to visit my daughter; the good news is that I don't have to stop.
THIS IS one of those rare cases where I'm all for a lack of White House transparency. The less I see or hear of Michelle Obama, the happier I am....
OF COURSE: Is a lot of scientific research just crap? This is just a single instantiation of Sturgeon's Law: 90% of everything is crap. (Just look at the number of garbage channels on cable television as an obvious example.)
OF COURSE NOT: Should Americans believe anything President Obama says?
GOVERNMENT SLEAZE: It's going to be a long 4 years. The only bright spot is the knowledge that I didn't vote for him.
A PREDICTION that will almost certainly come true.
