"A NEW. SEN. SA. TION!"
A Moment of Clarity.
Words. For Your Consideration...
"The agreement on the Bush tax cuts and unemployment benefits illustrates that Washington can tackle incremental issues. Lawmakers will undoubtedly agree to raise the debt ceiling and pass another federal budget to keep the government running.
But will this new divided government be able to make the major structural changes necessary for our economy to grow and prevent the fiscal crisis on the horizon?
...Washington must start by acknowledging that our society is overly geared toward consumption rather than savings and investment. This was a fundamental component of the 30-year leveraging cycle we just concluded...Our political leaders lecture Asian economies that they should consume more and save less to facilitate a global economic rebalancing - but they should also be working at home toward reorienting our society to savings and investment.
...we are facing a multi-year adjustment period, a "new normal" that many economists agree includes sustained high unemployment. The country needs bold economic leadership. It is time to stop allowing political pundits to chip away at courageous ideas with risk-averse incrementalism. Our country, economy and political system need a shot of adrenaline to spur action..."

"Barack Obama won the great tax-cut showdown of 2010 - and House Democrats don't have a clue that he did.In the deal struck this week, the president negotiated the biggest stimulus in American history, larger than his $814 billion 2009 stimulus package. It will pump a trillion borrowed Chinese dollars into the U.S. economy over the next two years - which just happen to be the two years of the run-up to the next presidential election. This is a defeat?
If Obama had asked for a second stimulus directly, he would have been laughed out of town. Stimulus I was so reviled that the Democrats banished the word from their lexicon throughout the 2010 campaign. And yet, despite a very weak post-election hand, Obama got the Republicans to offer to increase spending and cut taxes by $990 billion over two years. Two-thirds of that is above and beyond extension of the Bush tax cuts but includes such urgent national necessities as windmill subsidies.
No mean achievement.
...Obama is no fool..."

HANG TOUGH!
Words. For Your Consideration...
"For months, anxious Democrats have been asking why Barack Obama couldn't be more like Bill Clinton, their last successful president. Now Obama has gone and done something Clintonian by striking a compromise with Republicans to extend high-income tax cuts, and his own party's liberals are furiously accusing him of betraying their ideals.
That should come as no great surprise. Liberals often accused Clinton of the same sin — a bit of history many Democrats appear to have forgotten.
...Obama cut a deal. He gave the Republicans the continued tax cuts they wanted, even though he had campaigned against them as too expensive. In exchange, he got an extension of his own tax breaks for lower- and middle-income workers, plus a 13-month extension of unemployment benefits.
It was a Clintonian exercise in practical politics: He abandoned one of his most fervently argued positions, but the result was that he probably improved his own political standing in both the short term and the long term.
...If this deal survives, he's just won something that seemed well out of reach: a new economic stimulus package.
...Obama and his aides acknowledge that the deal they struck is far from their ideal. But they say they are doing what the country needs most — giving the economy a better chance to recover. "When you're at war, you fire the bullets that you have," his chief economic advisor, Austan Goolsbee, said.
They're also doing what independent voters — the ones who gave Obama his big majority in 2008 — say they want: show some willingness to compromise. For a president seeking reelection, there are worse things than being criticized by "the professional left,"..."
