What It Really Is

Mark Steyn, author of America Alone, has written a dandy column.:

Obama's False Choice

"Writing in the Chicago Tribune last week, President Obama fell back on one of his favorite rhetorical tics: “But I also know,” he wrote, “that we need not choose between a chaotic and unforgiving capitalism and an oppressive government-run economy. That is a false choice that will not serve our people or any people.”

Really? For the moment, it’s a “false choice” mainly in the sense that he’s not offering it: “a chaotic and unforgiving capitalism” is not on the menu, which leaves “an oppressive government-run economy” as pretty much the only game in town. How oppressive is yet to be determined..."

And this may be the most important line, and the most important reality we need to remember, and broadcast in any way we can:

"In their first two months, Obama and Geithner have done nothing but vaporize your wealth, and your children’s future. What began as an economic crisis is now principally a political usurpation."

Italics my own. That is exactly what is happening. Ole Emanuel isn't wasting this crisis...that's for sure.
