Every so often he materializes in hazy, semi-transparent form to caution her about something, much as Woody Allen’s fictional mother does when she nags from the sky in “New York Stories.”

Uncovering Obama's Stimulus Sham - Peter Roff (usnews.com) on 2009-11-20
-
Ah, Peter Roff yet again spreading cheer from the Right. Let's not be fooled by what is intended to distract from a major question not often enough asked: What country of size, past or present, has been able to recover from a disastrous economic downturn in fewer than three, four or more years?
Go ahead, name the country.
Stumped?
If you're not stumped, you'd better be ready with the only correct answer: no country. Not one.
Ten months into the Obama presidency, we have the expectable result of efforts to turn eight years of the Bush presidency around--the need for at LEAST a couple of years more. Don't say it was Barney Frank and Christopher Dodd who caused the collapse, not Bush. It was Bush who touted the "Ownership Society," having bought into the bad policy of lending to risky borrowers, and it was Bush who furthered de-regulation of lenders and securities firms. And, lest we forget, it was Bush who, having inherited a big surplus, left Obama with a big deficit.
Peter Roff is correct in seeing mis-steps by the Obama administration. He's incorrect in insinuating failure, though.
Given the mess inherited, much time and many more corrective attempts by Obama and his people MUST be expected. Also to be expected is that Obama's every move will be from a Liberal perspective, not a conservative one.

I have never believed that everything happens for a reason. But I do feel very strongly that everything happens so that it can be turned into a column.
