Here are some stories that caught my eye today.
One of the most frustrating things about Republicans over the last few years is their adoption of "post-policy" positioning." That's why Kimberly Strassel's op-ed is revealing. She's having some fun positing that if President Obama can claim the kinds of powers she identifies, why not the next Republican president too? And then she unleashes what the agenda would be. Holy cow!!!! Suffice it to say, "Social Security? What Social Security?"
All I can say is...please Bibi, don't do it!
The good news of the day is that the incoming Nevada House Speaker Ira Hansen has decided to step down after his racist/sexist remarks were made public.
While everyone is distracted, slowly but surely the Obama administration is transferring detainees out of Gitmo.
Unfortunately for the Republicans, their 2016 field of hopefuls is not as popular with the general public as they are with their base.
And finally, we can now replace all the other things we've been told to freak out about lately. The truly terrifying news of the day is that the earth is running out of chocolate.
