Suskind = Unkind to Obama, who "Has To Go"

Tues. August 21, 2012:

Dear Readers, you are busy, so, just sayin', here are 3 or 4 items worth your time.

1.
The first is Niall Ferguson's scathing additions to the narrative of
RON SUSKIND's hatchet-job book Confidence Men: Wall Street, Washington, and the Education of a President --about Obama's feckless presidency.
Even if just some of it is true, we should be very very worried.

2.

ridiculously polarized affairs.  Question:  If this trend is that entrenched, can anything be done?

3.
GOP is barking up the wrong tree, to campaign on Ryan's budget.
Time for Romney/Ryan to please the Tea Party and pivot against banks & Wall Street.
