By Jim Vicevich / December 9, 2009 /

You lefties crack me up. And you make fun of us for talking about the Reagan era. You guys can’t get the “New Deal” out of your system. You get it that the natives are restless because of high unemployment and you think you can calm those “Bible thumping, gun toting, PBR swilling, sister kissing,…

Two years? Yup, two years. At least that’s what White House Advisor and part time CNN pundit tells Wolf Blitzer. He sounds kind of nervous to me, as in … this ain’t working as fast as we thought it might. Playing the American people for two years, even by the One, is a tall order.…
