Obama’s leading us over the economic cliff

It's now crystal clear that Barack Obama, contrary to what he told us in 2008, didn't have a clue about what ailed the American economy or what to do about it.

This morning's news about the economy flattening in the first quarter is a startling reminder of that.

It's now 2 1/2 years into the Obama term. We're worse off than we were even after spending a trillion dollars. The wealth gap, after closing during the Bush years, is now wider than it has ever been between white and black Americans. We're economically becoming two peoples again under a guy who promised to bring us together. And Democrats have proven once again that given full power they cannot control their own spending.

I write more on this in my Sunday column, which you can find here. Please join me for what I promise you will be an enjoyable read and a stimulating conversation.
