It’s never the time — to not be a hypocrite
The old saying that it is always the right time to do the right thing, doesn’t apply to the wealthy nor their servents in Congress.
Behold Kent Conrad “Mr. Deficit Hawk”. What do you think of those Bush tax cuts for the wealthy and the Republican plan for loving them?
[A] “formula for the decline of the United States.”
Naturally, Kent continues…
There’s no question in my mind that taxes have to go up on the wealthiest among us. The question is when. I don’t think this is the moment.
Yes, god forbid the fabulously wealthy, who have had huge swaths of the national wealth the last eight years concentrated in their hands, release a fraction (now, then, or ever).
It’s just never the moment for them to help reduce the debt, is it “Mr. Deficit Hawk”?

Scientists at the NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies reported recently that the average global temperature was higher over the past 12 months than during any other 12-month period in history. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration has released corroborating data, adding that the past four months, including June, have each individually been the hottest on record as well….
The average global temperature, computed over a 12-month period, reached a new record in May and held steady for the month of June, he said. This was despite the recent minimum in solar activity, which should have had a cooling effect on Earth. Apparently, Ruedy said, the solar cycle “has much less impact than the warming trend.”
But…but…Al Gore flies in planes and has a big house.
