Bachmann says go with Reagan tax plan - raise taxes...

SACRAMENTO, California, USA - Someone should tell Michele Bachmann that taxes were higher under Ronald Reagan than today. (See video clip below..)

And maybe point out that he got the country out of a recession through government spending and raising the deficit.

She's making Herman Cain look like an economic genius.

Hoo-boy!
 

Christopher Buckley interview on Daily Show - must see

SACRAMENTO, Calif., USA - Christopher Buckley (son of the late William F. Buckley) was a great guest on the Daily Show this week, doing an interview with Jon Stewart that was hilarious at times, and revealing throughout.

Buckley gave up his column with the conservative National Review magazine after he posted a blog entry - on a publication edited by former New Yorker editor Tina Brown - endorsing Barack Obama.

Buckley's best line in the interview actually is a paraphrase of something Ronald Reagan said.

It's worth listening for.
