When White House press secretary Jay Carney stood up in front of reporters and said, "Do not buy into the B.S. that you hear about spending and fiscal constraint with regard to this administration," I naturally assumed someone would come out with a hook and drag him away before sending him on a long vacation to recover from whatever was addling his mind.2012-06-14T00:01:00-04:002012-06-14T20:40:03ZSteve Chapman

And to achieve success, the contingent exaggerates its own numbers, so as to seem less peripheral than it really is.2012-06-13T10:52:00-04:002012-06-13T21:10:06ZAustin Nimocks
