John Quincy Adams, at Anchoress. Remarkable to me that we have a photo of him, in old age. Young country we have here.
Guy started spying during Carter, but they blame Bush anyway. Just one more greedy, money-hungry Leftist.

Obama to American businesses: Drop dead. A quote:
... last week, Microsoft Chief Executive Officer Steve Ballmer came to Washington to announce what Microsoft would do if Obama’s multinational tax policy is enacted.
“It makes U.S. jobs more expensive,” Ballmer said, “We’re better off taking lots of people and moving them out of the U.S.” If Microsoft, perhaps our most competitive company, has to abandon the U.S. in order to continue to thrive, who exactly is going to stay?
At issue is Obama’s policy to end the deferral of multinational taxation.
The U.S. now has about the highest combined corporate tax rate, second only to Japan among industrialized countries. That rate is so high that U.S. firms have an enormous disadvantage versus competitors. The average corporate tax rate for the major developed countries in the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development in 2008 was about 27 percent, more than 10 percentage points lower than the U.S. rate.

Who says we can't deport the illegals? Apparently we can when we want to.
Flunking history in Cairo: Almost every advance he attributed to the Muslims in his big speech should be credited to someone else.
But the whole purpose was to butter them up, I suppose.
