Saturday Reading: What Obama Can Learn From Europe and the 2nd Amendment's Unlikely Hero
Happy Saturday infidels. Again, I give you a photo of the Obama girl as she is much preferred over the elitist, egomaniac, cult of personality Barry H. Obama. The first article talks about how Europe has actually been adopting conservative economic tax policies by (repeat after me) "cutting taxes." So while Brother Obama wants to raise taxes, the trend in Europe is to cut taxes and to use market based economic reforms -- the exact opposite of what Brother Obama and San Fran Sister Pelosi have in mind for us if you get a democratic troika (White House, House, Senate).
The article notes in part:
What's more, these changes have been adopted and implemented by parties left and right. This Europe is a shining example of exactly the sort of postpartisan government action that the Obama campaign says it is about.The cutting of corporate income- tax rates is an excellent example of European market-friendly bipartisanship. Germany's right-left coalition of Christian and Social Democrats implemented a large rate cut earlier this year, reducing the top marginal corporate rate to about 30% from 39%. Spain's Socialist and Britain's Labor governments have followed suit, reducing their countries' top corporate rates.
These traditionally left-of-center parties understand that in a globalized economy, wealth and investment are mobile, flowing to those countries that provide hospitable investment climates. As part of a European Union where center-right governments in Greece, Denmark, Ireland and Eastern Europe have dramatically reduced corporate tax rates, they understand that they cannot help workers if they drive away the capital that employs and pays them.
Read it here folks and send copies to your liberal elitist blockhead friends. Maybe they will learn something.
For you reading pleasure is an article on Alan Gura, a 37 year old lawyer to took the DC gun ban to the Supreme Court and won. Some of us will never get a chance to argue before the high Court. I hope to make it there some day. Well this dude did it in his 30's. Most impressive and a most impressive victory for all Americans.
Enjoy the weekend infidels.

Yup, Europe isn't quite as European as it once was. At least on tax policy anyway.
