Lunacy on the Left

Larry Elder wants to know "Who's Crazier --- Charlie Sheen or the Left Wing?"
"Charlie Sheen, at least, has an excuse. He's on a drug he calls 'Charlie Sheen.'
But what powerful hallucinogen inhaled by the left induces the mental fantasy that makes them believe:
* Spending nearly a trillion dollars in 'stimulus' money 'created or saved' 3.5 million jobs?
* A 'tax cut' means giving checks to the nearly 40 percent of the workforce that pays no federal income taxes?
* Racism drives the tea party/conservative/right-wing criticism of a left-wing black president — who received more of the white vote than John Kerry, in every age demographic, and who at one time enjoyed an approval rating of almost 70 percent?
* Government can 'invest' in 'green jobs of the future' better than can the private sector, can pick winners and losers better than the marketplace, and can do this while not rewarding those with political influence or punishing those without it?
* The rich pay no taxes — even though the top 1 percent of income-earners pay nearly 40 percent of all federal income taxes?
* Tax cuts only benefit the rich — even though they disproportionately pay the income taxes (see above)?"
Read it all.
