Pause... Count to ten...
The Washington Examiner ran a piece that has been e-mailed to me by my conservative friends. It's not worth reading. I only provided the link to prove I'm not making it up.
The guy is arguing that the future obligations of the US are greater than the current assets. I won't dispute his math (which is disputable). My reaction: Who cares?
I imagine someone coming to me in a panic: "Steve, do you have enough assets to pay all of your bills - mortgage, electricity, heating oil, credit cards, etc. for the next 50 years?"
"Umm, no."
"Then you are bankrupt. You are bankrupt!"

With this type of insightful analysis Obama's headed for a long eight years.
And I have probably just lost a few conservative friends.
