In general, he was not very positive about Bush II. He was very upset with Bush II about Iraq War II. The fact that the electoral college gave Bush II the victory when he did not win the popular vote also was very upsetting to Dr. Brusca. Dr. Brusca also felt like the Republicans were nearly traitors for not helping the car companies more initially.<BR/><BR/>In summary, it is not true that Dr. Brusca is a right wing idealogue. I do appreciate that he loves economics and is not happy with obviously politicized "economics" arguments.<BR/><BR/>I do think Dr. Brusca would be better served with a more mature approach to communication but it is his blog so he can do it however he sees fit.<BR/><BR/>Steve KochAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2763460351111948732.post-30207770754353165512009-02-08T09:40:00.000-05:002009-02-08T09:40:00.000-05:00Actually, I think you are really a Liberal Democra...Actually, I think you are really a Liberal Democrat doing your best to impersonate Rush Limbaugh so that all those axe-scratching Repubs who are desperately holding onto their backside views of trickle down economics may get a chance to finally see for themselves what cocky conservative jerks are really out there claiming positions of authority.

Still there?</I><BR/><BR/>If he was smarter than me, he would have given up when he came across the part of your post where you accused him of "having such a love-crush on Mr Obama you have disabled your brain". Or directly after, when you went:<BR/><BR/>"OHHH Obama did it it OOOOH its SOOO goooodd. OOOOO..OOOHHH. What a mellifluous name OHHHHH_Bama!" <BR/><BR/>I mean, seriously, this is supposed to pass as serious discourse? This kind of attempted throw-down is teenager stuff, isn't it? Good for Digg, maybe?<BR/><BR/>The contrast between your rant and Adam Posen's level-headed, well-sourced comment, in which he specifies which research and work he did that made him come to each of his conclusions, is remarkable. Whether I agree with what someone says or not, that's what I expect when I click on an expert's comment on Google, not some talk show-styled rant.<BR/><BR/>If Anonymous is right and you self-righteously ranted about this subject <I>after</I> previously predicting there was no possibility of recession and the housing sector would recover, then, well - words fail.

After all, the GOP did not exist in 1848. It was, once, a third party. The Bullmoose Party almost provided another term for Teddy Roosevelt. There is always opportunity for a third party to emerge. The primary things a third party needs is organization and a clear and popular platform or ideology.<BR/><BR/> What is happening today is simple... the extremists have taken over one of the parties and the other is thought to have extremists running it. Strangely, I could pretty much guarantee loyal members of each party will disagree with that premise.<BR/><BR/> Let me be perfectly clear. The Dems have become a politically liberal party. It knows the extreme left has gained a lot of power but doesn't care because (a) they supply a lot of money and foot soldiers and (b) "they mean well" and (c) they aren't conservatives.<BR/><BR/>The Republicans are claimed to be conservative and run by the Right Wing Extremists. The reality is much different or McCain would not have been the nominee. Additionally, even the true conservatives of the Republican Party can't abide the Right Wing extremists and so deny them any power.<BR/><BR/>Proof that the above is true is that Liberals will deny any of it is true.Douglashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09752593286034877538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2763460351111948732.post-80873547909929949992009-02-07T18:24:00.000-05:002009-02-07T18:24:00.000-05:00I think it's obvious what Robert Brusca's true int...I think it's obvious what Robert Brusca's true intentions are if you look at the text of his post. He refers to our president as Mr. O, Obama, Mr. President...he never refers to him as President Obama. Yes, a subtle thing, but hugely obvious to me in terms of his prejudice and lack of respect for a man, who despite anyone's disagreement of his views, deserves respect. I have an ultra-conservative friend who can never say his full name either--always President BamBam or Obaminator. <BR/><BR/>Robert is obviously just another rhetorical ugly mouth of the racists and Rush Limbaughs of the world. They don't like black people and will never support President Obama no matter how good a job he does. So, just as any die-hard liberal's opinion, Robert, your always biased opinion means nothing. <BR/><BR/>Good luck with being a joke.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2763460351111948732.post-48332510708935188632009-02-07T15:02:00.000-05:002009-02-07T15:02:00.000-05:00http://news.google.com/news?btcid=4b058b4be98034e2...http://news.google.com/news?btcid=4b058b4be98034e2<BR/><BR/>Adam Posen has a balanced view and explain clearly why the stimulus would work and why its different from the Japanese stimulus. <BR/> <BR/>Perhaps you could use some refresher education in econ 101. and may actually help your predictions (you predicted that the recession has already hit its peak!!.. get real or start praying).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2763460351111948732.post-8814508401040441442009-02-07T14:55:00.000-05:002009-02-07T14:55:00.000-05:00Wait!!! he also predicted that there is no possibi...Wait!!! he also predicted that there is no possibility of recession..<BR/><BR/>wonder how his consultancy with the Iceland or Zimbabwe governments worked out.<BR/><BR/>http://www.pbs.org/nbr/site/onair/gharib/060719_gharib/Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2763460351111948732.post-47392887011047500952009-02-07T14:50:00.000-05:002009-02-07T14:50:00.000-05:00I am still trying to figure out the online univers...I am still trying to figure out the online university that granted him Ph.D. <BR/><BR/>and to think that he predicted the housing sector will recover.. so much for Vodoo economics.<BR/><BR/>http://www.marketwatch.com/news/story/robert-brusca-third-quarter-recovery/story.aspx?guid=%7B3339EB41-31A5-4FFA-8383-9A642336CB73%7DAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2763460351111948732.post-56968725700986997192009-02-07T14:07:00.000-05:002009-02-07T14:07:00.000-05:00"David?
