Matt Bai: Unlike in 2012, What America Really Needs Now is a Distant, Ultra-Wealthy Elite With a Sense of Noblesse Oblige
Charles Cooke discovers, get this, Matt Bai making a case for Hillary Clinton quite opposite to his former rhetoric about Mitt Romney.
Bai, quoted by Cooke, is responding to Bernie Sanders' (mild) attacks on Hillary Clinton as "not like us." His headline?Well gee that's awfully funny because the American people could have elected such a man in 2012 but the Matt Bais of the world screamed about Car Elevators.
Hillary Clinton's not like the rest of us? Good!
.... Senator Sanders made this comment while sitting in what CNBC described as a “bistro near the Capitol,” which doesn’t exactly sound like Applebee's, but you get the point: Clinton is out of touch with regular Americans because she doesn't buy used cars or stockpile CVS coupons or save up for Disneyland like the rest of us do. To which I would only ask: why on God’s earth would we want a president like us? . . . If you're asking me to choose between the self-made man or woman with resentments and identity issues, on one hand, and some arrogant oligarch who serves no financial master and is compelled to seek office mostly by some patronizing sense of altruism on the other (Michael Bloomberg, New York’s former mayor, comes to mind), then I'll take out-of-touch every time, and so should you.

That is a Presidential statement.
She establishes air superiority over Dem Shill Mitchell.
She tells the reader a bunch of things the American press has not told the American public.
She hints she knows the King of Jordan better than Obama.
And she's smart enough not to get into predicting an end-game before she's had a chance to arrange the pieces on the board.
Fiorina was ejected from HP because she wasn't part of the old-boy engineering culture of the company, she was a marketing parvenu and a little hard-edged and there's a lot of Silicon Valley types who will know nothing about her but that history, but I'm really liking her campaign...
But I'm still a Scott Walker guy right now.

Now I see, that it's not sarcastic at all, but flamboyantly. outrageously and unrepentantly HYPOCRITICAL.
Which leads me to a new definition of progressivism:
-----------------
progressivism (noun) - a set of political beliefs whose only unifying characteristic is that outsiders cannot tell if they are sarcasm or hypocrisy.

OTOH, Hillary altruistic? Not slavishly devoted to increasing her wealth?

Add a little dash of Clintons' numerous scandals, real experience like Benghazi or for that matter the entire Middle East and a plethora of scandals from floating around Washington for decades and she's done.
People don't want another lifetime Washington politician who is almost 70 years old and spent most of those years feasting off taxpayers.
Which is why her acolytes scream age discrimination every time it comes up. It's like political Ebola.

People like this deny themselves moments like the one you describe. They fill everything with distractions. They can't be alone for long. When they're alone they have the TV or radio blasting. Even then they're probably drinking to "relax" or "come down" or "take the edge off". They live the ultimate unexamined lives.

As for it ending soon, not so likely. Greece is still afloat and Japan is still dog paddling fine. It can stay irrational longer than you can stay fiscally sound so don't bet on a collapse soon.

It's a good thing for the media's sake that there aren't as many radicals on the right as there are on the left. Otherwise they'd be a tad worried about actual retaliation as opposed the non retaliation they all warn against.

I mean, really. The "Charity" is supposed to be a charity supporting poor kids.
Nevermind the whole graft and corruption issue, but if the head of the Red Cross was found re appropriating millions of charity dollars to live like a gulf emir, that'd be big news and a big thing with the low infos, right?
Or how about we point out that Hillary made millions but paid a lower tax rate then her staffers? (namely, zero % tax rate, since she lived off the tax-free charities expense account)

Wait a minute.
So which of those is "out of touch?" Because he offers choice A (self-made man or woman with resentments and identity issues) and choice B (arrogant oligarch). Which of those is "in touch?"
Is he now saying that Romney (a self-made man) was *not* out-of-touch? Or is he saying that Hillary! is "self-made?"
I mean, even sorting through the word-salad is hard enough, but then the paragraph concludes without any basis on the foundational sentences.

The problem is not so much someone successful in the private sector, which undoubtedly Mitt was/is. The problem is his view of government as the solution to our problems; not the cause of them.
That's why the GOP is nothing more than Democrat light. The only difference is that they believe that they can run the Leviathan better than the Dems because of their business experience.
A totally insane perspective, but look no further than the Chamber of Commerce and all the fascist cronies.

She has done little but been self aggrandizing which I suppose counts.
The woman has accomplished less during her lifetime than many others with less opportunity have.
Her most pertinent achievements (if they can be viewed as such) was having a vagina and marrying Bill Clinton.

I do. American businesses are choked to death in regulations. The only businesses that can survive in today's climate are the extremely dynamic ones that dance around in less regulated new areas, or the old dinosaurs who have whole office complexes full of compliance officers and lawyers.

A fair point. I'm certain he can balance a checkbook. I'm sure Obama can too. It isn't a question of can, its a question of want. Unlike the private section where you have complete control, with the government you have so many other groups coming at you. Perhaps Romney would have excelled in that role. Perhaps Cruz would falter.

The only bit of "us" that has created ISIS, is the power vacuum left by Ear Leader in every way that mattered in the Arab and Persian worlds.
Yeah, the "latent" ISIS was there. It's always been there. Which is why despots such as Quadaffi spared no cruelty in repressing the murderous savages at every opportunity.
Ozero and his (Hildebeest) minions only served to release the savages from their cages.

They're bitching about Rubio's cashing in of retirement assets to do whatever....
That is in, fact, how most americans live. It used to be called the "home equity loan."
(FWIW, the wife and I are realigning our funds as well, we may "cash out" a few orphaned IRA's and 401k's to deal with things like student loan debt. When you do the math it's a bright idea. Cash out in quotes because we're thinking of taking a loan against the 401k, which basically sidesteps the tax penalties unless we fail to make repayments. But those funds aren't doing anything, they've just been sitting with 0 contributions for a while because they're from old jobs. And I could roll them into an IRA but given the current interest rates... point is it's not as stupid a decision as people claim.)

Apples to rocks, but Rick Perry did that in his last governor's race several years ago. Basically he put out a (not unreasonable-sounding) demand of his opponent and said "Until you meet it: no debates." Guy wouldn't release whatever it was- no debates.
Now, again, that's comparing apples to rocks. Rick Perry could basically have been elected Governor as many times as he wanted. Any debate would only have helped his opponent.

We're actually doing a ton to bring our investments into order over the next few months. They are a mess.
Haven't finalized anything yet. But since we're young, and handing retirement plans via other investments, liquidating to pay off debt (which FWIW got locked in at 6.5% because, unlike what the idiot demcrats would have you believe with #dontdoublemyrate, used to be the standard rate of Stafford loans.)
Anyway, liquidating it might be the most viable option (but we may go another route.)
Benefit to the loan sitatuion is it's basically a form of refinancing, but the interest is paid back into the 401k.
As it goes I'm planning on 2 things not existing 1) Social security
2) the supposed "pension thing" my wife supposedly has. I assume the federal government will go broke long before either of those apply.
(Acutally there's a sort of "3" in there too, I assume my wife won't have anywhere to work in about 10 years.)

Posted by: CharlieBrown'sDildo at May 28, 2015 01:26 PM (Zu3d9)
Is this criticism or praise of Reagan? Because if it's praise it is misdirected as the federal government expanded quite dramatically under Reagan so he obviously did not know how to balance the budget nor did his appointees know how to do that. Now you can argue that because Congress was controlled by Democrats there wasn't much he could do. Which I think is largely accurate as we saw balanced budgets under Clinton when the GOP controlled the House. Reagan may have popularized the present conservative agenda but Gingrich had more of a role in actually putting it in place (however short-lived that turned out to be - thanks Dubya).

I've talked with some former Reagan people, two of them pretty high up, and they said that what it came down to was this: the absolute imperative to confront and roll back the Soviet Union.
It was the top priority of the Reagan team. And they understood, unlike Obama, that you can only have one "top priority" at any given time.
Achieving that goal required huge new expenditures, especially in light of Reagan having inherited Jimmy Carter's "hollow military".
And the Democrats on Capitol Hill refused to give Reagan funds for rearmament unless he quietly assented to business as usual on their profligate domestic spending.
Simple as that.
Liberals held American national security hostage in the crudest and cruelest way, just in order to keep their personal pork troughs brim-full.

Right, but this is where the government level math comes in.
The article says "in the same price bracket as regular meat" (roughly quoted.)
But they're using the price bracket for the wrong type of meat (assuming, like most democrats that it's all of the same value).
Hell, 80/20 meat is what I use for burgers, and that shit is cheap at Sams. About $3/lb.
I find it highly unlikely they'll be able to grow anything approaching a steak in our lifetimes.

I would love that too. But, reality intrudes.
Boeing had serious problems for years when they opened up their new jetliner production line down in South Carolina.
How serious? They took the creme de la creme of the applicants for assembly jobs, and then found that they had to explicitly formally train the majority of them in how basic hand tools work. Which direction to turn a screwdriver.
It wouldn't be much different anywhere else in the country. And of course all of these people vote. Not only the creme de la creme.

Indeed, white male is the minority in medical schools these days. By raw stat's you'd expect them to be about 40% (roughly 80% of the US is white, half of that male.)
Last I checked they were closer to 25%.

Also, his deflection is hilarious.
At best (and I'm being generous here) all he's saying is that his "evil privilege" has more or less been transferred to a new group.

For steak yes.
For either babyback or spare ribs I find that level of cooking to mean that the meat will be tough and stringy.
YMMV.

I don't care if a candidate is "just like me." I don't give a crap if
they can pump their own gas or know what a UPC scanner is. What I care
about is if the have a basic familiarity with life and economics, and if
they can do their job. Hillary actually had a job, of sorts, as a
lawyer, but I doubt she has much familiarity with ordinary American
life.
---------------------
For Hillary, "ordinary American life" is what she ran away from at college when she was an angry young Alinskyite lesbian with a playboy beard. Like everyone on the Limousine Left, she looks at "ordinary American life" through the limo windows and thinks she knows better about organizing the peasants' lives than they do.

In fact, the wife was unaware there even was such a thing (or at least never thought about it). When we say "ribs" it universally means "pork" here.
I wouldn't even know what the proper cooking temp or protocol for beef ribs is!
