This is a blog about Pennsylvania!
It’s the 10 year anniversary of the Bush tax cuts, so where’s the growth?
Republicans sold the tax cuts as a plan to increase long-term economic growth, but there’s no results to show for it besides a bigger deficit and stagnant wages. Is this a 20 year project? A 30 year project? Come on. It doesn’t work.
And yet House Republicans are doubling down on this agenda, and Tim Pawlenty is tripling down on it.
Why?

(Guest post from John Blankstein of Market Street Strategies, and general consultant to Willie Reynolds’ campaign for Bethlehem Mayor) Willie Reynolds’ has attended 97% of Bethlehem City Council meetings since he was elected. His opponent knows that, and he also knows that Willie’s attendance record is better than his own. So how does Bob Donchez–who continually defends [...]

I think Bob Donchez’s goal of increasing homeownership in Bethlehem is actually a really bad idea that will lead to reduced economic development and a less flexible labor market. What Bethlehem actually needs to do is increase its stock of quality rental housing in and around the downtown business districts. It’s not a surprise to hear that Donchez’s [...]

Martin O’Malley and the Maryland Democrats who just can’t lose are going to spend $650 million on transit – over half of the revenue they’ll collect from the gas tax increase. This is how it should be: After the governor signed the bill, his office released a list of “first round” projects that will get [...]

The point of political blogging is not that you’ll directly reach so many voters that you’ll shape opinions about elections. The point is that for every couple dozen low-information voters, there’s a *political friend* who people ask who to vote for the week before an election. The point of blogging is to shape the opinions [...]

Where is the growth?
In ANTHONY WEINER's pants.
Why has this absolute I-am-so-busted LIAR not resigned already?
Would YOU put up with YOUR GIRLFRIEND acting like this?
Do you not remember NANCY PELOSI promising to "DRAIN THE SWAMP" and have the "MOST ETHICAL CONGRESS IN HISTORY"?
I do.
Must I provide the proper research materials for you, Slick?
Has NANCY PELOSI publically asked ANTHONY WEINER to resign yet?
Can you provide a link?
Sorry, What-Am-I-Gettings-From-Big-Government?…
…you are just going way too far with your provocative headlines today and you know it.
You know you want someone to respond to your junior high school stuff…
…so fine, I obliged you.
I would love to know what got deleted earlier…
…you should put it back up. You ruined your own claim of a family-blog the other day with your Teabagging routine. That was all you, bro.

Great work today, Jon.
Gotta give you credit here.
Entertainment value is sky-rocketing today, pal.
Looks like you really hit a nerve with the subhumans, Jon. Congratulations!
Utterly meaningless post. With what happened in 2007-present, whose roots go back to the Clinton Administration, to make comparisons like this show a complete lack of knowledge on the part of the writer.
Or that it's political hackery.
Pick one.
Look, we were told tax cuts would boost growth. We were told tax cuts would increase revenue. Neither one happened. The pre-Recession Bush economy totally sucked. There was zero wage growth and zero job growth.
Sub humans?
So what does that make WEINER?
ha ha
(do you know how many Pornstars YOUR husband has as Twitter buddies?)
I am glad to know that LYING and CHEATING are OK in the PRogressive Liberal Democrat world…
…you guys are such role models for the children!
And more simplistic analysis that ignores what happened.
Jon you're better than this, stop the hackery already.
Jon do you realize how amateurish that sounded? "Doesn't matter why something happened, it happened so we'll draw conclusions while ignoring the facts."
If you're a student you get an F. Unless you're in the Idiot Musician's class, then you're labeled "sharp."
Just stupid.
