Riffing on an old joke about communism, Paul Krugman says that on TARP bailout issues for self-inflicted wounds of greedy banks, Obama is just like Bush, only different.

A skeptical leftist's, or post-capitalist's, or eco-socialist's blog, including skepticism about leftism (and related things under other labels), but even more about other issues of politics.

Note: Labels can help describe people but should never be used to pin them to an anthill.
