Larry Summers is mad, isn't he?

After reading this, it is frightening to note that Larry Summers - now leaving the Obama Administration - is considered the 'adult' in the Obami playpen.  Terrifying really.


It takes a worried man to sing a worried song, and in a recent speech that seemed like Larry Summers's swan song, the president's now-departed economic adviser warned that America is "at risk of a profound demoralization with respect to government." He fears a future in which "an inadequately resourced government performs badly, leading to further demands that it be cut back, exacerbating performance problems, deepening the backlash, and creating a vicious cycle."

Words fail me.  Our problems are due to not enough government.  Yeah, that's the ticket.  No wonder the Harvard faculty ran him out.  Although I note they are taking him back.  No wonder the Harvard faculty are taking him back....
