i doubt he is an idiot. gov Pataki asked him to head up special task force on ny state tax problems. Trying to keep on topic I'll only point out that, if anything, the above should be used as evidence to support the contention that Kudlow is an idiot. What it really proves is that Pataki already knows what he wants to do and wants to hire an adviser who will recommend that he do it. That's what Pataki always does. One thing about appointing Kudlow, there's no danger of his engaging in dangerous activities like impartial analysis or original thinking. Kudlow is an idiot. This should transcend politics. I'll freely admit, for example, that Barbara Boxer is an idiot evan though I agree with many of her positions. Fair minded supply siders should be able to do the same with Kudlow.

I'm just saying we are in a bear market. Raise your hand if you think we're in a bull market? OK, Larry Kudlow and some wingers like Lazarus Long. Otherwise its unanimous and the numbers don't lie, this is a bear. CNBC does poorly with their ratings in bear markets, and this bear has gone on for years, assuming 03 was a countertrend rally. So they are trying to fill up the lineup with "fluff" like Dennis Miller and other non-financial news. Bad for them, because there are too many sources for non-financial talkshows and CNBC is a financial news channel period. I don't know what they can do but wait until the 10 year bear market or however long it lasts is over. This is a 70s-style investing climate particularly as it pertains to equities. In other words it sucks
