Dummy Dems: They haven't got a clue!

How can Washington restore confidence? Jawboning won't do. Washington has to demonstrate with concrete actions that the nation's policymakers have a clue.

• Raise taxes on a faltering economy? They haven't got a clue.
• Spend so much the nation faces trillion-dollar deficits for a decade? They haven't got a clue.
• Pour on new regulatory burdens? They haven't got a clue.
• Fall asleep on advancing free trade? They haven't got a clue.
• Bail out teachers unions while driving our most competitive companies and their jobs overseas? They haven't got a clue.

With this record, the nation has a pretty good clue why confidence is fading and the economy is faltering.
