What else would you expect from our current administration, renowned for its incompetence and its corruption, but a strange Executive Order creating a broad "Performance Improvement Council," along with a "Performance Improvement Officer" for every federal agency?

At last night's Democratic presidential debate in Las Vegas, CNN moderator Wolf Blitzer spoke for more time than five of the seven candidates, repeatedly getting in the way of substantive discussion by reducing issues to yes/no options.
