    Bad governance is bad for business...

    Here's Obama yesterday 'scolding' Africa for its governing practices. The cognitive dissonance is deafening:

    "No business wants to invest in a place where the government skims 20 percent off the top, or the head of the Port Authority is corrupt. No person wants to live in a society where the rule of law gives way to the rule of brutality and bribery. That is not democracy, that is tyranny, and now is the time for it to end."
