The nationally known Hot Air website featured this week John Locke Foundation President John Hood‘s critique of President Obama’s skills at basic retail politics. Hood’s commentary documented what Hot Air dubbed the “Obamateurism of the day.” Meanwhile, Hood’s continuing contributions to National Review Online’s primary blog, “The Corner,” discussed items such as tax reform deals and the hapless Occupy movement. The Winston-Salem Journal and Triad Business Journal interviewed Hood for jobs-related articles. N.C. Senate Republicans promoted Hood’s columns this week on the Occupy movement, the history of the Declaration of Independence, and the future of federal farm subsidies.
