Henry Waxman is feeling like a big shot these days, what with the narrow passage of the unavailable and unread 1,300+ page cap & trade bill and a new book hitting the liberal spin market.
He’s feeling so big, in fact, that normal concerns expressed by any responsible person who wonders how you pay for something when you not only have no money, but have massive amounts of debt and no way to repay it, now earn the Waxman’s scornful moniker of “unpatriotic”. Yes, Americans, in Henry Waxman’s world, if you don’t think you should spend money you don’t have, you’re some sort of a traitor. In his own words: “…want(ing) to deny President Obama success … means, in my mind … rooting against the country, as well.”
Sorry, Henry, old boy, but fiscal responsibility is both as sensible and as patriotic as baseball and apple pie. No matter how you twist facts, no matter how much Obama and now the G8 think they can control Nature (laughably, today they all agreed to “keep” the Earth’s temperature from rising no more than 3 degrees Farenheit), the truth is that you are only trying to force your will upon the majority for the ill-gotten gains of a few. And patriotic Americans, those who support her and the Constitution upon which she was founded, can see right through it and will continue to call it by its proper name.
Wrong.
But baseball is no longer “American”. Sad fact, that most american born athletes don’t make the ‘american’ franchises anymore, as they “the franchises” are recruiting from out of the country. I know, minor detail, but a detail none the less.
Did you see the details so far of the G8 meeting??? China and India said yep you guys make drastic cuts by 2020 and then we’ll see what we can/might do..OOOOKKK that ought’a work real well.
