Over verbosituation
This from the AP story about the “Obama trap” today 2/14/10
“I think the greatest risk for Democrats is passing nothing,” said Rep. Gerry Connolly, D-Va. “There are a lot of things the public may not support in a given moment, but later on, when things have quieted down, they may think of highly.”
An overhaul of U.S. health care could fit that description, he said.
This is an over use of words. It beats around the bush as to blur it’s real meaning. In all its cacophony it simply says the “We don’t know what’s good for us.”
In 1992 I was called by a staff member of Joe Lieberman. It was a survey about what I thought was the biggest concern of mine in respect to the government roll in improving my life. I replied that I thought the governments roll was the biggest problem. The pollster ignored my answer and proceeded as if I said “There is a health care crisis and I think the Government should fix it.” Her next question was what do you think the government should do to fix health care. The poll went on just like that until she had filled out her poll sheet and nothing I said effected the results of the poll. The poll was designed to either convince me or prove a result they had already surmised. I don’t think of Health care as being the project of Lieberman but the Clinton’s. They are the one’s who told America we had a Health care Crisis. The government has interfered for 18 years and the “Crisis” is worse than ever.
Let congress produce a single example of a well run, efficient,cost effective,agency or project produced therein. Against their list of zero (0) I submit All the departments of our federal government. Like our Dept of energy conceived to make us energy independent? How many years and Trillions have been spent and the results? ZIP.ZERO. Post Office. Putting itself our of business tax free while UPS and Fedex and others flourish. The rates go up and the service goes down. Before long the Post office will not function at all and the paid postal workers will become a terrorist group. How about that Education department. Did you notice how our schools have improved in the decades of their stewardship. Me either
So instead of telling the citizens of this once great country to sit down and shut up Congrsess should be apologizing for their performance, and attitude. Then look for a job where performance isn’t necessary.
It would appear that Congress doesn’t know what is good for us. Hey Congress, ” Sit down and shut up.”
