What Are They Smoking?
This is an editorial in the Local Puppy Trainer –
Headline: Using fear to expand D.C. power
Lead Paragraph:
We’re glad to see Republicans gear up to fight the Obama administration’s unprecedented insertion of federal authority into areas of life that traditionally and appropriately have been reserved to the private sector. Indeed, our nation is heading down a dangerous road from which it might be difficult to return.
The body of the piece used to support that lead paragraph and headline is a recounting of the evil perpetrated by the Hedgemony under the Shrubbery.
It does not occur to them that the Republicans are the problem, when it comes to government intrusions into private space, because they are only concerned with the interests of corporations. They were silent about all of the abuses of the Bill of Rights, but vault onto the soapbox when the government might do something about the failures of large corporations to serve the needs of people and the country.
