I just looked at the clock, it looks like this is really the quote of yesterday. Whatever. It’s getting late and I have to get some sleep, but I want you to read this from Smitty at The Other McCain:
I don’t foresee the Democrats taking any ’scorched earth’ approach. No, once they recover from whatever they’re doing to drown their sorrows, the strategic game looks far better.
Make the Republicans appear to be driving, as they have the tempo. Give Mitch McConnell an unlimited supply of rope. Get anything possible passed that can be labeled “ObamaCare” as a fig leaf for the POTUS.
The real problem for the Republicans is the Progressive worm gnawing at their power-lusting hearts. Too few of the GOP in either chamber have rejected the premise of Federal involvement in individual citizens’ medical decisions. Why? My suspicion is that such a train of thought threatens to expose the last century of bi-partisan folly. If the Federal Government hasn’t any business worrying about Smitty’s ticker, then why should it be worried about my retirement, or my income, or mortgage (for non-veterans), or student loans?
Healthcare cuts to the marrow of the question of what tasks are assigned by We The People to which level of government. The bad news about the Federal Government is that it has, with infrequent exception, botched the bulk of tasks undertaken, especially those that involve individual citizens. …..
To Mitch McConnell – please, reject the rope.
“The bad news about the Federal Government is that it has, with infrequent exception, botched the bulk of tasks undertaken, especially those that involve individual citizens.”
The funny thing is that for some reason too many people out there are surprised by this and really do believe that big government can get these things right.
