Politicians Pair Off For Their Big Night (Not Ours)

Care about principles? Then the only time you want your representative to reach across the aisle is to grab a Democrat or an errant Republican by the throat. What about sitting together at the biggest “Stalinist extravaganza” (http://barelyablog.com/?p=33815) of the season, the State of the Union Address? “More than 60 members have signed up to sit next to one of their colleagues from a different party,” reports CNN (http://www.cnn.com/2011/OPINION/01/25/brazile.congress.sit.together/index.html?hpt=T2). Reporters are giggling and cooing over who’s dating whom. I could not care less about the seating silliness. Let the statists play at symbolism. It’s a matter of time before tea partiers, bar the Pauls, slip between the sheets with their big-spending profligate pals.

Watch the formations—the twosomes and the threesomes into which the pols pair. That ought to tell you something about future alliances.

    Tom McClintock has a 30 year track record in Ca , of not slipping between the sheets with the big $$$ elites….. I doubt he will in the District of Cretins either

    Ahhh – the old man-to-pig-to-man-to-pig seating at the last sentence of Animal Farm – while the lower animals are getting sold down the proverbial river. BIPARTISANSHIP means that the Democrats get their Welfare State, the Republicans get their Warfare State, Archer Daniels Midland gets their Ethanol Subsidies, Goldman Sachs gets their bailouts, government grows, freedom decreases, and the deficit is an exponential riding an exponential. Everyone smile!

    Myron,
    Truer words were never spoken about The State of the Union!!! You should have delivered the “working stiff’s rebuttal”, after the republican rebuttal, tea party rebuttal, leftist, talking-head rebuttal, imposter right rebuttal …. etc.

    I wasted time trying to avoid all the commentary when I should have simply read your comments and gone to bed.
