I write this as the President is just hours away from signing the new health care bill. Curious that among the first items to get action will be:
1. Hiring 16-17 thousand new IRS agents. And this improves the health care system how? These new jobs are to "monitor" things. Monitor what? Maybe you and me? Might it make more sense to hire 16-17 thousand health care professionals? You know, doctors and nurses and stuff?
2. Restaurants will now have to publish the calories of each foot item on their menus. I don't know about you but I already know that double-bacon cheeseburger is likely full of calories. But all this means added expense for the restaurants, and this expense of course will be passed on to customers.
Just some of the "meaningful reform" coming our way.

- Tea anyone? A Tea Party Blog.
- Both parties, Democrats and Republicans alike have let us down. We've let them. Enough is enough. Above all, be polite and peaceful. There are indeed some good honest people in Washington on both sides of the aisle. Too many however have run amok, drunk with power, in powerful leadership positions which demand term limits. Let's take our country back at the polls this November. We start today.
