"It is the common fate of the indolent to see their rights become a prey to the active. The condition upon which God hath given liberty to man is eternal vigilance; which condition if he break, servitude is at once the consequence of his crime and the punishment of his guilt." -- JP Curran, 1790

Unemployment, inflation, trillions of dollars in debt and going deeper, N.Korea Launcing a Missile, China balking at the Dollar, and the BCS


Based on the items in the title, what would you focus on if you were a member of Congress or the President? We have a group of 'leaders' that don't even bother to read the legislation that they cram down the nation's throat, but they sure as heck can debate the validity of the Bowl Championship Series! Ladies and Gentlemen, this is the type of thing you look at when you have settled the debt, are in the green, and have achieved military victory everywhere in peacetime. We're not there yet, so why is Congress wasting everyone's time with this? I agree that the BCS is a farce, and that we could stand for a national playoff system in College Football...I'd love to see that. However, I'm not sure what the federal government has to do with it. The simple fact is, and you should REALLY pay attention here, is that the federal government has to do with whatever it feels like. That should concern you just a bit.

  1. Yep...that sounds right. Of course, the government want to concentrate on something as important, a “game.” This epitomizes the inaptness of our current Congress who thinks a “game” is more important than anything right.

    But, look at it this way. They cannot screw it up any more than it is already.

  2. I've never understood governments role in "entertainment" of any kind but at least this time it might keep them distracted long enough NOT to do any damage.

I believe in the 1st Amendment. Say whatever you want. If you're a moron, I may point that out...if I have time. :P
