Or maybe "Nyet" or "Nein" would be more appropriate.

I am rweferring, of course, to the cover article of th ecurrent (February 7, 2009) issue of Newsweek magazine.

The one entitled "We Are All Socialists Now."
The interview was nearly over. on the Fox News Channel last Wednesday evening, Sean Hannity was coming to the end of a segment with Indiana Congressman Mike Pence, the chair of the House Republican Conference and a vociferous foe of President Obama's nearly $1 trillion stimulus bill. How, Pence had asked rhetorically, was $50 million for the National Endowment for the Arts going to put people back to work in Indiana? How would $20 million for "fish passage barriers" (a provision to pay for the removal of barriers in rivers and streams so that fish could migrate freely) help create jobs? Hannity could not have agreed more. "It is … the European Socialist Act of 2009," the host said, signing off. "We're counting on you to stop it. Thank you, congressman."
(If you were able to control your urge to retch long enough to read the article, did you notice how, once again, they took care to point out how bad laws passed by a Dhimmicratic Congress were "enacted by a Republican White House"?)

I'm no anarchist. Not even a "moderate" anarchist like Roberta, who causes true believers (or maybe "true disbelievers", considering) to break out in foaming-mouth-syndrome.

But the government was already too big, and President Hopey-Changey, and the Dhimmicratic party in general, believe they have the Mandate of Heaven to bubble-wrap the American people, no matter the cost.

After all, apparently only us bitter clingers pay taxes anyway, serves us right.
