Republicans love their pork as much as any other party. Congresswoman Betty McCollum (D-MN) is offering a conservative plan to remove government funding of NASCAR and other sports. Any true Conservative knows that the government has no business funding race teams or fishing events, but the hypocritical Republicans scum are only "conservative" when they don't like what's being funded. Under such a bitter lens, cerebral NPR is cut, while troglodyte NASCAR and the NFL are sacrosanct.
Since it seems our government is bound to spend excessively, let's use the billions we waste on pro sports and fix a few bridges with it. Let's end these stupid wars and exercises into empire and bring that money back home and build a few rail lines.
Republicans, if you want to have any credibility, you'll support conservatism, regardless of the side of the aisle from which it's offered.
Say it right, the proposed legislation does not block anyone but the military from sponsoring a NASCAR team. So if DHS or some other agency wants to do it, no problem with regards to this legislative restriction, just not the guys in uniform. If you're going to make limits on government advertising spending, they should be broad and not concentrated on the military to the exclusion of everyone else.
ReplyDeleteI'm in favor of everybody categorizing all government spending in wide 10% bands. I don't think NASCAR sponsorships hit the bottom 10% but bottom 20% of government spending? Sure.
To get to a balanced budget, you've got to drop the bottom four bands. I want a balanced budget.
