Rush to Wait by Thomas Sowell on National Review Online
The big story last week was the incredible congressional rush to pass a bill that was more than 1,000 pages long in just two days — after which it sat on the president’s desk for three days while the Obamas were away on a holiday.
There is the same complete inconsistency in the bill itself. Despite the urgency in President Obama’s rhetoric, as well as in Congress’s haste in passing a bill which few — if any — members had time to read, much less consider, most of the actual spending will take place next year at the earliest.
Not even the most Alice-in-Wonderland actions will arouse the suspicions of those who have what William James once called “the will to believe.”
Otherwise known as “guzzling the Obama Kool-Aid.”
