What a Country!

Today, I purchased a hand-held shower attachment for my travel trailer, the "Bates Motel."
The "manufacturer," Waxman Consumer Group, is headquartered in Bedford Heights, Ohio, with offices in Shenzhen, Red China, and in Taichung, Taiwan.
The shower was manufactured in "China." 
The packaging and instructions are printed in Spanish and English.

Gotta love it:  a "manufacturer" in Ohio must build a factory in Communist China in order to make their products affordable and competitive by avoiding EPA rules, Commerce Department regulations, Federal Trade Commission statutes, Department of Labor regulations, National Labor Relations Board oversight, and, of course, the state and local redundant versions of those offices, boards, and commissions, and, lastly, restrictions from the House Committee on Public Buffoonery, which is, I believe, co-chaired by Anthony Weiner (D.-Rhode..I mean NY) and David Wu (D-pits).
Is it me, or does the printing of duplicate instructions, one in English, one in Spanish, scream of racism?  Does it not imply that Hispanics are simply  too dimwitted to habla Englais?  After all, your tax dollars support six to ten YEARS of ESL classes for Hispanic students, but our own State Department employees are expected to be conversant in Spanish after six MONTHS of instruction.  Either the ESL teachers are morons or you taxpayers are, for allowing this  fraude, this decepcion to continue.

Just for fun, hop on over to:

and see if you can find any place to cut Federal spending...You can do it, I just know you can.

Never Send a Sissy to do a Man's Job...

Portland's mayor Sam Adams,  our testosterone-deficient honcho, wants the city of Portland's employee health insurance to cover sex changes and other treatments for "transgender" employees.
 
 "I think it's fair, and it's common sense," Adams said in an interview with The Oregonian (our impartiality-challenged newspaper).

Adams estimates the new benefits would cost the city (only) about $32,000 a year, an estimated .08 percent increase. 


Is this a great city, or what?   Do I smell brimstone?
