I never thought that Weird Science, the tongue-in-cheek song by the 1980s band Oingo Boingo, would be so relevant in the world of politics today and the man-made drama swirling around the nations cesspool, formerly known as Washington, D.C.
Weird Science
Plastic tubes and pots and pans
Bits and pieces and
Magic from the hand
Were makin
Weird Science
Things Ive never seen before
Behind bolted doors
Behind bolted doors, indeed. I am positive the Chicago-style political techniques employed by the Obama Administration to convince those few remaining skeptical Democrats and independents to vote for the government take-over of our nations healthcare would make water boarding Islamo-fascist terrorists look like an Oprah interview. Water-boarding Islamo-fascists got Nancy Pelochios panties in a bunch but strong-arming her fellow Congress-critters into voting for Congresss version of this swollen governmental take-over of 1/6th of our entire economy was done without batting an eye (which in Queen San Fran Nans case is difficult if not entirely impossible considering the number of facelifts shes undergone, making it physically impossible for her to even blink, let alone bat her eyes).
Weird science
Magic and technology
Voodoo dolls and chants
Electricity Were makin
Weird science
Fantasy and microchips
Shooting from the hip
Something different
Were makin
Now, that the Senate version of this Democrat government take-over of our health care has passed the Senate by a vote of all 58 Democrats and 2 Independents while the other 40 do-nothing, soft-as-a-feather-cushion, inept Republicans standby wringing their collective hands and biting their nails, the two bills ReidCare + PelosiCare = ObamaCare must be reconciled into one gargantuan bill that will eat the US alive.
This disaster-in-the-making is a clear demonstration of the Peter Principle at its extreme; the Peter Principle basically states that, [i]n a Hierarchy Every Employee Tends to Rise to His Level of Incompetence. Since the US federal government is in the process of bankrupting our country with Social Security, Medicaid and Medical, why not trust them with the ENTIRE healthcare industry. I really do trust Obama, Reid and Pelosi when they say that this deal will be budget neutral! (When has ANY government program been budget neutral?)
Weird Science, indeed
