Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?…Let’s do iiiiiiit!

Sorry, but I just can’t help thinking about Bluto’s charge when I read about yet another road show of elites barnstorming to tell people to…stay off the roads. And in the US Senate and House, after six years of we-know-the-problem-we-know-the-solution-the-US-is-being-left-behind- these- hearings-are-merely-irresponsible-delaying-tactics -and-we-must-act-now, each body sets up new, special panels for the purpose of holding two years of hearings, including of course “field hearings” even among their European constituency to tempt Americans to accept Europe’s policies…a move immediately aped by the European Parliament.

Help me out here; why do we continue to see such carnivals if, as the carnies themselves insist, they are unnecessary because the public are with them and demand action? I guess it just means that a few noisy types are with them, but quite obviously the public actually are not. And for good reason.
