And On This Most Joyous of Christian Holidays
.
The latest is from Michigan.
Under a new budget proposal from State Sen. Bruce Caswell, children in the state’s foster care system would be allowed to purchase clothing only in used clothing stores.
Yes, my friends, it is The Grand National Humiliate an Orphan Day in Michigan. I mean, by golly, those kids already have it so cushy.
And shoes and socks? They don’t need no darn shoes and socks; it just makes them wussies. What this country needs, by gawd, is some tough orphans.
And what’s better for building character than second hand underwear? Answer me that, Mr. Bleeding Heart Liberal.
But, Caswell has this thought —
Casswell says the plan will save the state money, though it isn’t clear how much the state spends on clothing for foster children or how much could be saved this way.
You know, if telling little foster children where they can buy their clothes is Caswell’s idea of smaller government, I’d hate to think what he believes big government is.
And, yes, of course, he claims to be a Christian.
I hope he gets second hand eggs for Easter.
By gawd, I do.
Thanks to Robert for the heads-up.
