Fox Explains Why SSSCA Is Bad

corbettw writes "Fox News is running an article that slams Sen. Fritz Hollings ("The Senator from Disney") and the Democrats (with the notable exception of Rick Boucher) as having betrayed their principles. More importantly, the article explains why the SSSCA is so bad, in language any American can understand. It's nice to see someone in the mainstream media taking this beast on before it becomes law."

    For all the typical Democrat bashing in the Fox "news" article, it doesn't mention a single Republican who is actually against this POS bill. In fact, the only one who is actually against it is another Democrat.

    The author states the Republicans have an "opportunity" here because they're fed up with Democrats occasionally failing to live up to their "for the little guy" rhetoric. He thinks the public prefers Republicans who are quite forthright about selling laws to the highest corporate bidder.

    It's kind of like saying people weren't mad at Clinton for cheating on his wife - they were mad at him for not divorcing her afterwards - like all the holier-than-thou Republican politicians do to their first-wives.

    In my darker moments I wonder if he's right. But we'll see come election time.
