In the thirty eight years since Woodstock, Free Love has morphed into government hand-outs, or such was Mrs. Clinton’s intent. Robert Novak, Washington Post:
Will the Democratic-controlled Senate approve a $1 million earmark to celebrate Woodstock-era baby boomers, carved out of a bill funding health care and education? It will, because it is sponsored by New York‘s influential Democratic senators, Hillary Clinton and Charles Schumer. It will, because they are promoting the pet project of a big-time Democratic campaign contributor.
Nevertheless, as the Senate began consideration of the Labor/Health and Human Services/Education appropriations bill yesterday, Republican Sen. Tom Coburn of Oklahoma proposed an amendment to eliminate the earmark. The $1 million would go to the performing arts center of the Bethel Museum in Liberty, N.Y., at the site of the original 1969 Woodstock festival. Coburn argues that a “taxpayer-funded Woodstock flashback” would cut into the government’s Education for Homeless Children and Youth Program grants
Well good news Bob. There are ‘rats brave enough to stand-up to Mrs. Clinton. Michelle Malkin posts the honor roll. A big well done to the five brave ‘rats.
