Joel Mowbray on Labor & ULLICO on National Review Online Rep. Charlie Norwood (R, Ga.) had the best take on the fox-guarding-the-henhouse problem of ULLICO:
I raise a few chickens on my place back in Georgia. I also have had dogs on that property that I have loved very much. However, I would never start letting my dogs eat my chickens. It would naturally be rough on the chickens, and the dogs would never hunt again.
Now I know my Democratic friends love the support they get from labor leaders. I know they want to feed them any last chance they get. But please don't feed them the savings of hard-working American families.
It's bad for the dog, and murder for the chickens. And friends, that dog's already got feathers on his snout that look a whole lot like pension money.
