A MODEST PROPOSAL

In a hierarchy, every employee rises to his level of incompetence. Sound familiar? Peter’s principle plays itself out at the highest level of American leadership in Barrack Obama. And to add insult to injury, contradiction is at his administration’s core. Pity poor America under Obama. We’re awash, drowning in liberal agendas.

First, two new government studies indicate that 1 in 100 children have autism disorders. Really! Why has the human condition at the healthiest time in the history of the world regressed? According to the studies, greater awareness, broader definitions and spotting autism in younger children may explain some of the increase. "The concern here is that buried in these numbers is a true increase," said the director of National Institute of Mental Health. Is this the best that an incompetent bureaucracy can do? Words like MAY explain, SOME of the increase and a TRUE increase obviously are designed to equivocate. Can there be any truth in the politically motivated lie that this study puts forth? There are, of course, lies, damned lies and then statistics generated by re-defining autism, by putting more spotters out there to count its existence and by including younger children in the data. Consequently the numbers will go up by design. This is business as usual in liberal land.

Second, I point out another example of business as usual. Following a drought, monsoon rains in India have flooded certain areas, virtually submerging whole villages. 200 are dead and 750,000 displaced. According to the STATISTICS above, the new estimate would mean that 673,000 children have autism. Now my solution to both the incompetency of nature and our liberal, Obama government in Washington: export our so-called autistic children to India. There where it truly takes a village to raise or lose a child, our flawed autistic children will grow up (or not) learning that only truth, i.e. realism, conquers lies.
