For some reason, my office has been overrun with cockroaches the past few days. It may be a general migration with my office building in the path of migratory cockroaches, intent on reaching some far off cliff and subsequently hurl themselves into the sea. It may also be that it's time to spray the building perimeter with insecticide.
The unfortunate side of the Great Cockroach Migration of 2010 presented itself this morning as I came into my office to find that cockroaches had been dancing the Watusi on my computer keyboard. Oh, and it looks like the printer had another party going. And the telephone....
Now that I've cleaned up the little presents my non-paying occupants left (where did I leave the disinfectant?), I am struck by the similarity between the cockroaches and Congress.
Cockroaches...
Congress...
Hmm. I wonder....
Oh well.
Congress has been dancing the Watusi on our keyboards, so to speak, for a long time. The members of Congress have become creatures of the night, sneaking around the walls, taking drinks in the toilet, and leaving us all little presents for us to clean up when the morning comes.
There is no disinfectant in the world strong enough to completely wipe away the current mess of debt, spending, über-regulation, and class warfare gifted us by the current Congress. Yet we shouldn't be surprised when the cockroaches...er...um...members of Congress act just like cockroaches...er...um...politicians.
It's time to clean up our country and help prevent Congress from sneaking in at night to dance the Watusi.
