Michele Bachmann has done her share of grandstanding. Is she to be outdone?

This link. Jobs, healthcare, the economy all are key challenges to our legislature.

What's up? Why this? Isn't it, kind of, setting very questionable priorities? And bordering on wasting time, resources, political good will? Isn't it throwing red meat to the "nanny state" naysayers? Am I wrong?

This is troubling to me in ways I will leave unexpressed. Form your own views. Read the Economist item. It is short. It offers a perspective from a distance of something that, in my view, does not reflect particularly well on the State and its legislative priorities.
