Liberal Blogger Sees NYC Steam Explosion, and Blames Bush

This was at the "Northwest Progressive Institute" blog, h/t Michelle Malkin.

"Regrettable accidents like this could be prevented if we spent our money on actual needs - like maintaining and enhancing our infrastructure instead of launching preemptive attacks against other countries and overextending the military force that is supposed to protect the people of this country, not incite more angry feelings toward America by serving as the de facto police force in another nation whose people do not want us there."

I'd say that whoever wrote this must be a huge advocate of socialism. Want to know why? The maintenence and enhancement of the infrastruction of New York City is the responsibility of...*drumroll please*...New York City! Not the federal government. So I'm failing to see the real connection between the failure of New York City to maintain their pipes (which, to be honest, are pretty aged) and our occupation in Iraq, which is maintained by the federal government.

The only connection can be made by socialist, because the fact is that this person advocates a heavy-handed federal influence and less responsibility and influence from the state and local levels of government...which is part of a socialist government.

Next thing you know, that explosion will be labeled an inside job, as well. Somehow, George W. Bush and his daughters will have placed bombs in those pipes the night before.
