Ministry Of Redundancy

Obama has announced a new money pit to shovel your hard earned dollars into.  It's the Climate ministry, a bureaucracy dedicated to hiding the storm clouds of truth that have gathered over the statist obsession with regulating energy.

The Washington times says they will call this massive new bureaucracy "The Climate Service."

And in traditional Washington fashion, its completely redundant.  The U.S. Global Change Research Program (USGCRP) has been around since 1989 and already does what the new agency would do, along with the thirteen agencies that it works with.  And didn't Obama just announce that NASA'a new mission would be to boldly go where USGCRP has clearly already been?

So I guess the Climate Service will be the Homeland Security office of manufactured science that collects and coordinates the taxpayer funded data already available from all these other taxpayer funded agencies?  (Even though USGCRP also already does that.)

At least we know what Obama meant by creating jobs.  He meant more taxpayer funded union jobs at a government office, cranking out propaganda to fight off all the facts that keep getting in the way of the global socialist conquest of the means of production through energy policy.

I wonder what spending and deficit hawk Hodes thinks about this?  Hooray, I think cover it.
