Pay Grade My Ass

Read Michael Graham on Obama's "pay grade" shuck-n-jive. Short excerpt:

With all due respect, Senator Obama, being President is above your pay grade. And the voters are starting to figure that out.

One could go on and on about the folly of the statement both as a limp-wristed dodge of how he really feels or as political rhetoric guaranteed to make him look weak-kneed. But I see it as a highly ironic reversal. Deciding that unborn babies aren't human, don't have rights and can be aborted in the first place was "above our pay grade". So don't try to self-righteously flip the tables on us, Mr. Abortion. You're all about playing God.
