The Sunstein Farewell Lecture

It hasn't gone viral, but a new You Tube video (watch below) is how the administration's outgoing regulations chief sums up his tenure. Cass Sunstein has been running the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs. In a kind of farewell lecture, Sunstein gives a brief history of regulatory activity going back to the Clinton administration. He uses a white board and cartoon illustrations to make his points. Sunstein says the Obama administration has made fewer rules than Clinton or George W. Bush. But he says the economic benefits of the rules, at $90 billion, dwarfs previous administrations. Sunstein heads back to Harvard Law School.

The man is certifiably NUTS. He thinks we need to be eating bugs, that chickens have rights in our courts for inhumane slaughter...(like those ambulance chasing lawyers..."if you died...call our number")Some say he's brilliant. Nah ah!

Show me a man with a graph and I will show you a man that is trying to hide the facts, whatever they are, to prove his own point. Graph are pretty pictures that can be made to prove any,ANY,point. easily manipulated and easily misrepresented.
