Big Government Knows No Bounds
Here's another case of big government headed by liberals who are determined to make eveyone conform to their standards no matter how ridiculous the rules and no matter how ridiculous the penalties. It's "we know what's best so you better do what we say or else." Here's part of the article on that with its comments:
For more than 300 years, the stamp of the crown on top of a pub glass has stood as a guarantee that it is big enough to deliver a full pint. But this British tradition has now fallen victim to the extension of the EU's tentacles into national life....Critics fear the loss of the crown will be followed by the loss of the pint itself, with British drinkers being required to switch to continental metric measures.
Consequently, the new glasses now appearing in British pubs and bars carry a CE mark - which, in French, stands for ‘European Conformity'.
Already greengrocers have been hauled before the courts for refusing to abide by EU rules that fresh produce must now be sold in kilos and grams, rather than pounds and ounces.
Yeah. Let's keep those grocers and tavern owners in place, especially since all of the big problems in Europe have been solved. What would we do without the left telling us how to live? With the Democrats taking over Congress this week, we might expect the same attitudes being expanded over U.S. citizens.
And of great concern, will this step change the focal point of "beer goggles?" Maybe the metric pub glasses could make even liberals look attractive--but, it might take a few more drinks.

Susan, no one is being forced to convert to Christianity, and you weren't...you have been just informed of it, and God gives you free will, unlike the liberals who think that everyone must conform to their commands. In God's case, you risk eternal separation from Him. In the case of liberals, you risk consequences at the point of a gun if you don't go along with their government. It seems to me that the killings and the ones left behind have been and will continue to be the responsibility of people like you.

Woody, woody, woody, you are the last word. Surely you see this as a matter of whose dog is being kicked. I seem to remember that the last several years your warnings were all about what would happen when the lefties, commies, democrats et al got into power. I never seem to remember that you have offered a positive about the righties, et al. Do you have a solution to all the problems that you point out, or should your people just eliminate the leftist dogs? Why do I suspect that you just get your kicks out of denigration of any that aren't of your political persuasion?
