Rush To Judgment


A rush to judgment with ill-conceived and hasty "solutions" seems to be a common response to any crisis. It is what Lenore Skenazy called yesterday Post-Traumatic Stupidity Syndrome.

President Obama will unveil his proposals for gun control (which he calls gun safety) while surrounded by a gaggle of little kids today. In that light, I think it is instructive to think about some other rushes to judgment coming out of Washington.

TSA.

Patriot Act.

TARP Program.

Stimulus Act.

Need I say more?
