Liberalism taken to its logical conclusion…

…in the form of youth baseball. Liberals want to make everyone feel better. Great concept. The only problem is, they do it by bringing down the top performers and artificially supporting, in Obama’s words (but I like to credit them to Jesus), “the least of these.” Taxing the rich more than everyone else, increasing the minimum wage, welfare, nationalized health care, Social Security…all lauded by liberals as advancing the American way.

He threw a cricket out. “She said, ‘Papa, hold my fishing rod. I’ve got to go potty,'” Hayes said in a phone interview.

As the girl walked the few feet back to the house with her grandmother, Hayes dutifully held the rod. Then — boom.

The rest of the story is here.
