INCOMING: We Don't Need No Stinkin' Permission!

You gotta give it to 'em for giving their hatchet-jobs names with irony: Clean Skies, No Child Left Behind, New Freedom and now Sunset Commission. Even seniors have a rosier take on what "sunset" should be than this:
OMB Watch - In Congress - Sunset Commission -: "Whether you care about farmers' markets or battered women's shelters, workplace safety or clean air -- important federal programs are all at risk from proposals that would put them on the chopping block.

Learn more about 'sunset commission' proposals, that would force federal programs to plead for their lives before an unelected commission with the power to recommend whether they live, die, or get 'realigned.'"
