The Threat From Free Government Weather
Wonkette! reports that vile Pennsylvania Republican Senator Rick Santorum has sold himself out, apparently for a mere few thousand dollars from some of the wheels at AccuWeather and associated family.
The Senator apparently has seen the light that one of the most important issues facing the country (so important that we’ve gotta have a law against it!) is the glut of free government weather over the Internet.
The most surprising part of the story to me is how economical the purchase of a well-known vile Republican can be. It seems that it only took a few key (and surprisingly small!) donations for the Senator to realize that free, tax-supported weather amounts to unfair competition against right, honest, private free-market weather.
He’s not eliminating the department, or anything; just making sure that we can’t get any information from it, at least, not for free.
