Comprehensive--a word we need to strike from Washington's vocabulary
We've heard it all. But one word we hear/see too often. COMPREHENSIVE. "Comprehensive immigration reform" and "comprehensive health care;" "Comprehensive environmental response" legislation, and "comprehensive gender strategies;" "Comprehensive Financial Regulatory Reform" and "comprehensive knowledge based yada yada yada." Most of these comprehensive efforts, especially immigration, could be achieved by enforcing laws already on the books, laws that were never fully understood or enforced or funded. But that wouldn't tie up millions of tax dollars in more hearings, writing new laws and creating more agencies to suck up the billions the new laws and regulations will demand.

Murray sez:
But Norma, If they stopped with all the "comprehensives" they wouldn't be able to spin all their crap and keep the natives cornfused! Progressives love putting names on new stuff or changing names on old stuff.
