Bob McCarty Writes

Michelle Malkin writes this afternoon about Sen. Tom Coburn (R-Okla.) delivering “a rousing defense of the ‘Party of No’” a short while ago in the nation’s capitol:

“We’re accused of being the party of no,” he said. But “no is a wonderful word. When your child is misbehaving, you say no. When someone’s stealing liberty, you say no…Saying no at the right time saves lives. Saying no at the right time saves money…Saying no at the right time saves liberty.”

It’s the best rejoinder to the empty charge of “obstructionism” I’ve seen and heard. I’ll post the video as soon as it’s up.

Amidst debate on health care reform and trillion-dollar spending bills, I love to see the senators from the state of my birth — Sen. Jim Inhofe is the other — making a lot of sense while standing amidst a bunch of dangerous, liberal fools.
