Cass Sunstein (Obama Regulatory/'Manipulatory' Czar)

"There's a little Homer Simpson in all of us.  Sometimes we have self-control problems, sometimes we're impulsive and that in these circumstances, both private and public institutions, without coercing, can make our lives a lot better.  Once we know that people are human and have some Homer Simpson in them, then there's a lot that can be done to manipulate them."

The "Homer Simpson" reference is a nice way to say we are all ignorant fools, but this kind of talking down to the American people is a given in Obamaville.  So, I'm going to skip over it and go to the important part of the quote.

Let me see if I have this right:  Sunstein doesn't want to "coerce" the American people into acting as he (Liberals) wish, he only plans on getting us to do so through 'manipulation'?  Government manipulation, at that.

Sounds about right!

My other question is:  What exactly is he regulating/manipulating?  Of course the answer is:  OUR ENTIRE LIVES!  Through government manipulation...Which in most historical cases ends up being coercive.

Again, this sounds about right, considering it's coming from a 'man of the Left'...A 'man of the Left' rumored to be very high on President Obama's Supreme Court check list.
