Seeking to Kill The Canary in The Coal Mine

February 12th, 2011 · Comments Off on Seeking to Kill The Canary in The Coal Mine

“We think what we can be is the canary in the coal mine,” Republican Representative Darryl Issa told reporters. Congressman Issa’s words are prophetic — evidently he and his colleagues consider themselves to be the ‘canaries in the coal mine’ since they are taking steps with the newly introduced Continuing Resolution to kill off as […]
