Today’s lesson for UVA students: Fight subpoenas

If you’re a liberal, you get to have your own rules. You get to attack Karl Rove when he fights a subpoena. You get to protest at every fundraiser he attends while he does so. You get to have liberal editorial boards back your efforts and call on Rove to “do the right thing” and act like they support the law.

Then when Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli subpoenas documents for taxpayer-funded research, everyone can do a complete 180 and cheer fighting the subpoena. Fighting subpoenas is a good thing for liberals to do. It’s just a bad thing for conservatives to do.

Just like religious involvement in politics – it’s bad for conservatives, but just peachy for liberals.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi can tell church leaders “I want you to speak about it from the pulpit” about amnesty for illegal aliens – “You have to tell them,” she says.

If a Republican Speaker of the House told churches what they “have to tell” their congregations, liberals would be in full attack mode.

But it’s liberal Nancy. Editorial writers agree with her. No problem.

Same thing with whether or not someone should fight a subpoena. If you’re liberal, yes. If you’re conservative, no.

Cuccinelli’s probe concerns research on Global Warming-that-isn’t-warming-so-we-better-call-it-climate-change.

Virginian-Pilot Editor Donald Luzzatto said on WHRO’s What Matters that research is “what a University is about” – certainly news to the students who are paying untold thousands for an education.

Now, UVA has asked the courts dismiss Cuccinelli’s subpoena seeing if taxpayer dollars were used appropriately. Why?

Liberals don’t like to be questioned. That must be it.

If someone sneaks across the border and illegal enters the country, liberals think that when a police officer asks if that person is a citizen, the police officer is the problem.

Liberals think that when they get government funding for research, and someone from government wants to question to make sure that no fraud was involved, the question is the problem.

“This investigation is a threat to scientific discoveries everywhere,” Francesca Grifo, the Union of Concerned Scientists ‘ director of scientific integrity, said in a statement. “The University of Virginia is right to stand up to this bullying and fight for the ability of scientists to do their best work.”

The Union of Concerned Scientists???? Oh, that’s just funny. What are they gonna do? Go on strike? Get a job in the private sector for once in their lives?

But see..they don’t even want to be questioned! If everything was on the up and up, wouldn’t they want to say “Here’s the paperwork. Taxpayers paid for it. We’d be glad for the public to see the work they paid for?”

But they don’t. They want the checks to keep rolling in, and want no one to ever question what they did while taking all the money.

The ability of scientists to do their best work? Here’s a notion. Teach a class. Do your darn research without sucking up to taxpayers for your salary.

See, we taxpayers like to have a thing called “oversight” when it’s our money being spent. As long as I’m footing your bill, you are accountable to me.
