Do citizens really need a disabilities agency?
[Maryland] Gov. Robert L. Ehrlich Jr.'s proposal to create a Cabinet-level Department of Disabilities would fulfill a campaign promise while slightly increasing the size of the government he promised to streamline.Not being a resident of the People's Republik of Maryland, normally I wouldn't give a hoot how they spend their tax dollars. But since this a "first of it's kind" agency, I wonder how many other lefty states are going to follow suit? New Jersey, New York, Californiastan? Of course there will be those calling for a similar position in the Federal Government.

I'd like to think they find the most disabled person they can to fill the position. We'd need wheelchair, learning disabled, attention deficit, eating disorder, and let's see what else. You want her as unpleasant as possible to be around. Chip on her shoulder. Then reporters could ask her about the Federal Reserve system and it would be worth the money. The Onion would post a transcript.
