Bottled Water Hypocrisy

Apparently, Mayor Newsom–one of the first lawmakers to condemn bottled water and bar government agencies from buying it–has a separate standard for himself! A partially empty case of bottled water was recently discovered in his car. Supposedly, the water belonged to his security detail. But a spokesman for the Mayor admitted: “The mayor will be the first to admit that he occasionally indulges in bottled water .. . It’s not something he’s proud of.” Good grief. If he thinks it so bad that others should be denied access, the least he could do is not indulge! It just to goes to show, bottled water is valued even by those who condemn it. I just wish they valued our freedom as much.

People were complaining they are baking in his office. One standard for them and another standard for us. Isn't that how it works?
