Déjà vu

I saw this article, and I just had to laugh. It reminds me of a mock 1AC I wrote for debate last year. Here is a excerpt from the article:

"Chinese officials say they want to clean up a pollution scourge fouling the capital and government centers nationwide: bureaucratic gasbags.The problem, Communist Party functionaries say, is that civil servants talk too much — at meetings, in speeches and when speaking off-the-cuff in public...To set an example for his peers, Li Yuanchao, a top member of a key Central Committee department, told the state-run New China News Agency that he is keeping his speeches short during meetings. In one recent video-conference, he kept his remarks to just 10 minutes..."

If only our politicians would follow their example.

Until I write again, au revoir.
