Joe Barton ignores reality, claims victory.

The man is oblivious to what’s really going on.

“However, I got involved as a Congressman because this isn’t just an extracurricular activity, it is a billion-dollar, interstate industry that impacts many public schools which are funded with taxpayer dollars,” he said. “This is not just about on-field competition, it’s about compensation. I believe that a playoff will go a long way to restoring fairness to both.”

That’s Jim Delany you can hear snickering in the background.  Although he’s no doubt appreciative that Barton can turn his attention back to where he’s needed, protecting the vulnerable oil and gas industry.
