Ron Paul, Rick Santorum Suggest Foul Play From Romney Campaign
Don't get U.S. Rep. Joe Barton wrong: He doesn't think Tim Tebow is a Communist. He just thinks the process by which Tebow and the Florida Gators became national champions is reminiscent of Communism.
Barton is the ranking Republican on the House Energy and Commerce Committee's commerce, trade and consumer protection subcommittee, and that subcommittee had a hearing Friday on the pressing issue of whether college football needs a playoff. Barton isn't a fan of the Bowl Championship Series, and he said this:
"That time, I had hoped through a spirit of volunteerism, the BCS would decide to go to a playoff system," he said. "That hasn't happened yet. It is interesting that people of good will - I think everybody on whatever side of the issue is a person of good will - keeps trying to tinker with the current system. ...I think Barton may have gone a tad too far there, but I happen to think he's right that the college football postseason is ridiculous. I'm not sure that this is an issue best left to Congress, but I am sure that I long for a day when we can forget about the BCS. That day isn't coming any time soon, though.
"It's like communism, you can't fix it."
