If You Like Your Job…(You Know How This One Ends)

The CBO came out today with some devastating information about ObamaCare Actually, ObamaCare Is Kinda LIke A Tax and It’s Going to Result in 2 Million Fewer Workers by 2017 “An almost two percent reduction to the numbers of hours worked purely because of the law’s effects is kind of a big deal, and you can bet that this is not going to be welcome news to the handful of panicking Senate Democrats trying to stave off awkward questions about their “yea” votes for ObamaCare by focusing on their economically populist messaging strategy.”  Yep.

Barry’s Minions Have Quickly Responded: White House Pushes Back on CBO Report   “Chairman of the Council of Economic Advisors Jason Furman told reporters that the law would not reduce the hours being offered by employers. Instead, Furman said, ObamaCare allowed greater “choice” — for workers to scale back their hours to spend more time with their children, or to leave their jobs to launch a small business or startup. “This is Barry’s not businesses cutting back on jobs. This is people having new choices,” Furman said.”  ARE YOU FREAKIN’ KIDDING ME????  You gotta see this guy – and he’s Obama’s top economic advisor????  HOLY TOLEDO!

Irony, Much?  Mayo Clinic Employees Get Benefit Cuts, Cost Hikes After ObamaCare  “The premiere health-care provider network and big Minnesota employer will have to cut benefits for its own employees, in part to comply with ObamaCare’s coverage mandates and in part to deal with exploding insurance premiums under the new law.”

Pass the Pork – Oh Wait, It Already Passed.  Senate Ready To Pass The Farm Bill and All Its Non-Improvements  It preserves such important and essential things like the Wool Trust Fund and The Maple Tax Act for Chuckie Schumer.

Senators:  Kerry Admits Obama Syria Policy Is Failing  “In a closed-door meeting, two senators say, the Secretary of State admitted to them that he no longer believes the administration’s approach to the crisis in Syria is working. Peace talks have failed, he conceded, and now it’s time to arm the moderate opposition—before local al Qaeda fighters try to attack the United States.”  Gee, what a surprise.

Oh Goody – Sandra Fluke’s Running for Congress:  Ask For Government to be Your Sugar Daddy, Become a Democrat Congressional Candidate.  Sounds About Right  This seems appropriate:

ICYMI:  Navy SEAL Sniper Chris Kyle Honored at Super Bowl by Joe Namath  “U.S. Navy SEAL Chris Kyle was celebrated for being considered “America’s deadliest sniper” with 160 confirmed kills out of 255 claimed kills. He was shot at a gun range by another veteran on February 2nd of last year. God bless you Chris and all of our fallen brothers and sisters.”

Another Obama Family Excellent Adventure

Obama with his African relatives

Obama with his African relatives

ALOHA, ALL!!

Barry and the wife & kids are going to Africa and we’re paying.  How nice for them.  The Obama Family Trip to Africa to Cost $60 to $100 Million  “Military cargo planes will airlift in 56 support vehicles, including 14 limousines and three trucks loaded with sheets of bullet-proof glass to cover the windows of the hotels where the first family will stay. Fighter jets will fly in shifts giving 24-hour coverage over the president’s airspace so they can intervene quickly if an errant plane gets too close.”  Frankly, I think it’s worth it provided they stay there.

Contrast & Compare….this from HDR reader Steve.  It’s a post written by his brother in France.

Think what you will about Charles DeGalle–politically, I don’t agree with most of his legacy.  But, whatever decisions he made, I don’t doubt that he did what he honestly thought was best for France at the time.  I recently read an interesting book: “The Apprentice” by Jacques Pepin.  Pepin, in his younger days was the personal chef for de Gaulle.  A paragraph in the book, p124, made me compare that time with our current times.
“The general also was extremely honest–to the point of punctiliousness–in dealing with the budget allocated to the kitchen.  My expenses were spelled out in a ledger which I presented twice a month twice a month to a member of the cabinet to obtain money to pay my suppliers.  However, under the General’s orders, I had to keep a special account for the Sunday family meal because the expenses incurred for these were paid for from his personal fund.  Even though he was not wealthy, he felt that the Sunday meal was his own responsibility. For de Gaulle, it was a question of ethics.”
I couldn’t help but think of the stark contrast between that, and Obama’s multi million dollar vacations and meals for himself, his wife, their daughters, the daughters’ friends, the family dog, an entourage of 300, etc, etc.  More like Louis XVI, than president of the US.

LOVE YOU SARAH!!!!!  HERE’S WHAT A TICKED OFF SARAH PALIN HAD TO SAY TO BILL MAHER AFTER HE REFERRED TO HER SON AS RETARDED

Palin Pro-Gun Republican Wins Vacated Democrat Seat in Connecticut  “The special election, held to replace Democrat representative Bryan Hurlburt, who resigned to take a job with the U.S. Department of Agriculture, marks the first time a Republican has won the district in 40 years.”

That’s because there’s no subversive activity happening in mosques.  Obama’s Snooping Excludes Mosques, Missed Boston Bombers  “Since October 2011, mosques have been off-limits to FBI agents. No more surveillance or undercover string operations without high-level approval from a special oversight body at the Justice Department dubbed the Sensitive Operations Review Committee. Who makes up this body, and how do they decide requests? Nobody knows; the names of the chairman, members and staff are kept secret.”

DUH!!  White House Says Syria Used Chemical Weapons, Crossing Line  “The president did not address the administration’s determination of chemical weapons use or decision to extend new military aid to the rebels while speaking at an LGBT Pride event Thursday evening at the White House.”  Of course.  So what are you gonna do, Barry, now that your “Red Line” is crossed??????

I’m SHOCKED I tells ya….SHOCKED!  Obama’s New Deputy CIA Director Has No CIA Experience and a Thing for Reading Aloud Erotic Fiction  (Shaka to Scott)

Media Downplay Their Conflict of Interest  Be sure to check out this story!  You’ll see who Jay Carney is married to and why he’s such a wimp.

Snowden didn’t go through channels.  Maybe this is why.  State Dept Whistleblower, A Career Foreign Service Officer, Seeks Congressional Protection After State Threatens Her Kids 

The Farm Bill – Sure sounds like a good thing to help farmers, right?  Another Bloated Bill Expands Government Even Further  “Among other questionable provisions in the costly bill, more than 80 percent of the spending goes to food stamps, not farmers. It spends half again as much as the last farm bill, passed in 2008. It even taxes Christmas trees and rocks!”

Friday Sarcasm – LOVE this from White House Dossier!  BTW….Dental Hygienists Rock!!!

Top Ten Obama Scandals You Didn’t Know About  by KEITH KOFFLER on JUNE 12, 2013, 12:51 PM

A massive White House Dossier investigation involving more than 40 reporters and 12 dental hygienists has uncovered a startling array of Obama administration scandals heretofore unknown to the public and Congress.

I think you’ll agree, data mining and Benghazi are nothing compared to some of the things we’ve dug up. We were so excited at finding these new scandals that we initially thought we’d keep them all to ourselves. But as a public service, we share with you here the top ten.

*******

1. The White House Easter Egg Roll . . . is fixed.

2. HHS still providing health but has stopped offering human services.

3. Top State Department officials have access to fancy canteen known privately as The Steak Department.

4. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives illegally adding words to its title.

5. EPA officials sent to test streams for pollution seen panning for gold instead.

6. Small Business Administration regularly gives advice to Exxon-Mobil.

7. Obama yelling “Fired up, Ready to Go!” as golf opponents take their swing.

8. Eric Holder to investigate himself by reading his own emails.

9. Biden keeping high IQ secret from the public.

10. Michelle quietly profiting from international crime ring selling Pepsi and Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups to children.

*******

Are there any scandals that you, through your own investigations, have uncovered?

And…..Facebook Wisdom.  This was posted by a member of the Aloha Conservative Alliance:

All politicians should be required to wear uniforms like NASCAR drivers so we can see their sponsors and campaign doners to figure out why they make stupid statements.
