Courts have ruled against Obama's recess appointments.....Negating all rulings the panel has made since Obama pulled his end run around the constitution.

Those ungrateful Egyptians, after being liberated by our one and great Messiah, are protesting Obama and calling him a jerk! How dare they! Do they not know that Obama is our Messiah, their Messiah? Obama is all knowing, all caring, all seeing, and all compassionate. If you are hungry, he gives you food. If you need communication, he gives you Obama-phones. If you need electricity, he gives you solar cells. If you need transportation, he gives you electric cars. If you are thirsty, he turns your water into wine. If are cold, he gives you warmth:

Okay, well, maybe not warmth, but we have everything else we need!
Those ungrateful jerks!

The Americans With No Abilities Act

President Barack Obama and the Democratic Senate are considering sweeping legislation that will provide new benefits for many Americans. The Americans With No Abilities Act is being hailed as a major legislative goal by advocates of the millions of Americans who lack any real skills or ambition.

'Roughly 50 percent of Americans do not possess the competence and drive necessary to carve out a meaningful role for themselves in society,' said California Sen. Barbara Boxer. 'We can no longer stand by and allow People of Inability (POI) to be ridiculed and passed over. With this legislation, employers will no longer be able to grant special favors to a small group of workers, simply because they have some idea of what they are doing.'

In a Capitol Hill press conference, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid pointed to the success of the U.S. Postal Service, which has a long-standing policy of providing opportunity without regard to performance. At the state government level, the Department of Motor Vehicles also has an excellent record of hiring Persons with No Ability (63 percent).

Under the Americans With No Abilities Act, more than 25 million mid-level positions will be created, with important-sounding titles but little real responsibility, thus providing an illusory sense of purpose and performance.

Mandatory non-performance-based raises and promotions will be given to guarantee upward mobility for even the most unremarkable employees. The legislation provides substantial tax breaks to corporations that promote a significant number of Persons of Inability (POI) into middle-management positions, and give a tax credit to small and medium-sized businesses that agree to hire one clueless worker for every two talented hires.

Finally, the Americans With No Abilities Act contains tough new measures to make it more difficult to discriminate against the non-abled, banning, for example, discriminatory interview questions such as, 'Do you have any skills or experience that relate to this job?'

'As a non-abled person, I can't be expected to keep up with people who have something going for them,' said Mary Lou Gertz, who lost her position as a lug-nut twister at the GM plant in Flint, Mich., due to her inability to remember righty tighty, lefty loosey. 'This new law should be real good for people like me. I finally have job security.' With the passage of this bill, Gertz and millions of other untalented citizens will finally see a light at the end of the tunnel.

Said Sen. Dick Durbin: 'As a senator with no abilities, I believe the same privileges that elected officials enjoy ought to be extended to every American with no abilities. It is our duty as lawmakers to provide each and every American citizen, regardless of his or her inadequacy, with some sort of space to take up in this geat nation and a good salary for doing so.'

Guess they need some more laws

All this constant talk from Oblahblah and other democrat politicians about "assault weapons" is pure political theater. Entirely misdirected, entirely misleading, entirely misguided, entirely pretense for political gain.

This is what a mass killer looks like, according to a Department of Homeland Security analysis. He works alone. He uses a semi-automatic handgun. He’s a he. And he probably didn’t serve in the U.S. military.
That’s the conclusion of a November 28 analysis by the New Jersey branch of the Department of Homeland Security’s partnership with state and local law enforcement. The so-called intelligence “Fusion Center� sifted through data on 29 major mass killings in the U.S. since 1999, starting with the Littleton, Colorado school shooting. Its practical advice is to be more concerned by your co-worker with the bad hygiene who mutters about putting his “things in order� than by the war veteran in the next cubicle.

Typically, the immediate deployment of law enforcement is required to stop the shooting and mitigate further harm to victims. Typically, active shooter situations are over within 10 to 15 minutes.

Errr[COLOR="Red"], what's the average response time of law enforcement in your area[/COLOR]? 15- 20 minutes? It took 40 minutes for them to respond to a gang of Crips burglarizing the house next to mine.

And a lesson for Americans about Obama's plans.

David Nicholson, of whom nobody may have previously heard, ran the fifth largest organization in the world. It is far bigger than the British Army, larger than the Indian Railways and the Chinese state-owned energy network. Sir David Nicholson’s fiefdom is actually exceeded only by McDonald’s, Walmart, the US Armed Forces, the Chinese Army and the Chinese railway and may have inflicted more deaths than all of these organizations combined.

Nicholson is a man who never held a job in his life outside of government and activism. “Nicholson joined (the organization) on graduation, and then the Communist Party of Great Britain�. Nor was he just a casual, student Red. Nicholson, according to the Guardian, was a “tankie�, a “term referring to those members of the Communist Party of Great Britain that followed the Kremlin line, agreeing with the crushing of revolts in Hungary and later Czechoslovakia by Soviet tanks; or more broadly, those who followed a traditional pro-Soviet position.� And rung by rung this compassionate man climbed the ladder of (the organization) until he reached its pinnacle.

Care to venture a guess at this point as to what organization he runs?

Although it didn’t make much news in the United States, Britain’s National Health Service (“the envy of the world“) has been rocked by the discovery that it is killing patients needlessly at a rate of knots. According to the NHS’s own bulletins, 40,000 patients needlessly die per year in its hospitals....

In other words a lot of deaths. Not that management didn’t know. The NHS spent 15 million pounds in taxpayer money to prosecute and gag 600 whistleblowers who thought things had gone too far. The man at the center of the scandal was Sir David Nicholson, the Chief Executive of the NHS....

Even the investigative report makes stomach-churning watching principally because the analysis consists of almost a series of cliches. It faults a lack of ‘care’, ‘compassion’, ‘patient centeredness’ and a failure in ‘transparency’ as if it were referring to a breakdown in table manners at a dinner party.

But when report touches on what actually happened to the patients it is the stuff of war-crimes. It is not an exaggeration to say that nothing suggested by the most rabid critics of Guantanamo is half so bad. Baldly put what really happened in the hospital was that thousands of old Britons were left to starve, die of thirst, stew in their waste for extended periods, lie neglected and unmedicated or cast out of the wards at the slightest opportunity.
...

The definition of a faceless bureaucracy is where the individual finds himself at the mercy of a complete non-entity; before a strange man whose only skill was to worm his way up the towers of Byzantium deciding your fate with the Clipboard of Destiny in his hand. But enough of that. When Obamacare finally gets going it bids fair to become far larger than the NHS and supplant it as the new “envy of the world�.

How stupid is stupid? You tell me. All I know is that the Democrats dream of taking back the house in '14 is over.

Here is just a taste of OBAMACARE's impact on the vast majority NEXT YEAR:

"In a private presentation to brokers late last month, UnitedHealth Group Inc., UNH +0.15% the nation's largest carrier, said premiums for some consumers buying their own plans could go up as much as 116%, and small-business rates as much as 25% to 50%. The company said the estimates were driven in part by growing medical costs not directly tied to the law. It also cited the law's requirements that health status not affect rates and that plans include certain minimum benefits and limits to out-of-pocket charges, among other things."
