I honestly can't understand what they've even shooting for with this deal. Makes no sense at all.

Incompetent department demands more money.
In another example of the VA’s lack of progress, the Associated Press last month published an analysis of how well the department has performed since Congress passed the emergency funding package last year. It concluded that, so far, not much has changed.

Why can't they just admit they don't give a fuck what happens to soldiers when they return home? If they did, qualified people would be put in charge of the department, it wouldn't run rampant with corruption and bureaucracy, and it would get enough cash.

It would take a fraction of the manpower and resources that Obama used to staff his first campaign.

It's already well established that to suggest the government or a department of the government is run poorly makes one a racist. The media backs that position. There's absolutely nothing for it.

6400 "lost" IRS emails found. Only Fox and CNN care.

ABC, NBC, and CBS ignore the story and just can't figure out why nobody watches their news programs anymore.

Where the fuck were these 6400 messages hiding? How'd they get recovered?
Regarding efforts in Congress to punish her for not testifying, he said: “It is unfortunate that the majority party in the House put politics before a citizen’s constitutional rights.”

Goddamn.

House shows their disdain for sick vets. How very Republican of them.
By a slim margin of 213-210, the House voted against an amendment Thursday to allow doctors to discuss cannabis with patients in states where medical marijuana is legal.

Fuck you, vets, you're taking our overpriced pills with a laundry list of side effects a mile fucking long.

Hope he recorded all those conversations. Hope he's also independently wealthy and likes spending time in court.

Appeals Court fucks NSA.
Writing for a three-judge panel, Circuit Judge Gerard Lynch said Section 215 of the Patriot Act governing the collection of records to fight terrorism did not authorize what he called the NSA's collection of a "staggering" amount of information, contrary to claims by the Bush and Obama administrations.

Go fuck yourself, US intelligence community.

Mitch McConnell announces to the entire world that he has shit for brains.
The Patriot Act’s counter-terrorism measure, Section 215, is set to expire on June 1, and McConnell is seeking to extend it through 2020.

Fucking seriously. Even when we build in sunset dates to legislation, it's fucking IMPOSSIBLE to let them die. Even when it uses the Bill of Rights for toilet paper. Even when it gives birth to the most far-reaching, unnecessary, and illegal domestic spying in this country's history.

Yeah, let's keep that shit going. This completely bullshit piece of law will live on in eternity. Fuck both parties, may every member of Congress drop dead immediately and rot in hell. Thanks for creating this, you fuckwit, Bush the lesser. Thanks for keeping the lie alive, you asswipe sellout, Obama.

DEA makes a lot of money stealing from random people who have no recourse.

http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs....a-crime

The practice has proven to be controversial. Earlier this year, then-U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder announced measures restricting the use of some types of civil asset forfeiture.

...

The Obama administration has generally pushed forward on criminal justice reform.


Too bad he wont just tell them to stop doing it.

There is no presumption of innocence under civil asset forfeiture laws. Rather, law enforcement officers only need to have a suspicion -- in practice, often a vague one -- that a person is involved with illegal activity in order to seize their property. On the highway, for instance, police may cite things like tinted windows, air fresheners or trash in the car, according to a Washington Post investigation last year.

Yep, sounds legit. Air freshener = covering up drugs. Fuck this country's entire justice system from top to bottom. Corrupt, bloated, greedy, and lazy.

Saw an article yesterday where the IRS is doing the same thing.

That article buries that news under the intentional snubbing the Saudis did to Obama.

This administration is a disaster.
