I know that when I'm a hungry poor kid and I'm given the choice between eating unhealthy and not eating anything at all, I choose the latter.

I've already shared my anecdote that kids don't eat the healthier food, throw it away, and are thus more hungry in the afternoons than they would ordinarily be.

These people are fucking retarded.

Oh my fucking god. Yeah, when I think of the rich and well-off, I'd leave both them off my list.

...and we've done it through dint of hard work.

You didn't build that. Just ask Obama.

Ah, so some IT guys are going to jail instead of the people who actually did evil shit.

Lerner herself twice has refused to answer questions before Congress...

What the fuck? Look, I understand that as a citizen it is within her right to refuse to testify. But as a government employee this action should require immediate dismissal. You can invoke your fifth amendment right without admitting to guilt, but the cost is to lose your job and stop suckling off the public tit. That's the way it should be.

Then give the job to someone else that is willing to answer to the People.

Transparency.
Speaking Tuesday at the Brookings Institution in Washington, D.C., Microsoft General Counsel Brad Smith (pictured) said that the uber-secretive court's operating "is not the type of approach that is likely to promote justice."

When MS calls you "uber-secretive" it's time to have a look at yourself in the mirror.

All mirrors were banned from the Obama White House.

EPA is getting investigated. Claims relevant emails were lost in a hard drive crash.

It seems the leading cause of hard drive crashes these days is to get subpoenaed.

Say, I bet the NSA has copies of all these missing emails for them.

They've got everyone else's, after all.

Isn't the NSA under the executive branch? Well then the NSA had a hard drive crash and lost the relevant emails. We can do this all day.

Now... someone tell me Obama isn't dirtier than Nixon.

Only due to the technicality that Nixon didn't have access to all the toys B. Rock does. Nixon and J. Edgar Hoover would've positively shit themselves with glee given today's intelligence gathering capabilities.

The IRS seems to be the place to be to get IT contracts and not deliver. They spent $4.4 billion the last few years on IT infrastructure. Lots of it on data storage.

I wonder if "sry hard drive crashed" is going to fly if I get audited. I mean, there's a precedent, now.

The auditor would probably find it hilarious and would not at all be vindictive, because the IRS isn't like that and are totally professional.

They're all "phony scandals."

http://cnsnews.com/news....candals

I think there's a significant chance he actually believes this. I sometimes wonder how thick are the walls of the bubble in which he lives. It is hard to believe the guy could be as completely evil and/or stupid as he seems lately... it is easier to believe the evil and stupidity is coming from the cuts of a thousand different knives all getting a little piece for themselves, and they don't let him watch the news, as he says himself in this article.

Ah yeah, that asshole managed to shut down a highway right around the time I wanted to drive on it. Fuck him and his motorcade.
