Individual mandate pushed back until after the next election cycle. I guess they didn't like losing in Florida yesterday.

Not much of a law any more, is it.

Delay the individual mandate for a year? Necessary. Delay it for a decade? Evil.

Obama - "Just cancel your phone service if you can't afford Obamacare. Also it is all Texas's fault that it isn't working."

The memo must have gone out, there's an open obamacare thread on fark at the moment and half the people are saying their costs have gone up and they can't afford it, and the other half are calling the first half liars.

They're desperate. Initially they were just trying to counter the "my rates went up" with "my rates went down" posts. Now they're getting overrun I think, so they're going Dingy Harry (Reid) on them calling them all liars.

I've never quite seen anything like it. One is accustomed to "strawman" and "citation needed," but these are just people who think the plan is great, and the only reason you would have to be lying is because you want the black man to fail and want to fuck over poor people. They are being vocal about it. And this is like half the people in the country loathing the other half, not just having a difference of opinion.

US Fish and Wildlife service using legal loopholes to get public land closed for energy exploration.
Conservation groups set up a lawsuit in whatever land they want closed, and somehow the lawsuits are getting fast tracked and the land is closed.
The attorney general charges that "by entering into private settlements with special interest litigants, (the Fish and Wildlife Service) has attempted to circumvent the legislative and regulatory process and make fundamental changes to its (Endangered Species Act)-imposed obligations."

Let's Move is Michelle Obama's contribution to our country. It's a program about fighting childhood obesity.
No problem there.
Recently she's been declaring it a huge success with childhood obesity rates falling 43% based on a study performed by the CDC.
As it turns out, that study is bullshit and childhood obesity has more likely increased.
Newsbusters blames the MSM for ignoring obviously flawed data to boost M. Obama.

As far as I know, M. Obama is the one who got rid of 1-2% milk at my child's school, and replaced it with 0%, pure sugar milk.
Bitch.

I had lunch with my kid at school last year on his birthday. Brought him in some McDonald's.
For lunch that day they were serving chicken nuggets, mixed fruit, and some carrot and celery sticks with pita bread and some thing you dip it in.... the name is blanking. Like a vegetable dip. Middle eastern, I think.
Anyway, I watched nearly every kid in there eat the chicken nuggets, drink the chocolate milk, and dump the fruit and veggies in the trash.
All that dumb cunt is doing by forcing schools to change their menus is making kids hungry in the afternoon because they are serving food kids wont eat.

This.
They've stripped the fat and protein out of the meals. It's a bunch of crappy carbs.
I go to lunch with my kid about monthly. What I see is even worse. For some reason kids are allowed to get dessert every day. Often, there's at least 3-5 kids who eat just the ice cream, and dump the rest of stuff.

Our school calls the desserts "extras" and parents can specify whether the kids are allowed to get them at all, or only on Fridays, or whatever. All food is paid for through their accounts with a pin number, and the computer wont allow an unapproved purchase.

You'll be forced to pay a few percent to cover those peeps who don't pay their bills. Again.

Obama says NSA needs to stop collecting bulk data. The unspoken part is "and getting caught."
Obamacare indefensible says Democrats. It's still "fixable." Wonder why the fuck someone felt the need to implement a broken law to begin with.
