Wanted by the White House: more sob stories!

From The People’s Cube.

Comrades, President Obama needs your help to raise everyone’s awareness of how the government shutdown is utterly ruining everyone’s lives and destroying everything in its path, and all at the behest of those greedy, evil anarchists, arsonists, extortionists, bomb-throwers, flame-throwers, terrorists, fearmongers, hatemongers, hostage-takers, killers, murderers, and thieves that make up the Tea Party Republicans, who are holding their guns, including assault weapons, to the heads of the American people, strapping explosives to the chests of children, and chowing down on kittens and puppies and bunnies while forcing everyone else to starve to death!

How can you help? By clicking on this link and sharing your courageous story of how the government shutdown has affected you, or more specifically, what the Republicans are doing to terrorize and torture you and take away your right to all the free stuff that makes America great!

Only tales of terror, woe, desperation and despair will be accepted. Your story must include at least one sentence blaming Republicans. Grammar, spelling, punctuation, facts and coherence are not important—what IS important is how horribly you are suffering!

We also accept photo selfies of you holding up a sign telling Republicans in your own unique way that you want your government back.

Undocumented/Aspiring Americans, Non-Aspiring Non-Americans, and children of all ages are encouraged to submit! As you can see at the above link, there is absolutely nothing that says you must be at least 18 years of age or a U.S. citizen to share your story—because let’s face it, the shutdown affects EVERYONE on Earth!

We will not accept any of the following: Anything that blames Obama and/or the Democrats. Any accounts of self-reliance. Of how people are making do. Of the many ways people are managing to get by without all that government, in its benevolent goodness and good benevolence, provides. Of the mythical resourcefulness that conservatives claim dwell inside every human as some sort of God-given free will crapola. Anyone who says the government shutdown is affecting them in these or other so-called “positive” ways is a ten-Pinocchio, raging, flaming Pants-on-Fire LIAR! (continue reading)

Obama Cares? BULL!

I googled “Ambert Alert” and got http://www.amberalert.gov/‎ which is described as “a site by the Department of Justice that provides information on AMBER alerts, Public Service Announcements, a child safety guide, news, and a tool kit for …” Clicking on it got me:

2013_10 06 Amber Alert website shut down

Clearly, all that “if it saves just one child” was just hot air … and not the kind that comes out of a person’s MOUTH.

I can see not maintaining a nonessential website, but why do they need to shut it down completely? It doesn’t need anybody there to be seen and navigated, does it? I have a website. It’s there all the time, regardless of whether I bother to update it.

How many barricades would the administration have had to not put up in order to afford to keep the Amber Alert Web site operating?

Obama cares BULL

Captain Zero closes ocean, keeps fave links open

2013_10 06 Obama closes ocean

The National Park Service informed watermen that they are not permitted in Florida Bay until the feds get back to work. That means that more than 1,100 square miles of prime fishing is off limits, affecting tour operators and fishing and paddling guides. Enforcement rangers will be on duty.

Troops deployed to fight Obama’s War in Afghanistan won’t get to watch their games either. President Petty Pants isn’t allowing Armed Forces Network to broadcast American sports overseas.

At home, military cemeteries and memorials are barricaded AND the commissaries where military families buy groceries at a discount are shut down.

Guess what ONE non-essential military facility is NOT closed down … go ahead. I’ll give you ONE GUESS. … President Obama’s favorite 18 holes – the Andrew’s Air Force Base Golf Course – is OPEN.

They say it’s because the golf course is paid for by green’s fees. Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight. Just like how Mount Vernon and a bunch of other places they’ve shut down are funded. And how about the commissaries? You telling me the money the families spend there doesn’t PAY FOR THOSE PLACES?

O-bullies kick oldsters out of privately owned homes

Thanks to President Stompy Foot, elderly residents were given 24 hours notice before being forced out of their private homes on Lake Mead. They own the homes, but the land is federal. The order affected some 60 families.

Obama’s and Biden’s homes are not just on federal land, but are owned by the government. Just saying.

2013_10 05 Lake Mead residents kicked out of homes

On Twitter, President Petty-Pants’ behavior has sparked a new name for the federally-owned structure wherein he apparently plans to reside for life … The Spite House.

Democrat suckage approaches epic proportions

2013_10 05 Barriers, no water

Oct 5, 2013: In Washington, D.C., a citizen tried to take his usual run along an open-air path and was greeted with barriers, a turned off water fountain and a pushy cop. “I asked him, ‘Why do you have to put your hands on me and push me out when I’m leaving anyways?’ He replied, ‘It’s quicker this way.'”

2013_10 05 Pushy cop at Meml

Oct. 5, 2013: At the open-air Vietnam Memorial, our “closed due to lack of money” government assigned cops AND A DOG to guard the barricaded entrance to a space that is ordinarily unmanned 24/7.

2013_10 05 Cops and K-9 to block open air memorial

We need a new Occupy movement – patriots occupying their national parks and war memorials until President Hissy Fit relents.

Chucking Barry-Cones

Oct 5, 2013: In California today, it became legal for aliens residing in the U.S. illegally to practice law. (I am not making this up.) Maybe when Oblamer arrests us, some of those illegal legal lawyers can represent us pro bono seeing as they no doubt qualify for food stamps and free health care.

The Unaffordable Care Act

Because the Obamacare exchanges are now closed for repairs, a lot of folks are finding it difficult to determine just how much more they’re going to have to pay for health insurance under the new law. To help answer this question, here’s a handy map based on data from the Society of Actuaries that will give you an idea of how much more you’ll be coughing up for coverage under the ludicrously misnamed “Affordable Care Act” (unless you happen to live in New York, Massachusetts, Vermont, Rhode Island, or New Jersey):

You’ll no doubt be happy to hear that House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi considers it “very fair” to jail miscreants who fail, for whatever reason, to do their patriotic duty and sign up for Obamacare.

Oh, and that one guy who managed to navigate the online exchange and get him some of that wonderful low-cost health insurance? He didn’t.

And what about those nice people the government has hired to help us poor hapless schlubs jump through all the hoops necessary to sign up for Obamacare? You can read about some of them here… but be forewarned, it isn’t pretty.

Disgusting!

Park Service Ranger - disgusting

We saw earlier this week how our narcissistic, petty-pants, banana dictator of a president spent more money trying to prevent WWII vets from visiting their own open-air memorial than ever gets spent babysitting the area when the government is not shut down.

Now we hear via Breitbart that the vile little toad has sent National Park Service (NPS) personnel out across the country to shut down HUNDREDS of parks and historic sites that the federal government DOES NOT FUND!

The famous Ford’s Theater — site of Abraham Lincoln’s assassination — is run by a private non-profit group.

Obama had it forcibly shut down.

The Claude Moore Colonial Farm (CMCF) in Virginia receives ZERO funding from the government.

Obama ordered the NPS to barge in to the Farm, without prior notification, and remove all staff and volunteers, then barricade the public access points, right before a scheduled event.

In Arizona, 100 campgrounds are managed by Recreation Resource Management and fully funded by visitor fees.

Obama had all of them forcibly shuttered and all campers kicked out.

George Washington’s home — Mount Vernon — is run by the Mount Vernon Ladies’ Association, a group that takes no federal or state money to operate.

God bless those Southern Belles! They told the NPS stormtroopers to skedaddle. Mount Vernon was staying open.

Newt Gingrich tweeted that Obama wasn’t going to take THAT lying down. No sirreeeeee. He had his Spite Squad barricade the bus turn-around. I mean … those damn Mount Vernon ladies are probably Tea Party Terrorists … or something.
