Political Humor

This week’s edition of Political Humor Quick Hits is about deficits, spoiled children, and wasteful spending…

When Will the Deficit Be Obama’s Fault?

My guess is never:

Nine months into the fiscal year, the federal deficit has topped $1 trillion for the first time…The Treasury Department said Monday that the deficit in June totaled $94.3 billion, pushing the total since the budget year started in October to nearly $1.1 trillion.

The problem is the mental disorder that is Liberalism is like AIDS. It breaks down the immune system, leaving the body unable to fight other diseases. In this case the moonbats are clearly in the throes of Bush Derangement Syndrome.

My favorite part of the story is of course the comments like this one:

“And the federal fiscal year started in October, hence Bush. Really, for being all patriotic, you righties seem to never understand how the government works…”

Hmm I thought federal budgets were written and approved by Congress? I know, the President submits his recommendations but it is the responsibility, (and I use that term loosely since the lefties do as well), of Congress to write and pass the thing. Last time I checked, the 2009 budget was written by a Democratic-favored legislative system.

But what do I know about civics?

I am one of those “righties” after all. Anyone have a gun and a bible I can borrow? I misplaced mine.

Red Dress A Lot Like the Golden Goose

From the whiny, spoiled department of the news:

The union that represents flight attendants who worked for Northwest Airlines before it was bought by Delta Air Lines is crying foul over Delta’s failure to offer bigger sizes for its signature red dress uniform designed by Richard Tyler.

But can an employee get a bigger size in other colors?

The red dress currently is only offered up to size 18, though a Delta spokeswoman said the airline offers a range of outfits in other colors and styles up to size 28 that flight attendants can wear.

But I want the red dress! I want it now! I don’t care if it means the costs of lawsuits will be passed on to the consumer! I want it now now now!

Good thing nobody ever thought of suing Willy Wonka or the movie would have ended up as an adventure in litigation.

Surprise! Pennsylvania Government Wasted Money

Who cares if nobody actually uses handicapped ramps?

Wyomissing Borough Council members are questioning why the state is requiring the borough to spend $12,000 to install handicap curb cuts at an intersection that has no sidewalks.

As long as complying with the Americans with Disabilities Act helps citizens feel better on the inside, costs should never be an issue. It is only $12,000 after all.
