I learned about this from Bayou Renaissance Man. http://bayourenaissanceman.blogspot.com/2009/02/pride-prejudice-and-zombies.html

Holy crap! I wish I would have thought of that!

So, even though it is illegal, it looks like the Census will be moved from the Commerce Department to the Whitehouse. That way Rahm Emmanual can control it.

I’m positive that this will show that the population of the Red States has declined sharply and the Blue States population has simply exploded, necessitating a great big shift of congressional seats.  Of course, this doesn’t mirror reality at all, since the fastest growing cities in America are all in Red States, but we won’t let reality hold back Hope and Change.

Can you imagine if George Bush had done this so that Karl Rove could control the Census? There would be so much wailing and gnashing of teeth from the media that you couldn’t possibly miss it. I only heard about this because of talk radio, you know, the one that needs to be controlled with a new Fairness Doctrine.

So, Obama has only been in for a month, and he’s already proposed the biggest pork bill ever, nominated a cabinet full of tax evaders, and now he’s taking dirty politics to a whole new level by turning the US Census over to his own personal Rasputin.

There is also talk of Washington DC getting two senators… Yep, because I remember that part of the Constitution. This is the city that reelects its mayor after catching him on video smoking crack with hookers.

We’re so screwed.

When liberals do it, it is a nanny state, when conservatives do it, I suppose it is because they want to be your Dad.

Mad Rocket Scientist gave me a heads up on this because it is local.

I’ve met Waddoups. I expect better than this, but I shouldn’t be surprised. Utahn’s absolutely hate big government from the left, but we have a contingent here that loves big government when it comes from our side. Some people just aren’t happy unless their meddling in someone’s business.

My buddy’s band is playing their first live gig. Now I know that a lot of you automatically assume that some random dude’s band is going to totally suck, but I’ve known Tom for a long time. We worked together at Hugenormous-Music-Gargantua Inc.  I was an accountant and Tom was a high mackdaddy of all things guitar.  I know that he is absolutely amazing on a guitar, and I’m excited to hear him play.

I’ve been told that because of the state of economy, the government has to do SOMETHING!!!!

Well, apparently, that something is the largest pork bill in history. This thing is made of pig stacked on top of pig, sheathed in bacon, bristling with radioactive pork chops, and cemented together with mortar made of Spam and aerosol cheese. Altogether it is a hulking behemoth of porcine evil capable of simultaneously kicking the living shit out of Godzilla, King Kong, and Gamera the Space Turtle without breaking a sweat.

This is the biggest single spending bill in history. Congress debated it for less than an hour.

I don’t know about you guys, but when I think about what will create jobs, I immediately think of $150,000,000 for bee insurance. I think about billions of dollars going to the frauds at ACORN. I think of 20 billion for foodstamps, billions for arts and entertainment, billions for abortion and contraceptives, billions going to already rich major universities, billions more to go to Pell Grant so that those major universities can just jack up tuition again, billions for every retarded moronic idiotic stinking stupid thing you can think of, and why the hell not? It’s only OUR money.

It isn’t a stimulus plan, it is just a giant list of stuff the Democrats have wanted forever and payoffs to the various douche bags who colluded to get Obama elected. So it is a tiny bit worse than the idiotic Republican plan that consisted of giving money to stupid companies so that the managers could still get their billions in bonuses.  Our government is insane.

We’re heading down a very bad road here and I’m not sure where it is going to end up.
