Sebelius’ Violation of Hatch Act Won’t Be Punished White House Says
Semi-News/Semi-Satire ^ | 15 Sep 2012 | John Semmens

Posted on 09/17/2012 11:43:32 AM PDT by John Semmens

The Hatch Act’s prohibition against campaigning on the taxpayers’ dime didn’t stop Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius from making a pitch for President Obama’s reelection at a Human Rights Campaign Event in Charlotte, N.C.

“Strictly speaking, what she did was against the law,” White House spokesman Eric Schultz acknowledged. “But we also need to take into consideration her intent and prior record. Secretary Sebelius is a highly respected member of this Administration with no previous criminal record. Further, it is clear that her intent was admirable. An effort to help reelect the President serves a higher purpose. The President feels it would be inappropriate to penalize such praiseworthy behavior.”

The really scary thing about this satire is that the headlines are completely believable.

Our administration is filled with duds, bimbos, and of course, the t*rd in chief, the blunderdork, the most insipidly stupid human being in the entire multivers.

Take a bow there, Obamadork.

This isn’t really satire. The White House has made it clear that Sebellius won’t be reprimanded let alone prosecuted for her criminal act. Join the club, b!tch. Where’s Eric Holder?? Busy at the document SHREDDERS?

This satire isn’t , it is the truth... and it explains why we needed to have Todd Akins back.

********************************************
He’ll have almost 2 1/2 months to do that work... right now he’s busy co-ordinating with the DNC how to best support their post election vote manipulation and recount effort.
