Ow. Ow. Ow. I am laughing so hard I can’t breathe. Can. Hardly. Type.
WaPo brings us the beyond-satire news that the White House wants to put SEIU president Andy Stern on the federal deficit panel. Now, it’s not just a dog-and-pony show. It’s a dog-pony-and-thug show. I love how WaPo uses the word “eclectic” to describe the choice. “Eclectic” is the new synonym for corruptocrat:
Eclectic trio of candidates considered for Obama deficit panel:
Republican David M. Cote, the chief executive of Honeywell International, has emerged as a top contender for a slot on President Obama’s commission to bring the nation’s soaring debt under control, a senior administration official said Saturday.
The White House is also considering appointing two Democrats: Andrew Stern, president of the Service Employees International Union, and Alice M. Rivlin, a budget expert and former vice chairman of the Federal Reserve who recently launched a separate, independent effort to draft a bipartisan plan to stabilize government borrowing…
…Stern and Rivlin are well-known in Washington. Stern is president of the 2.2 million-member SEIU and an ardent supporter of Obama’s health initiative..
Reminder: The U.S. Attorney’s Office in Washington, D.C. is probing the SEIU for possible violations of the Lobbying Disclosure Act for Stern’s frequent visits to the White House and with members of Congress in 2009.

“O Wants to Appoint Andy Stern”
Mr. Obama, his administration, his associates and all of his appointees are brilliant!!! Absolutely brilliant!!!
They are all well-suited for telling us ignorant dolts how to live, what to do, and how to bow.
/Sarc/
IMHO
ROFLMAO
You can’t make this stuff up!
Beck ought to be in rare form today.
What’s the big deal here?
He placed a Fister and Pedophile at the head of School Safety and no one cared.
Hope so!
So should Rush, Sean, Mark, and Fox news later.
Heck it might even keep Greta from talking about what’s his name who killed/sold the young lady in Aruba!
Obama’s fake concern for controlling deficeit spending now goes beyond “closing the barn door after the horses are gone”.
He now wants to appoint one of the horse thiefs to the panel to investigate who stole the horses.
Those stupid idiots who voted for Obama because of some wimpish, dreamy-eyed longing for Hopey-Changey are seeing their dreams come true.
Nothing will ever be the same when Obama finishes destroying the country.
This thread is useless without the obligatory picture of Michelle.....
I mean, ..."when Andy Stern, is placed on the Deficit Commission."
NO ONE who has any power to do squat is going to stop Obambi from putting a fox in the henhouse. They didn't stop Bush from doing it, they ain't stoppin' Obambi.
I’m suprised she didn’t point out Alice Rivlin was a muggeldeewump in the Clinton Administration.
I hear Charles Manson is angling for a top position in the Justice Dept, too.
Tom Daschle appointed Gorelick to the 9/11 panel...
Fill the blank in with anything you like - the statement works.
Those stupid idiots who voted for Obama because of some wimpish, dreamy-eyed longing for Hopey-Changey are seeing their dreams come true.
While they are in dream land, the majority, and sane citizens are experiencing their WORST nightmare.
Curiouser and curiouser!
The Purple People Beaters . . .
I’m sorry. It makes me sad that he is Jewish.
That was down right cruel......
