Celebs Mangle Facts, Call for Wendy's Boycott Over ObamaCare Cutbacks
Breitbart ^

Posted on 01/08/2013 10:17:35 PM PST by chessplayer

Liberal celebrities are piling on the Wendy's fast food chain, facts and economic realities be darned.

Dan Savage, Nathan Fillion and Sarah Silverman are tweeting for others to join their Wendy's boycott after news leaked that the hamburger chain will be slashing some workers' hours due to restrictions placed upon them by ObamaCare.

Too bad the trio didn't read the fine print - or look beyond standard far-left outlets like ThinkProgress. The worker cuts in question are only applicable to a handful of Wendy's outlets, not the whole chain itself.

I’ve recently been following Adam Baldwin on Twitter. Adam played Jayne Cobb in Firefly. I swear the man is or was a Freeper. Look him up, it will warm your heart and maybe restore a bit of faith.

Does anyone know the impact of Obamacare on seasonal contract labor? Is health insurance not required as long as weekly hours are kept below 29?

This is a 3-4 month a year operation when contract laborers will work up to 29 hours/week. The rest of the year, hours will be less per week and only a day or two per week.

As an aside, how to make a homemade Wendy’s Frosty.

Wendy’s Frosty

Freeze the ice cream maker bowl for 24 to 48 hours.
Put plastic wrap on the bowl to prevent ice crystals
from forming.

1 quart rich, thick chocolate milk
14 oz can sweetened condensed milk

In a medium bowl, whisk together chocolate milk and
sweetened condensed milk until combined. Pour into
canister of 1-1/2 quart ice cream maker and freeze
according to your ice cream maker’s directions.

Turn your ice cream maker on before pouring. This
helps to prevent the liquid from sticking to the
sides right away. Pull off the plastic wrap from your
ice cream maker bowl, and pour the mixture into the
bowl as it is turning. Blend for about 25 minutes for
a thick consistency. Serve in cups (with spoons).

With a blender

In a large mixing bowl, combine chocolate milk and
sweetened condensed milk. Mix the ingredients using a
large blender. Once thoroughly combined, put the mixture
into a freezer safe container and freeze for 2 or more
hours, making sure you stir thoroughly every half hour
until desired thickness is reached.

I have always suspected that the reason that people like this into show business in the first place is because they don’t have the brains or character to do anything else. JMHO
