>>>Does Obama’s appointment of his sister or half-sister or whatever she is, violate the federal anti-nepotism statute?<<<
Yes. It’s embarrassing that an Obama official doesn’t know this.
Took the words right out of my mouth. Only add “my arse”.
That is a good catch. I wonder if Glenn Beck, Rush Limbaugh, and Bill O’Reilly are aware?

What is Social Entrepreneurship?
“Social entrepreneurship is the work of social entrepreneurs. We believe that social entrepreneurs are those exceptional individuals who dream up and take responsibility for an innovative and untested idea for positive social change, and usher that idea from dream to reality. What enables social entrepreneurs to make lasting impact on the most difficult problems is a special combination of groundbreaking creativity and steadfast execution. Echoing Greens portfolio of social entrepreneurs attacks the root causes of critical social problems with unparalleled rigor.”

Here’s a comment at the Politico:

Mr. Glass is apparently unaware of the federal anti-nepotism statute, 5 USC 3110, which would make it impossible for a future President Hillary Clinton to appoint her husband to any official paid position in the United States government.
The act was passed in direct response to President Kennedy’s appointment of his brother as Attorney General.
The Clintons were surprised to learn of this statute shortly after the 1992 election ,when the then President-elect considered appointing his wife as Chief of Staff.”
Interesting that the Clinton’s are well aware of the statute....but not Obama?
Nepotism and a pay off to Big Journalism. Yeah, that’s the ticket, that’s what this job is for!
Rules? He don't need no stinking rules! He's THE ONE!
Worship, follow or get out of the way!
Interesting...thanks.
Well done, sir.
I’ve sent a message to my Senators asking if this is a violation of that statute.
Amerizuela.
Bring Back Billy Carter!!!!!
