I'd like to photoshop (if I knew how and had the software) a picture of Ernst Stavro Blofeld from 1967’s You Only Live Twice with President Obama’s head and holding the white cat;

I'd like to print a bunch of these up then post them on light posts around town as a symbol of hidden resistance (and to make fun of De Fuhrer).

When are people going to realize that the minimum wage has nothing to do with raising the salaries of minimum wage type workers? It is a gift to the unions, because federal contracts are tied to the minimum wage. Minimum wage laws affect very few low-skilled workers and the ones it does affect, it hurts. It eliminates their jobs. It does not give them more money. It’s such a crock and a lie!

What GOP obstruction? He's gotten fricking everything he wants from the gutless House, and Amnesty will be handed to him on a silver platter. Goes to show you that leftists are NEVER satisfied until the commoners are all in gulags breaking rocks.

IN THE GRIM DARKNESS OF THE FAR FUTURE THERE IS ONLY GOVERNMENT.

The prime time speech from the podium of the House immediately drew Republican condemnation as an effort to create an imperial presidency, but was staunchly defended by Democrats as a legitimate and necessary use of executive authority in the face of GOP obstruction.

Why is it that when the president refuses to yield on his fixation on basic transformation of Constitutional principles, it is brushed off as (imaginary or whimsical) "executive powers," and praised by what is probably the most ignorant American electorate in history, but when Conservatives refuse to yield on basic Constitutional principles, it is labeled "obstructionism?"

None of the "progressive" Constitutional criminals, at any level of government, or in the MSM have had the slightest inclination to participate in that discussion.

It certainly is not too late.

Impeachment, or prosecution via violation of RICO laws.

I have yet to see anyone assert that citizens elected to public office at any level are immune to prosecution for violations of laws that apply to the rest of us.

OK, what the heck is a “starter” savings account?

I suspect another form of negative "income tax refund" to people who don't pay any income tax.
Just another form of feeding the parasite class to continue buying votes from the most ignorant, permanently indolent electorate generation in American history.

Good point.

MyRA is their attempt to steal our I-RA's.

Note the Leftist wordplay? IRA -- MyRA?

You didn't save that. Somebody else saved that for you.

Now we're going to take Your-RA and make it Their-RA.

Minimum wage will not support a family with children in today’s world. Two parents would have to work full time to barely meet expenses.

Call me old-school but I think those who cannot afford to adequately provide for their offspring have no right to have children. It strikes me as abusive from the start. There ought to be a law.

I'm not sure, but I do know from your snide tone you aren't eligible for one. And neither am I. Nor is anybody else on FR. I also know you and I are going to pay for it.

To #13> Forget the “We the People” thingy. To Obama, it’s “I am the People” (and don’t you forget it).

Remember, the Comrade in Chief often looks like Mussolini, sounds like Hitler and Stalin, and smiles like he has a banada up his ass.

His favorite song: “Comes the Commissar”.
Favorite movie: “Moscow on the Potomac”
Favorite writer: Saul Alinsky
Favorite book: “Rules for Radicals”
Favorite Reds: Frank Marshall Davis, Quentin Young and perhaps David S. Canter
Favorite Martians: Valerie Jarrett and Anita Dunn (Mars is the “red” planet, right? So if they are from Mars, they are “Reds”. Convoluted but what do you expect for free?)
Favorite Ballerina: Rahm Emanuel
Favorite impersonator of Dr. Mengele - Dr. Zek Emanuel
Favorite zombies: Janet Napolitano, Helen Sebelius, and Nancy Pelosi
Favorite Psychopath: Bill Ayers
Favorite Troll: Barbara Boxer
Favorite mouth-puppet: Jay Carney
Favorite liar with a smile: Susan Rice
Favorite sport: The Hunger Game
Favorite finger: Middle

Additions welcomed folks. FR is still “Free” for a while before the knock on the door.
