Signup Link?

I didn't find a link to a website to signup for the Government Volunteer Worker Corps program.
Do you know what the link might be? Or where to signup? What flavor Kool-Aid do they serve? Do they have Jim Jones Grape Jelly flavored Kool-Aid?

My mistake! You'll find that information at http://www.serf.dom.

As for beverages, you will be mandated to provide your own or face a stiff fine unless you are over 65 or have selected the public option, in which case, the Jim Jones Flavor will be provided FREE!!!

Only 20? How does the woman manage to do it?

Imelda Marcos probably had that many servants just to take care of her shoes.

I think we need to give her a chance, after all, she got handed the worst servant problem since Jackie Kennedy was first lady.

That leaves a lot to the imagination! I can't imagine a rap song that is not blatantly offensive from start to finish, but I take your meaning.

Your right. Forty years of gutting the education system is really paying dividends. Heck, things are so good that congress doesn't even have to read the bills anymore.

Carper(Dim-Bidenland) was even willing to say that he wouldn't understand it anyway!

Now that's progress, the progressive way!

You need to get mind right. Our maximum leader is deserving all praise and we should be happy to bend the knee and serve him! HaHaHa!

I think you might be ready to join Skep and me in the "Suck the System Dry" campaign. Just apply for every government program. Use all you entitlements daily, better yet, demand new ones!

Call your elected representatives whenever you don't feel well and ask them for medical advice. Heck, even if you need to change a light bulb their wise council should be invaluable.

If we can't convince them to see their way clear to let us run our lives ourselves then let's treat them like the Nanny they want to be!

Aaaaahh... the endless possibilities...


First of all, there's no need for the Obama Channel. We already have the Obama Uber-Network -- the OUN -- which consists of the formerly-independant networks of ABC, CBS, NBC, and CNN.

That's one of the reasons why Fearless Leader (think Rocky & Bullwinkle) is on TV more than the ShamWow guy and Billy Mays COMBINED.

He's also been studying Billy Mays's amazing ability to still be plugging products even after he's dead. Being from Chicago, I'm sure he already knew the dead have the ability to vote in elections. But to be able to keep "working" after death is a great ability for a dead Democrat President to have! (Of course, it would be terrible for Ronald Reagan to have that ability)

Obama's cramming hard to acquire that enviable skill.

Now, as to the "unemployed"... that's a figment of Fox News's imagination. There ARE no "unemployed", as Obama has solved that problem. He's assured us it's so, so it is, and anyone who claims to be "unemployed" is simply "astroturfing". There are puh-lenty of jobs out there, all you gotta do is find them. If you're willing to work, why... he'll put you to work! Quit worrying about actually getting paid! That's a distraction! And anyway, in a couple of months that won't matter anyway, since the tax rate will be over 100%. So what are you whining about? Even if you actually MADE money, it's not like you'd be able to actually KEEP it!

Between the soaring tax rates, and mandatory union dues (thanks to forced unionization under card check), it is actually conceivable that taxes and fees will add up to more than wages.
From work for pay to pay to work. What's not to like?

Brian,

That was channels (plural). I understand that we will be adopting the western European model and just relabeling ABC et al as BHO-1, BHO-2, etc.

This is a new channel established so as not to interfere with the president's regular lineup.

Plenty of jobs? I knew my kid was pulling something when he told me he had trouble finding work! I feel better knowing that all our needs will soon be met by a robust tax plan and free stuff from Obama.

It sounds reasonable to assume. With the wage earners out of the picture the local, and state governments will be able to file just a single tax return. What could be simpler!(?)

The whole situation is going to be a spectacular train wreck! Do you think we'll be able to see it on pay-per-view?

I can't envision the "Golden State" not provided you with an adequate serving staff. What are all those illegals for? They can't all be gardeners.

I would have thought that those of you in the OC would be hard pressed to get by with only 20 servants.

Don't worry. Maria will remind Zero that he owes the family big time for his election and he will redistribute the wealth from all red states to keep you guys in arugula and sushi.

Some laws are inescapable and apply to the Kennedys as well.
Such as the Laws of Physics. One of which states very emphatically that a 1968 Oldsmobile will NOT float, even in salt water.
