A Reason to Celebrate on #GOPShutdown Day

Here's the page you'll be greeted with if you visit HealthCare.gov this morning:

Despite the efforts of the Tea Party and their stooge John Boehner to extort concessions they couldn't win through legislation, the courts, or the ballot box, the Affordable Care Act will start helping to insure unisured Americans today. They have shut down large portions of the Federal Government causing inconvenience to millions and pain to hundreds of thousands of workers, but HealthCare.gov is up and running.

  

Happy Birthday Obamacare!

Hey John, Where's Your Obligatory Flag Jewelry?

Did you get dressed in the dark?  Or in the bathroom of the bar around the corner?

If either President Obama or Vice President Biden had arrived at tonight's State of the Union speech without the mandatory Stars'n'Stripes jewelry on the lapels of their dark suits, the Right would be screaming with outrage and asking for longer form birth certificates to prove our President wasn't actually born in Kenya.
But a right-winger like Speaker John Boehner can appear with no patriotic hardware on his lapel because no one on the Left gives a fuck.  But I figured I'd post this picture from a few minutes ago and mention it anyway, just because of the hypocrisy of the thing.

Sorry John, but I woke up anagramming ...

... and the anagrams of the morning are for SPEAKER BOEHNER -- HE, BARKEEPER SON (or HE'S NO BARKEEPER).

Share these with him if you know @SpeakerBoehner.  I'm sure they will make him cry like a baby.

The Middle Class Tax Increase Calculator

Check out this White House calculator to see what the inaction of John "Tangerine Tango" Boehner's GOP Congress will cost you.   And please spread the word.  I don't think that many Republicans will be pleased with their representatives either if they see what this means for them in dollars and cents next year:

2012 is Officially the Year of Trump and Boehner

Pantone has just officially announced  that their 2012 color of the year has been inspired by the skin color of Fred Trump's little boy Donald and the weepy Speaker of the House.  They've given this shade inspired by these impressive Republican leaders a clever alliterative name that pays tribute to their  impressive tans, "Tangerine Tango." 

I hope that we'll be seeing a lot of  tear-stained ties and dresses dyed in Pantone 17-1463 at GOP concession speeches next fall.
