Why The Congress Needs To Be Replaced


The article below is a perfect example of why we have an ineffective Government. It is no real importance which party has control of which house as neither are prime examples of what the government is supposed to be. This suit is more a media stunt and time waster as the issues have been resolved long before the recent SCOTUS ruling. In effect Mr. Boehner is suing on a dead issue. If one looks at what has happened : the Congress has stalled many initiatives from the White house and discussed them in the media rather than in the Congressional rooms where they should be addressed. This is yet another ploy to get misinformation, disinformation and half truths in the public eye for the purposes of elections and elections only. If you pay just a little attention to the news after this, you will see many pundits and Dupublicans hopping on “pop”. Meanwhile the Congress is still ineffective.

Speaker of the House John Boehner (R-Ohio) writes in a Sunday op-ed for CNN that he is compelled to sue President Obama to restore balance to the federal government.

Obama, Boehner says, has repeatedly “circumvented the American people and their elected representatives through executive action.” In doing so, the president has shown a “flippant dismissal of the Constitution we are both sworn to defend,” Boehner says, adding that Obama’s actions are “utterly beneath the dignity of the office.”

Here’s the crux of his argument for filing suit:

In the end, the Constitution makes it clear that the President’s job is to faithfully execute the laws. And, in my view, the President has not faithfully executed the laws when it comes to a range of issues, including his health care law, energy regulations, foreign policy and education. […] Congress has its job to do, and so does the President. When there are conflicts like this — between the legislative branch and the executive branch — it is my view that it is our responsibility to stand up for this institution in which we serve, and for the Constitution. [CNN]

Obama has rejected the lawsuit as a “stunt.” And skeptics of the House GOP’s litigious streak are quick to point out that Obama has signed fewer executive orders than any president in the past century.

Disease As An Part Of Shopping


A Local well known store has an obvious rodent infestation. This problem exploded when the company changed pest control companies going for a cheaper price. The new company (starts with “T”) has a poor reputation of having a contract but being unable to control the situation. Previous company (starts with ” O”), had the situation under control. There was no problem with the bird seed in the garden area and in the pet department being ravaged, pooped and peed in and on. There were no errant rodents found dead in the aisles. To save money the Corporate bean counters changed companies and thereby created a potential health hazard for the workers and the customers. Save a buck-kill some customer and workers.
