Razorbacks

Last Tuesday President Obama got off the helicopter in front of The White House - carrying a baby piglet under each arm. 

The squared-away Marine guard snapped to attention, saluted and said: "Nice pigs, sir."

The President replied:  "These are not pigs. These are authentic Arkansas Razorback Hogs. I got one for Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, and I got one for Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi."

The squared-away Marine again snapped to attention, salutes and said, "Excellent trade, sir."

Hypocrisy cracks the Democratic party as lines appear in opposition to House and Senate Republicans

I am frequently frustrated by the hypocrisy of politics.  The most recent development comes after the Obama administration and Senate Democrats shut down the government to uphold the penalty for Americans who did not sign up for Health Insurance on the exchange.  Now, several Democratic Senators have gotten together to delay the Individual Mandate in the same way that Ted Cruz and House Republicans requested during the budget and debt ceiling argument.

Meanwhile, Nancy Pelosi continues to hold the unrealistic expectation that the website can, in fact, somehow be repaired in time for people to enroll prior to penalties being assessed.  The company assigned to the task of building the site needs more time to make the repairs necessary.  Judging by their past performance, it is doubtful that just a "few weeks" would accomplish such a feat.
