And the Federal Working Class says … Fed Smith Poll: Less Than 3% of Federal Workers Want To Join Obamacare
No one wants Obamacare … even the people who voted for Obama.
According to a recent Fed Smith poll, less than 3% of federal workers want to give up their current health care plans and want to join Obamacare. However, what politicians have inflicted upon the private sector should also be forced on to the federal employees as well. Keep in mind, an overwhelming majority of federal workers vote Democrat. As Weasel Zippers states, considering government workers overwhelmingly vote Democrat, you have to wonder how many of these people voted for Obama? If they did, would they not have thought that Obamacare would be implemented as opposed to if Obama lost the 2014 election, a stake would have been driven through Obamacare putting us all out of our collective misery.
What exactly did these people think they were voting for in the 2012 presidential election?
Wait, is this guy going to be banned for life from protests for wearing an Obama mask?

Less than 3 percent of U.S. federal workers want to give up their current health plans and join Obamacare, according to a new poll.
92.3 percent of federal workers think that they should continue with their current health insurance program, the Federal Employees Health Benefits Program (FEHBP), while just 2.8 percent think they should be required to join Obamacare exchanges and 4.9 percent are not sure, according to an August survey conducted by FedSmith.com, a website for federal employees.
Full Fed Smith survey can be read HERE.
But of course some how our country has become so screwed up that politicians thing we work for them and that they are a special ruling class. If they were so scared about Obamacare, then why did they vote for Obama in 2012 for reelection?
Though congressmen and congressional staffers have to enroll in Obamacare exchanges, most federal employees insured under FEHBP will not be forced to switch to Obamacare exchanges when the law is fully implemented in 2014. But a recent proposed bill by Michigan Republican Rep. Dave Camp to force federal workers out of FEHBP and into Obamacare generated a lot of concern among federal workers.
As The Daily Caller reported, employees of the scandal-plagued Internal Revenue Service (IRS) are particularly frightened.

No Shoes, No Shirts … No Bob Filner: San Diego Hooters Restaurants Refuse to Serve Democrat, Sexually Harassing Mayor
HA, even Hooter’s has its standards … Hooters in San Diego, CA area won’t serve womanizer Democrat SD Mayor Bob Filner.
You know its bad for you as a politician when Hooters restaurants won’t serve you because they are taking a “stand for the fair treatment of women”. Hooters restaurants in the San Diego area have decided not to serve serial womanizer, gropers, and sexual harasser, Democrat Mayor Bob Filner. Oh, the irony. The restaurant franchise that is known for this scantily clad, busty, and lets face it folks, extremely hot girls who are more than flirtatious appear to have their standards. Oh yea, and the hot wings are good too! But the difference being, waitresses at Hooters agree to wear the outfit, the woman who were at the end of Filner’s unwanted sexual harassment never signed up for this creeps exploitation.
Hmm, does anyone remember if the banned President Bill Clinton as well?
According to the manager of that restaurant, all of the Hooters locations in the city (Rancho Bernardo is in the zone) have taken up this policy. “The signs went up at our four locations in San Diego this morning,” said Melissa Fry, director of marketing for HootWinc, the west coast Hooters franchise. “It’s not a political move for us in any way, shape, or form. We’re strictly taking a stand for the fair treatment of women.
Here is a much better pic of the sign flanked by two of Hooters finest servers

Meanwhile, Hot Air reports that the perv Mayor Filner refuses to do the right thing and step down. Instead, this brain dead, consumed with power, out of touch Democrat politician says, he is moving forward.
We must, he says, continue to “move forward.”
Here’s the real significance of the Filner saga: It’s honestly difficult to decide which is more pathological, his approach to women or his approach to power. It’d be one thing if he was claiming innocence and was determined not to be muscled out of office on a trumped-up charge, but he’s not claiming that.
So let’s get this correct … a frigging rodeo clown gets fired from his job and banned for life from the Missouri State Fair and this sleaze bag, serious sexual harasser Filner keeps his job.? What has happened to the country I grew up in?

A UPS cargo plane, A-300 Airbus, tail number N155UP, crashed around 5:00 am just outside the fence of the Birmingham-Shuttlesworth International Airport in Alabama. The flight originated from Louisville, Ky. At this point there has been no word as to the condition of the two crew members aboard, they are considered missing; however, this does not look good.
A UPS cargo plane with at least two people aboard crashed early Wednesday just outside the fence of the Birmingham, Ala., airport, and FAA official confirmed.
A UPS spokesman confirmed to MyFoxAL.com that the plane was a UPS A-300 Airbus, tail number N155UP, with two crew members aboard. The flight originated in Louisville, Ky., and crashed upon its approach in Birmingham. UPS said the crew has not been located.
“Our thoughts and prayers are with the crew,” the spokesman said.
Federal Aviation Administration spokeswoman Kathleen Bergen told The Associated Press that the plane crashed before dawn Wednesday.
UPDATE I: Two crew members dead.
Sadly, the two crew members aboard the cargo plane that crashed this morning at dawn are considered dead. The Mayor’s office have confirmed that the pilot and co-pilot have been found at the crash scene dead.
The Birmingham Mayor’s Office has confirmed that the pilot and copilot of the plane have died in the crash. We’ll continue to update this story as information is confirmed.
FINALLY: First Dog Bo Takes a Well Deserved Vacation … Working Class Dog with Campaign and Caviar Tastes
YUP, PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA IS ALL ABOUT THE MIDDLE CLASS … THE PHONY WORKING CLASS PRESIDENT.
Rest well America, now that you know that Bo, the first Dog, has arrived safe aboard his own MV-22 Osprey flight to Martha’s Vineyard. That is correct, Bo is taking a vacation that most Americans can only dream of. He is ready to frolic on the sandy, non-diverse beaches of Martha’s Vineyard. Play golf and ride his bike, although I am not sure how he folds the putter with paws. This is the visual image that is presented from this elitist president and the first family. But that’s OK, because he is BO and you are not. Who finds it offensive that the First Family has no budget, no skin in the game, does not sacrifice, but yet these are the things that are asked of us by Barack Obama? Obviously presidents take vacations, but this one sticks it in America’s face as so many of “We the People” struggle to gain full time employment and a record number of Americans are on food stamps. But it is all fine for Barack Obama, the first family and BO to take such a lavish vacation because it is on the tax payers dime.
This president Bo has some gall to actually portray himself as for the working American people when all he does is live “life styles of the rich and famous”. The American Thinker has it 100% correct, “My problem is a ‘tone deaf’ administration who does not understand that moving BO around at taxpayers’ expense is a bit too much when we are blaming the “sequester” for government services. How can this president keep a straight face and talk about sequestration and government cuts in spending and then take a vacation like this to The Vineyard?
Some fantastic sarcasm from The People’s Blog. However, sadly, like all great sarcasm, so much of it is based upon the truth.
Americans can go to bed with a story to warm the cockles of their hearts tonight. First Dog Bo has been successfully transported to join the First Family on their well-deserved vacation on Martha’s Vineyard.
Bo was transported from Washington to the island on board a specially modified Marine Corps MV-22 Osprey. For security reasons similar to those of Vice President Joe Biden, President Obama and First Dog Bo cannot travel on the same aircraft, thus making a separate flight necessary.
While some might consider using a $69.3 million aircraft to transport a dog a bit extravagant, it must be pointed out that this was paid for with taxpayer money, not from the First Family’s accounts. Neither President nor Mrs. Obama are spendthrifts and are very careful with the family’s budget.
It is important that Bo accompany the First Family on this vacation, which the President surely deserves after all the hard work he has put in over the past few days. The president recently returned from a tortuous tour of speech-making, some of which were delivered in benighted flyover places like Tennessee.
How would would the MSM act if a Republican president was going on such lavish and posh vacations at such extravagant expenses as the people suffered? I think you all know the answer.
