OBAMA’S PLAN TO PAY PEOPLE ENOUGH TO EAT STIRS CONTROVERSY

[Zorro]

Washington (The Borowitz Report) — President Obama has sparked outrage in Congress and renewed calls for his impeachment by signing a daring Presidential memorandum that would pay workers enough to eat.

The memorandum, which is based on the President’s view that people should be paid for the hours they actually work, is shaping up as one of the most controversial and incendiary actions of his Presidency.

House Republican leaders held a press conference this morning to warn Obama that, by advancing his agenda of paying people for the work they do, he is “playing with political fire.”

“A Presidential memorandum is a powerful tool and should be used sparingly,” said House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio). “It is not a vehicle for this President to enact his pet theories about people earning enough to survive.”

1. Boner what a POS you have become.

There you go Dems. If you can't make this work to your advantage then you deserve to loose. Talk about a gift that keeps on giving.

Talk about class warfare and bigot speak.

2. This is satire

Andy Borowitz is awesome. The best satire is when you really have to think twice. Can't decide if Boehner actually said that (pretty sure he didn't?) or not.
