By now, everyones become annoyingly familiar with the eagerness of Barack and Michelle Obama and their administrative minions across the country to tell Americans how to live their lives, according to Democrat dicta of what is healthy, desirable, proper and politically correct. Theyve only got 938 days left to cram more rules, regulations and requirements down the national throat. Dont forget, the Chicagoan has a phone and a pen to circumvent Congress and now House Speaker John Boehner says hell sue the administration over its self-granted powers. So, there seems to have been a flood of new attempts to control more of American life. Using the Patent Office, for example, the black presidents White House is trying to change the Redskins team name. Mrs. Obama, a known french-fry addict who serves nine pies at Thanksgiving. has never been accused of anorexia. But shes pushing restaurant chains across the country to modify the contents and portions of their menus most popular items to make them healthy and less tasty. Mrs. Obama has, unsolicited, instructed American parents what they should and should not be serving up for their familys consumption at the breakfast and dinner table. And using the financial clout of federal subsidies, shes also driving school cafeterias to alter menus to follow her approved healthy guidelines, even if tons of that stuff then gets tossed uneaten into landfills because tomorrows leaders disagree with the tastes of todays first lady. Using regulations and permits, Obama has stunted energy explorations on federal land and stalled the Keystone XL pipeline because to him oil is a four-letter word. Remember too ObamaCare with its 15-foot tall stack of new rules and regulations. The Environmental Protection Agency, which intends to strangle the coal industry with unattainable rules on CO2 emissions, among other things, has its eyes set on regulating pretty much any collection of water down to private puddles. But now it turns out Empress Gina McCarthy and her unfettered EPA regulation empire have encountered an environmental problem of their very own. And it stinks. Really. Someone or someones has taken to defecating in EPA office hallways. Yes, its gross. But also hilariously karmic for environmental enforcers. If this happened in a private business, government regulators would descend in funny rubber suits, ribbon off the contaminated ares and remove the unauthorized waste disposal for further analysis. Then, theyd stand in a row behind their boss giving a full sit-rep for the TV cameras that answered the agencys news-release summons.
