Cher goes to Jupiter

“Elections have consequences, and at the end of the day, I won.” – President Obama to House Republican Whip Eric Cantor, January 23, 2009

Yes, Mr Obama, they certainly do. You reminded America of that numerous times.

And with that, here is a partial list I have of Leftists who are not only leaving the United States but the planet as well. Can we urge them to take action on this a bit faster?

  • Cher: she’s going to Jupiter;
  • Al Sharpton: he just wants to leave;
  • Whoopi Goldberg: “Maybe it’s time for me to move, you know. I can afford to go.”
  • Bryan Cranston: “I would definitely move.”
  • Spike Lee: he’s gone;
  • Samuel L. Jackson: “If that motherfucker becomes president, I’m moving my black ass to South Africa.”
  • Amy Schumer: “My act will change because I will need to learn to speak Spanish. Because I will move to Spain or somewhere. It’s beyond my comprehension if Trump won.”
  • Barbra Streisand: she wants to go to Australia or Canada if Trump wins. Hold that thought.

Pack your bags and go, Leftists. Time’s a-wasting. Chop-chop! Stat!

Want to know what is glorious beyond comprehension? The Canadian immigration website crashed late last night. Why? From SkyNews.com:

Canada immigration website crashes as Trump clinches victory

Canada’s immigration website has crashed as Americans watched Donald Trump take the lead and then win the US election.

Searches for “move to Canada” and “immigrate to Canada” spiked on Tuesday night as election returns started favouring the Republican nominee.

The website for Citizenship and Immigration Canada was down at the same time, and has suffered several outages since. 

New Zealand has also reported an increased traffic to its website for residency visas from US nationals on the eve of the vote.

Perfect. And don’t forget to take the people listed above with you, all you smarmy little elitists, because here’s what happened. The unwashed, the commoners, the proles, groundling, serfs, got tired of being looked down upon by the political “superiors” who know better than they do how to spend their money, run their lives and what to say and think.

Elections do have consequences and I shall be documenting them further in posts to come.

Congress’s Exemption from Obamacare

Criminals & PoliticiansFrom NationalReview.com:

Make Congress get insurance the same way the little people do? Hill denizens howl in fury.  by John Fund

Prostitution. Bribery. Blackmail. Thuggery. Hypocrisy.

Those were just some of the incendiary words thrown around the U.S. Senate last week, and that doesn’t count what people said in private.

Senator David Vitter, a Louisiana Republican, has demanded a floor vote on his bill to end an exemption that members of Congress and their staffs are slated to get that will make them the only participants in the new Obamacare exchanges to receive generous subsidies from their employer to pay for their health insurance. Angry Senate Democrats have drafted legislation that dredges up a 2007 prostitution scandal involving Vitter. The confrontation is a perfect illustration of just how wide the gulf in attitudes is between the Beltway and the rest of the country — and how viciously Capitol Hill denizens will fight for their privileges.

 In 2009, Senator Chuck Grassley (R., Iowa) decided that the principle deserved to be embedded in Obamacare, and he was able to insert a provision requiring all members of Congress and their staffs to get insurance through the Obamacare health exchanges. “The more that Congress experiences the laws it passes, the better,” said Grassley. Although his amendment was watered down before final passage to exclude committee staff, it still applies to members of Congress and their personal staffs. Most employment lawyers interpreted that to mean that the taxpayer-funded federal health-insurance subsidies dispensed to those on Congress’s payroll — which now range from $5,000 to $11,000 a year — would have to end.

 What Vitter’s opponents fear most is that this fight will penetrate the public’s consciousness. A new poll taken for Independent Women’s Voice, a conservative group, found that 92 percent of voters think Congress shouldn’t be exempted from the insurance provisions of Obamacare. Most voters blame both parties equally for the exemption, which means Republicans will also be hurt politically if it stands. “This is an issue with almost unprecedented intensity,” IWV president Heather Higgins told me. “Republicans have the choice of leading the Vitter parade for repeal or getting run over by it. To duck it will be viewed by their constituents as political malpractice.”

Please note the phrase “Democrats and Republicans alike,” above.  Both sides of the aisle believe it’s fundamentally “unfair” for them to have to abide by the fruits of their own bills.  Proving once again that, in essence, there isn’t a dime’s worth of difference between the two sides, with a smattering of exceptions.

You have to realize: those in DC are simply better than us.  Us: the American Taxpayers.  The proles, the serfs, the groundlings.
