NO More Tattoos, Lingerie or Strip Clubs for YOU!!!

Someone Has Finally Come to Their Senses Round Here

Louisiana welfare recipients will now be prohibited from spending the federal assistance at lingerie shops, tattoo parlors, nail salons and jewelry stores, under new limits enacted by state social services officials.  Also barred in the latest restrictions from taking welfare debit cards are video arcades, bail bond companies, cruise ships, psychics, adult-entertainment businesses, nightclubs, bars and any businesses where minors are not allowed.

Last year, the social services agency enacted new regulations that banned the spending of welfare money on cigarettes, alcohol and lottery tickets. Those regulations also included prohibitions on the use of a welfare electronic benefit card at liquor stores, gambling sites and Strip Clubs,  as required under a recently-passed federal law.  

The Department of Children and Family Services announced the emergency regulations late Thursday. They cover the Family Independence Temporary Assistance Program — commonly known as welfare benefits — and the Kinship Care Subsidy Program.

Ruth Johnson

The previous legal misuse of welfare funds were in part instituted and overseen by this woman, Ruth Johnson who resigned her post last June as Louisiana's social services secretary, a position that oversees one of the largest agencies in state government, with a $949 million budget and more than 4,000 employees (that is one employee for every 1200 people in the state).

Thankfully for us, Johnson is now deputy director for finance and administration at the South Carolina Department of Health and Human Services.

On the Dirty Media Complex

“I’ve been wanting to write about the unseen influences on the media by coordinated, paid factions, whether they’re from political, corporate or other special interests, the tactics they use to manipulate the images we see, not just in the news but on Facebook, Wikipedia, or fake Twitter accounts. It’s become a way of life and I don’t think the public is aware of how much nearly everything you see today may be influenced, in some fashion, by a paid interest that wants you to think something.”  - former CBS News Reporter Sharyl Attkisson

Undercover on the First Lady's China Trip

Middle Finger News Service

The AP claims that the Obama administration has reneged on their promise of transparency also claiming that Obama’s staff is turning to social media as a way to promote Obama’s agenda. At a convention in Denver this week, two of AP’s White House staffers made the claim that Obama’s team often prevents reporters from covering Obama events because they are “hypersensitive” about his image.

I guess that would explain as to why Obama’s team would prefer to post all their cutesy pictures on Twitter and Facebook rather than allow the media to actually cover what really goes on during those events. 

This has know extended to official travel at taxpayer expense. 
That don't stop us.....

"We heard FLOTUS would be visiting a panda preserve so we went undercover in our home-made bear suits. Not only did they wave us right in, they also escorted us to the same compound where Mrs Obama had stopped for lunch with her group. Unfortunately we were again only able to upload one photo before things went south."

It's Said He Had No Stops on His Organ....

Johann Sebastian Bach was born on this day, 21 March 1685 in Eisenach, Saxe-Eisenach, Germany. Bach was best known during his lifetime as an organist, organ consultant, and composer of organ works in both the traditional German free genres. Bach's abilities as an organist were highly respected throughout Europe during his lifetime, although he was not widely recognized as a great composer until a revival of interest and performances of his music in the first half of the 19th century. He is now generally regarded as one of the greatest composers of all time. 

Bach is also known for siring 20 children.
