North Dakota Names Landfill After Obama
The state of North Dakota has named a new publicly-owned landfill after
President Barack Obama.
In an overwhelming 35-10 vote, the state Senate advanced a bill naming a 650
acre site currently under construction after the nation's 44th president.
Governor Jack Dalrymple is expected to sign the measure into law Tuesday.
When completed, the Barack Obama Memorial Landfill will be the largest waste
disposal site in North Dakota, and the 17th largest in the United States. It
will be especially rich in toxic waste from the local petroleum and medical
industries.
"We wanted to do something to honor the president," says Republican State
Senator Doug Perlman, who was the lead sponsor of the bill. "And I think a
pile of garbage is a fitting tribute to Obama's presidency.
"We originally planned on naming it after a nearby mountain. But then
someone jokingly suggested we name it after Obama. I never thought and idea
like that would actually pass. But I was pleasantly surprised."
The president is hardly popular in North Dakota. The most recent poll in
December 2013 found that Obama has a 35% approval rating in the state,
although that figure may have fallen further in the year since. Yet even
considering the political climate, seasoned observers are surprised that
two Democratic lawmakers voted for the bill's passage.
"I supported Obama because I thought he would end the wars in the Middle
East;" says Allison Mitchell, a progressive Democrat from Grand Forks. "But
he decided to fight new wars abroad instead of fighting for single-payer
health care and jobs here at home.
"I guess people expected me to oppose this landfill thing because I'm a
Democrat. But honestly I don't really care anymore. Maybe this small act of
protest will wake him up."
Ordinary citizens in the state also seem to approve of the government's
choice.

STILL VERY CLEVER
The AMA weighs in on ObamaCare
AMA Insight, No matter which side you are on. The American Medical Association has weighed in on Obama's new health care package.
The Allergists were in favor of scratching it, but the Dermatologists advised not to make any rash moves.
The Gastroenterologists had sort of a gut feeling about it, but the Neurologists thought the Administration had a lot of nerve.
Meanwhile, Obstetricians felt certain everyone was laboring under a misconception, while the Ophthalmologists considered the idea shortsighted.
Pathologists yelled, "Over my dead body!" while the Pediatricians said, "Oh, grow up!"
The Psychiatrists thought the whole idea was madness, while the Radiologists could see right through it.
Surgeons decided to wash their hands of the whole thing and the Internists claimed it would indeed be a bitter pill to swallow.
The Plastic Surgeons opined that this proposal would "put a whole new face on the matter".
The Podiatrists thought it was a step forward, but the Urologists were pissed off at the whole idea.
Anesthesiologists thought the whole idea was a gas, and those lofty Cardiologists didn't have the heart to say no.
In the end, the Proctologists won out, leaving the entire decision up to the a**holes in Washington.
