All Bart Stupak needed to do was walk down the steps of an airplane up to the podium and announce that he held in his hand a document signed by Herr Hitler that guaranteed that their would be peace in our time. Because the piece of paper that he has from President Obama has about as much worth and credibility as the one that Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain received from the German Chancellor before the start of World War II.

The truth of the matter is:

1. The President can rescind his executive order at any time.

2. A future president can rescind his executive order.

3. The constitution prohibits the President from enacting an executive order that dictates how Congress does or does not spend money.

Two years after Chamberlain returned with his piece of paper German bombs were falling on London. In four years this healthcare bomb will fall on the U.S. economy. Hopefully we will be able to survive this blitz and be able to rebuild from the ashes.

The Mandarin

The Mandarin, whose real name is 吏恆, joined the order in 1309, and introduced the Gormogons into England during the 18th Century.

The Mandarin enjoys spending time with his pet manticore, Βάρἰκος, or Barry (who can be found in the Bestiary). When not in the Castle…well, frankly, nobody is quite sure where he goes.

The Mandarin popularized the fine art of “gut booting,” by which he delivers a powerful kick to the stomach of anyone that annoys him. Although nearly universal today, the act of gut booting or threatening someone or something with a gut boot is solely due to him.
