Landfill named after President Obama! Justice at last!
« on: November 27, 2014, 09:01:29 PM »
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 an
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.
“I can’t think of a better name,” says Joe Blough, a plumber from
Minot. “It’s darkly colored and it's full of s**t. That pretty much
sums up Obama.”

It's the first thing associated with him that created jobs without the American tax payers paying millions per job!  The first thing they should burry there is a dead pig.  I think a sewage treatment plant would be more appropriate though!   :(
