Arizona continues to defy US policy, and is joined by Hawaii in once again refusing to conform to Daylight Savings Time. From an interview with an anonymous but obviously credible White House source, the Obama administration is concerned about yet another act of defiance from the state, following its controversial and obviously racist immigration laws. President Obama was visibly angered by Hawaii’s decision, since it has been undeniably proven to be his home state and he takes it as a personal affront.

Eric Holder is expected to file a suit over the issue, believing that it violates the Commerce Clause of the Constitution by causing businesses in other states to maintain two different time standards, causing an expense upwards of $1.75 a year per business. President Obama was overheard as saying “If we don’t get these costs under control it could bankrupt the country. Its not a good time in the polls to introduce new regulatory laws, but this unconscionable continuation of an act of rebellion is a greater threat to the country than Al Qaeda.”

Meanwhile he has authorized a commission, headed by the First Lady, to study any causal links between evening sunlight and childhood obesity. A law expanding the definition of child abuse to the feeding of children during twilight hours will be the outcome of the study. Results of the commissions study will be published in AOL’s soon to be launched online peer reviewed scientific journal, HuffPo_Theories.com. Few details are available on the new site, other than the name and location of the Senior Editor, Ken from Obama’s home town of Chicago. “I am confident that the causal link will be found, and any evidence to the contrary will most certainly not find its way to our pages, since it is critical that we advance this important cause without interference”, Ken has said. It is rumored that the site’s cyber-security measures exceed those of even the Pentagon in hope of avoiding any theft of information such as those that have unfarily and irresponsibly dented the credibility of the East Anglia CRU.

someone AGREES with you, and they are the moron... yeah... I can see your point there. I am a moron for even attempting such a stupid move.

Now, cite the source for your little fantasy world post... or shut up, jackieboy.

Months after Indiana passed the law that got it in step with the rest of the country, the federal government announced a major change in Daylight Saving Time. In Aug. 2005, Congress passed an energy bill that included extending Daylight Saving Time by about a month. As of 2007, DST starts the second Sunday of March and ends on the first Sunday of November.
Arizona (with the exception of the Navajo Nation) and Hawaii and the territories of Puerto Rico, Virgin Islands, Guam, and American Samoa are the only places in the U.S. that do not observe DST but instead stay on "standard time" all year long.

Oh taz, what are we going to do with you ?

Check your sarcasm detector, it should be warm (perhaps 2400K by now).

Got to realize that this type of humor just wouldn't work in the humor section.

I suspect the work of The Onion here, if not Wilbe is more creative than I had credited him.

T^T

Wilb,

You should read up on the constitution and states rights, you don't seem to know very much about anything, including and especially that.

Sarcasm is one thing Termy, believing it is another,
and there are those here who will repeat it verbatim simply because is involving anti holder and obama sentiments

Well isn't that special?
The Federal Government is charged with securing our borders which hasn't been done in decades and now they're throwing a hissy fit?

Where's slavemike, I want him to tell us why he thinks Oblunder is going to be re-elected again.

Isn't that sorta what the coast guard does and isn't that about when you were in, all the way to retiring from it?  I get the humor.

No, the source was me. Sorry to disappoint you Term :) The Senior Editor Ken from Chicago should have been a clue :)

There is no federal mandate to follow Daylight savings time, for the record, until April 2006, Indiana did not follow daylight savings time and had not since it was started.

Wilb,

There is a saying, and I think it proves out here, a skunk smells his own hole first.
