House Dems serve up panic, hysteria, silliness over...cafeteria forks

Choose or die.

Some Democrat congressional staffers are threatening to boycott the House cafeteria and Democrat congressmembers are in full mental meltdown after Republicans have instructed managers to resume the use of traditional disposable cups and plastic utensils over the fragile, flimsy, "green" spoons, knives and forks ordered under former Speaker Nancy Pelosi.

The changes come after most House staffers, Republicans and Democrats, demanded the change.  The "green" utensils routinely shattered in staffers' hands and even melted in soup, leading staffers to begin bringing utensils from home.

Switching back to affordable, reliable utensils will also save taxpayers half a million dollars, as "green" works and spoons are also considerably more expensive.

As they tend to do with most everything, environmentalists have come completely mentally unhinged and begun estimating the body count.

"Democrats see the cafeteria changes as symbolic of Republican hostility toward the environment," the San Francisco Chronicle reports of the decision to use utensils that can't even cut meatloaf.

"This seems like a small thing, but it sends a terrible message," wailed Rep. Chellie Pingree, D-Maine.

"I can hardly wait for the lead paint," Rep. Earl Blumenauer, D-Ore., plaintively whined through Twitter.

The move is actually good for the environment, as well.  Pelosi's attempt to collect and recycle all the utensils increased total energy use, and the constant breakage and melting led to staffers using even more disposable utensils.

I'm not sure which environmentalist belief is crazier. 

Thinking that using sturdier, more reliable spoons that don't shatter in your eye is "Republican hostility toward the environment" or believing that using the wrong spoon will literally destroy the planet.

Markey: Super-villain GOP has plan to destroy 'the whole wide world'

You know your party is in trouble when your plan to win back the majority is to insist comic book plots are real.

LaFollette: You voters are 'brainwashed' idiots. Oh, and don't forget to vote for me in November.

Wisconsin's liberal Secretary of State, Doug LaFollette, tells a rally of liberal activists, all of whom are holding the same mass-produced signs and chanting the same four words, that "approximately 50 percent of the voters in our state" are "brainwashed."

LaFollette is an elected official.  He got 52 percent of the vote.

Also, none of the activists, who defensively insisted it was their opponents who are "brainwashed," could exactly explain how employers destroy jobs or how jobs are created.
