Obamaâs Change.gov website has created yet another feature for soliciting ideas from the public. This time itâs called the Citizenâs Briefing Book and you can vote on ideas or submit your own. The winning ideas will be printed out and handed to Barack Obama, so he can wipe his ass with them.
Unsurprisingly, the most popular idea is legalizing marijuana, yet again. This has really escalated to the point of absurdity and if the new administration hasnât figured it out yet, this will continue until they either give us an intelligent response, or stop asking us to post ideas on their website. Â
If, like me, youâre becoming cynical about this whole process, shake it off. Go to the website and vote. There is no way of measuring the impact of our repeated domination of Change.gov, but it is intuitively greater than zero. They wouldnât keep doing this if it didnât mean something to them.
