Mardi Gras Floats Mock Failure Of Obamacare

Image credit: fireandreamitchell.com Other placards on the float include, "DEATH PANEL," and "BEND OVER." A second entry appears as a store front-like edifice with sayings painted in the windows and on the chimneys. One says "keep your doctor," another says "keep your plan." A painting of a woman on a computer sits steaming while her computer screen shows, "try back later." Another window says, "loading, loading, loading," while on yet another is written, "user error." This one also has the words "death panels."

Opposite the painting of the woman on a computer is an Obama figure holding a giant stickpin and wearing a glitzy top hat and tails, the hat saying "Dr. Prez." Dr. Prez has a word bubble next to his head saying, "This is gonna hurt" and he holds a voodoo doll that says "patients" on it awaiting Dr. Prez' giant stickpin.

So here is some rueful, dark Cajun humor for Mardi Gras 2014.
