Executive DIS-Order: This time OBAMA HAS GONE TOO FAR!

quote [ President Obama, a.k.a. the boss-in-chief, decided to give federal employees a holiday present a little early. He issued an executive order Friday giving them the day after Christmas off. ]

I think this is actually a nice thing that he's done. No one wants to work while they've still got the meat sweats from the Christmas goose or the Holiday Ham or the Kwanzaa Krab or the Hanukkah Hebrew National Hot Dogs or whatever the hell people eat these days.

No doubt there's some cost-benefit issue here. A lot, if not most federal employees would end up taking paid leave that day anyway- also, being a Friday, a significant number (including my wife) already have the day off as part of their 'compressed' schedule. It probably ends up saving money to just keep the whole works closed.
Nevertheless, I expect the Republicans to declare this some kind of unauthorized amnesty and threaten to sue and impeach.
