Only in America (or possibly Canada)

I was watching tv the other day when a commercial appeared between quantum bits of nothingness. The set up was a bunch of people eating too much over the holidays and realizing that they were gaining weight. I figured it was one of the many get fit marketing opportunities that appear at beginning of the year. But no. That's not what it was about at all. It was for a Ronco type of item that allows you to add an extra trouser button to allow for your extra poundage. I laughed. You would too. It's typical of this time. Let's not fix the problem, let's just allow for it even though the damage is more than the inconvenience.

Maybe that's what the Obamarama adiministration needs. An extra button.
