While the drooling media types who can't stop the tingling in their legs were ' awed ' by the quickness of his reflexes (as was POTUS himself) when he swatted that fly, it gave me the creeps. Nothing before has so graphically demonstrated BO's detached arrogance and narcissism. Watch the clip and decide for yourself.
I just saw a commercial, a straight-out commercial, for FINRA . Slick, obviously expensive, in terms both of production and air-time. WTF are they doing spending my money on commercials? Are we really at the point where government agencies can lobby us in this way, with our own effin' money? Where is FINRA's IG, for cryin' out loud? EDIT: DOH! How dumb am I? Pretty dumb. FINRA's private (sort of). NEVERMIND. But wait - they are advertising...
All I can say is he came up with this in a wet dream.
I laughed my ass off at this juicy little attempt by MSNBC to be 'fair & balanced.' This woman actually came at this from the perspective that Palin has a problem with Letterman , and she wanted to know why. From a guy, no less, who had interviewed Palin. Was this lady an extra in Clueless? Is that the resume jewel that the talent-spotters at MSNBC picked up on? I thought about posting this in the humor section, then decided it was more sad than funny. If you ha...
Lead story on HuffPo today. BIG BOLD RED CAPS - they're shocked, I tell you, shocked. Apparently, someone was taking notes when Robert Reich said stimulus money shouldn't go to help southern white construction workers.
BO, circa February 2009: "You can't get corporate jets, you can't go take a trip to Las Vegas or go down to the Super Bowl on the taxpayer's dime."
The article speaks, eloquently, for itself. Enjoy.
Saw this little clip again recently for some reason & noticed something I'd not picked up on before. It's the famous Henrietta Hughes plea to Obama for help during the campaign. You'll recognize it. But pay attention when BO walks over to Hughes to give her a hug at about 40 seconds into the clip & watch the lady to the left of BO as the crowd stands up to applaud. Nauseating, actually. I'm afraid there are far too many whose judgment is clouded by such infatuatio...
Steyn's take at the time appears to have been spot on.
You may recall the flap just last month when Napolitano said this: "In my speech, although I did not use the word “terrorism,” I referred to “man-caused” disasters. That is perhaps only a nuance, but it demonstrates that we want to move away from the politics of fear toward a policy of being prepared for all risks that can occur." Well. The same does not appear to apply when discussing our own citizens. This, from the just-released memo from DHS to police ...
Despite having abundant material from the comedy team of BO & Biden, Slate finds it necessary, even now, two months after the Texas village was reunited with its idiot, to continue their Bushism of the Day schtik. But I'm sure there's no bias involved.

It's been the dirty little secret of Congress forever (that nobody ever reads the shit they vote for) but now they can't begin to pretend. Not one Congressman or Senator will be able to say with a straight face that they understand what they will be voting for today. Everyone one of them should be impeached for failing to fulfill their fiduciary (& every other) duty to the people. I fear that nothing short of armed revolt is going to change these nutjobs.

From Ayers' comments at a book event today: "The big lie... that somehow I've killed people, somehow I've been a violent person, all of it false." Not so clever an attempt at disinformation there - include something it is known you didn't do (first degree murder) in a sentence referencing something about you known to be true, and call it 'all' false. It is almost comical to see this guy calmly, flatly denying what he not only used to cheerfully admit, but took great pride in. As...

For all those who repeatedly denigrate Fox News for being 'unfair' & 'unbalanced' - I just finished watching a 2 hour special examining the two candidates, warts & all, laying out events & facts of their careers with very little, equally distributed, cheerleading for either. I already knew almost everything about McCain, having lived in Arizona for 30 years, but I now have a much better understanding of Obama's history and the controversies surrounding him. Fox portrayed ...
Yet another "LAST STRAW". Just wanted to beat Gene to the punch. Couldn't resist.
