HOWâS THAT HOPEY-CHANGEY STUFF WORKINâ OUT FOR YA? (CONTâD) – Not often Mr. Reynolds writes something this verbose, but when he does, it’s almost guaranteed to be quotable. And if Iâm peeing all over the wave of hope-and-change hype that got him into office despite his obvious unsuitability, itâs to help ensure that nothing this disastrous happens again in my lifetime. I realize that itâs painful for those who fell Read More ...
I’ve been crazy busy with work for the past few weeks, and a lot has happened. Obviously, I haven’t been reading very much, but here’s a small sample. An Outsiderâs Guide to a Triathlon – Love Todd’s approach. Justice is Not an Excuse for Jubilation – Pretty much how I feel about it all. Gas Pump Activism – This. Is. Awsum. Surprise! Woman finds 7-foot gator in bathroom – Had Read More ...
It’s a simple four step process: Step 1: Do some stuff that makes your opponents really mad. Step 2: Put your junk in that box. Step 3: Do things that make many of the people who defended you in Step 1 really mad. Step 4: Figure out a way to piss off the people who will blindly support you no matter what. That last step is pretty tough to accomplish, Read More ...
I guess I’m supposed to feel outraged. Oddly, “relief” is the word I would choose to describe it. Finally, someone with experience and ability seems to be in control. Added bonus–Bill Clinton actually wants to be President. Notice how he immediately leans on the podium and starts fielding questions. Obama no longer wants this job. Maybe he never wanted it in the first place. It seems like he’s doing everything Read More ...
I’m really surprised some wingnut out there hasn’t hypothesized the whole WikiLeaks fiasco was orchestrated by the current administration in an effort to weaken both the United States and Hillary Clinton at the same time. Maybe some conspirotist out there has come up with that, but I haven’t heard it so far. Of course, that’s ridiculous. It would take a very high level of competency to pull something like that Read More ...
Ironman – The Inner Revolt and Busting Out – I think there’s even more to this. Part of it is convincing yourself that you are as tough as you’ve convinced everyone else you are. An Even Tougher Deficit Plan – Sounds good to me, except for the VAT Dr. Drew on Obamacare: âYou will see a massive flight of physicians from the fieldâ – But he only plays a doctor Read More ...
I’m not exactly sure what people expected the POTUS to do to stop this leaking well. For all I know, he’s not even SCUBA certified–he’s yet to produce that certificate to the public–much less an expert on deep sea drilling. And as far as I know, there’s no government agency with deep sea drilling expertise. But wait for it…I’m sure there will be innumerable people proposing one. And let’s be Read More ...
Inspired by this post via Instapundit, I thought I’d build a little Google Spreadsheets chart based on nothing but some semi-random words. People love charts, right? Below are the number of Google results I got today from doing a search on “Obama is a _______”. I did this for my own amusement, and I wouldn’t put too much stock in these results. Everyone knows that popular opinion and popular vote Read More ...
Prediction — a pretty short speech that’s very abstract on the details (hardly an outline) that is moving and uplifting…until you realize there aren’t any details. I’m guessing this is pretty much a political effort to attempt to keep folks in these parts positive on his plan until after the November elections. After that, NASA gets poleaxed. You have to know it’s the secret dream every freshman studying aerospace engineering Read More ...
The Write Stuff: NASA Administrator Charlie Bolden said Tuesday that President Barack Obama has asked him to âfind ways to reach out to dominantly Muslim countriesâ as the White House pushes the space agency to become a tool of international diplomacy. Hang on a sec…have to look over my shoulder to see if I can figure out where the guys from Candid Camera or Punk’d have hidden their equipment. I know I Read More ...
This made me cry. From laughter. But there is much still to do. Even as we speak, a child is cryingâa little, sad, pitiful child with big eyes, crying enormous tears that will cost hundreds of billions of dollars to dry. Only billions? That sounds like a helluva bargain! Delivery is all about timing. This State of the Union has really bad timing. I bet he wishes he could put it Read More ...
“It was averted by brave individuals not because the system worked and that is not acceptable.” Really?!?!?! That’s an interesting statement. I’m must be really weird. I look at things a little differently. See, Â I think the fact that the system failed and brave individuals did not is AWESOME!!!! In fact, I put way more faith and trust in a bunch of even semi-brave individuals than I do in any Read More ...
Obama Ecstasy pills hit the streets – I knew they were on something. A gay secession manifesto – Careful what you ask for. Your opponents just may support you in this whole heartedly. Is Facebook Losing its Coveted Demographic? – Duh. Who wants to use the same service as their parents? That doesn't take a genius to figure out. A slightly unfortunate Twitter billboard – Sad someone got suspended from Read More ...
