As the true character and mission of Barack Hussein Obama  and his already-tainted administration continue to unfold, his numbers are already slipping, although not nearly fast enough.  Many people are still so enamored of who and what they think Obama is and what they want him to be that they are not yet capable of accepting the unforgiving reality.

With this president, it’s more important than is normally required to note what he does rather than simply hear what he says since those are often vastly different and at variance.  Obama said quite a bit in the campaign, some of … Read the rest

It must be almost 45 years since I last read Ayn Rand’s classic, libertarian, “objectivist” novel, Atlas Shrugged, the central theme of which is reflected in the title.

Atlas in Greek mythology was condemned by Zeus to bear the weight of the heavens, or universe, on his shoulders for his insolence to the gods.  (A very brief, lighthearted, account of Atlas’  infraction and punishment can be found here:  http://www.godchecker.com/pantheon/greek-mythology.php?deity=ATLAS.)

While I have never fully subscribed to libertarianism and less so to Rand’s philosophy of “Objectivism,” I’ve always admired her thesis in Atlas that the world is dependent on the … Read the rest

Sorry, this isn’t X-rated or even an R.  In fact, if we had to assign these stories a rating, they should get a D, for disgusting.

DrudgeReport.com reports a story out of Illinois–as if Illinois hasn’t had enough on its plate lately what with ex-Governor Blago and soon-to-be ex-Senator Burris–that almost makes urban legends of alligators in New York City’s sewer system sound good.

At least three possibly human placentas have been fished out of the Urbana-Champaign sewage treatment system: http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=D96K478O0&show_article=1. Potentially dangerously infectious, the placentas’ origins are uncertain, except for the fact they originated in mothers who had … Read the rest

“Meanwhile, Gore tours the globe in his Lear jet, dumping carbon monoxide emissions into the delicate troposphere and lower stratosphere. Then he hops into a gas-guzzling four-door Lincoln, gooses it up to seventy-five mph in a fiftyfive mph zone and gets a well-deserved ticket, for speeding not for polluting.

(National Review, September 13, 2004).

Then Al jets home to bask in the comfort of his opulent mansion in Nashville, gobbling up “more electricity in a month than the average American household uses in an entire year,” (“Al Gore’s Mansion Described as Energy Hog,” (CNSNEWS.com, February 27th, 2007).

America’s new president may very soon be challenged with the “test” that VP Joe Biden said was imminent, before he was told to shut up. 

North Korea has again been making noises about hurling a missile somewhere.  The where doesn’t count for Kim il-Sung    as much as the hurling since that act will prove the North Koreans are capable of hurling something aside from propaganda. 

Here is a shot of the North Korean army marching in rigid formation in hopes of getting a meal at the end of their day, instead of having to forage and chew and digest the … Read the rest

I post these “lawyer jokes” despite the fact my son is an attorney but knowing he will concur on their truth and accuracy, I hope.

These quotations are from a book called Disorder in the American Courts. They are things people actually said in court, word for word, taken down and now published by court reporters who had the torment of staying calm while these exchanges were actually taking place.

ATTORNEY: What was the first thing your husband said to you that morning?
WITNESS: He said, ‘Where am I, Cathy?’
ATTORNEY: And why did that upset you?
WITNESS: My name … Read the rest

Those smarter than I who do not subscribe to AOL may have missed these recent stories which, if nothing else, shed some minimal light on the human and political conditions in our world:   

*  Ever just feel you’re somehow being watched, even in the dark?  Well, AOL may have identified the watcher, and it’s not one of those traffic cameras which can be cause for your getting a ticket without the bother of encountering a traffic cop.  It’s the “Eye of God,” or at least that’s the name assigned a mysterious stellar configuration:  http://news.aol.com/article/eye-of-god/360730.  I don’t know what it … Read the rest

Barney made the news again! 

Not this Barney  but the other Barney, seen here reaching for some guy’s butt    which is apropos considering that Congressman Barney Frank is a declared and proud homosexual who now represents Massachusetts’ 4th district, including the towns of Dartmouth and Wellesley. 

This Barney is easily the most prominent and most powerful homosexual in American politics, representing two different Massachusetts districts (due to reapportionment), for some 28 years.

Fourteen terms in the House would be truly remarkable almost anywhere in the country but 14 terms for a congressman who has been so covered in dirt during … Read the rest

Rosie    consults Madonna    on menopause!  Ewwww!  http://www.usmagazine.com/news/rosie-odonnell-madonna-helping-me-deal-with-menopause-2009242.

The soon-to-be 50 Madonna, whose escapades and marriages will surely be the fodder for a B-direct to DVD movie someday, apparently is a font of knowledge when it comes to “women’s problems,” at least to 44 year old Rosie O’Donnell.  The latter is in consultation with the former on how to deal with menopause issues. 

Far too much information, ladies, especially Rosie’s description of her night sweats!  Maybe Madonna’s latest, 27 year old Justin Timberlake,    can be included in a menage a  trois and Madonna can share with Rosie her cougar techniques?  … Read the rest

In case anyone missed it, I had to update an earlier article regarding the anonymous mutterer at Gov. Bobby Jindal’s response to the president’s speech Tuesday night:

UPDATE:  This just in:  Apparently, it was none other than MSNBC’s Chris Matthews, shown here sporting his sweet smile,   who muttered, “Oh, God” as Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal entered the room to present the Republican point of view on Obama’s speech last night:  http://www.zimbio.com/Chris+Matthews/articles/55/Chris+Matthews+Quips+Oh+God+Live+Mic+Jindal

It still isn’t known whether Matthews, who is NOT suspected of being gay, felt that same thrill run up his leg–or whatever ran up his leg–when he was in … Read the rest
