Separated At Birth, Robert Reich Edition

by Smitty It takes a special kind of gasbag to arrive at the conclusion that “Obama Has Handed The Election Over To The Super Rich” What, did #OccupyResoluteDesk somehow disenfranchise us all by playing along with the SuperPAC game? “Good ends don’t justify corrupt means,” whines Reich. Which of Obama’s ends was the good one? [...]

Does It Make Eastwood A Bigger Chump Than Griffith, Though?

by Smitty The Hollywood Reporter tells us that, while Clint himself may not work for Mr. Obama, his collaborators on his Super Bowl pep talk did. I thought the ad was actually well done, except for the lack of context, as private sector unions are substantially at fault for Michigan’s plight. It turns out, however, that [...]

Bill Clinton Did Try To Bring About Peace For Israel

by Smitty In the credit where due department, Bill did make some effort: Half a dozen snarky things come to mind, but one will relax and opt for graciousness. via DavidVida004

Quaff That Kool-Aid!

by Smitty #OccupyOvalOffice would like to lament the fact that Triple-O can’t snap his fingers and make us all drink the Kool-Aid: Listen, buddy: you can’t have it both ways: either you’re a transformational figure standing in front of the Greek columns, or you’re just a mediocre crapflooder with “Property of the Plutocrats” stamped on [...]

The Curmudgeon Brings Another Sobering Video

by Smitty Another one of those reminders we need: These videos serve as good reminders of the details that #OccupyOvalOffice would prefer we forget, as evidenced by his “just-forget-the-last-three-years” SOTU address.

#OccupyOvalOffice: A Reasonable Title

by Smitty McEnroe offers: I’m not going to make a big deal out of this. Who wants to hear somebody natter on with the whole ‘mine is better’ argument? Just because my notion, #OccupyResoluteDesk had more educational value (everyone knows the POTUS sits in the Oval Office; how many know that the furniture he’s crouching [...]

Due To Unpopular Demand, The World’s Youngest Blogger May Not Attend CPAC

by Smitty Bill Quick links to Red State discussion of the plans for #OccupyCPAC. Let’s face facts: CPAC is a high-risk evolution. I’m talking about traveling to and from a major hotel in the capital city of the country, in daylight hours, using a mix of public and private transportation. That is really living on [...]

Lying With Numbers: How Obama Has Corrupted the Bureau of Labor Statistics

Tyler Durden digs down and discovers that the BLS understates the labor force by 5 million people, so it can report an 8.3 percent unemployment rate instead of the actual 11.5 percent rate. Furthermore — do they really think we’re this stupid? — the BLS reported that the labor force decreased by 1.2 million people [...]

I Repeat: The Bible Is Not A Political Tract

by Smitty “Who can take Alinsky, mix him up with faith, make them both sound rancid, while he runs his POTUS race? Obama man can, Obama man can. Obama man can, ’cause he takes a little Truth and mixes it with crap and makes you say: ‘Tastes good!’” Emphasis mine on the BuzzFeed quote: “And [...]

‘Gentleman’ Jim Moran Can’t Differentiate Between Allen West And A Hyena; Thinks That Barack Obama Is The Lion King

by Smitty Must see video that I can’t embed. Hard to tell when on Tuesday this was shot, but the possibility of immediately after a hydraulic lunch comes to mind*: “People like Mr. [Allen] West, and Governor Brewer and so on, particularly Mr. West, is not only not representative of the African-American community or of [...]

Global Warming Is Dead. Will ManBearPig Campaign For ‘Gentleman’ Jim Moran Again In 2012?

by Smitty Red Alexandria trots out the tiny violins for global warming, and showed what a tool VA State Senator Adam Ebbin is. Ebbin, however, is but a jeweler’s screwdriver compared to the breaker bar that is ‘Gentleman’ Jim; but neither can hold an incandescent bulb to the uber-tool that is ManBearPig, seen here campaigning [...]

Front Page Flogs The Dead Horse Known As The Buffet Rule

by Smitty Well edited contempt for #OccupyResoluteDesk and his crap-tacular ideas. Was the AMT really intended to go after “certain taxpayers“, or is it intended as a bomb to go off and gradually screw increasing numbers of people as the Federal Reserve inflates more people into the crosshairs?
