Slow Joe Biden: Sure There’s A Bunker, Here’s A Map

May 17, 2009 |   |  Politics

One of US Vice President Slow Joe Biden’s recent verbal gaffes may have inadvertantly revealed not only the existence of a classified secure area to which the Vice President can retreat during national security crises, but also the top secret location of the underground bunker.

The gaffe, allegedly made during a recent dinner with the press, was reported by Newsweek’s raging leftist Washington contributing editor Eleanor Clift.

Obama: Hey, Who Spent All This Money?

May 15, 2009 |   |  1 Comment  |  National

obama-brainUS President Barack Obama launched a blistering attack against the fiscal policies of US President Barack Obama yesterday, denouncing Obama’s spending plans as “unsustainable” and warning that Obama’s spending would lead to skyrocketing interest rates and more pain for consumers.

“We can’t keep on just borrowing from China,” Obama said at a town-hall meeting in Rio Rancho, New Mexico, outside Albuquerque. “We have to pay interest on that debt, and that means we are mortgaging our children’s future with more and more debt.”

Holders of U.S. debt will eventually “get tired” of buying it, causing interest rates on everything from auto loans to home mortgages to increase, Obama said. “It will have a dampening effect on our economy.”

Media Chuckles As Palin Hires Ghost Writer For Book

May 14, 2009 |   |  National

The classless leftist media is in hysterics over the announcement that Governor Sarah Palin is writing a book. Newsbusters points out particularly obnoxious comments by Chris Matthews and Chicago Tribune blogger Mark Silva about the announcement.

CHRIS MATTHEWS: Plus Sarah Palin –- now don’t laugh –- is writing a book. Not just reading a book, writing a book. Actually in the word of the publisher she’s “collaborating” on a book. I love the way that sounds. Does that mean she answers questions of the writer and then the writer writes the book?

Maybe she’ll speak and the writer will get a thrill up his or her leg?

CBS3 EyeUseless News

May 14, 2009 |   |  1 Comment  |  Television

austrailian-shepherd-puppyI realize I’m probably the only person to watch CBS3’s worthless Eyewitness News last night, or any night since they fired all the interesting people for that matter, but I saw a story of interest previewed and I hit “Record” on the DVR so I could catch it.

They ran a story called “Pet Care Danger” all about a rash of complaints being filed with the EPA over dogs getting sick from those spot-applied flea and tick liquids.  So around midnight I finally get to the recording and fast-forward through all the droning to the story I want to see.

As the dad of three dogs, I sat through all the personal stories and painful dog-death home videos, hoping to get some actual information about what products are killing these dogs.  Nothing. Nada.  Not one brand name was mentioned or shown.

At the end of the story, they said I should go to their web site to get a list of the products causing the problems. OK, fair enough.  So I head to the web site, and the link is to an EPA PDF file listing EVERY FLEA-AND-TICK DROP KNOWN TO MANKIND AS OF MAY 6, 2009.

So here it is May.  Fleas, ticks and all manner of bugs are starting to fill the yard.  And I am now entirely petrified to put any kind of protection on the dogs out of fear they’ll wind up like Lincoln the Golden Retriever in the shock video: Shivering, whimpering and dying.  I guess I’ll just throw some dirt in the corner of the kitchen and let them crap over there?

All scare, no information.  Thanks, CBS3!  You’ve got the lady sitting there telling you every detail about the death of her beloved dog, but you don’t mention the product that she believes actually killed him? Can someone just get me the name of something that won’t kill my dogs but will kill ticks and fleas?

Abject Failure: Obama Housing Rescue Plan

May 14, 2009 |   |  2 Comments  |  National

I can’t be the only one who remembers the great fanfare and claims that Barack Obama had saved the housing market when he announced his “Making Home Affordable” program almost three months ago, can I? I was sitting in the Dunkin’ Donuts in Bensalem on February 18, trying to enjoy a nice mid-day Sausage, Egg and Cheese Wheat Bagel when Dumbo came on the screen live from Mesa, Arizona and proclaimed himself the savior of the economy.

Obama Tax Lie Revisited: Death Tax And Deduction Edition

May 12, 2009 |   |  3 Comments  |  National

Wow.  I get to use this twice in one day.

“I can make a firm pledge,” he said in Dover, N.H., on Sept. 12. “Under my plan, no family making less than $250,000 a year will see any form of tax increase. Not your income tax, not your payroll tax, not your capital gains taxes, not any of your taxes.”

He repeatedly vowed “you will not see any of your taxes increase one single dime.”

Barack Obama announced a series of tax proposals today that show what an incredible lie his campaign promise to not raise any taxes on any “family making less than $250,000” was.
