			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Georgia is in trouble with the DEA. The feds have <a href="http://www.ajc.com/news/executions-on-hold-for-875109.html">seized Georgia&#8217;s supply of thiopental</a>, which is one of the drugs used in the state&#8217;s lethal injection procedure.</p>
<p>It all began when customs held up a supply of thiopental in Memphis last summer. Seems some states, including Georgia, went and got some more from another source. Only that source, which the state identified as Link Pharmaceuticals, a British company (which was bought by Archimedes Pharma Limited around 5 years ago), <a href="http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/georgia-halts-executions-amid-concerns-over-drugs-from-uk-2244015.html">isn&#8217;t FDA approved</a>.</p>
<p>Last month, lawyer John Bentivoglio <a href="http://www.ajc.com/news/state-accused-of-violating-851875.html">wrote a letter to Eric Holder</a> complaining about how the state got the drug. Bentivoglio wrote Holder on behalf of death row inmate Andrew Grant DeYoung, who killed his parents and teenage sister back in 1993.</p>
<p>Now, the DEA has seized the state&#8217;s supply of drugs.</p>
<p>Something similar happened in Arizona last year, and the <a href="http://www.supremecourt.gov/orders/courtorders/102610zr.pdf">Supreme Court gave the state the go-ahead</a> to use its supply of drugs. Two days later, Arizona <a href="http://www.thaindian.com/newsportal/world-news/jeffrey-landrigan-executed-after-20-years-on-death-row_100451272.html">executed</a> the i<a href="http://www.azcorrections.gov/adc/datasearch/drow_info/082157.asp?InmateNumber=082157&#038;FN=LANDRIGAN%20JEFFREY,%20T">nmate </a>in question.</p>
<p>Anyway, some people are all upset that one of the drugs that Georgia uses to kill people might not be safe.</p>
<p>This is one of those things that, a few years ago, would have been a story in the Onion or some other satiric source.</p>
<p>In Obama America (AKA Bizarro World), it&#8217;s business as usual.</p>

<p>We want our Hitler. And Constantin Film is <a href="http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/hr/content_display/news/e3i4062457efae56fa3a40d08067da3907a">taking our Hitler away</a>.</p>

<p>&#8220;kthx&#8221; kitteh sez 2 walrus</p>
<p>but teh bukkit waz not founds</p>
<p>teh walrus did his searches more</p>
<p>at worldz ending, he have decided 2 goes in teh following world</p>
<h3>In Frank&#8217;s World</h3>
<p><span id="more-1396"></span><br />
Barack Obama saw the walrus loping along, looking sad.</p>
<p>&#8220;A potential voter!&#8221; Obama cried. &#8220;Stop the car.&#8221;</p>
<p>The Cadillac Eldorado screeched to a halt. Obama hit the switch, the tinted window eased down, and a cloud of smoke emerged into the daylight.</p>
<p>The walrus looked at the car, and at the strange creatures inside. They looked vaguely like the man who he last saw with his bucket, but then again, somehow different.</p>
<p>&#8220;have u seen mah bukkit&#8221; the walrus asked.</p>
<p>&#8220;Oh, I know what he wants,&#8221; Crack Dealer Steve said.</p>
<p>&#8220;You always think that,&#8221; Bill Ayers said. &#8220;This guy, I can tell by the look on his face. He wants to blow up America. He&#8217;s mine.&#8221;</p>
<p>Jeremiah Wright sat silently for a few seconds. Then, &#8220;Go help the brother out, Barack.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Yes, sir,&#8221; Obama replied.</p>
<p>He pulled the handle, and the door to the Eldorado swung open. </p>
<p>&#8220;has u seen mah bukkit&#8221; the walrus asked as the tall man approached.</p>
<p>&#8220;You have a bucket?&#8221; Obama asked.</p>
<p>&#8220;mah buckkit has gone&#8221; said the walrus.</p>
<p>&#8220;A bucket?&#8221; Obama repeated, his eyes glowing with anticipation. He turned around and headed toward the trunk of the car.</p>
<p>As Obama headed to the trunk, the door to the Eldorado opened, and four ACORN workers emerged, running up to the walrus.</p>
<p>&#8220;I got him! I got him!&#8221; yelled the first one.</p>
<p>&#8220;He&#8217;s mine! He&#8217;s mine!&#8221; the second one cried.</p>
<p>The third one pushed the first two to the ground, only to feel number four grab a handful of his hair and jerk him to the ground.</p>
<p>&#8220;I speak Walrus,&#8221; number four said. &#8220;Goo goo ga joob.&#8221;</p>
<p>The other three ACORN workers recovered and descended on the walrus.</p>
<p>Overwhelmed, the walrus was unable to escape until he had registered to vote in 87 times in six states. He put the food stamps and cigarettes the ACORN workers gave him under his arm and slowly wandered away.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, Obama had popped the trunk and grabbed the bucket on top of the stash he kept on hand. He placed it on his head, then struggled to remove it.</p>
<p>&#8220;Not again,&#8221; the Secret Service agent said. He spoke into his wrist, &#8220;Seau Tête is at it again,&#8221; referring to Obama by his new code name.</p>
<p>* * * *</p>
<p>The walrus looked at his bounty and grew sad.</p>
<p>&#8220;i miss mah bukkit&#8221; he cried.</p>
<p>He approached the border to the next world. He paused, wondering if the next world would be any better.</p>
<p>Taking a chance, he stepped into the next world.</p>
<h3>Bizarro World</h3>
<p>&#8220;has u seen mah bucket&#8221; the walrus asked.</p>
<p>&#8220;Yes, I have,&#8221; Barack Obama answered. &#8220;Your bucket had too many fish in it, and it was unfair to the other walruses and seals that didn&#8217;t have as many fish.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;u has mah bukkit?&#8221; the walrus asked.</p>
<p>&#8220;Thinking of it as <em>your</em> bucket is selfish,&#8221; Obama told the walrus.</p>
<p>A small cat approached.</p>
<p>&#8220;i can has cheezburger?&#8221; the kitty asked.</p>
<p>&#8220;You can have a fish,&#8221; Obama told the kitty. He reached for the bucket that formerly belonged to the walrus, extracted a fish, and gave it to the kitty.</p>
<p>The kitty looked at the fish. It had obviously been in the bucket for some time. It smelled of decay. It looked like nightmare. </p>
<p>The kitty slowly backed away.</p>
<p>Looking up at Obama, the kitty asked again, &#8220;I can has cheezburger?&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;I know you have hope. Hope for a cheeseburger,&#8221; Obama said. &#8220;And we&#8217;re agents of hope. But we&#8217;re also agents of change. And your hope for a cheeseburger has been changed to a rotted, half-eaten fish. That&#8217;s the change we need. It&#8217;s the change you need.&#8221;</p>
<p>The kitty and the walrus looked at each other.</p>
<p>&#8220;i goes home&#8221; said the kitty.</p>
<p>&#8220;i goes to home 2&#8243; said the walrus.</p>
<p>And though they walked toward the border of Bizarro World and Frank&#8217;s World, they were horrified to discover that Bizarro World continued. Where was Frank&#8217;s World?</p>
<p>Their journey towards home continued. But when they reached where the border with LOLWorld was, they found that Bizarro World continued.</p>
<p>There was no cheeseburger. In LOLWorld, the kitty wanted a cheeseburger. He didn&#8217;t get a cheesburger, but there was the hope of a cheeseburger.</p>
<p>There was no bucket. In LOLWorld, the walrus wanted his bucket returned. He wasn&#8217;t able to find his bucket, but there was hope of getting his bucket.</p>
<p>But all that was gone now.</p>
<p>There was only Obama.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hugo Chavez is reported to have said that he looks forward to talking with &#8220;<a href="http://africa.reuters.com/energyandoil/news/usnN02487792.html">the black man</a>&#8221; in the White House.</p>
<p>But, you know what? I bet he didn&#8217;t say that.</p>
<p>Oh, sure, Klingons speak English. Saw that on <em>Star Trek</em>. Cardassians, too. And the Borg. Romulans, Vulcans, Q, they all speak English. Even those green Orion slave women speak English. And those people on <em>Twilight Zone</em> that want <em>To Serve Man</em>, even they speak English.</p>
<p>But Hugo Chavez doesn&#8217;t.</p>
<p>I looked up <a href="http://www.lasextanoticias.com/noticia/que/viva/hombre/negro/291461">what he said</a>:</p>
<blockquote><p>No le pedimos que sea un revolucionario, que sea un socialista, no, sólo que se coloque el hombre negro que está a punto de llegar a ser presidente de los Estados Unidos (&#8230;) ojalá se ubique a la altura del momento que vive el mundo.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>&#8220;El hombre negro.&#8221; The black man.</p>
<p>If I said that, I&#8217;d be in a world of hurt. But since Chavez said it, it&#8217;s okay. Since Chavez is one of The Anointed One&#8217;s friends.</p>
<p>Anyway, Obama &#8230; oops, I mean El Hombre Negro &#8230; is Hugo Chavez&#8217; choice for President of the U.S.</p>
<p>Even the Klingons, Romulans, Cardassians, Borg, or any other evil race has the decency to stay out of it.</p>
<p>But, here in Bizarro World, it&#8217;s a positive for Obama &#8230; excuse me, I mean, El Hombre Negro &#8230; to have someone like Hugo Chavez as a supporter.</p>
<p>I miss my planet Earth.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Barack Obama called John McCain, Sarah Palin, and conservatives in general, &#8220;<a href="http://blogs.abcnews.com/politicalpunch/2008/11/obama-brings-ba.html">selfish</a>&#8221; for opposing his plan to take your money and &#8220;spread the wealth around&#8221; by giving it to others.</p>
<p>Some Obama supporters, like <a href="http://townhall.com/columnists/TerryPaulson/2008/11/02/democracies_die_when_liberty_gives_way_to_dependence&#038;Comments=true">Peggy Johnson</a>, say Obama will take care of them:<br />
<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/381gFG4Crr8&#038;color1=0xb1b1b1&#038;color2=0xcfcfcf&#038;fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/381gFG4Crr8&#038;color1=0xb1b1b1&#038;color2=0xcfcfcf&#038;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object></p>
<p>Obama has had a <a href="http://www.hispanicbusiness.com/news/2008/10/31/florida_race_tightens_as_hispanic_vote.htm">lead with Hispanic voters</a> for some time &#8212; though that gap is closing &#8212; because of how he&#8217;s perceived regarding the immigration issue.</p>
<p>So, how do those perceptions bear up to the facts?</p>
<p>They don&#8217;t.</p>
<p>Why would Obama take care of Peggy Johnson, when he won&#8217;t take care of his own aunt?</p>
<p>She&#8217;s been living &#8212; illegally &#8212; in <a href="http://ap.google.com/article/ALeqM5iVVj5SjAgqpjIbqdmcOB74FtqRIAD9467GCG0">a Boston slum for four years</a>. And Obama <a href="http://www.cbsnews.com/blogs/2008/11/02/politics/horserace/entry4564110.shtml">isn&#8217;t trying to help her stay here</a>.</p>
<p>But, remember, this is Bizzaro World we&#8217;re now living in.</p>
<p>What&#8217;s the big focus of the story about Obama&#8217;s Aunt Zeituni?</p>
<p>There&#8217;s an investigation to <a href="http://blogs.abcnews.com/politicalpunch/2008/11/customs-officia.html">find out who told</a>.</p>
<p>Gosh, I miss reality. This whole Bizzaro World is taking some getting used to.</p>
