Zo discusses and recounts his visit to CPAC:
I love his little bit about people too good for the two party system at the end.
Remember the recent presidential election?
Sure you do. It was in all the papers.
Anyway, there was talk about how bad the economy was, and that putting a Democrat in office — even a raving socialist like Obama — would bring back the Clinton economy. Remember that?
Well, guess what? It’s happened.
The Dow closed this afternoon at 6725.02. It hasn’t closed that low since April 21st, 1997, when it closed at 6660.21.
That’s when Clinton was president.
At this rate, we’ll soon be a prosperous as we were during the Roosevelt administration, where the Dow peaked at 194.40, on March 10, 1937.
Ah, the good old days.
I know all about Fred Thompson, but somehow I missed that he and his wife Jeri have a new radio show. And then I find out today that Jeri read one of my posts on the air (with credit, of course). Awesome. Hopefully I can get audio of it.
The show is up against Rush Limbaugh in many markets, though, which is a lot like trying to punch out the sun. Of course, Fred Thompson punches out the sun on a regular basis.
Apparently the New Yorker has already denounced the Watchmen movie as “fascistic”, so it’s probably going to be pretty awesome.
Note to Liberals: I think a lot of you are probably confused about what actual fascism is. If anything a country has done has caused you to applaud, that’s probably a good example of fascism right there.
This week terrorists, next week That One. Submit for either at lolterizt@gmail.com
Meanwhile, pass ’em around, spread the love, and if you make your own, don’t be shy about dropping a link to your pics in the comments. The more, the merrier.

This week’s uncaptioned picture for you to play with:

I know, technically Castro’s a commie, not a terrorist, although disgruntled Cubans might beg to differ. If Fidel hadn’t had them all killed.
PRODUCTION NOTES:
#1: When creating lolterizt! pictures, please caption with either black or white text, as colors like red and yellow tend to blur badly when I compress the images.
#2: Standard image size for these posts is 350px wide by whatever high. If you can have your images 350px wide before you caption them, I won’t end up shrinking your captions into illegibility when I re-size the images.
MAKE YOUR OWN: The free lolbuilder from I Can Has Cheezburger.
STYLE NOTE: Short captions are usually better. Your goal is 10 words or less, with humor value tending to increase exponentially as the number of words approaches 1.
HAT TIP: Snapped Shot for handy links to ripe-for-captioning photos.
Send your submissions to lolterizt@gmail.com and – if they aren’t obscene (IMAO is a PG-13 site) and don’t suck too terribly bad – I’ll post them for you. Remember to include your name (and blog URL, if applicable) so I know who to thank.
So Obama’s new budget will having him spending $25,000 per tax payer. At this point, I’m all for just completely disbanding the federal government because it can’t be doing anything I couldn’t do way cheaper with $50,000 for me and SarahK. For that money, I could make sure terrorists don’t attack me, shoot my own criminals, and have plenty of money left over to give myself a huge rebate. I think a federal government is a great thing to have, but no way it’s worth $50,000 a year to my family. I’d pay maybe $5,000 a year for the terrorist killing… maybe more if the military promises to get moving on genetically resurrecting dinosaurs so they can put rocket launchers on them. But that’s all I’ll pay for; I don’t want any of that other crap.
“Kill terrorists; none of that other crap” should be the new motto for the Republican Party in regards to the federal government. We should be promising the trimmed down Windows 7 version of federal government to the Democrats’ giant, bloated, malfunctioning Vista. That’s how we distinguish ourselves and get a movement going.
Michael Steele described something he recently said as “inarticulate” which set off my racism alarm which soon just led to plain confusion. I was hoping electing a black president would mean we wouldn’t have to worry about stuff like this anymore, but I’m kinda getting worried that that’s about all we’re going to do for four to eight years.
I think a lot of people are confused by how we can wish for the best for this country and not support Obama. If we love this country, shouldn’t we want Obama to succeed at improving the economy?
Let’s put it this way: Let’s say a building is on fire. Someone — let’s call him Bomama — sincerely wants to put that fire out. The problem is he’s very stupid and his idea to put the fire out is to throw gasoline on it. So, while we might support Bomama’s goal of putting out the fire, we would do that by directly opposing his actions. To put it another way, we support Obama, but we oppose his economic policies. Or to put it yet another way, we feel the best way to support Obama is to send him home safe to Chicago.
Understand?
Having a black president, we need to be especially wary of racism. Part of that is not using the word “monkey” in any context that relates to President Obama. The problem is, this is a politically focused website and thus any post on it is in some way related Obama. So it after much deliberation it has been decided the word “monkey” will now be banned from use at IMAO while Obama is president. If you must use a word when describing actual monkeys, please use “simian” or “primate” (or “ape” if appropriate) or whatever the simian’s actual formal species name is.
Thank you, and I hope you keep enjoying IMAO.
