So Bill Clinton was repeatedly assuring Sanjay Gupta that none of the embryos that will be experimented on in embryonic stem cell research are fertilized. But know who’s dumb? Palin!
The reason liberals sound so sure of themselves when talking is that half the time they’re just making stuff up.
WASHINGTON (AP) – Citing “criticism of elected officials” as the major cause of “approval change”, President Barack Obama today announced a bold initiative to create a “political dissent cap & trade program” to minimize dangerous fluctuations in public opinion.

“Over the past two months,” said Obama, “scientists have documented a disturbing and threatening change in the approval ratings of America’s elected leaders. Their research has determined that this change is unquestionably the result of human activity, and that if left unchecked, the consequences will be disastrous. The good news is that this trend is not irreversible, and this administration will take swift, certain steps to combat the threat of approval change.”
The President noted that, except for a small fringe group of “approval deniers”, all reputable scientists agree that political dissent is the leading cause of approval change, and that limiting political dissent will solve the problem. Obama is proposing a “cap & trade” program that will ensure that no one uses more than their fair share of publicly-uttered discordant opinions.
“We have a political dissent crisis in this country,” said Obama. “Now is the time to set limits and bring dissent back down to safe, stable, 2008 levels. Every citizen will be allowed a certain amount of dissent, and those that don’t use it can sell it to others who want it. Those who exceed their limits will be fined, with that money going towards funding opinion-neutral information sources such as CNN, NPR, and Air America.”
“Frankly,” concluded Obama “I expect the fines from hateful, racist, Republican Party leader Rush Limbaugh to fund this program for decades.”
Regarding the proposed program, Rush Limbaugh issued only a brief statement: “I hope he fails”.
White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs later responded to this statement by saying “Ka-CHING!”.
The winning billboard slogan the DNC picked to really stick it to Rush…
“America Didn’t Vote for a Rush to Failure”
Or is it a slogan for Rush and against Obama? It’s so lame, it should be a campaign issue; can you really trust the country to people who came up with that as a slogan? It’s so lame, it would get a groan from a four year old. It’s so lame, it could be a joke on SNL. It’s so lame, the billboard will probably rip itself apart trying to punch itself in the face.
Anyway, it’s lame. Great job, Democrats.
I have an article up at Pajamas Media on how Obama’s brilliance may actually hurt us in foreign affairs. While many may think it’s heresy to say there may be a downside to Obama, I’m not afraid to take the tough positions.
