Amnesty Compromise

We seem to be talking about illegal immigration again. After President Obama’s super-popular health care bill, it’s time for some super-popular amnesty legislation.

Now, quite some time ago I came up with the compromise solution of obliterating Mexico. This is basically amnesty as we wouldn’t have anywhere to deport most illegal immigrants. At the same time, we won’t have to worry about anymore illegal immigration from the south. Seemed a pretty fair trade off to me.

Still, I have another idea. No amnesty, no path to citizen for those who broke the law, but we give California to Mexico. That’s right, Mexico, it’s yours completely now; have at it. Some won’t like the idea of giving territory to those who are wronging us, but frankly I think we come out better on that deal. Now straddled with California and all its problems and debt, I think Mexico is going to wish it respected our border.

It’s the End of the Country as We Know It, So Let’s Have Fun

The idea of the Democrats in power now seems to be to as erode as much rights as possible and get more control in the hands of the government. Unfortunately, it’s really hard to roll that back, but another strategy would be to just have fun with it. See, the Republicans should regain majorities again, so maybe we should just abuse this new found power. Like, Democrats are going to force people to buy health insurance, and if that somehow passes the Supreme Court, let’s think of all the things we can force liberals to buy when we’re back in control:

THINGS TO FORCE LIBERALS TO BUY

* Bibles

* Guns

* Soap

* Country music

* Glenn Beck’s latest book

* An angry badger

* Framed photo of Ronald Reagan

Afterward, maybe liberals will be like, “Hey, maybe giving the government so much power was a bad idea.” Too late!

Random Thoughts

Must be confusing for kids playing cowboys and Indians these days because how are call-center workers supposed to take on cowboys?

So when does my insurance rate go down the promised 3000%? I hope it’s before the end of the month.

There is no excuse to not be civil unless you’re really really really sure you’re right and the other side is wrong.

People are worried about jobs and terrorism, so Obama goes after health care and our nuclear stockpile. Not sure we’re on same page.

So what’s the absolute best outcome we hope for from just letting North Korea be?

I think my greatest fear for our new child is that he will have a Bostonian accent.

Justin Bieber is so dreamy. Like how he has a fish head; that’s something straight out of a nonsensical dream.

David Frum is the thinking man’s Meghan McCain. By “thinking man” I mean “nominally sentient.”

Is it weird I refer to 256 as a “nice round number”?

The transition to computing would have been easier if we had one less finger on each hand.

24 is canceled. We’ve even given up the war on fictional terrorists.

The series debuted right after 9/11, showing us how much more effective terrorists would be if they were secretly backed by rich white people.

I hope this government being able to force us to buy stuff isn’t going to escalate. Corporate interests are going to love that one. “Buy Coca Cola: It’s the law!”

What’s with military ranks and them being pronounced nothing like they’re spelled? Colonel is “kernel” and in UK lieutenant is “leftenant”.

Heroes fight

The character in this clip from Angel Season 5 was actually talking about The Apocalypse, not about Democrats running things. But it does seem quite appropriate.

Transcript:

What did you, you think a gong was going to sound? Time to jump on your horses and fight the big fight?

Starting pistol went off a long time ago, boys. You’re playing for the bad guys.

Every day you sit behind your desk an you — you learn a little more about how to accept the world the way it is. Well here’s the rub: Heroes don’t do that. Heroes don’t accept the world the way it is. They fight it.

Then again, maybe he was talking about Democrats running things.

Better not take any chances.

More White Supremacists running for Congress … oh, wait

Everybody knows that Republicans are a bunch of racist, homophobic, angry White men who hate all minorities.

And they want to add even more racist, homophobic, angry White men to Congress.

Just look at this list from The Frederick Douglass Foundation (tip: Alex Pappas from The Daily Caller):

Now, I’m not saying these are the best choices in any upcoming Congressional race. But, it shows that the loony left is … well, loony … when it comes to their portrayal of Republicans.

Conspiracy Theory

President Obama is a secret Muslim.

Know how I know?

Look at his signature:

Ever notice how his B looks like an Islamic crescent & star?:

Check it out, crescent in red, left side of star in green:

We’re through the looking glass, here, people

*adjusts tinfoil hat*

Mirror Universe Obama

Since Frank mentioned Obama with an Evil Spock beard:

I can’t help wondering what the Mirror Universe Obama would be like.

I’m thinking he’d be like this awesome mash-up of the Founding Fathers, with Thomas Jefferson’s love of liberty, Patrick Henry’s fiery rhetoric, George Washington’s military acumen, and the Rumsfeld Strangler’s violent murdering of liberals.

What do YOU think he’d be like?

Andrew Breitbart is racist!!1!!!

Last weekend, when those members of Congress spread those lies about the protesters, we had video of the incident.

They said that racial slurs were hurled, but the video showed otherwise.

I asked what excuse the left might use to explain why the truth doesn’t match the story. And, sure enough, they’ve come up with all kinds. Most of them saying that the videos were edited or incomplete. However, since Jesse Jackson, Jr., who was with the Congressmen, was videotaping the event, you’d figure there’d be proof of their claims. If they were true.

They aren’t.

Andrew Breitbart is not only saying the Congressmen’s claims are false, he’s offering a bounty to anyone that can back up those claims.

He’s offering $10,000 if Rep. John Lewis, a Georgia Democrat, can prove his claims:

Rep. Lewis, if you can’t do that, I’ll give him a backup plan: a lie detector test. If you provide verifiable video evidence showing that a single racist epithet was hurled as you walked among the tea partiers, or you pass a simple lie detector test, I will provide a $10K check to the United Negro College Fund.

Will Lewis collect for the UNCF? Nope. But you know what I think the left will do? Accuse Breitbart of being a racist, because his offer includes the word “Negro.”

Notice

Just to be clear I’m not inciting violence, when I say, “Punch liberals in their dumb monkey faces,” I’m being metaphorical.

Punch them even if they have normal faces.

…I’m just kidding! There’s no reason to do something extreme like punching someone in the face when socking them in the gut and shouting, “Hippie!” will do.

New Plan for California

California has nothing been nothing but trouble for America lately and will probably only help swallow us in debt. So here’s a new idea to take care of California:

We sell it.

You’re probably saying, “You’ve had that idea before!” Yeah, maybe I did — I’m not good on the remembering — but there is more to this idea. See, we sell it cheap (we can’t give it away or it will be suspicious) to some country. They’ll probably be like, “This is our chance to make it big!” and invest all they have in California. And maybe, miracle of miracles, they get California back in working order. Like maybe a brutal dictatorship takes it over and whips everyone in line. If that happens — BAM! — we invade California and take it back. It’s right there, so that should be easy.

This could be bad PR for us, though. What if giving California to another country will be compared to when we gave infected blankets to the Indians?

Lowering Expectations on Obamacare

Is it just me, or is it now that Obamacare has passed, Obama is starting to lower expectations on it? Here’s an excerpt from his recent speech on his “I Won” tour:

“Let me be clear, I never said this wouldn’t destroy the economy. Things will probably get worse before they get better. Much worse. You’ll probably wish you never heard of me… or at least more so than you do now. But this is all part of the plan. I never said things would get better right away. Or in the near future. Or in your lifetimes. But my plan will be working, and someday — perhaps in a far distant future with jetpacks and laser rifles — you’ll begin to see improvements in your health care. Or maybe the improvements will appear in an alternate universe where I have an evil Spock beard. The point is, this plan will work, sometime, someplace — but perhaps not perceivable to the naked eye.”

That’s quite a bit different from his rhetoric a week ago before the vote on Obamacare:

“When my health care plan passes, your insurance rates will go down 3000%. Immediately. You will be paid to be sick. In fact, the healthy will envy the sick. And if even one more person gets cancer, then my plan will have failed. But it will not fail. And gummy bears will be free from now on. And we will live as gods. Gods, I say! Gods!”

GOP Slogans for the Left

I was thinking, why doesn’t the GOP ever advertise itself to the far left. Like maybe they can take out ads on Daily Kos with specially targeted slogans. Well, maybe not “slogans” so much as “taunts” or “threats”. Here’s what I was thinking:

GOP SLOGANS FOR THE LEFT

“We Are Going to Destroy Everything You Love”

“We Will Be Nourished by Your Tears”

“They’re All Going to Laugh at You”

“Think of the worse thing that ever happened in your life. Multiple that by a million. That’s what you have to look forward to after November.”

“Your Pathetic Existence Will Soon Become Completely Intolerable”

“All You Fear Will Come to Pass”

“You Will Never Have Happiness Again”

What would you like for a GOP slogan targeted to the left?

Random Thoughts

With how the left keep saying the right is violent and must be stopped, I’m afraid the left is soon going to get violent. Saying one side is encouraging violence is just going to encourage violence. We need to stop irresponsible anti-violence rhetoric before it leads to violence. Look what happened to Ann Coulter.

Next generation won’t even be capable of political violence thanks to obesity.

So what’s all this talk of right-wing violence? Did a Dutch cartoonist depict Ronald Reagan?

Why would someone shoot at Cantor? Despite his job title, he doesn’t actually whip minorities.

Let’s not equivocate. Democrats are getting threats, but no one threatened Cantor. They only shot at him.

What we need at times like this is some big celebrity scandal to distract everybody. Tom Hanks, want to take one for the team?

If we act upset at attacks on Republicans, we’ll only encourage more attacks on Democrats. Best attitude: “Pfft. Who cares. Shoot at Cantor all you want.”

Where do kids learn political violence? Videogames. If only Mario tried to settle his disputes with King Koopa non-violently. Fire flowers are supposed to be registered, so of course Bowser wanted to end the question-mark block loophole.

Can’t we all calm down and focus on the real enemy: Rogue asteroids.

Nothing to be angry about. I never expected the country to be around forever. Going to enjoy it while it’s here, though.

My advice, make sure to have the backup skill of digging holes. No matter what, the world will always need more ditches.

I just hope the inevitable collapse of this country doesn’t happen before the release of Iron Man 2.

I expect the biggest challenge for us right after the collapse of America will be shoddily constructed Thunderdomes.

I propose we get ahead of the curve and create a Thuderdome regulatory commission.

Also, to conserve material, we should consider making our leather jackets with only one sleeve.

Anyway, I’d started reserving your Blaster Apprenticeship with the Master Blaster.

It must have been cool to be the first Roman in your neighborhood to get a glass window. “It’s solid, but you can see through it! Will technology ever cease to amaze!”

Politics go deep, but it should never be what you are.

In the next Star Trek movie they’re going to take on Kahn and finally start to see the improvements from Obamacare.

A lot of people seem to think Frum is smart, but how smart can you be and lack self-awareness of how irritating you are to fellow cons?

The IRS is now going to be part of your health care. Audits will soon also involve a colonoscopy.

Community is funny is so many different ways it’s not funny. Except it is.

Alpha Proxima Day

This needs mentioning, since “Earth Hour” is Saturday at 8:30pm

Help Soylent Green celebrate Alpha Proxima Day.

Which, as we all know, is the day where you turn on enough lights in your house to outshine both Alpha and Proxima Centauri

Yes, I know that for the IMAO readership, EVERY day is Alpha Proxima Day, but feel free to make a special effort Saturday night, because a bunch of eco-dipnuts and their gullible and trendy college-age acolytes aren’t going to be doing their part to keep America’s generators humming and her power plant workers securely employed.

Hey, here’s a thought. If you live next to someone who actually participates in Earth Hour, cut their power lines so that when they go to turn their lights back on at 9:30, the electricity that they just denigrated will appear to have gotten their rude little message and granted their wish to live forever in the dark like cavemen.

Maybe next time they won’t take electricity for granted.
