Here’s a great post on what makes believable TV versus unbelievable TV. I’m still in the first season of Babylon 5, so I’m waiting to see how that pans out.

Could Anyone Beat Obama in 2012?
In a hypothetical match up with Obama, Sarah Palin now ties. When Palin was running as VP, Democrats had all these doomsday predictions of what things would be like if Sarah Palin were president. The problem is, those scenarios now look optimistic compared to how things actually are.
Now, I’m not saying Palin is my candidate for 2012, I’m just noting that the arguments against her don’t really hold much water anymore. The worst they could say about her is, “She lacks experience! She could possibly be nearly as bad as Obama!” which wouldn’t be a great argument when running against Obama. Obama is at a whole new level of suck, and it’s pretty certain anyone would be better as it seems unlikely suck lighting would strike twice like that.
We really should think hard on 2012, though, because we could have a chance of electing absolutely anyone we want. Obama will continue to screw everything up and probably have a slogan in 2012 like, “Shut up, stupids! I is smart!” And it won’t even be a challenge.
Dang; too bad I won’t be old enough to run until the 2016 election.
Yet More Frank Responds to Spam Comments
Everyone loves spam! They are blessing from the Great Landlord! Let’s see some more spam comments IMAO has gotten:
I attempted a subscription towards your rss feed, but had a problem adding it to google reader. Could you please look at this.
Google Reader does have known issues with made up spam people using them. Try shaking your computer while yelling at it. You always want to shake it until you hear something rattle inside.
Very Good Document AND I want TO Fit THIS Post IN MY Webpage.
Are You SAYING you want to STEAL My Post? Why Would you TELL ME this?
I just wanted to comment and say that I really enjoyed reading your blog post here. It was very informative and I also digg the way you write! Keep it up and I’ll be back to read more in the future
And what happens if I don’t keep it up? Is this some sort of threat? You sick, bastard!
I usually don’t article in post s but your post forced me to, amazing work.. beautiful …
Yes, my posts usually do render my commenters completely incoherent.
…Or maybe they’re just imitating me. Those bastards! I can’t believe they’d mock me like that! Oh I hate them so much. At least I have spam to be nice to me.
I wanted to write a comments abiut this, but I am at a loss for words
Yeah, you sure seemed to have lost the word “about”. When I can’t find words, I just grab a few from the dictionary. Acclimation Thrombosis Nocturne.
thanks !! very helpful Post! I did a search on the issue and found most people will agree with your blog.
I pride myself in having posts that most people will agree with as verified by searching. It’s almost political suicide that Obama hasn’t started a program to put rocket launchers on dinosaurs.
Here Are the People Democrats Think Should Be Making Decisions for You
Shelia Jackson-Lee on the two Vietnams:
Yeah, I have no idea what she thinks she is talking about. Also, a while ago she wondered why the Mars Pathfinder didn’t take pictures of the flag we planted there.
Now here is a point Republicans need to make early and often: By the Democrats’ vision of government, they want to put people like Shelia Jackson-Lee in charge of the economy and health care. I mean, have you ever seen a better advertisement to give our elected officials as little power as possible?
Random Thoughts
A lot think Palin might be a moron and a complete screw up as president, but it’s possible she’d be completely different from Obama.
There isn’t oil spilling into the Gulf right now? That’s weird.
How many seats will the Dems have to lose for them to suspect that it wasn’t just because Martha Coakley was such a bad candidate?
Reminder: You’ need to multiply the number of jobs Obama claims to have created or saved by the square root of -1.
Could the anonymous plumber who came up with the cap be Joe the plumber? Oh yeah; anonymous.
“Mystery Plumber” makes me think of Super Mario in a Mexican wrestler mask.
“Yeah, I stopped the oil leaking in the Gulf, so I should be able to handle your faucet.”
I am just BA Twitter followers away from 1000.
I haven’t done anything on my bucket list, including creating a bucket list.
Obama wrote his bucket list on the inside of a bucket, and when he tried to read it back… the inevitable happened.
So what’s a double-dip recession? I learned from Seinfeld that double-dips are bad.
Why does the official Keith Olbermann site say so many bad things about Obama? Is he racist?
Shelia Jackson-Lee: “It was pretty bad when the Hindenburg hit that iceberg, but now they live side by side.”
Hell in a hand basket. A pretty pink hand basket.
You’ve seen the picture of Jesse Thornhill, haven’t you? You know, the guy that tried to run over his landlord in Tulsa?

Some picked up on this passage from the story:
Tulsa Police say 28-year-old Jesse Thornhill tried to run down his landlord in his ’96 Ford Windstar van Tuesday evening in the 1200 block of South Delaware Place.
Yes, he was driving a 1996 Windstar.
But that, I can understand. You have to make the most with what you have. He had a Windstar and a landlord that needed running over. What else do you do? Run over your landlord with your Windstar, of course. It’s not like he had a fleet of other vehicles. Or, if he did, a Windstar is a better choice than a smart car.
A Windstar has many useful features. He could use it for moving bodies, or several body parts. He could transport several other tattooed freaks to the Dairy Queen or to the nearest altar in the woods. You want to make fun of the Windstar, but there could be legitimate uses for a Windstar.
What I don’t understand, though, is the pink shirt.
Having a single vehicle and that vehicle being a ’96 Windstar is reasonable.
But, seriously? A pink shirt? He didn’t have any other shirt? And why would he have a pink shirt?
Maybe my prejudice is showing. I don’t own a pink shirt. I supported Goldwater in 1964, and no one who supported Goldwater owns a pink shirt. I wasn’t old enough to vote for Goldwater, but still, I wanted those over 21 (18 in Georgia and Kentucky) to vote for Goldwater. And I didn’t own a pink shirt. Then or now.
How can anyone who looks like Jesse Thornhill expect to be taken seriously while wearing a pink shirt? The landlord wasn’t injured. Unless he pulled something while laughing at Jesse’s shirt.
I don’t know what this country is coming to. Sparkly vampires, pink-shirted demons, community organizers in the White House. It’s like Stephanie Meyer is writing the script. And if we don’t get our act together, in the future, people will be reading The Short Second Life of the United States (Obama Saga).
