Obama is said to be much more popular in foreign countries than the previous president, and I guess a part of that is if you ever insult him, he will ban you from ever visiting America. I guess one of the perks of being the U.S. President is being able to boss around people from other countries, but it still seems a little harsh. Still, this policy makes sure that in America you won’t run into people who constantly insult the president — other than most Americans, of course.

Obstacle to Good Government: Cows
Represenative Bob Etheridge has a new excuse not to answer questions from people. Last time his excuse was that he’s a violent weirdo who doesn’t like questions, but this time it’s because of cows. Etheridge left an event where he was answering questions an hour early because he got word his cows had gotten out, and apparently that needed his direct supervision. Who knows what happens with his cows if they get out while he’s in DC; I guess they just wreak havoc on the countryside unabated until Etheridge can finally come home and grab them and put them in headlocks and demand to know who they are — which they never answer being that they are cows.
I wonder if this is something we can use against Democrats if they try anything during a lame duck session.
“Now, let’s pass Cap & Trade and amnesty and– I just got a text… Oh no! Please no! The cows have gotten out! I. MUST. STOP. THEM!”
DISCLAIMER: I’ve done some work for the Renee Ellmers campaign and support all cows roaming free.
So What Exactly Do Liberals Fear About Palin?
I guess it’s kinda late to be asking this, but have liberals ever been clear on exactly what why they’re so scared of Palin? They seem to think she’s a crazed extremist, but I’ve never heard what exactly were the crazy extreme policies she had as governor that were so scary. All the Palin objections seem to be of the form of:
“If Palin were elected governor, she’d… uh… Palin us! And… uh… there’s… I think I read somewhere she doesn’t think dinosaurs are really old!”
The biggest reasonable objection I can think to Palin is that she doesn’t have much experience, but liberals can’t make that objection unless they first admit Obama is a huge disaster. There’s also how Palin resigned, but if people don’t like Palin they should like how she resigns public office.
Liberals were really sure Obama would be a smart, great president despite his having no accomplishments to suggest that and they’re sure Palin is a crazed extremists despite there being no evidence from her record in public office to suggest that. We really need to push liberals towards using for actual logic and evidence to reach conclusions instead of making conclusion based on what they really want to be true. Maybe we could get them to watch Mythbusters, though the explosions may scare them.
lolterizt! Part 116
Oh, and the rumors are true – it’s my birthday today. HINT: I just became the most powerful handgun in the world, and I feel lucky.
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.
NOTE TO READERS: Hovering your mouse over the picture activates closed captioning for the l33t-speak/txtmsg impaired.

This week’s uncaptioned picture for you to play with:
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: Brian of Snapped Shot‘s magnificent EvilFeed – the world’s best source for ripe-for-captioning terrorist 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.
Random Thoughts
Wife’s been having contractions. I guess that means labor is coming soon… or she’s Lore.
Is there any indication Mike Castle will be the next Hagel, because I’d vote for an avowed Communist over Hagel. I just hate his smug, little media-whore face. GRAH! I SO HATE HAGEL!!!
I don’t like either the nut or the RINO in Delaware. I hope they both lose the primary.

Unfortunately for MeggieMac, among her target audience her book is considered a choking hazard.
Very few ranges let you practice diving from cover while firing two guns which makes me feel ill-prepared anytime I go to Hong Kong.
What’s with the Gallup generic ballot poll? The thing is so unstable I’m afraid it’s going to explode.
If you’re ever shot, kneel down behind some crates for a few seconds until you heal.
Do you feel older? Well, do ya … Harvey?!?
While nobody was looking … somebody got old.
Well, not really old. I was his age once.
Harvey is older today. Of course, you’re older today than you were yesterday. It’s just that Harvey is older on the anniversary of his getting older.
I’m saying it’s his birthday.
How old is Harvey? I’ll let him tell you. Or you can figure out my hint.
Anyway, wish Harvey a happy birthday. Because, well, he deserves it.
