Mythbusting Obama

The president was on Mythbusters last night. Did you see it? I did. Not because Obama was on the show, but in spite of it. Not a fan of Obama. Am a fan of Mythbusters.

Anyway, he asked Adam and Jamie to retest a myth:

Adam and Jamie tested the myth … for the third time … and, once again, busted it. But, you know, that myth was perfect for Obama:

  • It’s from Europe.
  • It had been tried before, more than once, and shown to fail.
  • It was paired with Hellboy.
  • It involved smoke and mirrors.

I wonder if there are any other myths that would make sense for Obama to want Adam and Jamie to test?

  1. That large unaccountable States run by atheist socialists using redistributive methods of consolidating power and control really killed 250Million people (give or take 50 million unaccounted for peasant farmers) in the last century.

    Never mind, obviously its religious free marketers who want to cut taxes and limit welfare dependence.

    Speaking of dependence, BTW everything the right says about welfare dependence applies to the problem with our allies military dependence on us.

  2. *That he was born in Hawaii
    *That he has a source of masculine hormones
    *That he has ever held a real job
    *That he doesn’t HATE America and all it stands for
    *That he actually took any REAL history classes in college or prep school
    *How he paid for prep school and college, since he was so disadvantaged
    *Why he shouldn’t be impeached for running the country into the ground.

    Just with O’vomit alone Mythbusters could go on for decades.

  3. The definition of insanity jumping the shark is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results. Showing that you’re Obama worshipers doesn’t help either, best show on TV but realizing they’re liberal pukes is making it hard to watch. They were on Joy Blowhards show, wtf? Now they do little PSA s about being “green” too, is nothing safe from this crap?

    How about testing the myth that affirmative action was is a good thing?

  4. Speaking of West Side Story
    I don’t think this raaaaaaaaaaacist song would go over too well these days:

    ANITA
    Puerto Rico . . .
    You ugly island . . .
    Island of tropic diseases.
    Always the hurricanes blowing,
    Always the population growing . . .
    And the money owing,
    And the babies crying,
    And the bullets flying.
    I like the island Manhattan.
    Smoke on your pipe and put that in!

    You could substitute most American cities for “Puerto Rico” nowadays.

    How about the myth that Firefox is racist? Its says Puerto Rico and Obama aren’t words 😀

  5. Mythbusters is some of the lamest TV in an age were just about all TV is lame. Their “tests” prove nothing. They did a show where they claimed to bust the myth that cell phones interfere with the electronics of commercial aircraft. I happen to know a number of airline pilots and they told me it was total bull. Cell phones interfere with the navigation equipment, they ALL said, a couple had even participated in tests showing how it did. For some reason, I believe the airline pilots over those clowns.

  6. * What is the volume of a bucket compared to Obama’s head.

    * How is it possible for the smoke from a crack pipe not enough to set off the White House smoke detector.

    * Why is it that an eight week old baby girl has a higher IQ than the entire Democratic leadership?

  7. Expect that to show up as 500 jobs created by The One on the next unemployment report.

    …and I just lost a lot of respect for the Mythbusters guys. That was some championship a$$-kissing right there.

    I’ll wouldn’t be that harsh on them for that. Even if it is only Teh One, he’s still the freaking president of the United States, who let himself come on your silly cable TV show. The only “celebrity guests” that can even compare to that would be the pope or the queen of England. Way better, if you happen to like something about the guy like these guys apparently do. I don’t know, as I didn’t watch the clip; just watching the commercial for this on Thanksgiving made me facepalm hard enough.

  9. Wow, that show is still on? I gave up on them years ago. They started off with 2 girls. One was a hot blonde who could weld and the other was this average looking redhead feminist. They let the hot blonde who could weld leave and kept the dizty redhead feminist who apparently has the main goal on the show as making guys look stupid. Unfortunately, they have guys that seem to buy in and follow along.

    Total waste of time.

    I’ll watch it again if they somehow bring Scottie back though.

  10. Why is anyone surprised that the Mythbusters are Libs? The show is in SAN FRANCISCO! Even Californians think that place is full of a bunch of weirdo hippies. Although Jamie’s groveling at the end was just beyond pathetic. “The mirrors were distracting”. Seriously?

    I also thought it was totally in character that Obama would want a Myth done again. Considering his love of Socialism I’m betting he still ain’t buying they Mythbuster’s results.

  11. They just proved that a quart of gasoline would do a better job of setting fire to a boat than 500 greasy fingered school kids with mirrors.
    Obviously solar power is a failed technology – drill, baby, drill!
