Do you feel driving doesn’t cost quite enough? And are you worried that the government doesn’t have enough of your money? Plus, do you think the government isn’t closely monitoring you quite enough? Well, Obama has a great plan for you: Let’s tax people based on how much they drive!

I guess what’s happening here is that the government has been promoting electric cars and are now starting to get worried, because while they do want people to use less gasoline, they still want all the tax revenue they would get from that. So voila! The government will now monitor you’re driving and tax you based on it! So, more taxes plus invasion of privacy — pretty awesome combo. And like when we started the income tax and made it the government’s business to know how much money we earned, many got the idea to then try to control incomes. So what happens when they know how much we drive?

Man, we really lost the plot on this whole freedom idea a while back, but if the idea is to tax things we want there to be less of, here is my idea: Let’s tax coming up with proposals that increase taxes and take away freedom. In fact, if any politician proposes anything like that, let’s confiscate everything he owns. Awesome idea.

Sure didn’t take long for Obama to squander the goodwill from killing bin Laden. I mean, you got the most wanted man in the world, so how do you take that and start to make yourself look like an idiot? Well, let’s have Obama show us how.

So there’s debate about releasing the photos of Osama. I don’t even really care about it. Obama administration could have just said, “We’re not going to release the photos because we don’t feel like it.” and I would have been fine with that. Instead it’s the usual, “If we release the photos, it will make Muslims in the Middle East mad.” Really? There are Muslims in the Middle East who just give us hugs all the time, but if they see a photo of dead Osama they’re suddenly going to become murderous? But they were okay with us killing him — just don’t want to see the photo? I’m sorry, but anyone who would be stirred up to commit murder by an Osama photo are people we should be already hunting down and trying to kill — so stirring them up will just make them easier to find. But it’s hard to believe it will stir them up since so many in the Middle East are just constantly angry all the time at the most moronic things imaginable. When do we just say, “These guys are angry idiots constantly getting enraged by everything, so let’s stop worrying about what will make them angrier lest we catch some of their psychosis trying to think like them.”? If we want to end anger in the Middle East, let’s just send the message that being stupid angry is how you get dead. So everyone who is like, “Me see photo! Me want to murder now!” why don’t you learn to count to ten before you end up like Osama. And the Obama administration: Stop trying to coddle the feelings of people who celebrate a mass murder and instead concentrate on the feeling of your own people.

And then there is the changing story of how the assault went down. Now I, like pretty much every American, don’t really care how it went down as long as we got the end result of taking out Osama. The official report could have been, “Osama begged for mercy while we ripped off his leg and beat him to death with it,” and everyone would be like, “Great job, Obama!” But instead we keep getting this changing story about whether Osama was armed or not and whether he used a human shield — things we don’t even really care about — and now they’re like, “We’re done talking about this.” Hey, Obama, no one cares what the details of what happened in the raid, so just stop looking weasely about it.

So just, a couple days later, we go from Obama’s one flash of competency to looking like this probably all happened in spite of him, because, really, what an idiot. I’m almost apprehensive about how he’s going to turn his Ground Zero appearance into a farce.
