* So the unions keep trying to prove they’re not irrelevant in Wisconsin. They think everyone is still out there using their rotary phones, reading their daily newspapers, and fearing the force that are unions, but I kinda think times have changed a bit. Still, the unions put $30 million into trying to recall five Republicans in the Wisconsin state senate as they only needed three to change the balance of power there. And they successfully replaced two — at $15 million per. For the state senate. And now some recall elections for Democrat senators are coming up.
Yes, we could laugh at the unions and their irrelevancy… so let’s do that.
BWA HA HA HA HA HA!
You know, that $30 million was the union members’ dues. If they all wanted cheaper health care or something, couldn’t that have gone towards it? Yeah, I know, flushing money down the toilet is a perfectly legitimate use of union money with a long history, but I’m just suggesting they should consider a new paradigm. But what do I know; I’m not an irrelevancy from yesteryear.
* For those confused about Wisconsin, new MSNBC anchor Al Sharpton explains:
You know, we make fun of Obama’s ability to read a teleprompter, but it’s not as easy as it looks.
* So Obama actually said in his speech the other day, “Not much further we can cut.”
"I'm mainly muscle!"
Yes, when we look at that giant, bloated government that spends trillions more than we take in, the first thing we always think is, “Wow, is that streamlined.” So if you had any illusions the downgrade would cause Obama to finally wake up and take on the out of control spending, just put that with Obama’s promises of unicorns.
* Don’t worry, though: Cuts are on the way! That’s why we’re forming a super committee! And the Democrats have announced that their appointing to it the partisan, extreme left-wing dimwits John Kerry and Patty Murray. So yay! Nothing will significant will happen cuts wise! Oh, the Democrats are also appointing Max Baucus who is from a red state and might be movable. So the strategy will be to give Kerry and Murray some tinfoil and string to play with while we try to convince Baucus to do what’s needed to actually save the Republic.
Remind me why we set up a system of government that gave these idiots any power in the first place?
* For the first time ever, most Americans don’t think their own representative deserves to be reelected. This is great news, because now maybe we can pitch to everyone some sort of “dump all the bums” measure where we just kick everyone out of Congress and start over. I know there might be a person or two we like in Congress, but if we could just ever actually get an opportunity to throw everyone out, it’s too awesome a deal to pass up. I say we amend the Constitution to allow a vote every couple years or so to kick everyone out of Congress. I know, then some of you are thinking, “Won’t angry voters just toss everyone every two years?” Maybe, but I’m not seeing the downside.
* There’s been a lot of talk about the Bachman Newsweek cover:
But did I warn you that Bachmann has crazy eyes? I did! And you just know left-wing hacks were going to make an issue of it. Just think of how devastating this would be if it appeared not just on a weekly news magazine but in a media people actually paid attention to.
You know what Newsweek should do? Have a whole issue on the importance of unions — really just wallow in irrelevancy.
* Yesterday, Apple was briefly valued higher than Exxon, the U.S.’s biggest company. Does that mean instead of always fretting over “Big Oil”, we’ll soon hear whining over “Big Shiny, Rounded-Edge Consumer Devices”? For some reason, I don’t think the liberal status seekers will immediately start shouting “No war for tablet computers!” They’ll be more like, “Well, how big a war, and if we win, how many new features will this tablet have? …Really? Twice the resolution! Kill those for’ners!”
* Wisdom of the Day: “Gentlemen, we of the Home team put a good scare into Away! They will remember this at their championship parade next week!” –Josh Trevino on the unions’ performance in Wisconsin.
There are many crackpots and charlatans in this country. There are Ron Paul supporters who think the Southern rebels were totally justified in their actions. There is Brett Favre and people who like Brett Favre. There are people who watch English soccer. There are agricultural lobbyists for ConAgra, Monsanto, and the like. There are even people who think the Constitution is inferior to the Articles of Confederation.
None of these crackpots, charlatans, and Ronulans are as good as liberals from magazines like Newsweek, however, at framing a debate in such a way so that it is impossible to argue with them.
Frank, that was 5+ stars. Now, I’ve got to get to work…
Now, let us laugh at Al Sharpton:
BWA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA!
This is so much better than packing.
Should be a huge illustration of how wasteful democrats and union leadership are with money. Time to separate the fools from our money.
I got a letter from my SECDEF Leon Panetta to all us service members about the threat of automatic, across-the-board cuts to defense.
He does know that Obama the Incompetent is his commander-in-cheif, right? How can he expect anything but unpalatable, misguided policy before 2013?
I hope our enemies all have AppleCare.
Al! Stop drinkin’ that malt liquor and smokin’ them blunts before the show! How many times we gotta tell ya?…the producers, MSNBC
Packing? Now where you goin’, Carolyn? Now get back in here and write some lyrics! Do it for the babybyby.
(I’m cleaning out a 40-year-old shed wearing a mask. Whoa… Break time!)
Between Al the Liar and Barney Frank farting live on the Maddow show I can left wing TV is “progessing”
on.
Marco, you are on to something. The DUmmies are declaring Wisconsin a victory. Obama and Unions !!111!!eleventy eleventy
So the riots in London have gone on for what 4you nights now? I wonder how much shopkeepers would pay for a Mossberg 500, you know if it wasn’t illegal.
oh man, Al reminded me of Mush Mouth from the Fat Albert cartoons – hard to make coherent sentences when you know its all crap
Michele Bachmann gave an interview to Newsweek? On what planet does this make sense?
“I know! Since Couric gave Sarah Palin
the kiss of deatha fair shake, I’ll give my time to uber-left Newsweek to make them relevant and help me shine!”It’s a rare gift: the judgment to watch a sheep be led to the slaughter and then cut in line to be next.
Jimmy – I’m shipping up to Boston (woah oh oh) …. I’m shipping up to Boston (woooooooooooooooah oh!)
I might be offline for a couple days. If so, I promise to return with my musical musings ASAP!
You lost your wooden leg?
al sharptoon, the black jojo biden.
I am no ronulan, but the Articles of Confederation as written by the southern states were vastly superior to the constitution ratified in 1789. The original article of confederation did not limit central authority and therefore would not work for the citizens of most states. The current constitution is good, but as we have seen by the actions of the marxists, it is easily ignored and open to the whim of cowards. The Articles of Confederation preserved states rights and made absolute central authority impossible.
I really hope a real GOP candidate steps up soon. Cause what we have now is a pool of pathetic !@#$%^&. Bachmann is the closest to an actual conservative in the field, but she has those KAHAHraaazy eyes!
Plentyobailouts…don’t make us come down there and kick your ass a second time! I am personally willing to take on the roll of William T. Sherman and burn you guys to the ground. Only, I will take all your good looking women (the south is loaded with them) and we shall ship them north, and then we shall load up all the nasty NOW Hags and butch lesbians here in Minneapolis and other northern cities and we shall ship them south and there you will be!!! That will teach you to keep your yap shut next time!!!
You know, ussjimmyc, sometimes I really don’t know how you feel about things. I’m confused, and I wish you’d make yourself more clear. Try communicating like our friend Al Sharpton. He really knows how to communicate a point.
What? The point on his head. Or is that a pin?
Yeah, ussjc, tell us how you REALLY feel!
Have a great move, Carolyn.
The eyes! The eyes! It’s like they put Nancy Pelosi’s eyes on the head of a human female.
Okay maybe we were a little hard on Al earlier. We now believe Cenk Uygur f**ked with the teleprompter on his last day…………the producers, MSNBC.
CarolynThePregnant…watch it or I will start praying for quads! “The prayers of a righteous man availeth much” sayeth the Lord!” Quints? Mmmmmmm!!! Muwhahahahahah!!!!
USSJC, I am actually out west. We have a mix of conservative babes and marxists corn feds. Why doesn’t the University of Wyoming have real grass in the football stadium? The Colorado cheerleaders eat it. But you are sure welcome to keep your leftists, homsexual females, rosie, rosanne, and alfrenkenstein. We are perfectly content with Michelle Malkin, Heather Locklear, and Linda Hamilton.
Rebuttal in the best Norweigian accent: Yah sure yah, ya betcha, dat constitution dere is purty darned good! dontcha know. Yah we shud keep it, yah!
Now pass the lutefisk!
I am the first to admit that my figure is not perfect. I never met a pork product I didn’t like; I am a founding member of the Sisterhood Of Bacon-Eating B!tches; and when I sunbathe at the beach, members of Greenpeace keep trying to drag me “back” into the ocean. But all I could think when I saw that picture of MM was, “Dude! Eat a vegetable!”
Yea, but we also produce babes like Michelle Bachmann and lots and lots of nordic blonds with blue eyes here in Minnesota! There are also numerous (what is that a man or a woman) types downtown… What is it with that look?
Finally there is something in the news to celebrate. 😀
@CrabbyOldBat If thats the case you should probably not go to the beach in Japan.
Yeah, sure, Crabby. I bet you’re about 5’6″ and a svelt 120 lbs. That’s what my mind’s eye is seein’. But then, I’ve got my head in a bucket of ale.
Eloquence. “MSNBC: Lean Forward and laugh your a** off.”
“But resist, we much we must and we will much about that be committed.”
