* Those wacky Palestinians are still trying to appeal to the U.N. for statehood. Now even the French are like, “Cut it out you doofs!” Whether the U.N. sides with the Palestinians or not, this is all likely to end in violence… as does everything in the Middle East. Including the kite festivals.
Anyway, the official U.S. position should be we want fewer Muslim countries. Frankly, they just haven’t been working out well enough to warrant more of them.
* Eric Holder is talking about closing Gitmo — this time for real! It’s totally going to happen; it’s not just talk to rile up the really gullible left-wing base.
Come to think of it, Obama can still run on pretty much all the platforms he ran on in 2008: Close Gitmo. End the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan (and now also Libya). Turn around this horrible economy. End the incompetent, divisive leadership of the current president. Sucks to be the incumbent, huh?
* Have you been wondering where all that stimulus money went that did absolutely nothing to help the economy? OBAMA’S PEOPLE ATED IT! Yes, the Department of Justice spent $16 per muffin at one conference and had many other moron expenses people actually accountable for how they spend money would never have.
Hey, I know! Let’s take more money away from job creators and give it to these people! That’s an awesome idea! I should get a muffin for it!
* So Solyndra executives are going to plead the fifth. Great spending of half a billion on them, Obama! I wonder how much of that money went to muffins.
Of course, that’s not the worst of Obama’s scandals; that would be “Fast and Furious” where the Department of Justice (the expensive muffin eaters) allowed guns to go to Mexican drug cartels. Those guns have now been linked to at least 200 murders.
Now, all we need to do is find out that Solyndra spent all its money on guns for Mexican drug cartels while the Department of Justice watched and did nothing (other than eat muffins). That would combine this all into one super scandal so big even the New York Times would mention it… on page 16.
* It looks like Perry is slipping in the polls as Romney is only three points behind him in South Carolina. Man, I hate Romney. He’ll probably easily win against Obama, but he’s just such a weasely politician… especially on Social Security and entitlements. I only expect “meh” out of him… though “meh” would be a huge improvement from current conditions.
* In other polling news, Palin is polling within five points of Obama. I think Palin is a risky bet and I’m just not sure about her anymore, but man would that be hilarious to have Obama beaten by her. I would probably stop blogging as I’d just be too busy laughing for the next four years. Well, if Obama is so vulnerable anyone can beat him, I say go for it. Let’s have some entertainment.
* Got an e-mail with this subject: “Santorum is an idiot or a liar—doesn’t seem to grasp that the Founding Fathers put the natural born clause into the Constitution for a reason”. Yes the birthers are going after Rick Santorum and demanding he drop out of the presidential race because he said about Obama’s birth certificate, “My understanding is that issue was solved. If there’s evidence to the contrary [showing Obama is not eligible], they should bring it forth.”
Wow, those birthers sure are smart at picking important battles. It really seems like a great idea to spend a lot of time going after a presidential candidate no one is paying attention to. Are birthers part of some high-stakes irrelevancy contest I don’t know about? I assume their biggest competition is Obama himself.
Maybe the $16 bucks per muffin the Justice Dept spent included a tasty crack rock?
I say we lock the birthers and the Paultards in a steel cage and get the WWE to run it as a Pay Per View.
I’ll take Perry’s or Romeny’s meh over Obama’s failure anyday. It would be nice to get Ronaldus Magnus II, bu that would be asking too much.
Paul, Palin, Perry, Pawlenty, pooh. I came over here this morning looking for teh funnies about the turban bomb. (http://www.nydailynews.com/news/world/2011/09/20/2011-09-20_exafghanistan_president_burhanuddin_rabbani_killed_by_turban_bomb.html#ixzz1YW4MVWe6)
Well? I’m still waiting…. wasn’t it Bugs v. Yosemite Sam? Maybe R.R. v. Wile E. Coyote…. help me out, people. We can’t just let this go unexploited.
(yes, yes, I’m sorry that children of God lost their (misguided) lives and I know I shouldn’t make fun, but….)
Eat your P’s, Granny.
Winnie the Pooh is running?
Actually, Holder does have a plan for Gitmo. According to inside Justice Department sources, the Department is going to give the detainees thousands of assault rifles so that the ATF can track them when they release the detainees in Afghanistan.
Does the ATF (BATF? ATFE? who knows?) ever do anything that doesn’t turn to absolute snot? Do they have plaques commemorating Waco, Ruby Ridge, etc.? Is Fast and Furious any worse than sending the National Guard, APC’s (which required road building engineers), helicopters, snipers, SWAT teams, etc. after a man whom the ATF entrapped into the crime of sawing off a shotgun, and who lived with his family in an absolutely defenseless plywood house?
But then again, notice that the method is the same: create an operation that by its very own overkill is designed to frighten the public into greater restraint of liberty.
Don’t blow your top GrannyBoo.
Cat, she can’t help if she lost her head for a minute.
“Guns and Muffins” ?
Was there butter for the $16 muffins?
Because, if there was, then it would be “Guns and Butter and Muffins.”
Which is preferable to just “Guns and Butter” or “Guns and Muffins, No Butter.”
Of course, “No Guns and No Muffins with No Butter” would be the worst case. But how likely is that, really? I mean, come on!
“Whether the U.N. sides with the Palestinians or not, this is all likely to end in violence…”
Was there ever a time when Muslims were involved and there wasn’t violence?
Carolyn – I’m not saying she has to keep it under her hat – she just shouldn’t flip her wig.
Burma, last time I checked it was the BATFE, I say combine it with the DEA, throw in hookers and just call it a great party.
Anyone know where the next Justice Department conference is? I’m going to withhold my judgment until I taste one or two of them muffins. I’m not saying it’s okay for them to spend $16 for a muffin, I’m just saying that it makes me want one really bad.
Moderated! Hahaha. Is muffin a dirty word? That’s awesome and might explain why “muffins” cost $16.
Are the kite festivals available on pay per view? I’d pay good cash to see a kite festival cage match!
“That would combine this all into one super scandal so big even the New York Times would mention it… on page 16.” . . . in an editorial about how the divisive right-wing Tea Bagging terrorists are harping on the scandal in a desperate attempt to shift attention from their own hateful, disastrous, coddle-the-rich and damn-the-poor policies that will kill your grandma and incite race riots if they are allowed to use this alleged “scandal” to take the White House. B@stards!!
Personally, I would like to know what got into Tony Bennett with his ridiculously stupid 9/11 comments. And here all these years I thought when he sang that he “left his heart in San Francisco” that he was just singing a stupid song…who knew he meant it literally.
Believe me you’ve never had a really tasty muffin ’till you have a sixteen dollar muffin, and I otta know, i’ve had many sixteen dollar muffins…Eric Holder, closing Gitmo any day now, Washington DC.
Maybe Tony Bennett and Rosie O’Donnell can get together sometime and die.
The natural born clause is in the 14th ammendment, which was ratified in 1868, a little after the Founding Fathers.
Cat, don’t talk to her that way; she might be the head of a very important organization. You won’t get ahead in the world doing that.
If Palestine gets statehood, are there 58 states then?
I think you’re right Carolyn – if I keep popping off GrannyBoo is going to tell me to blow it out my ear.
CarolynthePregnant – Cat’s world is a feeding bowl, a litter box and a sleeping cushion in his master’s house. There’s no way to get ahead in that world. Besides, cat’s just like the status quo; they lack the ambition of dogs.
Ironic isn’t it? A sixteen dollar whore=cheap. A sixteen dollar muffin=expensive…..Eric Holder, indulging in one but not the other, Washington DC
Hats off to you, Cat!
Jimmy, Jimmy – don’t be jealous. If you lead a virtuous life you too may return as a higher being.
A higher being…
You mean like this one?

You two are the bomb but you’ve gone way over my head here.
You know, I think Fly and Cat are dynomite!
Right back at ya, Carolyn! Let’s hug it out.
Fly, Cat and Prego…ugh…gag…spit…gag…hack…hack…ahh just a big old furry hairball for each of you!
Actually, I am a big Cat Fan. (Heh, I almost wrote “Fat Can.”)
But Fly, not so much. His giant relatives (Crane Flies, aka mosquito hawks, mosquito wolves, mosquito eaters (or skeeter eaters), gallinippers, and gollywhoppers) are over the place this September!! Every time I open the door, bunches of ’em Fly in my house, day or night! Of course, in Minnesota, they are dwarfed by Big Horn Mosquitoes that can drain the aqueous humor from your eyes!
Personally, I’m a big fan of flies.
