* So Perry loves pandering to Hispanics and thinks we’re heartless if we don’t want our tax money going to non-citizen Hispanics, but he apparently hates blacks because of a rock or something. RACIST!!!
Do people take that charge seriously anymore? The left seem so perfunctory in using it that I don’t think they really believe it anymore. Charging racism is almost like an “uh” or “um” in other people’s speech; it’s just something you utter while thinking of something more substantive to say.
But if you really want to see racism, nominate Herman Cain. When it’s a black man opposing the white liberals, it will finally be time for all those racists that live in the heads of leftists to come out and play.
* Perry has further expanded on why he’s for paying for tuition for illegal aliens, wondering how else are they going to get into college. When talking with pro-illegal alien people, it’s like we’re not even arguing within the same universe. Yeah, the point of borders is making sure citizens of other countries get the privilege of going to college. Good job zeroing in on the heart of that issue, Perry.
* Obama thinks we’re soft. Really, the left, who think we’ll all die unless government ensures us jobs, food, education, and health care and protects us from smoking, trans-fats, and incandescent light bulbs, thinks we’ve become soft. How did that happen?
* So those Occupy Wall Street people are still occupying Wall Street to… who knows. Some people think you just go out and wave signs and stuff happens, but you kind of need something coherent to say first. Even then, waving signs and sitting around is the least effective way to induce change.
Know who are changing things, though? The businessmen on Wall Street actually working jobs and such. If the hippies want to change the world, they should start by using some soap.
* Warren Buffet doesn’t endorse Obama’s “Buffet Rule”, seeming to think it will hurt the economy. I guess that makes him one of the bad rich people again. “He’s involved in money-craft! Burn him!”
* Because of the bad economy, cases of people over dosing on cocaine are way down. So there’s another achievement for Obama right alongside making sure child predators are too poor to afford windowless vans.
* So, I wasn’t able to resist getting that Aquaman comic. It seems silly to pay full price for a digital comic — there are no printing and shipping costs associated with it. And I wouldn’t even mind if they put the ads in to allow dropping the price. Still, DC put one of their A-list writers on it — Geoff Johns — and people were raving about it, so I was pretty curious what a really good Aquaman comic looks like. It spent just a little time setting up the villains for the arc, and most of the comic was all about what everyone makes fun of Aquaman for. I actually felt pretty bad for Aquaman when someone asked to his face what it’s like to be nobody’s favorite superhero (not all bloggers are that mean!). Anyway, I recommend the comic for all comic book fans and will definitely snatch up the next issue the day it comes out (if they’re still making it available day and date on the iPad). Hopefully this run will finally get Aquaman the respect he deserves. He started out fighting Nazis, you know.

* Later today (2pm ET), AMC is going to make available six Walking Dead webisodes (the second season doesn’t start until later this month). It will be about how things were in the beginning of the outbreak — something we haven’t gotten to see yet. The webisodes should be available on both the AMC website and Hulu, I believe. I mention this because I’m a Walking Dead fan (and really looking forward to finding out what they’ll be doing in the second season now that I’ve seen all the places the story goes in the comics), and because my little sister did the costume design for these webisodes! Good job, silly sister Sarah!
