* Obama told a Hispanic audience that “I’ve got another five years coming up.” People think he’s being arrogant about his reelection, but maybe he had been told by a gypsy of when his untimely death would occur and he was referring to that.
The context, though, was him explaining why he hadn’t done all the amnesty pandering he had promised Latinos, so his answer was basically, “I’ve got plenty of time; I’ll get to it later. Why, is this like important to you people?” Hope Latinos weren’t expecting affordable gas either, because that’s another one Obama is totally going to get to in a few more years or so.
* Hamid Karzai has demanded a trial of whoever it is that burned some Korans. Twelve people have been killed in the idiotic riots from the results of this nothing, but let’s totally worry about a couple books. Why did Obama apologize for this? The apology should have been, “I’m sorry your country has so many barbaric, morally twisted individuals who would riot and murder random people over some paper being burned. It feels me with a deep sadness and a desire to just start slapping people in the Middle East and just never ever stop.” Are we ever going to start treating Muslims in the Middle East like fellow human beings and thus have expectations that they act like human beings, or are we going to stick with considering them wild dogs who we have to be careful not to irk because they’re just mindless and violent?
And maybe the Muslims there should consider finding a much more powerful god who isn’t threatened by a little fire.
* Obama is mocking Republicans over the high gas price issue. Yeah, that makes sense.
“Ha. Look at those Republicans all licking their chops ready to make my huge incompetence and complete uselessness an election issue. They’re probably also going to make a big deal out of how I blocked the Keystone pipeline that would have helped with gas prices and created jobs; how silly of them. And I guess next their going to point out how I’m wetting my pants right now; what goofy goof Republicans. Ha. I am laughing.”
But don’t worry, Obama has a comprehensive plan to bring down gas prices. And it will succeed because Obama has a long history of comprehensive plans that totally work and do useful things. And he’s also sent us each our own unicorn. They’re invisible; that’s how you know they’re authentic unicorns.
* Wisdom of the Day from Loren Heal:
Shorter Obama: GOP acts like oil is just waiting underground.
* Paleontologists are using 3D printers to make small robot dinosaurs. While this doesn’t necessarily help make dinosaurs with rocket launchers on them, it certainly doesn’t hurt the cause.
So what would a Paleontologist use small robot dinosaurs for? What a silly question.
“Hamid Karzai has demanded a trial of whoever it is that burned some Korans.”
Demanded? Ha ha ha ha ha…
I’ll know I’VE made it when I get a tweet posted as your Wisdom of the Day. https://twitter.com/#!/JulieRichards7
“So what would a Paleontologist use small robot dinosaurs for?”
Attacking a tiny Tokyo?
Headline in Kos: “RACIST IMAO PUNDIT PLANS TO KILL OBAMA IN 5 YEARS”
The “Five more years” statement was simply code for “Just wait, I’ll do all that unpopular Marxist stuff once my re-election is secured.”
Remember the Tesla, a.ka. the Finnish leg of Obama’s Comprehensive Strategy? For $430 million of tax payer money plus $100k sticker price, you get a vehicle that bricks if left off the charger for a few weeks. Joys abound! The Tesla becomes so bricked it cannot be moved by tow truck or car carrier. Once the owner gets it to the shop, said owner discovers that the $40k battery replacement is not covered under warranty because Tesla considers the bricking the result of owner misuse.
Tesla? Drill? Tesla? Drill? Tesla? Drill? DRILL DAMMIT.
Why are some deaths called “UNtimely” ? Some people’s would be considered about f’ing timely, like Castro, Chavez, Zsa Zsa….and various others.
@Burmashave – Tesla is a Silicon Valley electric car company – Fisker is the Finnish electric car company. Which is funny because if you leave the Tesla unplugged it’s Finnished.
Cat, Burma, please! No need to fight! We gave taxpayers’ money to Fiskers AND Tesla! All part of glorious non-Communist (no, we don’t use word Communist!! Nyet! Nyet!) Obama revolution!
“And he’s also sent us each our own unicorn. They’re invisible; that’s how you know they’re authentic unicorns.”
So is that an invisible unicorn in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?
Aw heck – asking that question got me pregnant in the first place…. unicorns are potent.
Of COURSE Obama has a “Five Year Plan” – he’s a commie!
Carolyn. the chances are about one in four that your baby will inherit your sense of humor.
Oh dear…. not very good odds.
Depends on how you look at it, Carolyn.
Don’t hit me – I’ll call PETA!
Ahhhh, DamnCat, I remember now. Fisker is that scissor company that got $500 million and then said that a facility to produce quality scissors doesn’t exist in the United States. Mebbe he’s right. They do make d*mn fine scissors.
Using a proven solution like drilling for oil and then refining it into gasoline is a silly concept….we should concentrate on finding new fuels like turning pond scum into gasoline….should work as well as spinning straw into gold. IIRC during the last election Obama ridiculed drilling because it would take five years to produce results….if we would have started drilling then we would only have two more years to wait. How long will we have to wait for scientists to figure out how to turn pond scum into fuel?
Is the carbon footprint of a burning Chevy Volt less than the carbon footprint of a reliable gasoline powered auto? How about the carbon footprint of it buring down your garage and house as well? I am not sure I understand this new carbon footprint math.
Introducing the 2012 Chevy Unicorn. “It’s not invisible, it’s stealthy.”
5 more years! Yay! Seaweed Cars or something… But then the Sierra Club will get all up in our face about seaweed and we will have to go to like gravel or dirt…but then farmers will get pissed off…so then it’s like tree leaves that fall off in the fall…but then…well you know the drill…or the lack there of!!! I made a funny!!! Hahahahahahahahah!!!
Little Robot dinasaurs will bite and nip at hot air bafoon liberals and suck in their flatulence and breath out transformed roaring fire eviserating their pitiful mountains of trashy dogma. Heh !
They’ve been saying “It’ll take 10 years to drill our way to energy independence” for 30 years now.
How many years will it take to develop the technology to extract useful energy from algae?
What is oil but algae that’s already been processed naturally and is just waiting to be used?
FrankJ:
One piece of news you missed.
“The number of Americans filing first-time claims for jobless benefits last week held at a four- year low and consumers became more confident, indicating an improving labor market may boost household spending…The number of people on unemployment benefit rolls dropped to the lowest level since August 2008, today’s report also showed.”
Why do you always leave out the good news? One might almost think you are rooting against America, rather than for it.
That is not true, is it FrankJ?

P.S. “The economy has added private sector jobs for 23 straight months, for a total of 3.7 million payroll jobs over that period.”
You know, for a President who you think wants to destroy private sector jobs, Obama is not doing a very good job of it. Is this part of the reason you think he is incompetent — that he is trying to not revive the economy, and failing? Interesting strategy.
Obama’s Job Plan:
1) “Encourage” 1.2 million people/month to quit looking for a job.
2) Wash, rinse, repeat.
3) 0% Unemployment!!11!!1!

I know that this board tends to practice Proverbs 26:4 WRT your comments, but…

Particularly given Bumashave #20, of course the economy is doing well. The numbers look good. How could government numbers possibly lie, especially in a way convenient towards recumbent politicians’ re-election efforts/
cutting the deficit in half. another one of those things he will get around to during his next term.
If we draw Muhammed on a few more Qurans and then burned them, would militant Islam implode with riots that killed themselves?
If we had drilled for oil back when “they” said it would take 10 years to show results, we’d be… oh, I dunno, about to reap the benefits! Do these idiots also think that because it takes 10 minutes to get a heart attack victim to the ER that we should not take him?
Frank, you have to be Monkey Faced Liberal Right? Nobody is that stupid! Well unless they watch network news and read DKOS for their “news”… We have a lot of Monkey Faced Liberals here in Minnesota and I’ve noticed that there are quite a number of Prius’s and such that have the glue marks from a previous bumper sticker… Gee, I wonder what that might have said… I think they have lost all hope and change and now are frowning on their dumb Monkey Faces! Then they went out and tore off their stupid sticker with Barry’s lame logo on it!!! Dumb Monkey Faced Liberals tend to be emotional. Their men cry like 5 year old school girls and stamp their dumb little monkey faced feet when they don’t get their way! A good B’ Slap is usually all it takes to get them back in line, but that is what dumb Monkey Faced Liberal woman are for!
Ussjimmycarter:
You wrote “I think they have lost all hope and change and now are frowning on their dumb Monkey Faces!”
Perhaps, but Obama is still leading by 10 points in the state, as much as he won by in 2008.

It seems monkeyfacedliberals and other people in MN also realize it is Morning in America — just like me!
And really? I am “emotional,” and “cry like 5 year old girls”? That is you comeback? You can do better than that.
Such insults are almost as pathetic as the Republican presidential primary. Almost.

USSJC: Sometimes I’m inclined to agree with you, but then I say to myself, “Self, does MFL really sound like Frank J.?” Then, I respond to myself (my world is very small), “Self, if that were Frank J. in secret disguise, he wouldn’t be able to resist the odd reference to moon nuking and junk musketing. And he’d refer to himself as the Dumbest Monkey Faced Liberal in the entire history of Dumb Monkey Faced Liberals.” Because that is how Frank J. is.
It’s pretty clear by now that Monkey Faced Liberal is quite the admirer of Frank J.
My unicorn is invisible? Well, that changes everything! Obama kept his promise! Four more years!
A unicorn in every pot! A chicken in every garage!
