* Joe Kennedy III is going to run for Barney Frank’s seat. I think his slogan is going to be: “I’m a Kennedy; I’m entitled to this.”
Anyone who willingly elects a Kennedy shouldn’t show his face among fellow Americans. The whole point of a democracy is that we wouldn’t be forced to be ruled by a line of incompetent nitwits like in a monarchy, but for some reason some people willingly subjugate themselves to this. That’s un-American. When Big Fat Teddy K was chucked in the sea after the Navy SEALs broke into his compound and took him out, that should have been the end of that.
* Decrepit old white man questions Marco Rubio’s authenticity as a Latino. Here’s that patronizing racism I was talking about that’s so prevalent these days and not enough people are speaking out against it. You have Harry Reid, old racist loser, thinking he can characterize other people based on their skin color since supposedly he’s the caring liberal and that’s his privilege. People should be yelling him, “Why don’t you and your racist friends get out of our face before we break your hip, grandpa!” But some people cheer this on. And that’s why racism is still a problem.
* Canada is ending gun registration. Apparently it cost billions of dollars and never once helped catch a criminal — useless and expensive, the perfect left-wing program.
Views on guns have moved in one direction in America in the past fifty years — towards a stronger belief in freedom — and it’s nice to see that maybe that’s finally starting to move to other countries to. Too much of the world is backwards on this issue.
* According to Nancy Pelosi, actual rights like freedom of religion are less than made up rights like the right to have someone else paying for your contraception.
A lot of people think this whole thing is a distraction from the larger issue of the debt, economy, and jobs, but you have to remember there is no bigger issue in America than freedom of religion… at least there shouldn’t be. If we don’t have that, the rest is worthless. People didn’t come over on the Mayflower because they were escaping debt.
That’s probably how the first colony on Mars will be founded, though.
* Israel says the nuclear sanctions against Iran aren’t working. Are they getting ready to attack? Maybe. If I were them, I would totally bomb all the countries around me all the time. They all hate Israel so much already, it won’t make a noticeable difference in anyone’s attitude about them. That is one way we could get a much more modern, peaceful Middle East — have the whole area be conquered by and run by Israel.
* Wisdom of the Day from Ken Jennings:
“Bros before hoes.” –the dictionary
* Apparently there is 50 square miles of Idaho where I can commit felonies unpunished. Good to know. Hope there are things to burn there. My favorite felony is arson. What felony would you commit?
So where is this 50 square mile part of Idaho? I have friends and family up there!
Canada is ending gun registration. Apparently it cost billions of dollars and never once helped catch a criminal — useless and expensive, the perfect left-wing program.
Useless, expensive, and infringing on the freedom of law-abiding citizens. THAT’s the perfect left-wing program (I’ve never so much as fired an actual fire-arm and I think that).
“Joe Kennedy III is going to run for Barney Frank’s seat. I think his slogan is going to be: “I’m a Kennedy; I’m entitled to this.””
That’s probably better than: “Vote for me in 2012 or I’ll take you for a ride in my car.”
That bit about Israel conquering the middle east, Klavan on the culture had a video on that… excellent idea!
Ron Paul wakes in the dark of night, drenched in sweat, muttering, “The Joooos have all theOil!!!!11!!!eleventy!!!”
My felony of choice would be to slay the first born male child in every Kennedy household……..naw, too Jewish!
What…..does this mean Marco Rubio isn’t an Italian?
I were you, Frank, that would be the last place I’d want to commit a felony. If you can burn down a guy’s barn with impunity then that guy can stomp you to a bloody pulp with impunity.
You’re thinking of Marco Polio.
Why do we still suffer from kennedies?
Because the sheeple of massachewits don’t have two brain cells between them?
Because the sheeple of massachewitsa fooled so readily?
Because bwarney fwank was not stupid enough?
“What felony would you commit?”
voting for sasquatch’s husband.
Joy riding the police chiefs Lamborghini.
Eating meat wrapped in bacon with white wine.
What felony would I commit? Manufacturing incandescent lightbulbs and 3 gallon toilets. I’d make a killing selling stuff people actually want to buy.
What felony would I commit?
– Not pay more than 10% of my income in taxes.
– Smoke in a restaurant.
– Send my kid to school with a baloney sammich, corn chips, and a brownie for lunch.
– Tell the truth about Obambi and his administration.
– Not pay for a strange woman’s contraception.
– Succeed on my own without government programs or racial quotas.
– Pray in public.
Joe 3 is clearly under-qualified compared to other Kennedy resumes:
* Committed Murder (2 Kennedy’s: 15-year old Martha Moxley & Joanne Kopechne)*
* Arrested for possession of pot (at least 3 Kennedy’s)
* Arrested for possession of cocaine (at least 2 Kennedy’s)
* Arrested for possession of heroin (at least 2 Kennedy’s
* Arrested for possession of narcotics
* Arrested/Apprehended for DUI (a rite of passage)
* Rape (one prosecution, many allegations)
* Repeated attempts to flee with headlights off at night (Teddy had practice for his launch off the bridge)
* Maintained relationships with organized crime
* Ordered a lobotomy for a daughter
* Had an affair with a 14-year old babysitter
* Bootlegged alcohol on a massive scale
*It’s definitely murder when you leave a woman breathing trapped air in a vehicle while walking 2 miles back to the party.
Andrew Klavan’s solution for peace in the Middle East:
Unfortunately Canada is not ending gun registration, they are only ending “long gun” registration. You still have to have a firearms acquisition license to purchase or own a gun, you still have to register all handguns, and there is still an enormous list of prohibited firearms. A step in the right direction but don’t make the mistake of thinking that somehow Canada has become a free country.
Any chance we could talk the Democrats into having their convention in Idaho….?
Kennedys are like warts. Science cannot explain their existence, and just when you think you’ve eradicated one, more pop up…
@ cautiously pessimistic #11 That comment made my day. If you did that I would no longer need the stock pile of incandescents in my garage.
What felony would I commit? Sorry, but if the feds are monitoring these sites already I’ll be arrested in no time flat for answering this honestly.
#19 @Carolyn – If the progressives have their way, you’ve already committed a felony by not taking advantage of the “free” contraceptive devices that the gubmint gives you! Racist!!!
Burmashave –
You can add suspended from Harvard for cheating twice (Teddy) to your list.
@Iowa Jim: Duly noted. The prob is keeping track of them all. Years back, some magazine published the “Match the Kennedy with the Crime” game. It was a hoot. I wish I could find it.
FormerHostage beat me to it – definitely, I would not pay as much in taxes as the gubmint currently demands. In fact, I would withhold all tax payments unless and until the statists stopped subsidizing Planned Parenthood, abortion and all forms of contraception altogether. Religious freedom! Why should I be forced to subsidize behavior my religious beliefs condemn?
any felony? i’m gonna be RICH……
So I read the entire 23 page paper about the Idaho “law-free zone”. It is a very well written paper and an easily understandable read, even for someone like myself who despises “lawyer language”. Long story short, if you want to commit crimes, do it in the part of Yellowstone that is in Idaho, but make sure the crimes require a trial by jury, and don’t bring in anyone else on your plan or you’ll get hit with conspiracy charges.
And in the end, I’m sure the courts would ignore the constitution in order to prosecute you, so you’d just contribute to the further eroding of the constitution from its original intent. Thanks a lot, jerkface!
The AFL-CIO endorsed Joe Not-Dead-Kennedy before he even announced he was running, it’s good to see they have such high standards.
His name is Kennedy, what else did they need to know?
Young Joe actually said this:
wow…just wow
His price tag, so they know how much to raise compulsory union dues.
He’s going to call it the “Mary Jo Memorial Mortgage Act.”
Good one, Crabby!
I can’t decide. I’d either counterfeit $2 bills just to screw with people who don’t know there are $2 bills or I’d steal a Dodge Challenger and drive it and myself into a fiery death against a roadblock.
#14 – hadsil,
Good video!
That was sort of the premise behind the movie Americathon.
As I recall, the Israelis and the Arabs formed a nation called the Hebrab Republic and kept the 70’s oil embargo in place forever, which led to President Carter and several of his “snottier” cabinet members being lynched by a angry mob, and brought America to her knees.
The movie sucked, but I got a laugh out of the concept of what the Israelis and the Arabs could accomplish together.
How could anyone question whether or not Marco Rubio is Latino? HELLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO: MarcO RubiO. They both end in “o”, like all things in the Spanisho languageo.
What felony would I commit? I’d set off depth charges up and down California’s border with OR, AZ, and NV and finally send that worthless hunk of dirt into the Pacific. Buy up land in NV now!

You wrote “The whole point of a democracy is that we wouldn’t be forced to be ruled by a line of incompetent nitwits like in a monarchy, but for some reason some people willingly subjugate themselves to this.”
Question — how many times did you vote for George W. Bush again?
Monkey Faced Liberal
P.S. If you don’t like Santorum and Romney, have you thought about Virgil Goode of the Constitution Party? He says he will “save America.” Since you do not seem to like or be proud of America right now, and seem to think it needs saving, maybe he might be the type of candidate you can support?
There is a 50 sq mile patch of Idaho where felonies can go unpunished. We should build a tall fence around it, intern thousands of hippies there and call it Occupia.
And then release hungry, rabid police dogs.
” Joe Kennedy III is going to run for Barney Frank’s seat. I think his slogan is going to be: “I’m a Kennedy; I’m entitled to this.””
A better slogan might be, “You’ve been screwed by Barney for years, it’s my turn. After all I’m a Kennedy and I’m an expert.”
I didn’t know there were that many Kennedy’s (Kennedi?) left. They all tend to die doing something stupid.
I can’t get over the hysteria with this birth control/healthcare issue. People have lost their darn minds. What I especially love is how women are like, “We are woman, hear us roar! We are strong! Blah blah blah!” and then are like, “But pay for our stuff even if you believe it’s a mortal sin because we can’t be adults and make choices for ourselves.”
Frank J I thought of you when I read about this Ipad/iphone app that tells pro American values children stories over at verum serum.

“Kennedy’s is running for Barney Frank’s seat?” Lots of Kennedy’s have run for lots of seats, and lots of guys have run for Barney’s seat, but still, this is an entirely new situation.
“Kennedy looking at Barney Frank’s. seat, hoping to fill it.”
Will he also get around to questioning Obama’s authenticity as a black American. No, I’m not on that birther thing; I mean black culture has a strong cultural memory of having been slaves. Obama’s personal heritage seems to have less in common with the slaves than with the slavers. I’m sure Ried will be making the argument any day now….
PS – Comment 39: That‘s a keeper.
I like the idea if filling that 50sqr miles with fenced in hippies, just think we can give tours and allow hunting. Instead of going to Africa to go on safari, you’d only have to go to Idaho. There would have to be a minimum caliber requirement, I’m thinking nothing.g smaller than a .577.

Klavan on the Culture: Night of the Living Government
“I’m a Kennedy; I’m entitled to this.” Damn, that’s pretty darn close to “Did I mention my last name is Kennedy?” where pretty much the same point is made … http://bit.ly/qVdDUt
Great minds …
Examine anything that degrades America today, that drags our society and our nation down into the gutter and hastens our destruction and it’s root cause can be traced directly back to an idea advanced by one Kennedy or an other. If there were ever a crew that would have left the world better if they had never lived it is them. May every one of them join Swimmer Ted in the deepest regions of Hell.
Joe Kennedy III!?! No way he can fill Barney’s shoes.
WE WANT STRAUSS-KAHN!!! Now that boy knows how to party.
