Nuke the News: One Last Stab at the Buffett Rule

* It seems like the Buffett Rule is about dead as it has no chance of passing in Congress and even liberal pundits are starting to call it a gimmick. I never think I properly ranted about how absolutely stupid a waste of time the idea was, though, so I’m going to try now. Here is my Buffett Rule rant directed at President Obama:

You pompous, useless idiot, why are you wasting all you time promoting a completely pointless tax program that doesn’t absolutely nothing to help against the deficit? Do you see the unemployment? The gas prices? Does any of that register in your empty little head? Or does it just go in one dumbo ear and out the other? But that’s not what the Buffett Rule is about; actually doing anything even slightly useful is far beyond your wildest dreams. This is just about “fairness”. Because when people don’t have a job and can’t afford basic necessities, fairness is what we’re all most worried about. “Don’t worry, honey, we’ll feed our family on fairness.” “We don’t have to worry about retirement; we have a 401k filled with fairness.” You want to know what’s fair? You and all the whiny useless twits who think the Buffett Rule is awesome all living penniless on the streets scrounging through trashcans for scraps of food while I laugh maniacally at your sad little faces. Fairness is all you idiots getting out of the way of useful people like us and you’re opinions never having any affect on us ever again. So you better thank God every day life isn’t fair.

Eh. Don’t think I quite nailed it. All this time Obama wasted on the Buffett Rule is so moronic, it’s hard to really grasp.

* So the Secret Service is in the midst of a prostitution scandal. And I don’t if I buy their excuse: “Those prostitutes were going to have sex with the president, so we did our duty and threw ourselves in front of them!”

* I would almost think its a parody, but here apparently is the English website for North Korea. Read about how awesome North Korea is and how it’s great for both tourism and business (full diplomatic relations with most EU members!). No wonder they could build a rocket that flew a whole minute!

I understand them peddling this stuff to their isolated citizens, but who do they expect in America to be dumb enough to read their website and think they’re awesome? Outside of a college campus, I mean.

* Wisdom of the Day from David Burge:

The “War on Women” meme serves the same purpose as Axelrod’s combover, and is equally successful.

  1. “So the Secret Service is in the midst of a prostitution scandal. And I don’t if I buy their excuse: ‘Those prostitutes were going to have sex with the president, so we did our duty and threw ourselves in front of them!'”

    So, when will each of them be getting their own television talk shows?

  2. “You and all the whiny useless twits who think the Buffet Rule is awesome all living penniless on the streets scrounging through trashcans for scraps of food while I laugh manically at your sad little faces.”

    That’s close to nailing it, Frank. Change “manically” to “maniacally” and continue.

  3. I…ah…um…inherited this Secret Service from…eh…er…the Bush administration…and therefore the incident in…um…eh…Columbia…is Bush’s Fault™….BO, always taking responsibility, Washington DC.

  4. If these agents get fired from the Secret Service perhaps they can be reassigned to the General Services Administration where they should fit right in. After all…’It ain’t a crime to party on the public’s dime!’

  5. Mr. President, since you’ve decided to wait for the investigation instead of jumping to conclusions, can we assume that none of the alleged Johns or prostitutes look like they could be your son or daughter?

  6. Hey, the rant on the Buffett Rule was actually pretty good! If you take suggestions from the peanut gallery, dunce and imbecile describe the subject as well – I’ve always been partial to classic cartoon insults.
