In my new New York Post column, I talk about how on spending, our country is a car speeding towards a cliff. That gives us two options: The boring one and the Evel Knievel one.
I know it’s a little scary, and some of you recall that your mother warned you not to jump off cliffs just because other kids were doing it. But what if one of the people urging you to go over a cliff is Nobel Prize-winning economist Paul Krugman? Then it’s probably worth ignoring your mother and trying.
Read. Laugh. Share. Bathe.
* We thought Obama eating a dog was bad, but then look what Romney did: he said something insulting about a cookie. On the ridiculous outrage scale from 0 to “Ate a Dog”, it ranks at OBAMA ATE A DOG!!!
* Obama is a man of the people, and for $1000 you can shake his hand. For $2000, he won’t eat your dog.
* There’s also a new fundraiser where you get to meet Obama and George Clooney at George Clooney’s house. Lassie was also going to be there, but, well, you know.
OBAMA ATE LASSIE BECAUSE OBAMA EATS DOGS!!!
* Some are wondering whether Obama actually did eat dog because dog meat is hard to find in Indonesia. Of course, Obama’s step dad sought out those meats including grasshopper and snake so that he and Obama could absorb their powers. Which leads to the obvious question: Did it work? Did Obama get snake powers? He certainly didn’t get loyalty powers from eating a dog.
* Reid is constantly trying to set the record for dumbest thing said in the Capitol… even though he’s always just trying to top the record he set previously. For this entry, he rambled on about how much old people love junk mail. When are we finally going to put him in a home? He just seems so lost and confused by everything all the time. He could accidentally do something crazy like EAT A DOG.
* Michelle Bachmann used the phrase “tar baby” and some people think that’s racist. I thought we went over this before when Tony Snow use the term: It’s not racist and you’re an idiot.
I keep wondering if people are going to call this Obama eats a dog stuff racist. Eating a dog is not a black stereotype, though; that’s just an Obama thing. Because he’s weird.
* People are going to receive unemployment while working. Here’s an idea: Why don’t you just not take away the tax money for that in the first place. Same effect, but with less costly bureaucracy in between.
I don’t know how to relate this one to Obama eating a dog.
* Even Senator McCain is making fun of Obama eating a dog. I would have thought this would be the sort of thing he would have called off limits in his 2008 campaign, but I guess one just can’t help but make fun of it. THE DUDE ATE A DOG!!!11!!elventy!1!!!
Even Ron Paul (to the best of our knowledge) never ate a dog!
In Islam, dogs are unclean. I don’t think that it is possible that dog meat could be halal. Ditto snake. Not sure about grasshoppers, but I know they can’t be kosher and halal practices are similar to and arguably imitative of kosher.
Mr. Obama presumably knows this, Mr. Ayers perhaps did not. Odd episode, but the story seems to have legs. At least four of them.
Years later Obama’s stepfather, Lolo Soetoro, was asked about feeding young Barack dog meat, snake, and grasshoppers:
“He’d eat anything. Anything! I just say ‘Here, Barack, eat this.’ and he would. Sometimes he’d object and I’d just say ‘This is traditional tribal food. It is an insult to my people to refuse. Are you some kind of racist?’ and he’d eat it. Even bugs! Hee, hee…after all these years it still makes me laugh!”
My question is, did Barack ever get that tiger meat that Lolo promised him?
If he did, was it real tiger, or just a housecat that Lolo SAID was tiger?
When I was in the Philippines years ago, I refused to eat dog. But I did eat a lot of stuff that I couldn’t identify.
Woof.
I think when you eat something you don’t gain all their powers but just some random power.
From snakes Obama got epic Garden of Eden level lying skills.
From dogs he got the power to loaf around and do nothing all day, Oh and he also got his taste in women.
Want to have fun at the George Clooney Obama fundraiser? Stand at the top of the stairs, yell “Hey, you overrated fathead!” and watch both Clooney and Barack turn around at the same time.
I’m convinced that Obama did in fact gain dog powers from eating dog.
Otherwise, how do you explain:
Dogs = Don’t understand why they shouldn’t put their dirty feet all over the living room furniture
Obama = Can’t seem to understand he shouldn’t be putting his stinking feet up on the Oval Office furniture
Dogs = Crap all over the carpet
Obama = Craps all over the Constitution
Dogs = Get really irritated when you disturb them while they’re eating
Obama = Gets really irritated if you don’t let him finish his waffle
Uncanny, isn’t it?
Here’s an idea: Why don’t you just not take away the tax money for that in the first place. Same effect, but with less costly bureaucracy in between.
I don’t know how to relate this one to Obama eating a dog.
With less bureaucracy, average Americans can afford more dogmeat.
One power he absorbed: Can sniff your butt and then lay down and lick himself. Pretty darn useful if not the only useful power a Democrat can hope to obtain. It’s what Hope’n’Change is all about.
“Some are wondering whether Obama actually did eat dog because dog meat is hard to find in Indonesia.”
Yeah, well it’s also hard to find friends who can say they bombed the Pentagon, but he was able to find that too.
