On Face the Nation, after playing a clip of President Obama bragging about his accomplishments, Bob Schieffer actually literally, actually, truly laughed out loud.
Instead of the presidency, maybe Obama should run for host of The Daily Show.

It’s a New Record!
A Los Angeles photographer filed a police report accusing Justin Bieber of assaulting him.
Jimmy Carter being attacked by a rabbit – no longer the wimpiest thing ever.

Feds Bust on Cute Coffee Girls – 10 More Possible Targets
[High Praise! to Seanmahair]
They’re from the government, and they’re here to help you.
The EEOC is investigating Marylou’s, a Massachusetts coffee house chain, for hiring only cute young ladies as waitresses and dressing them up in tight pink halter tops.
Nobody complained, you understand, it’s just that some jack-booted EEOC thug saw one of their commercials featuring the aforementioned attractive waitresses, and decided that being both perky and female on film was a crime that needed snooping into.
So who’s next on the list?
I speculate thusly:
______________

1) Wal-Mart – Their logo features a yellow smiley face. Where are the red, white, black, and brown smiley faces?
2) Chippendale’s has yet to hire a dancer in a wheelchair.
3) The Mafia routinely file-13’s applications from anyone with blond hair, an unbroken nose, and a last name that doesn’t end with a vowel.
4) Ever notice that reality-TV talent shows only let you be “the cranky judge” if you’ve got a British accent?
5) I dare you to list all the armless professional soccer players. You’d think they’d be scooping them up by the bushel.
6) “The View” hasn’t offered Justin Bieber a job yet, and he’s 10 times the woman Joy Behar is.
7) Peter Dinklage? The Lakers won’t touch him, even though he’s impossible to guard. WHOOP! Right between your legs!
8) Speaking of basketball, LeBron still hasn’t heard back on that jockey gig. Is it because he’s black?
9) Remember when Bill Clinton went 8 years without hiring a single skinny intern? Not a peep from his EEOC.
10) I also heard about a cheese shop once that didn’t actually have any cheese, but I think that was in England, so having a bouzouki player apparently counted toward that hiring quota. Odd folk, the English.

Of course, at IMAO, we have a strict “No Irish” policy, but that’s not discrimination, that’s just plain common sense.
Wisdom of the Day: Goodbye, Detroit
From Fred Thompson:
Population plummeting, Detroit to turn off half of streetlights to save money. Last one out of Detroit, please get the rest of ’em.
Nuke the News: Barack Cheney
* Obama won’t waterboard people. He’ll just put them on kill lists. Isn’t this actually very reassuring? Despite all his unicorns and rainbow rhetoric, Obama is apparently very ruthless on the military side with his drone strikes where he doesn’t really care about collateral damage (any male who is military-aged is assumed to be a combatant unless proven otherwise) and his keeping rendition. He’s like Cheney… if Cheney were more effete and petulant. Still, some Cheney is better than no Cheney.
* Jay Carney tried to explain what’s the difference between what Bain Capital did and what Obama did with Solyndra. Of course, the difference is that with Obama’s green investment, he’s just risking our money, not his own, so he doesn’t care that much about making sure they’re good investments. But Carney gave the best answer he could: He stammered incomprehensibly for a minute. In fact, incomprehensible stammering is probably the best explanation for all of Obama’s policies. Maybe he can even make it a slogan.
“Obama 2012: Because [unintelligible]”
* Romney has now officially cinched the GOP nomination. So if you were one of those silly people still holding out hope for someone else, you can stop now. But it could be worse. I mean, he’s no McCain. Unlike him, Romney seems to really want to be president, so we can expect some fight out of him. And if he fails to defeat Obama, we shall banish him from this land to never be seen again.
* You know Robert Mugabe, murderous dictator? The U.N. has released a statement about him: He’s a leader for tourism!
Ah, the U.N. is so useful and totally not an affront to human decency.
That was sarcasm.
But think of it this way: The more time murderous dictatorships spend working on U.N. silliness, the less people they’re murdering.
The U.N.: We keep murderous dictators busy with useless crap.
* According to a Gallup poll, U.S. adults estimate that about 25% of the population is gay. The actual number is probably around 3%, so why do people think the numbers are so high? Is thinking everyone around you it totally gay a tolerance thing or the opposite? I blame the influence of Obama. We really need to toughen up as a country, because apparently we’re looking pretty gay.
Not that there’s anything wrong with that!
* There is now a Lunar X prize for landing an unmanned vehicle on the moon. There are also bonus prizes for doing things such as photographing the original Apollo landing sites. I don’t know what kind of bonus you get for exploding a nuke on the moon such that it’s visible from earth, but I’m looking into it and will soon start talking to investors.
Random Thoughts: Just Like Hitler
As the number of comparisons to Hitler increase, probability of someone bringing up Godwin’s Law approaches 1.
“If you’re just going to bring up ‘Nazis’ and ‘Hitler’ in every argument, I’m not even going to take you seriously.” -Adolph Hitler
I’m some sort of smart genius.
If I had billions in Facebook stock, I’d be so sad right now.
MILITARY: “Drones took out Megan Fox, Kate Upton, and Christina Hendricks.”
OBAMA: “That was not my kill list!”
Mitt Romney really wants to be president. I really want Obama not to be president. Seems like we can form an alliance.
Well, honestly, I’ll probably sell more copies of my book if Obama is reelected. It won’t be horrible for me either way.
Are the Polish going to apologize to Obama for murdering people in their death camps?
I’m going to act like a champion of the common man until my membership in the elite is approved.
Did you know that RINOs get invited to cocktail parties? And the drinks there are FREE!
