Why Obama Celebrates Christmas

[High Praise! to After Math]

For Obama, it’s all about the taxes.

Christmas and the Internet

[High Praise! to Legal Insurrection]

Christmas Day is when conservative Jewish bloggers guard the internet so the rest of you can relax, and do whatever else it is you do.

Figurative bacon to our Jewish friends for having our backs last week.

Link of the Day: Satire – If Obama Were Jesus

[High Praise! to The People’s Cube]

If Obama were Jesus: a Christmas list

Note: this satire is more biographical than theological, so even devout Christians will probably enjoy it.

What to Do About David Gregory’s Gun Law Violation

[High Praise! to Liberal Logic 101]

My suggestion for addressing this:

1) Thank David Gregory for proving that a law banning high-capacity magazines is completely ineffective.

2) Prosecute him with extreme prejudice.

3) Acquit him and strike down the DC magazine ban as unconstitutional.

UPDATE: as Arik [High Praise!] mentioned in the comments, there’s now a petition to press charges against David Gregory (currently about 2/3 the way to the required 25,000).

By the way, here’s another petition you should know about:

“Actually take these petitions seriously instead of just using them as an excuse to pretend you are listening”
37,167 Signatures

The official response is “We’re listening. Seriously.”

The One 2012 “of the Year” Prize Barack Obama Didn’t Win

Keln of Nuking Politics announces the winner of the 2012 Punchline Nuker of the Year Award.

Nail-bitingly close. It came down to a tie-breaker.

Oh Irony! Hollywood Celebrities Against Guns ALL Posed With Guns

I’m very disappointed to see Joel McHale in this. The paintball war episodes of Community are some of the best ones.

Gameville

I’m not an online gamer. I’m not even an off-line gamer. I have an Xbox, but I don’t have any games for it. I got it for the ESPN app to watch college football games. Other than fall Saturdays and bowl season, it sits quietly.

I’m on Facebook, but don’t do a lot of that. I certainly don’t play games on the Facebook. I know lots of people that did, though, and that’s fine. I know I enjoy some things that some people don’t care for.

I used to get Facebook updates about people I had friended playing all sorts of silly games. I would see where people bought tractors or recruited players to their mobs and all kinds of nonsense. I think I finally figured out how to stop getting those updates. Either that, or everybody I know quit playing silly games on the Facebook.

Apparently, lots of people quit playing those games. Zynga, the company responsible for Farmville, Mafia Wars, and a whole slew of other online Facebook games has decided to shut down some of their games.

They actually announced that games were shutting down back in October, it seems. But I didn’t notice, and apparently neither did Tech Crunch or Cnet, who just this week had stories about it. The games being shuttered include:

  • PetVille
  • Mafia Wars 2
  • FishVille
  • Vampire Wars
  • Treasure Isle
  • Indiana Jones Adventure World
  • Montopia
  • Mafia Wars Shakedown
  • Forestville
  • Mojitomo
  • Word Scramble Challenge

I’m pretty sure this is bad news. The reason? I don’t see Obamaville on the list. That’s the only made up environment I’ve been a part of.

Wait. What? Obama and his economy are real?

Suddenly Mafia Wars is looking more and more attractive.

Petition to Establish a Gun Free Zone Around Obama

[High Praise! to Moonbattery]

President Obama is a very important man, and we need to give him maximum protection.

We petition the Obama administration to:

Eliminate armed guards for the President, Vice-President, and their families, and establish Gun Free Zones around them.

Gun Free Zones are supposed to protect our children, and some politicians wish to strip us of our right to keep and bear arms. Those same politicians and their families are currently under the protection of armed Secret Service agents. If Gun Free Zones are sufficient protection for our children, then Gun Free Zones should be good enough for politicians.

It’s already over halfway to the 25,000 signature threshhold required for action.

See? People DO care about Obama.
