All Together Now – The Less Awful Version

Posted by on

Glove and Boots turns what is arguably the worst song ever written by the Beatles into something that’s at least fun (once you get to the third verse, anyway. Prior to that, it stays faithful to the Fab Four’s ode to mindless repetition and non-sequiturs)

Oh, and the tune will be stuck in your head for a while, so if you need to perform activities where people’s lives hang in the balance, you probably shouldn’t listen to it immediately prior, lest you become distracted at a critical moment.

A new report shows that 29% of children now learn to use a mobile phone or a tablet computer before they can talk.

And I suspect Sebelius found some who dabble in web site design.

Why the Botched Obamacare Rollout Is 100% the Republicans’ Fault

Posted by on

I have a new PJ Media column on how the botched Obamacare rollout is 100% the Republicans’ fault.

And this all had to especially affect President Obama. He is a very sensitive guy. He cried at the end of Old Yeller. And at the end of Titanic. And at the end of Ghostbusters — because he was scared. Scared of the ghosts. Also, he really sympathized with the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man — the way it walked around with a big smile on its face, ignorantly destroying everything around it — and then the Ghostbusters just blew it up. That was really mean. The Marshmallow Man thought he was helping.

Read. Enjoy. Discuss.

All This Fuss Over A Simple Punctuation Error…

President Obama just issued the following apology for the misunderstanding over his repeated statement that, “If you like your health care plan, you can keep it. Period.”

“Let me be clear. What I meant to say was, ‘If you like your health care plan, you can keep it. Asterisk.’ To be completely fair, I think you’ll all agree that ‘.’ and ‘*’ are pretty hard to differentiate on a TelePrompter. Thank you, good night, and God Da… er, uh, Bless America.”
