Bernie Sanders Clarifies Socialism

In a recent interview, Bernie Sanders said “what Democratic socialism is about is to maintain the strong entrepreneurial spirit that we have in this country… To continue to produce wealth, but to make sure it is more equitably distributed.”

Basically, “we want you to drive your car like normal, we just want it to have square wheels”.

Obama Warned Us – Too Many Prisoners

“Why can’t America train smarter criminals who can elude capture?”

Another Obamacare Surprise

A new report shows that Obamacare premiums have risen by double-digits.

Not up by double digits – your odds of keeping your doctor or your plan.

Cartoon of the Day – PC (a rerun)

Back in May, I saw Glenn McCoy’s cartoon and thought he absolutely nailed it. So, although there are many currently with the same message as this one, I feel that running this one again accomplishes two things:

  • Makes the point that Obama is doing a stupid and dangerous thing
  • Makes the point that he’s been doing the same stupid and dangerous things for a long time

The Illustrated Frank J: The Toughest Democrat Debate Question

After This, How Can Anyone – Even a Liberal – Take Sanders Seriously?

Even after Paris, Bernie Sanders said at the debate that he still thinks global warming is a bigger threat than terrorism

Yes, because nobody in Paris would’ve died had the temperature been 1.8 degrees cooler.

This Would Actually Be Better Than Obama’s Plan

The Other Least Popular Thing Democrats Do

Rock bottom ratings for the Democrats – only 8.5 million people watched their debate.

Maybe they could Republican it up a bit and invite George Soros on stage to rant, rave, and wear a dead squirrel on his head.

Climate Change is More Deadly Than Terrorism

AP – Antarctica – The nude, frozen corpses of hundreds of environmental activists were found earlier this morning by the crew of an ice breaking ship near Antarctica. Hundreds of other severely frostbitten survivors huddled together for warmth, and a scant few were being noshed upon by the cuddly polar bears they had tried to befriend.

“We don’t understand what went wrong,” explained one of the survivors, once his lips had sufficiently thawed. “When we planned our nude climate change protest, we expected that the ice caps would have receded by now. The GCM models told us that the globe would be dangerously warm long ago. Of course, the thermometers all said it was colder than Ted Cruz’s heart out there, but we assumed the thermometers were all broken. I mean, science, right? There were graphs and stuff? Al Gore had to stand on a ladder. It was supposed to be a nude romp in the newly tropic Antarctic, right? What went wrong? Yeah, it looked all icy and stuff, but we assumed that it was all just fine, white sand. I mean, didn’t the ice all melt already? What else could it be? When the drugs all wore off and we realized how cold it felt, we began flatulating and exhaling like crazy, but the greenhouse gases didn’t warm us. They didn’t warm us! Gaia, why hast though forsaken us?”

When asked to comment on the tragedy, President Obama had this to say. “This just vindicates what I have been saying all along. Climate change is a more dire threat to the world than terrorism. Here we have just one example when climate change models killed more democratic voters in a single attack than ISIS .”

MST3K Question of the Day: Updating the Classic

mst3kPitchWe all know that Mystery Science Theater 3000 will be returning soon. And, if you’re like me, you’d just be happy with more of the same. That is, a guy in space being shown bad movies and him watching them with his two robot friends while making fun of the movie.

Simple. Well, sort of. Except for all of the shooting the janitor into space and him building robots and … okay, it’s not simple. But, it’s just a show, you should really just relax.

Remembering, though, that the show was canceled back in the day — twice, in fact — we want the show to stick around for a while. As long as it’s funny, at least.

But, you know kids these days. Things can’t be like they used to be. We have to update things to get the kids’ attention. And, TV is no different.

Which brings us to our MST3K Question of the Day: What changes to MST3K are needed to make it appealing to today’s TV viewer?
