* So Obama’s working on a new jobs plan. He’s worked on lots of jobs plans before, but this time is different: He’s going to put his plan in a red binder instead of the usual green binder he’s used in the past. It’s a bold move, but will it get results? Probably not; Obama hasn’t had a very close relationship with results. Him and results are kind of estranged. Actually, a couple of times Obama has seen results on the street and has yelled out, “Hey, results! It’s me, Obama!” And results just kept walking and acted like it didn’t see him.
But Obama and spending are good friends; maybe those two can make something happen. Who wants more spending? No one? Well, too bad.
* I notice they have this fancy work for trying to reduce spending: “austerity.” Why do we need exotic terms for trying to balance the budget? Shouldn’t that just be normal and anything else called “FAIL”, i.e., “Obama’s proposing some FAIL policies.”
* Michelle Bachmann joked about the earthquake and hurricane being a warning from God about D.C.’s spending, and people took it seriously and freaked out because you have to freak out about something. Still, it’s pretty obvious God’s position on debt. Just take Proverbs 22:7 for instance:
“The rich rules over the poor, And the borrower is servant to the lender.”
Of course, when the economy collapses like it does, hitting us with an earthquake as a warning is just overkill.
* Wikileaks has dumped a whole bunch more documents, and these ones include diplomatic sources the government was trying to protect. You know, in the movies, the CIA is always being evil and murdering people to cover things up, but why hasn’t this happened with the Wikileaks people? Did Obama defang them and forbid evil murders? Poor CIA; they just get kicked around these days.
* Dick Cheney offered to resign as vice president three times. Of course, each time Cheney had a shotgun in hand and the Secret Service were shouting at George W. Bush, “Don’t do it! Don’t do it!”
* Al Gore wants to treat skeptics of global warming as racists, and skeptics of global warming want to treat Al Gore as a fat weirdo. Let’s see which view become more popular in the mainstream.
BTW, here’s a must-see takedown of Al Gore from the Glenn Beck radio show.
* The Democrat running for Anthony Weiner’s seat was asked how big the nation’s debt was, and he guessed $4 trillion. He’s running for Congress and he had to guess how big the debt is. And his guess was off by $10 trillion. Do you ever get the feeling the Democrats don’t take this debt thing very seriously? You’d think maybe after the credit downgrade, they’d think that maybe it’s worth looking into, but apparently some Democrats don’t even think it’s important enough to know the correct order of magnitude of the debt. This is like running for Congress during WWII and when asked who we’re at war with, the candidate answered, “Someone in Europe — Finland maybe.”
I’ve made this point before and I’m going to keep making it: The people we send to D.C. are really really dumb and really really useless. That’s why it’s crucial to give them as little power as possible, and certainly as little spending power as possible.
* Do you know yesterday was the “Summer Bank Holiday” in the UK? I mean, they don’t even try to come up with a pretense for a holiday. They’re just like, “We’re a bank, we like being closed a lot, and it’s the summer.” I mean, we have next Monday off for “Labor Day”, but we at least named it to act like it’s actually about something. No one actually knows what the holiday celebrates, but at least we pretend.
* Obama’s illegal alien uncle was arrested in Massachusetts for drunk driving. I remember that Obama also had an illegal alien aunt in this country to. I bet there is going to be a lot of pressure on immigration official to deport as many Obamas as they are legally able.
* There’s some talk about extending legal protection to ugly people. How about just handing out free paper bags with eye holes in them?
* Though it didn’t get great reviews, I’ve really enjoyed Resident Evil: The Mercenaries for 3DS and played it a ton. What’s it really made me want to do, though, was go back and replay Resident Evil 4
, which I owned for both Gamecube and Wii and probably ranks in my top five all time favorite games. Resident Evil 5
was pretty good and seemed to follow in the same vein as Resident Evil 4, but there was just something off about it where it just seemed like a pale imitation of Resident Evil 4. Even disregarding the forced co-op throughout the game that everyone complained about, the way it was setup — the level structure or something — just never felt as immersive as Resident Evil 4. It was more like playing through levels of an action game than being in a Resident Evil game. The 3DS will be getting it’s own full-fledged Resident Evil game
next year, so high hopes they get that one right. And bring back zombies.

After consulting with ussjimmycarter, I have concluded that one man’s ugly is another man’s beauty.
Jeez, does Obama have any relatives who are in the U.S. legally?
The way I see it, this whole drunk driving uncle thing was intentional and part of the Obama jobs program. He’s using his uncle to give the cops job security. As long as people are driving drunk, that ensures that we need police.
What? Krugman says stuff like that and he makes a living off of it.
Also, I figure those who want to fight global warming are racist:
1. Stop global warming
2. Ice caps begin to grow
3. Ice caps are white
4. As ice caps grow, there is more white in the world
A-HA!!!!!!!!!! More white = RACIST!
Jimmy, have you gone to the doctor since this consultation? I cannot recommend said action highly enough.
Carolyn,
You can’t make money by saying stupid things because you don’t have a Smart Professor Beard.
If we deported all of the illegal Obamas would Biden be president? Wishful thinking.
Resident Evil is set at DNC headquarters, isn’t it? If not, it should be.
What is it about DUI democrats and Massachusetts?
Docktor, Marko? Philosophy Doctor? Juris Doctor? Medical Doctor? Doctor Hoctor Proctor? (“For god’s sake, let him smoke!!”)
I try to stay away from all of those.
Marko – You have to excuse Carolyn, she had a brain spasm of fat prego hormones and such…
Jimmy, I’d recommend a butt doctor so that you can have your head neatly extracted from a professional…
And in which ‘professional’ is my head embedded?
Of course, Al Gore has only equated THINKING and SPEAKING about global warming / climate change to racism. If ACTIONS mattered, he would be the Bull Connor (another Democrat, I must point out) of global warming. His jetting around the globe in a single year has spewed more carbon into the atmosphere than my filthy little truck will emit in a lifetime. #@!%$^^#@ hypocrite.
Since the big O administration has more or less said they wont deport illegals unless they break the law, I’m very interested to see if anything happens to his DUI uncle.
I like Rick Perry sending a bill to DC for illegal immigration.
Obama- “I need the latinos to vote for me, even if they are illegal. I’m going to ignore the Federal Government’s responsibility to secure our borders.”
Perry- “OK, then we’re going to round up and deport anyone who’s here illegally, if we catch them breaking the law.”
Obama- “You can’t do that! That’s the Federal Government’s responsibility to ignore! I’ll sue your ass!”
Perry- “Well then, here’s a bill for the expenses Texas has incurred due to your incompetence.”
Obama- “Bill? I like spending money, but that doesn’t sound like stimulus. I’d better check with Biden.”
I believe the politically correct term is ‘beauty impaired’ not…’ugly people’ which is derogatory and hateful. Lets get with the program and use the proper terminology people!
Jimmy,
Quite possibly a witch doctor. You know, if’n you want revenge for all of the creepy stuff ussjc does to impair your psyche.
“Carolyn,
You can’t make money by saying stupid things because you don’t have a Smart Professor Beard.”
Marko,
What if I get those glasses with the big nose and fake moustache? Is that close enough?
I bet Obama’s uncle doesn’t discriminate against ugly women.
legal protection for ugly people? Wow this comes 25 years too late. I’m married now, why do I need legal protection now?
Will they institute affirmative action dating?
Ugle Guy: Want ot go out?
Hot Babe: No way you’re ugly!
Ugly Guy: I’ll sue.
Hot Babe: Sigh
What should we call people who discriminate against the ugly?
Face-ists?
Remember the old saying: Ugliness is in the eye of the beholder.
So, a little voodoo economics, eh, Marko? Oh, and Marko, no impairment. But I nearly got skewered once by one of ussjc’s giant, Big Horn Mosquitoe pets. I’m still trying to figure out what he does with the dead horns, though, besides hanging them up in his bedroom. I understand they even have names: Hillary, Michelle, Rosie, Barny, Helen, Debbie…
“Beauty is only skin deep, but ugly goes clean to the bone”
~ Dorothy Parker
As far as this ugliness thing goes, life is hard. It really is, and I must disagree with the folks here. I fully support government efforts to protect myself from ugly people.
“So Obama’s working on a new jobs plan.”
Is it not the supreme irony that someone who got to the age of 47 without ever having an actual job is supposedly an expert on how to get a job?
So what does Uncle Omar get credit for? He’s about as ugly as they come but he’s also an African-nonamerican drunk (It’s a diseeeeeeease ya know) , does this mean he gets two (more) checks? They keep saying he has a “valid” license but he got it with a stolen SSN (I wonder if it’s from Connecticut) …so how is that “valid”? It’s funny, when I first got my MA. license, 33 years ago I needed a real BIRTH CERTIFICATE…imagine that? I guess being “president” isn’t the only thing you don’t need one for anymore.
@zzyxz: “Beauty impaired” won’t cut it – “impaired” implies there is something wrong with my looks. I am “differently visaged.” Better yet, “exceptionally visaged.”
Listen, if the President of the United States doesn’t discriminate against ugly women, why should we?
FormerHostage – Reminds me of my favorite Country Song Title – “I hate every bone in your body except mine”…
I’m super awesome studly good looking…in a Clint Eastwood sort of way so I don’t have to worry about being discriminated against for being ugly. I need to start a discrimination group against totally cool, awesome looking, super smart overall superior people!!! I know…Hitler tried it but he just took it a little too far. I will leave the Jooooooooooos alone!
“Michelle Bachmann joked about the earthquake and hurricane being a warning from God about D.C.’s spending” I’m always uncomfortable with supposedly intelligent people who miss the point by galaxies. Of all the evil in the world for God to be concerned with “DC spending” is not what I think he’s in a lather about.
How about:
Murders
Rape
Theft
Pornography
Abortion
Slavery
Genocide
Terrorism
Man’s inhumanity to man
Adultery
and those are just the ones that come trippingly to the keyboard. God is really concerned about how much the government spends? What it spends it on, that I can see. May-haps that was the message. Something to ponder.
“He’s going to put his plan in a red binder instead of the usual green binder he’s used in the past.”
So that’s what he meant by green jobs, huh? And so the new ones are…commie jobs? Meaning we’re ALL going to work in the Obama Administration?
