* Obama says he’s getting better at being president and deserves a second term. Well, for the first claim, maybe he is getting better. He had the advantage of starting so poorly, it was hard for him to do any worse. As for the second part, it’s more a question of whether we as a country deserve him. And since we haven’t genocided anyone recently, I’m going to say “No.”
* Is Santorum going to finally have his day? Polls show he could win Minnesota and Missouri while coming in second in Colorado. The party hasn’t really given him much consideration — despite technically winning Iowa — making him pretty much the only one not to be a frontrunner yet. His problems are charges he’s a big government conservative, he comes off as whiny sometimes, and a couple terms as Senator by itself isn’t much of a qualification to be a president. But he’s stuck around, so he has stick-to-it-tiveness. And he’s not Romney. Maybe that’s enough.
What’s this “brokered convention” thing again?
* So Iran apparently has an army of ninja women. That does seem like the appropriate first step before getting nuclear weapons. I don’t know how we skipped over it.
* So if you were looking to the New York Post for a new column by me, instead there’s one by the puppy blender. Is he moving in on my turf? His column is on Obama and rising tuition costs, and it’s not very funny so I don’t get the point of it.
* Wisdom of the Day from jon:
Madonna was super unsupportive when her dad tried to be a preacher.

Well she was in trouble deep.
How do you tell an Iranian Ninja Woman from a regular Ninja?

By the Eyebrow.
Thanks I’m here all week, try the veal.
Like a Virgin Ninja
Santorum reminds me of Mr. Rogers.
It’s a beautiful day in the DC neighborhood… until the Democrat gangsters get him…
I can’t imagine Mr. Rogers going warrior and ripping Obama a new one.
You know, FDR did commission a crew of ninja women, but he made the mistake of putting Eleanor in charge. She only picked women who were uglier than Frances Perkins. Seeing them assembled may have been what caused his stroke.
“So Iran apparently has an army of ninja women.”
Yep, strap bombs to your children. Make your women do your fighting. Sounds like something they’d do.
A “brokered convention” happens when the Republican establishment breaks down and then has to break-out the
cigars in a smoke-filled roomnunchucks.“So Iran apparently has an army of ninja women.”
Yes, but they take a their husband or male relative along to drive the getaway car.
According to the article they are not allowed to ski without a male chaperone. So yeah someone with balls will have to drive the ninja bus.
@hwuu – “So yeah someone with balls will have to drive the ninja bus.”
Or at least some Iranian guy.
Sounds like the start of a depressed Iranian
taxicabbus driver joke.“Allem allah allem el al… ALWAYS!”
Iran has an army of ninja women? Have we briefed our B-1b pilots about this?
It took me 4.5 seconds to get the Madonna joke. I timed myself.
Jimmy,
I know it’s a day late, but happy birthday. I could sing it to you in my best ‘Marilyn Monroe singing to JFK impression’ but I think that with my 8 months-pregnant belly we’d all be left a little traumatized.
“….he comes off as whiny sometimes, and a couple terms as Senator by itself isn’t much of a qualification to be a president.”
Well, change senator to state of IL senator and you’ve got the perfect qualifications to be POTUS.
Thanks, CarolynthePregnant8Months! I’ll take a rain check for when I win your baby pool. Hehe.
I thought I was being attacked by hairy iranian ninja women, but it turned out to be a pack of rosieodonnell look alikes on pms.
The great part about being a female Iranian ninja is…
They already have the outfit.
The badt part about being a bus driver for the Iranian Female Ninja Team…
Its the IRANIAN Female Ninja Team.
Drumroll…..
However, They do dress the same as the Iranian Bikini Team.
@hwuu,
The Iranian Bikini Team? Please, some of us may be eating.
That’s not so bad for a twenty-five-year-old song reference.
In 2008, since there was nobody but John McCain left by the time Idaho had its primary, I wrote in Rick Santorum. I’d be willing to vote for him again, unless Jim DeMint or Bobby Jindal jump in. At least Santorum knows which whine goes with beer!
WHAT Iranian Bikini Team??
Here’s THE Iranian Bikini Team in action (answered my own question). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Phg9uruAWk&feature=related Later these women were stoned to death for not properly covering their faces in accordence with the holy whatever.
I’m proud to say I still haven’t understood the Madonna reference.
Sorry I’ve been off line for a while. Some sinner stole my laptop. What this about a bikini clad ninja warrior? Was that part of Madonna’s halftime show I missed?
@EdthePastor – “Some sinner stole my laptop.”
Iranian Women Ninjas strike again!
Am I the only person who watched the halftime show and thought of Molly Shannon’s SNL character – the one that works out and says she’s 50? The whole thing was like geriatric cabaret. Of course, that’s probably sexier than pregnant cabaret.
Supah Stah!!!!!!
That whole Madonna halftime thing was lamer than lame; it pegged my minimally cultured lame-o-meter.
Clint Eastwood: It’s halftime in America and Madonna is doing the halftime show with 20-year-old material – maybe it’s time to give up.
@zzyzx,
Saw your video link. Question: Are those muslim women allowed to ride jet-skis without being accompanied by a male relative? I think not.
What was it Clint said? That America is not the kind of nation to go down with one punch? So it was an ad for Obama — “No, we need a second punch! Four more years!”
With the whole “halftime in America” does that mean this country will only be around until 2248?
I caucus in 30min but I’m torn between voting for Newt (because I hate him least) and voting for Romney (Because I hate Santorum most and Romney can beat him). Suggestions anyone?
So why was madonna at the Superbowel? What day was the Superbowel?
I heard something about a super model who couldn’t catch something from Tom Brady or Terry Bradshaw or someone.
I thougth Mannings name was Peyton or something like that.
Apparently they still make Chryslers.
Its half time in America, does that mean we get to listen to a marching band and see young things in short skirts? Or do we have to just sit trough another speech by sasquatch’s husband?
@HP5K – RON PAUL!!!!11!!
kidding
@ HP5K — RON PAUL!!!111!!
HP5000: Yes. Choose between Not Romney and Not Not Romney.
Oh No! I’ve lured the Ron Paul nuts out of hiding. Maybe if he changes his foreign policy I will consider him someday.
@ Jimmy Thanks that reminder was actually very helpful.
@zzyzx
Those poor women are wearing jet ski covers.
Now that I looked I’m going to be getting those Muslim matchmaker banner ads again.
Go Santorum!
In most other cultures hwuu those would be jet ski covers. Well…here in Alaska they’d be snow machine covers. In Iran however…they are bikinis.
From Human Events:
Santorum has a few significant advantages over Mitt Romney and Newt Gingrich, beginning with the fact that he is not Mitt Romney or Newt Gingrich.
Maybe next year for the half time show they can dig up Judy Garland and prop her corpse up on stage and have it lip synch some of her oldies but goodies! It wouldn’t be any lamer than what we just saw!!!
Actually, there was one other name on the ballot in the Idaho Republican Primary in 2008 other than McCain, and I voted for him. He got about 25% of the vote too…
