Divider, not uniter: Obama’s 3rd year is the most polarized presidential 3rd year by a wide margin. Must be all that reach-across-the-aisle sweet talk of his. Stay tuned – a president’s 4th year is generally his worst in this regard.
Five-Year Treasury yield hits record low. The MSM will be spinning today’s 2.8% 4Q GDP into a “things are gettin’ better, REELECT OBAMA!” baloney sandwich like they were overpriced windmills. The bond market says something different. Investors pouring into 5 yr bonds at a .76% yield says we’re turning Japanese, they think we’re turning Japanese, they really think so.
Parent of Obama-backed battery maker goes bankrupt. Obama picks another winner and pisses away $118 million more of your hard-earned tax dollars stuff.
Obama: I want an economy “where we’re making stuff and selling stuff and moving it around.” Maybe the economy would be better if the government weren’t being run by someone who thinks like an 8th grader.
Hawaii’s legislature is considering a measure requiring Internet providers to keep track of every Web site their customers visit. The reason for this stroke of genius is one of the legislators herself (one of the few Republicans, in fact) has been “attacked” by a web site. Hey Hawaii, if you paddle really fast, you can make North Korea in time for the spring food shortage!
North Korea threatens to punish mobile-phone users as “war criminals.” Citizens caught defecting to China or using mobile phones during the 100-day mourning period for Kim Jong-il will be considered “war criminals” and punished. Seriously, is there any place on earth more effed-up than this craphole? And to Jimmy Peanuts and the other morons who talk about it like it’s paradise… go there and stay there. Go to hell.
Lautenberg: Obama doesn’t have to convince voters they are better off since he became president. Asked if Obama could make the case to us that we are better off since he allowed us to serve him, Sen. Hackenberg gave a non-denail denial. Try it yourself: “Mr. President, do your proxies accuse your critics of raaaaacism to hide the fact you’re incompetent?” “They don’t need to!” See?
Cocaine shipment found at United Nations in fake diplomatic pouch. So, will they blame this on Bush? Global Warming? Or is this the new sustainable cocaine?
Madonna “bringing gay to the Super Bowl.” So says one of the dancers, anyway. Back in the early days of the Super Bowl, a typical halftime show featured stuff like the Whodaheckaredey College marching band playing music to chop celery by. Try and locate a video and play it instead of watching this one, you’ll enjoy it a lot more.
Gov. Beverly Perdue (D-NC) will not seek re-election – fears a fight with GOP over public education would become too political. Uhhh, yeah, right. Perdue is the nutjob who “joked” about suspending elections for a few years so the pols can “fix” the economy. What would really help the economy is getting dingbats like her out of high office. Good riddance.
Issa says Holder should apologize to Mexico: “Justice has blood on their hands”. 300 Mexicans killed by weapons handed out by a crackpot scheme to advance Obama’s political agenda. So what? Obama and Holder only “care” about people who are of political use to them. The “It’s All About ME!” Administration.
Issa demands Arizona assistant US attorney testify on Fast n’ Furious. Michael Morrissey, whose boss announced he would plead the Fifth last week, is expected to do so also. If we still had a viable free press in this country, they would’ve been interested in this. On that note, FnF now has its own website. As for the “MSM”, see ya on the unemployment line.
Rep. Barney Frank to marry longtime partner. We don’t eeeeevennn want to think what the bachelor party will be like.

Victory for Jamie Oliver in the U.S. as McDonald’s is forced to stop using ‘pink slime’ in its burger recipe. Looks like the old “Where’s the beef?” commercials were right but for the wrong reason.
Healthy cocktails to beat the ‘Sundance cold.’ Yes folks, this is how the 99% drink when they’re whooping it up with Robert Redford. We guess boilermakers at Joe’s Bar on the corner are now considered blase’ by the 99%.
Occupy DC activist accuses Van Jones, MoveOn of smear campaign. Occupy DC leader states “a lot of these attacks on us came after we started to call out Democratic operatives that tried to take control of the movement.” Sounds like the Democraps, using their standard proxies and techniques, are out to trash any Occupado who objects to being a DNC sock puppet.
‘I’m The Chairman!’ Waxman Gets Chewed Out During Keystone Hearing. See Representative Ratatouille D-CA, get his ass handed to him.
Holy cow: Another Obama lie from the State of the Union Address. This clip, in which Obama makes a “joke” about stupid regulations, has been making the rounds of the internet. He takes credit for getting rid of a 40-year old regulation that classified milk as a pollutant, but as this IHTM article from June 10, 2010 points out, it was the Obama EPA which issued that idiotic interpretation of the 40-year old regulation. In other words, the President is attempting to take credit for eliminating red tape that his administration established. Holy cow, indeed.
Alaska Airlines to stop handing out prayer cards with meals after receiving complaints. We have to wonder what the results of this will be? We’re staying off Alaska Airlines to be safe.
IRS report reveals 36 Obama aides owe $833,000 in back taxes. “These people working for Mr. Fair Share apparently haven’t paid any share, let alone their fair share.” We’re sure all those deadbeats will be inspired to pony up by President Tax-Free-Vacation’s wonderful “State of the Collective” speech.
New Mexico driver’s license data point to fraud. “In one instance, 48 foreign nationals claimed to live at a smoke shop in Albuquerque to get a license.” Nothing to see here! Just increasing the Democrat voter base.
REVEALED: MICHIGAN UNION MANUAL INSTRUCTS TEACHERS ON HOW TO USE CHILDREN AS ‘PROPAGANDA.’ Yes, let’s whip out the old ‘it’s for the children’ and scare the crap out of everyone so we get what we want!”
Tim Geithner says he will not serve a 2nd term as Treasury Secretary. He didn’t say he will resign, he said he’s sure Obama will not ask him back in the event Emperor Zero is reelected. Guess the fix is in for MF Corzine….
Gingrich dismisses Pelosi claim she knows ‘something.’ We agree with Newt. Expecting Queen Nancy to know ‘something’ exceeds her design specs.
The Sundance Film Festival parties. See how Robert Redford and the 99% live it up. If this is the way the 99% lives, we can’t wait to see what the 1% does.
