The PGA Minority Golf Champions
What’s missing from this picture? This is a photo of the PGA Minority Collegiate Golf Champions, from historically black college Bethune-Cookman… only there isn’t anybody black on the team. They recruit white golfers so they can win. Only in America can a bunch of white kids win a golf tournament for minorities.

Pres. Rutherford B. Hayes weighs in on Obama’s name dropping. We could sure use a man like Rutherford B. Hayes right now. Even Woody Hayes.

Obama fundraising declines. “…the numbers also point to what some have described as a problem for the campaign – the unwillingness of big donors whose income and industries have been vilified by Obama to give him money this time around.” Biting the hand that bleeds you.

Obama’s role in history revealed. Yep, he was there on the moon with Armstrong, suggesting where to plant the flag no doubt. The guy is apparently no Barack-come-lately, he appears to have been the guiding force behind the great events in history.

Obama worth as much as $10 million. Has a big account at JP Morgan Chase, one of those Wall Street banks he hates. How’s he make his money? Book royalties – he’s the world’s best selling unread author, and part of the “one percent.” BTW, interesting how that narrative has vanished from the MSM’s songbook, ain’t it?

The lovely (or at least unique) Lady Gaga
Muslims finally win a battle in the culture wars. The largest Muslim nation in the world, Indonesia, has denied Lady Gaga a permit for her sold-out June 3 concert in Gelora Bung Karno stadium. Islamic leaders said the suggestive nature of her show would undermine the moral fiber of the nation. Yes, believe it or not, the Muslims might be right for once. Hey, even a blind pig finds an acorn once in a while.

Greece on brink of collapse. Are Greeks withdrawing Euros because they know the poop is about to hit the fan and their new currency will be worth a lot less? Who’s next? Spain? California?

France’s new president marks first day in office with lightning strike. “A presidential jet carrying newly inaugurated French President Francois Hollande was hit by lightning en route to Berlin…” F5 irony warnings have been issued. Hollande was unhurt – the plane returned to Paris and he took off again in a new one.

Obama drops his name into the other presidential biographies. On whitehouse.gov, that is, for every prez since Silent Cal. Here’s his drop-in on Reagan: “In a June 28, 1985 speech Reagan called for a fairer tax code, one where a multi-millionaire did not have a lower tax rate than his secretary. Today, President Obama is calling for the same with the Buffett Rule.” We’d also like to drop his name, but into something made of porcelain which flushes.

EDITOR’S NOTE: Remember the 1983 Woody Allen film titled Zelig? It was a pseudo-documentary in which Allen used blue screen technology to insert himself into historical newsreel footage. Perhaps these additions to the other presidents’ biographies were just Obama’s way of paying homage to Allen.

Sowell: A censored race war. The media and the authorities sweep black-on-white crime under the rug for fear of inciting white backlash. Sowell says this can backfire and if an explosion occurs, “things could be a lot worse than if the truth had come out earlier, and steps taken by both black and white leaders to deal with the hoodlums and with those who inflame them.” Yeah, but sweeping dirt under the rug is basically the way politicians deal with every problem.

Tip for WaPo: Look into young Joe Biden. From “What It Takes: The Way to the White House”, a story of the 1988 presidential election by reporter Richard Ben Cramer: “’Sheriff Joe’ was reportedly involved in a spate of anti-social activities as a child and adolescent, including but not limited to elaborate neighborhood pranks, street brawls, and even an assault on a lowly dorm employee in college.” Like “Dreams from Bill Ayers My Father” another book nobody bothered to read.

Preachers in Baltimore blast Obama for same-sex marriage stance. “He has said to his base, African-Americans, ‘I am going against your beliefs and your thoughts,’” Pastor Burns said. “He’s [Pastor Burns] so opposed to same-sex marriage, he told church members he will no longer support the president and now predicts Obama will lose the election because of it.” Backfire.

Warren: Wall Street Fighting A “Guerrilla War” Against Regulations. From the article: “Well, this is about accountability,” Elizabeth Warren said about her call for Jamie Dimon to step down as CEO of JPMorgan Chase. “You know, the banks have been loading up on risk and they don’t want to be accountable. And Jamie Dimon not only is CEO of JPMorgan Chase, he holds this position of public trust, advising the New York Fed on how to regulate risk for these large financial institutions like his own financial institution.” If accountability is the issue we have a much better idea. Let them fail. Let them go out of business. Let them end up in bread lines, soup kitchens and going door to door trying to get work mowing our lawns. Of course a committed corporatist like Elizabeth Warren could never allow for that solution. That gives the power to the market. That gives the power to the consumer. That gives the power to the people. And if that were ever to happen there would be precious little left for her to use in that never ending quest to control our lives.

Obama ad calls Mitt Romney’s Bain Capital firm a ‘vampire’: Check the puncture wounds on your paycheck. Those things weren’t caused by Bain Capital. Those holes were made by government.

Kodak had a secret nuclear reactor loaded with weapons-grade uranium hidden in a basement. How did they get permission to own it, let alone install it in a basement in the middle of a densely populated city? Nobody really knows. Nobody in city or state government or anywhere else knew about it until it was recently leaked by an ex-employee. BTW, it was dismantled in 2006. Makes you wonder who else may have stuff like this and where.

Obama gives speech in front of Reno couple’s garage for some reason. Given his campaign’s voracious desire for money, we suspect Barry’s talking up the couple’s garage sale in return for 50% of the profits. Did we say 50%????

President Obama’s Wall Street problem. “The giant $2 billion trading loss at JPMorgan Chase highlights a central problem in President Barack Obama’s case for a second term: Four years after the financial crisis nearly brought the nation to its knees, very little appears to have changed.” Obama’s anti-Wall St rhetoric is basically just street theatre for the masses. The article hints at the central problem – JP Morgan Chase is run by a Democrat Obama supporter.
