Paper: Marines down on Obama. We can think of lotsa other people we’d rather have mad at us. (Full article available to subscribers only.)

Cash-strapped NY county goes after school districts with “toilet tax.” NY’s Nassau county is levying a “sewer use fee” against public school districts, including one that has a septic system. The districts will pass the cost along to local taxpayers but they would rather utilize that source of OPM themselves: “For us, it’s a large amount of money. It’s like a teacher salary.” When times are tough, the pols will even eat their own.

Obama to tout green energy ‘investments’ at solar facility employing 5 workers, relying on $54 million in taxpayer subsidies. That’s $10.8 million for each job “created” to produce solar energy costing 3.5 times as much as energy produced by old-fashioned racist fuels. OK, it looks bad now, but wait until the perpetual motion machine factory gets going. Unicorn cold-cuts, anyone?

Sandra Fluke: Politicians should be required to pass pro-woman litmus test to get elected. It’s no fluke, if they babble on long enough, their inner Stalinist always emerges. BTW Sandy… will you be consulting with other lefty interest groups, such as Sharia Law experts, to devise this litmus test thingy? We have a hunch that other folks’ concept of “pro-woman” ain’t exactly the same as yours. Just sayin’.

Rosie O’Donnell is apparently not on speaking terms with Oprah Winfrey after her show was axed from OWN. A chat show host not talking??? No wonder she was cancelled.

Alan “The Bus Buster” Grayson comes out for individual liberty… sort of. Evil statist clown’s anti-Santorum campaign email goes from “if you’re against pornography, then don’t watch it” to the non-sequitur “if you’re against universal health care, just keep your distance from doctors and hospitals.” Sorry Flash, but the Obamacare crap sandwich you voted for compels us to buy insurance, like it or not. Just how hard did you hit that bus, Al?

Tom Hanks, Glenn Frey in 2004: ‘Blackface,’ race jokes at fundraising auction. The narrator of Obama’s “The Road We’ve Travelled” was filmed walking on the wrong side of the politically-correct tracks. “In response to the video, Congress of Racial Equality national spokesperson Niger Innis has called on President Obama to remove Hanks’ narration from his campaign film.” Obama’s proxies calling every opponent raaaaacist makes silly stuff like this fair game.

Military expert Joe Biden: Bin Laden raid most audacious plan in last 500 years. Really? Ever hear of D-Day, Inchon or Desert Storm, to name a few? And what did Super Major General Obama do to merit credit for this operation besides say “go ahead.” Seriously, does this man ever think about what he’s saying when he speaks?

GE’s Immelt sours on Obama? “…he’s privately rooting for Mitt Romney to win the Republican nomination and defeat Obama in the fall.” Why only privately? GE gets subsidies for being “green”, tax breaks for creating jobs (in China) and everybody knows what the Chicago thug does to opponents (re: Gibson Guitar and the Koches.) But now, Jeff has been “outed” by Gasparino’s op-ed… at the very least, he’s got a lot of ‘splainin’ to do to his former bro, BO.

Here, in one graphic, is what’s wrong with American healthcare. “For health care providers, insulation is a bonanza. Because consumers are not spending their own money, they accept doctors’ recommendations for services without questioning them and without concern for cost.” Well, costs are never a concern when you’re spending other people’s money.

How one man escaped from a North Korean prison camp. “The papers explained why his father’s family had been locked up in Camp 14. The unforgivable crime Shin’s father had committed was being the brother of two young men who had fled south during the Korean war. Shin’s crime was being his father’s son.” All statist roads lead to North Korea. Read it and weep. And we mean that literally.

Half of likely voters expect the Court to strike down Obamacare and strong majorities see other major Obama policies making life more difficult for themselves and the country… Obama policies will increase the debt: 62-25, increase joblessness: 48-38, increase energy prices: 58-20, increase dependency on foreign oil: 46-36. You can’t fool all of the people all of the time.

Bad Meme Rising: The WaPo is out with a long, reported tick tock on the failed “grand bargain” deficit cutting negotiations of last summer. It’s hard to read and not reach one conclusion: Obama blew it. But he is still the smartest man ever to become… Uh, what we mean is that experience is not needed when you have great judge…. What we’re really trying to say is… damn, stooopid Fox News Washington Post!

Chicago Dems: “Vote for the crook, it’s important.” “West Side Democratic elected officials urged voters to support an Illinois House member charged with bribery. It looks bad, they acknowledged, but it will prevent the seat from falling into the hands of Republicans.” Saying “vote for the crook” in Chicago is like saying “go climb the tree” in Yellowstone.

Bristol Palin: “Mr. President, When Should I Expect Your Call?” Alluding to Obama’s call to Sandra Fluke to apologize for Rush Limbaugh’s “slut” comment, she writes “I’m a little surprised my phone hasn’t rung. Your $1,000,000 donor Bill Maher has said reprehensible things about my family. He’s made fun of my brother because of his Down’s Syndrome. He’s said I was ‘f—-d so hard a baby fell out.’ What if you did something radical and wildly unpopular with your base and took a stand against the denigration of all women… even if they’re just single moms? Even if they’re Republicans?” Well Bristol, dinja know Republicans ain’t really womyn???

Supermodel Elle Macpherson loves Obama: ‘I’m socialist – what do you expect?’ What do we expect? What we expect out of most other entertainment industry doofuses (or is “doofi” the plural of “doofus”?) which is all this, and less.

Chris Christie: “…let’s be very leery, very wary of sending another member of Congress to the White House.” He was making a pitch for Romney at the time, but he has a good point: let’s learn from our O.B.A.M.A. (One Big-Assed Mistake, America.)

What if the Left is really nothing but astro-turf? “…what if you are looking at a political movement that claims to represent ‘the people,’ yet constantly gets caught manufacturing the appearance of popular support?” Well, the Left does have an inordinate number of frauds and phonies, not to mention professional actors. If ever a group was going to pull a big-time con job, it would be these people.

hip rutherford b hayes. Defenders of President Rutherford B. Hayes get some payback on the simpleton who pompously (and incorrectly) mocked a chief executive and former Army Major who was wounded in the Civil War. Hey Barry, next time you make stuff up about a president, better pick on Hugo Chavez.

Newspapers, “America’s fastest-shrinking industry.” “A USC Annenberg School study reached the stark conclusion that most printed US dailies would be gone in five years.” The article blames the usual suspect, the Internet, but commenters seem more inclined to the idea that it’s not paper they dislike, it’s the useless leftist crap that’s printed on it. Denial – it’s not just a river in Egypt.

Politico: Four hard truths of health care reform. Politico embraces its inner raaaacist and acknowledges that Barry and Nancy’s legislative love child just might not be all they claimed. Hey, maybe what America really needs is a contraception mandate to prevent unwanted legislative births, hmmm?

Steyn: Future generations will laugh at us for taking Obama seriously. The king’s big speech on energy at Prince George’s Community College relies far too much on “Half-a-Dozen Surefire Cheap Cracks for Lazy Public Speakers.” Our POTUS is a phony, a blowhard, an empty suit, a joke. And the joke is on us.

Retracting “Mr. Daisey and the Apple Factory.” A devastating hit piece which exposed Apple as a brutal taskmaster overseeing near-slavery conditions in its Chinese factories turns out to be… total bullspit. “I’m not going to say that I didn’t take a few shortcuts in my passion to be heard,” says the liar, “My mistake, the mistake I truly regret, is that I had it on your show as journalism, and it’s not journalism. It’s theater.” Well, that’s what most journ0lism is these days.

WIND power – more accurately wind impotence, since turbines operate at just 24% of capacity – is the curse of Scotland. “…the bill for wind energy by 2020 will cost consumers £120 billion. Yet generating the same amount of electricity from efficient gas-powered stations would cost only £13bn.” Paying over 9 times more for something than necessary is a proposition only a liberal Democrat could love. Self-styled propeller-head Barack Obama is the real flat-earther when it comes to wind power, still clinging to archaic technologies that were obsoleted two centuries ago.

Obama’s campaign is watching you… they’ve “built a centralized digital database of information about millions of potential Obama voters.” Not unexpectedly, “He’s making these moves at the same moment his administration is pushing the virtues of online privacy, last month proposing a consumer bill of rights to protect it.” Do as Dear Leader Obama says, not as Dear Leader Obama does.
