The two lefty media icons stop just short of naming obnoxious Florida Alan Grayson “The One.” However, if they were to take it one step further and name him “Number Two,” we would have to agree.
Valarie Jarrett and David Axelrod have been busy doing Olympic-sized damage control for the Greatest President In History. Damage caused, unfortunately, when the President listened to their advice.
President Obama with David Axelrod and Valerie Jarrett. With friends like this who needs enemies?
Valarie Jarrett and David Axelrod have been busy doing Olympic-sized damage control for the Greatest President In History. Damage caused, unfortunately, when the President listened to their advice.
“The intelligence that we had from the U.S. Olympic Committee and Chicago bid team was that it was very close and therefore well worth our efforts,” said Valerie Jarrett, a senior White House adviser. “The message was that . . . a personal appeal from the president would make a huge difference.”
Does that mean if Obama had of skipped the trip that instead of coming in last we would have come in really, really last?
“Axelrod said, the president told his staff to send an advance team to Copenhagen just in case. “It was always in his mind that he wanted to go and would go,” Axelrod said. “But he needed to leave himself a little bit of room in case healthcare was on the floor.”
We’re sure Axelrod meant to say “or something may go wrong in Iran or Israel or Iraq or Afghanistan or North Korea.”
Mr. President, may we respectfully suggest that you run an ad on CraigsList.com. We’re pretty confident you can find some better advisors there than the ones you have now.
The Huffington Post is getting a little pissy about the “The Clare Boothe Luce Policy Institute” and its “Great American Conservative Women” 2010 calendar.
Helen Thomas, Miss November in the 2010 the Great American Liberal Women Calendar
The Huffington Post is getting a little pissy about the “The Clare Boothe Luce Policy Institute” and its “Great American Conservative Women” 2010 calendar.
That pissiness may result from the fact that when HuffPo announced that it was going to respond with its own “Great American Liberal Women Calendar,” the Institute posted the following message on its Facebook site:
“The Huffington Post is trying to make a Great American LIBERAL women calendar.” This might be difficult considering that their women look like men *cough* Rachel Maddow* cough*.
The conservative calendar features the likes of Michelle Malkin, Anne Coulter and Carrie Prejean. All excellent choices.
Rumor has it that HuffPo’s calendar will feature liberal lovelies like Rachel Maddow, Nancy Pelosi and Helen Thomas.
Kevin Jennings, Obama’s Safe Schools Czar, heaped praise on Harry Hay, the founder of NAMBLA (the National Man/Boy Love Association). He also declined to report a statutory rape to authorities.
Slimier and slimier.

Is poor judgment to blame? No. Temporary insanity? No. White house Press Secretary Robert Gibbs says the latest White House scandal is the fault of…get ready…here it comes…Fox News.
“Its a shame,” Gibbs said with despair. “I hope people watch what they (FOX News) do.”
For once, Mr. Gibbs, we agree with you. It’ll be a pity if people don’t watch Fox News coverage of this story.
We regret being the bearers of bad news. Michael Moore’s latest “documentary” died a quick, but painful death this weekend. Virtually no one was with it when it expired.

Total box office take for Capitalism’s opening Friday, Saturday and Sunday was a mere $4,850,000. That puts it in seventh place for the weekend, nestled between a movie called “Whip It” in sixth place and the latest remake of “Fame” in eighth. It was the fat filmmaker’s worst opening since 2002’s Bowling for Columbine.
By way of comparison, a comedy-horror film called “Zombieland” ended up in the top position with $25,000,000.
One of the beauties of capitalism (with a lower case “c”) is that people have the right to reject Capitalism (with a capital “C”). And they did.
One delegate hinted that President Obama may have lost the crowd when he focused his speech to the International Olympic Committee on his favorite subject – himself.

“You see, growing up, my family moved around a lot,” he said. “I grew up in Hawaii, I lived in Indonesia for a time. I never really had roots in any one place or culture or ethnic group. Then I came to Chicago. And on those Chicago streets, I worked alongside men and women who were black and white, Latino and Asian, people of every class and nationality and religion.”
George Will agreed with the unnamed delegate. As he said on ABC’s This Week:
“What’s alarming is whether it indicates a belief on the part of the President which is that there is no problem that will not melt before the sunshine of his charm. And this is evidence again that it’s not so. The President and First Lady went to Copenhagen and gave little speeches about themselves. She, Mrs. Obama, used the first-person singular pronoun in some form or another, “I” or “me”, sixteen, 34 times in sixteen paragraphs. He used it 23 times in thirteen paragraphs. It was all about them, and the danger is an adjective sooner or later attaches to presidents. Honest Abe, Tricky Dick Nixon. All kinds of adjectives. The danger to the President is that Vain is going to attach to him.”
The Olympic Committee should consider itself damn lucky he didn’t attempt to lead them in a rousing chorus of, “Mmmm, Mmmm, Mmmm, Barack Hussein Obama.”
Can’t disagree with ABC’s Cokie Roberts when she says, “He raped and drugged and raped and sodomized a child.” Also can’t disagree when she says, ”Just take him out and shoot him.”

But, Cokie, dear, this is no way to ingratiate yourself with network television executives.
We rarely make fun of BET. So in order to right that wrong, or wrong that right, here is BET Co-Founder Sheila Johnson making fun of Democrat Creigh Deeds’ speech impediment.

Interestingly, Huffington Post headlines the story, “Creigh Deeds’s Stutter Mocked by Prominent Endorser of GOP Candidate in Virginia Gubernatorial Race.”
Our headline is far more accurate. In fact, on the day Johnson endorsed Republican candidate Bob McDonnell, she said that she is a proud Democrat who is crossing party lines only because McDonnell is the better candiate.
But the Huffington Post never let facts get in the way of a good story.
You’ll find hundreds of names on Hollywood’s pro-Polanski petition. Here are the names and why it seems a bit eerie that they should support a man convicted of drugging and raping a child.
Is anyone surprised that Woody Allen, seen here with his wife and stepdaughter, supports Roman Polansky
You’ll find hundreds of names on Hollywood’s pro-Polanski petition. But to be honest, there are very few “Hollywood” names on the list and a ton of European names on the list. Lots of guys you’ve never heard of named Luc and Jean-Jacques and Lucien and Guillermo.
That being said, several Hollywood names stand out. Here are the names and why it seems a bit eerie (a polite way of saying “sick”) that they should support a man convicted of drugging and raping a child.
Woody Allen – Actor/writer/director and legendary lecher who married his own adopted stepdaughter.
Buck Henry – Writer/actor who played Uncle Roy, the perverted babysitter on Saturday Night Live. He also wrote “Candy,” a film that imdb.com describes with these words, “Candy Christian is an innocent young girl when she first hears McPhisto, an alcoholic Welsh poet, talk of love and self-sacrifice. Candy narrowly escapes McPhisto’s attempt to rape her, only to succumb to her father’s Mexican gardener, Emmanuel.” And it goes downhill from there. Henry also wrote “The Graduate,” a film in which an older woman seduces a naïve college-aged boy.
Jeremy Irons – Actor who starred in a remake of Lolita. imdb.com’s plot synopsis says, “Humbert Humbert, a British professor coming to the US to teach, rents a room in Charlotte Haze’s house, but only after he sees her 14-year-old daughter, Dolores (Lolita), to whom he is immediately attracted. Though he hates the mother, he marries her as this is the only way to be close to the girl….”
Sam Mendes – Directed “American Beauty.” The imdb.com synopsis says, “Lester Burnham is in a mid-life crisis, caused by his stressed wife Carolyn and rebelling teenage daughter Jane. When Lester and Carolyn go watch Jane cheerleading, they meet Angela Hayes, and Lester, caught in sudden lust for Angela, decides to change his life.”
Mike Nichols – Writer/director who directed “The Graduate.” imdb.com’s synopsis of the film says, “Recent college graduate Benjamin Braddock is trapped into an affair with Mrs. Robinson, who happens to be the wife of his father’s business partner and then finds himself falling in love with her teenage daughter…”
We can’t help but remember the words of our mother: “A man is judged by the company he keeps.”
Oh, you’re going to love Valerie Jarrett’s excuse for Obama’s Olympic failure: “The intelligence that we had from the U.S. Olympic Committee and Chicago bid team was that it was very close and therefore well worth our efforts…”
In this case, the term "faulty intelligence" does not refer to Joe Biden.
Oh, you’re going to love Valerie Jarrett’s excuse for Obama’s Olympic failure:
“‘The intelligence that we had from the U.S. Olympic Committee and Chicago bid team was that it was very close and therefore well worth our efforts,’ said Valerie Jarrett, a senior White House advisor. ‘The message was that … a personal appeal from the president would make a huge difference.’”
Did she just say they had faulty intelligence? Isn’t that what got us into Iraq?
“Obama lied, Chicago died.” Somebody get the bumper stickers ready.
It’s pretty obvious by now that the President isn’t going in the same direction as the rest of the country. But now he’s not even going in the same direction as his teleprompter.

Perhaps he was confused by the thunderous applause at a meeting of the Congressional Black Caucus. Or perhaps he just can’t help himself from moving to the left.
Simply stated, you won’t believe your eyes. Even if you’re not a baseball fan you’ll be amazed. It is, without a doubt, the most remarkably accurate prediction in the history of sports.
Rachel Maddow has been on the air since last September and this is the first thing she’s ever aired that was worth watching.

Non-conformity used to mean something. Now, non-conformity means conforming to a rigid set of progressive and often contradictory rules that govern non-conformity.
Harry Aleo, San Francisco conservative, is gone but not forgotten.

Now, non-conformity means conforming to a rigid set of progressive and often contradictory rules that govern non-conformity.
Be anti-tobacco, but pro-pot. Anti-war, unless it’s a communist or anti-Western insurgency. Protest against the execution of murderers and for abortions. Star in violent movies, but favor gun control.
The home base of this non-conformist conforming is San Francisco, a city that just lost its only remaining true non-conformist.
His name was Harry Aleo. His real estate business–called Twin Peaks Properties –added a dose of reality to the hippie fantasy world of free lunches, free love, high people and infinitely high taxes.
Harry passed away and now a museum in San Francisco wants to hold an exhibit of some of the signs and banners Harry proudly displayed in his office window. For example, they want to preserve a cardboard sign Aleo scribbled and propped up in the window of his office announcing that it was “an island of traditional conservative values in a sea of latte sipping liberal loonies.”
Many conservatives will look on the exhibit as a sign that San Fran may at least respect dissenting opinions. We think it’s more likely that they’re just after some grant money in an ironic attempt to extort more money from the public coffers.
Jack Kelly of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports that French President Nicolas Sarkozy is not a member of the Obama Cult.

“And they both say that Sarkozy thinks that President Obama is incredibly naive and grossly egotistical,” Kelly says, “so egotistical that no one can dent his naïveté.”
Rod Blagojevich, the thoroughly-corrupt and thoroughly-disgraced former governor of Illinois, is making the rounds with a new book. Jon Stewart was one of the few TV hosts willing to book him.
Rod Blagojevich, the thoroughly-corrupt and thoroughly-disgraced former governor of Illinois, is making the rounds with a new book. Jon Stewart was one of the few TV hosts willing to book him.
Blago, exhibiting the boyish charm that got him elected, contends that prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald has been very selective in releasing edited snippets of his taped conversations. He says he will be fully vindicated when the complete tapes are released.
“Let’s hear the tapes,” Blago said. “Release the tapes. Tell the prosecutor to stop holding those tapes hostage.”
Somebody is corrupt here. It’s either Blagojevich or Fitzgerald. Maybe both.
Chicago lost? After the President, the First Lady and Oprah Winfrey endorsed the city? There’s only one answer. The International Olympic Committee is raaaaacist!

So, Dave Letterman has his very own sex scandal and blackmail. Well, he’s got no problem laughing about the sex scandals of others. Here are his Top 10 hypocritical lines aboutother people’s sex scandals.
Sex scandals are a lot funnier when they don't involve you.
10. “Gov. Mark Sanford disappeared…and it turned out he was in South America. And then it turned out he was down there because he was sleeping with a woman from Argentina. Once again, foreigners taking jobs that Americans won’t do.”
9. “Ladies and gentlemen, here is great news. Senator Larry Craig from Idaho … is looking for interns. What parent doesn’t want to hear, ‘Well guess what, Dad, I got accepted into Larry Craig’s intern program’? But if you’re interested, Larry Craig is now accepting applications from interns. Just slide your resume under the stall.”
8. “But did you hear about this? Senator Craig from Idaho plans to fight a disorderly conduct charge. He wants to change his plea to ‘not creepy.’ … Earlier today Senator Craig said he’d like to turn over a new page. I believe his name is Kevin.”
7. “There’s another scandal in Washington. One of the senator’s from Idaho, Larry Craig, was arrested in airport men’s room. Gives new meaning to the word caucusing.’”
Obama won’t rest until every American has a job. Except for his weekly golf. And all vacations. And trips to the burger joint with Joe. And TV interviews.
“We’re putting Americans back to work doing the work that America needs done,” the President said in a speech to the Democratic Governors Association, “Rebuilding roads, bridges, uhh, and new schools, and all manner of construction projects across all 50 states. I’m not going to rest. I know the governors and candidates here are not going to rest, and I know that the American people are not going to rest until everybody who’s looking for work can find a job.”
And then President Empty Suit flew off to Copenhagen while the unemployment rate rose to 9.8%.
MSNBC executives must be sweating bullets. Last quarter was a for the also-ran lefty network, and last week was even worse.
Why is this man smiling? He must not have seen last week's ratings.
MSNBC executives must be sweating bullets. Last quarter was a ratings disaster for the also-ran lefty network, and last week was even worse.
For the first time since her premiere last September, Rachel Maddow failed to top 1,000,000 viewers all five nights of the week.
And Ed Schultz. Poor Ed Schultz. After his disappointing premiere back in April, networks executives reassured worried advertisers that his ratings would grow. In reality, they’ve actually become more abysmal. Last week the bombastic buffoon’s total audience fell under 500,000 viewers three of the five nights.
Maddow has a bit of an excuse because Keith Olbermann wasn’t around as a lead-in to her show. But she’s been able to top that magic million mark during previous Olbermann absences.
Meanwhile, O’Reilly, Hannity and Beck have turned Fox News into the 1927 Yankees of cable news.
That sound you hear is the gnashing of teeth emanating from MSNBC’s executive suites.
Michelle Obama fanatical fans are apparently unfamiliar with Carla Bruni-Sarkozy, First Lady of France, heiress, former model, and now, it turns out, an excellent singer.
You may find this hard to believe, but there are websites devoted (and we mean devoted) to Michelle Obama. They think she is the most glamorous, most beautiful, most intelligent and most stylish woman in the world. Seriously.
They are wrong.
Apparently, they are unfamiliar with Carla Bruni-Sarkozy, First Lady of France, heiress, former model, and now, it turns out, an excellent singer. And as a bonus, she’s not built like an NFL linebacker.
