Joe Biden told the troops in Iraq, “As corny as it sounds,” he said, “Damn, I’m proud to be an American!”
Joe Biden spoke at a naturalization ceremony in Bagdad on July 4
OK, Joe actually said this on July 4th, but it was a holiday weekend and we were busy gorging ourselves on hot dogs at our neighbors’ Independence Day barbeque and just got to this story. But in our defense, it doesn’t really matter when Joe said it because any day is a good day for a bon mot du Joe.
Biden stopped in at a ceremony at Camp Victory in Baghdad where 237 U.S. servicemen and women from 59 countries were proudly being sworn in as new American citizens.
Can you imagine what a thrilling, emotional moment that must have been for those brave men and women?
That’s when Joe Biden, the Vice President of United States of America, got up to add a few special words to the occasion.
“As corny as it sounds,” he said, “Damn, I’m proud to be an American!”
BigHollywood.com summed it up perfectly:
If there’s one person, in one scenario, who should never, ever feel that it’s corny to be proud to be an American, it would be:
• The Vice President of the United States.
• Surrounded by hundreds of U.S. servicemen and women.
• Who have just become U.S. citizens.
• In a war zone.
• On Independence Day.
• You stupid moron, you.
Craigslist replaces “erotic” ads with “adult” ads. Who can tell the difference?
Let's get those prostitutes off Craigslist and back on the street where the belong
Craigslist, the hugely successful classified advertising website, announced last month that it no longer offer “Erotic Services” advertising after critics said it was nothing more than a forum for prostitution.
Instead of finding their prostitutes in the “Erotic Service” section, Craigslist customers will have to figure out that they are now found in the “Adult Services” category.
Jim Buckmaster, chief of Craigslist, says they’re banning sexually explicit images (replaced with merely sexually stimulating images) and offers of sex for money. And he really means it, damn it. Oh, and to prove how serious they are, they’re going to double the cost of an ad from $5 to $10.
In order to hone our investigative reportage skills, we went to our local craigslist, clicked on “adult services” and then on “women looking for men” and here are a few of the “non-prostitution” ads we found this weekend:

New York Congressman Peter King isn’t shy about saying exactly what’s on his mind. In this case, he’s telling the media to stop the coverage of what Michael jackson, whom he calls a child molester, pervert, and pedophile.

We would never run a video with the language in this video, but creator Jon Lajoie nails the media’s disgust for, and then after his death, love for, Michael Jackson. if you can take objectionable language, it’s a must hear.
Normally, we wouldn’t run a video with the language contained in this music video. But creator Jon Lajoie nails the media’s disgust for, and then after his death, love for, Michael Jackson. If you can take objectionable language, it’s a must hear for anyone who is sick of the media coverage his death and funeral are receiving.
To give you an idea of the content, here is the chorus (he is speaking to the media):
Michael Jackson is dead, don’t pretend you give a sh*t,
you motherf***ing hypocrites, don’t forget what you said he did.
Michael Jackson is dead, no, you never gave a sh*t,
So why are you pretending, you motherf***ing hypocrites?
EXTREME WARNING: This video has very offensive language and subject matter. Do not watch if this will bother you.
The highlight of President Obama’s town hall meeting in Annandale, Virginia was when he called on Debby Smith, a cancer victim whose voice cracked and tears flowed as she told the President about her struggle with unemployment and lack of insurance.
The highlight of President Obama’s town hall meeting in Annandale, Virginia was when he called on Debby Smith, a cancer victim whose voice cracked and tears flowed as she told the President about her struggle with unemployment and lack of insurance.
The President called her forward, gave her a big ol’ bear hug and said he’d have his people look into it. It was a warm, tender moment except for one thing:
Debby Smith is actually an Obama campaign worker who had been surreptitiously planted in the audience. She’s a volunteer for a wing of the Democratic National Committee. She also works for the Virginia Organizing Project, which has been hyping health care forums around the state. A December news report revealed that Smith moderated a “a community discussion on health care issues” in Appalachia, Virginia and told her local paper that the meeting ‘would be reported back to former Sen. Tom Daschle, who has been directed by President Elect Barack Obama to form a committee to report on health care issues.’”
So how much help can Smith expect now that the President has told his people “to look into it”? Not much if recent history is any guide.
You may remember the name Henrietta Hughes. Her 15-minutes of fame began during the campaign when Obama called on her during another town hall meeting in Fort Myers, Florida.
Here’s how HuffingtonPost.com reported it:
One questioner in particular brought to life the dire situation. “I have an urgent need,” she said, revealing that her family was homeless and needed a place to live. Obama asked for her name — Henrietta Hughes — and told her, “We’re gonna do everything we can to help you…I’ll have my staff talk to you after the town hall.”
Apparently, talk is all she got from Obama’s staff. The HuffPo story continues:
…she did get the loan of a house owned by Representative Nick Thompson (a Republican), whose generosity was widely applauded. However, as soon as the house sells, Henrietta and her son may be out on the streets again. And lack of affordable housing is one of the major factors in homelessness.
Henrietta has actually received some help from homeless service organizations and some career help from the Career Center in Fort Myers. A few days ago, WINK News in Fort Myers did a follow up story on Henrietta. Not surprisingly, but still sad, is the fact that Henrietta still has no job and is running out of options. She has been taking computer classes, along with her adult son Corey, in the hope that they would be more qualified, but they are both in a job market that is likely filled with other applicants.
Bottom line: Barack Obama talks real pretty when the cameras are on, but doesn’t deliver. The only real help Henrietta Hughes received came from a Republican. She got nothing from the President but empty promises and that’s exactly what Debby Smith should expect, too.
But to end on a positive note, at least he treats us all equally.
Yes, we hate the media. And no part of the media works up our ire more than that vaunted bastion of liberalism, The New York Times.
It's always party time at the New York Times - Democratic party time.
Yes, we hate the media. And no part of the media works up our ire more than that vaunted bastion of liberalism, The New York Times.
You’ll see what we mean when you compare these excerpts from New York Times editorials about two different 5-4 Supreme Court decisions.
First is the except from Ricci v DeStefano, the recent firemen discrimination case:
The case is already being used as ammunition against Judge Sonia Sotomayor, President Obama’s nominee to the Supreme Court, who sided with New Haven at the appeals court level. If the Monday ruling says anything about Judge Sotomayor, however, it underscores the reasonableness of her views…Four of the nine justices–including David Souter, whose seat Judge Sotomayor would take–agreed with the result she reached.
Now here’s what the Times said about another 5-4 decision in a case called Boumediene v Bush:
On Thursday, the court turned back the most recent effort to subvert justice with a stirring defense of habeas corpus, the right of anyone being held by the government to challenge his confinement before a judge.
The court ruled that the detainees being held in Guantánamo Bay, Cuba, have that cherished right, and that the process for them to challenge their confinement is inadequate. It was a very good day for people who value freedom and abhor Mr. Bush’s attempts to turn Guantánamo Bay into a constitutional-rights-free zone. . . .
It was disturbing that four justices dissented from this eminently reasonable decision.
So is dissent is good or bad? Or is it only good when it comes from liberals and only bad when it comes from conservatives?
We’re so confused. Or maybe it would be more accurate to say the Times is confused.
2003: Democrats insist Medicare can’t be cut. Democrats insist Medicare must be cut.
When that cold-hearted son of a bitch George Bush wanted to make relatively modest cuts in Medicare, Democrats had a hissy fit. They said he was trying to to kill old people.
Now that The Greatest President In the History of The Universe wants to cut $622 billion from Medicare and Medicaid, Republicans are still cold-hearted sons a bitches. But now it’s for some reason we really can’t fathom.

Angela Merkel is playing President Obama like a fiddle. Germany has said, “Sure, we’ll take Gitmo detainees, but only if they have some ‘connection’ to Germany.”
al-Qaeda terrorists will be trading in their suicide vests for lederhosen if President Obama has his way.
Angela Merkel is playing President Obama like a fiddle. Germany has said, “Sure, we’ll take Gitmo detainees, but only if they have some ‘connection’ to Germany.”
So in an effort to get Germany to play along, the Obama administration has come up with almost laughable “connections” for two of the detainees. No, we take that back. They are laughable.
One of the detainees is a Tunisian who applied for asylum in Germany after entering the country illegally in 1996. He lived in Frankfurt and was known to the local police as a drug-dealer and petty criminal. He left Germany for Pakistan in 1999 just as German authorities were ready to give him the boot.
The second detainee is a Syrian who appeared in an al-Qaeda video in 2001 and announced that he was a candidate for “martyrdom.” No one outside the Obama administration can quite figure out what this model citizen’s connection to Germany might be other than the his own statement that he once sought asylum at the German Embassy in the United Arab Emirates.
C’mon, President Obama, you can do better than that. Surely, these guys have eaten at Wienerschnitzel. Or celebrated Octoberfest. Or chugged a Heineken. Or watched Patton. Or spent a wild weekend wearing leather lederhosen.
Hell, any of those would be closer connections to Germany than you guys conjured up.
New-vehicle sales in June fell 28% from a year earlier to 860,000 cars and light trucks
Great news!!! Car sales are only down 28% this month!!!
Great news from Detroit. The recession is over. Cars are going to start flying off the lot any day now. At least that’s what the big three carmakers are saying and the media is reporting.
The three biggest carmakers in America called a bottom to the long decline in U.S. auto sales as the industry reported its smallest monthly sales drop this year.
Just one thing. Don’t break out the champagne and confetti yet. Things aren’t as rosy as Detroit would have you believe. Get a little deeper into the story and you discover the truth:
New-vehicle sales in June fell 28% from a year earlier to 860,000 cars and light trucks, according to the market-research firm Autodata Corp. That would be the smallest decline in any month this year.
In similar news, the Japanese government announced that Hiroshima was actually an indication that they won World War II.
Only about 100 people showed up to hear Biden’s self-aggrandizing speech on the wonders of stimulus money.
The Vice President was greeted by his adoring fans
Poor Joe Biden. The garrulous veep traveled to a small town in Pennsylvania a few days ago to tell the bumpkins about the glories of federal stimulus money. He wanted the good folks in Erie to know that the Obama administration is bringing broadband internet access to rural America.
Apparently, no one cared.
Only about 100 people showed up to hear Biden’s self-aggrandizing speech. The room looked empty. So empty, in fact, that volunteers quickly began removing chairs in a futile attempt to make it look like a full house.
This gives a whole new meaning to the phrase “moving the deck chairs on the Titanic.”
This tape, uncovered by the UK’s News of the World, shows Jackson being grilled by attorneys about child abuse allegations.
Yeah, we know we’re supposed to show respect for the dead, but that doesn’t change the fact that Michael Jackson always creeped us out.
This tape, uncovered by the UK’s News of the World, shows Jackson being grilled by attorneys about child abuse allegations.
The never-before-made-public video was recorded in 1996 after employees at Neverland Ranch sued Jackson. The unseen attorney questions Jackson about his relationship with several young boys – including Jordy Chandler, Mcauley Culkin, and Brett Barnes. Jackson responds by squirming in his seat, laughing nervously, groaning and burying his face in his hands.
It’s not known if attorneys for Bubbles the chimpanzee were given an opportunity to question Jackson.
You know there’s a problem when al Jazeera runs an opinion piece that criticizes President Obama’s weak-kneed support for Iranian democracy.
You know the world has gone insane when al Jazeera shows more support for democracy than the President of the United States does.
You know there’s a problem when al Jazeera runs an opinion piece that criticizes President Obama’s weak-kneed support for Iranian democracy.
Here are a few of the Arabic news service’s pithier comments:
Zinger #1: “It took two weeks of intensified government repression against protesters in Iran before Barack Obama, the US president, moved from cautious commentary to describing the crackdown as ‘violent and unjust.’”
Zinger #2: “Obama is acutely aware of the real reason why he cannot be too forceful in supporting the millions of Iranians demanding to have their votes counted. The problem is not with US administrations long past, but with the policies of the current administration.”
Zinger #3: “The substance of Obama’s foreign policies in the Middle East and North Africa remain in many key areas strikingly similar to, and are in some cases more aggressive than, those of George Bush, his predecessor.”
Zinger #4: “Does Obama really not understand that Mubarak’s interest is not in peace, but rather in an unending peace process that ensures his continued relevance and billions of dollars in no-strings-attached American aid?”
Zinger #5: “Ultimately, it is the reality of the Obama administration’s support for a discredited status quo across the region, and not the actions of the Eisenhower administration half a century ago, that makes it impossible for the US to play a forceful role advocating for democracy in Iran at this crucial moment in the history of the Islamic Republic, and ours as well.”
The Emperor has no clothes. But as far as his acolytes are concerned, that just highlights his well-toned pecs.
Lahoma Sue Smith, an Oklahoma City prostitute, pleaded no contest after being accused of trading her…uhhh…services for a box of Frito-Lay chips. She was fined $1,142.
As Lahoma Sue Smith told her customer, "No chips, no dip."
What the hell is going on in the nation’s heartland?
Lahoma Sue Smith, an Oklahoma City prostitute, pleaded no contest after being accused of trading her…uhhh…services for a box of chips. She was fined $1,142.
Police report that undercover officers saw Smith “trying to catch a date” by flashing her headlights. (We will pause now while you make your own joke about a prostitute “flashing her headlights.”) When they approached Smith’s car, her blouse was open and a man was pulling his pants up in the passenger seat.
The man told Smith he was looking for company but had no money. He must have caught her in a generous mood, because she agreed to trade sex for the $30 case of Frito-Lay chips she noticed in his back seat. (We will now pause again while you make your own joke about the name Frito-Lay and prostitution.)
When police asked Smith if she had ever been arrested for prostitution, she said, “Yes. Two or three times.”
We assume the attached photo of Smith doesn’t do her justice. Because she’s obviously all that and a bag of chips.
School District honcho Ramon Cortines is outraged by photos of pseudo gay fashion icon Sacha Cohen “Bruno” taken with football players at LA’s Birmingham High School.
Bruno isn't half as fraudulent as LA School Superintendent Ramon Cortines
School District honcho Ramon Cortines is outraged by photos of pseudo gay fashion icon “Bruno” taken with football players at LA’s Birmingham High School.
Cortines howls that the district has “allowed our students to be used.”
We’d salute his efforts to protect the city’s children. Except for one thing: It’s nothing but phony showboating.
In reality, Cortines seems far more worried about students being used by comic predator Cohen in a Hollywood photo shoot than about students being used by real predators in the city’s classrooms.
A recent Los Angeles Times report concluded, “Repeatedly, the district failed to follow up on sexual misconduct complaints against employees once police or prosecutors dropped criminal actions. Some ended up at new schools. In at least one instance…the new principal had no idea of his history.”
Molesting your young students? No problem. Sexually involved with your older students? No problem. But shooting some funny photos with an actor? That’s a problem.
It’s not easy to be this stupid. Cortines must be a graduate of the Los Angeles Unified School District.
Looks like we were right to be concerned that the House of Representatives’ apology for slavery was just a prelude to reparations demanded by Congressional Black Caucus.
Congressional Black Caucus being abused by evil Republican slave master John Boehner
Looks like we were right to be concerned that the House of Representatives’ apology for slavery was just a prelude to reparations.
Otherwise, it’s difficult to explain black House Democrats’ reaction to a “no reparations” disclaimer inserted in the Senate version of the apology.
The Senate disclaimer says: “Nothing in this resolution (A) authorizes or supports any claim against the United States or (B) serves as a settlement of any claim against the United States.”
Those simple words have angered members of the Congressional Black Caucus.
“I would not want to have any language in place that would deny anyone, any citizen, the right to address a grievance,” said wacko Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, a Texas Democrat.
“I feel that some method other than just an apology should be made. People should be made whole,” Rep. Bennie Thompson, D-Miss., said.
To that we say, “Shut the hell up, Sheila. Close your pie hole, Bennie.”
Uh-oh. Have we gone too far? In that case, we would like to issue an apology for the previous paragraph. But no reparations.
President Obama called California’s “energy-efficiency policies” an example for the rest of the nation. Not a good example actually.
The President says California has a brilliant energy policy that should be emulated by the rest of the country.
President Obama must be a Michael Jackson fan. Because when he talks about California’s energy policy, he’s definitely in Neverland.
Yesterday the President called California’s “energy-efficiency policies” an example for the rest of the nation and noted that “Californians consume 40 percent less energy per person than the national average.”
Harvard’s Edward Glaeser logically points out that California’s temperate climate has far more impact on the state’s low energy consumption than the state’s draconian energy policies.
“January temperature does a terrific job of explaining carbon emissions from home heating and July temperature does almost as well at explaining electricity usage,” Glaeser noted. “California has the most temperate climate in the country and as a result, homes use less heat in the winter and less electricity in the summer. In hot, humid Houston or frigid Minneapolis, people use plenty of energy to artificially recreate what California has naturally.”
According to the President’s illogical spin, California’s lack of power plants is another sign of its success. But in reality, California uses 20% more electricity than it generates and is forced to import power from neighboring states that aren’t crippled by California’s overly-strict environmental regulations.
The President may have been completely wrong about California, but at least he’s consistent. He’s wrong about the other 56 states, too.
So-called Town Hall meetings have always been a farce. Same with Obama’s idea of “transparency.” Now reporters are even starting to complain.
So-called Town Hall meetings have always been a farce. Same with Obama’s idea of “transparency.” Now reporters are even starting to complain.
Absent the pretense of a campaign “debate” platform, Town Hall meetings are now merely infomercials. Pure propaganda. Filled with hack partisan activists and axe-grinders who have nothing better to do than ask pre-approved questions. Unless it’s your job to report on these charades, you shouldn’t be watching them.
But it seems the media lapdogs are growing restless. Some in the White House press corps are no longer content to be the Obama administration’s public relations pep squad.
Helen Thomas has covered every president since Lincoln, er… Kennedy. Anyway, she’s old enough to know better and to resent the spoon-feeding. We don’t agree with Thomas on muchof anything, but we can’t help but cheer for her in this video. Watch as she teams up with CBS’ Chip Reid to confront smarmy spokes-tool Robert Gibbs about the White House’s manipulative question-planting techniques and his insulting non-answers.
Then imagine the outcry if the Bush team had been as “transparent” as this bunch.
President Obama called on three complete strangers at his healthcare town hall forum. Not so random though.
The next question will come from that complete stranger in the second row."
President Obama called on three complete strangers at his healthcare town hall forum get-together and ice cream social, three random Americans who just happened to be in the neighborhood.
As the Washington Post reports, “The president called randomly on three audience members. All turned out to be members of groups with close ties to his administration: the Service Employees International Union, Health Care for America Now, and Organizing for America, which is a part of the Democratic National Committee. White House officials said that was a coincidence.”
Yup. A whole roomful of people showed up and our Fearless Leader coincidentally calls on three who just happen to be members of organizations that back his healthcare legistlation.
That’s not a coincidence, it’s a friggin’ miracle. What are the odds? No wonder this guy wanted to speak at Harry Reid’s fundraiser in Las Vegas. Let it ride, baby. When you’re hot, you’re hot. Baby needs a new pair of shoes.
Either that or the whole damn thing was as pre-planned as a White House press conference.
A University of Michigan study says love stories told in G-rated children’s films (such as Disney’s Little Mermaid) are responsible for what they label “heteronormativity.” Real world translation: Not enough gay sex.
Perhaps the researchers be happier if kids movies had a little inter-species lesbian sex
Hold onto your hats. You’re not going to believe this one.
A University of Michigan study says love stories told in G-rated children’s films (such as Disney’s Little Mermaid) are responsible for what they label “heteronormativity.”
Real world translation: Not enough gay sex.
“Despite the assumption that children’s media are free of sexual content, our analyses suggest that these media depict a rich and pervasive heterosexual landscape,” said a report in Gender & Society, a publication of the Sociologists for Women in Society.
Researchers looked at the most successful G-rated movies between 1990-2005 and concluded that kids’ films “construct heterosexuality” via “depictions of hetero-romantic love as exceptional, powerful, transformative, and magical,” and “depictions of interactions between gendered bodies in which the sexiness of feminine characters is subjected to the gaze of masculine characters.”
“Characters in love are surrounded by music, flowers, candles, magic, fire, balloons, fancy dresses, dim lights, dancing and elaborate dinners,” the report noted. “Fireflies, butterflies, sunsets, wind and the beauty and power of nature often provide the setting for – and a link to the naturalness of – hetero-romantic love.”
We say, bravo, you brave researchers. That’s what’s wrong with America’s kids. They need more gay sex in their cartoons! More group sex! More bestiality!
And for god’s sake, man, somebody put some pants on that perverted Donald Duck.
Once again, Joe Biden has made a gaffe, this time telling the crowd hat “the Buick LeSabre is made in Ontario, Canada,” and that “the UAW worker in Canada makes the same wage as the UAW worker in the U.S.”
Yeah, that's how we all feel when Biden speaks
President Obama may need to appoint a Biden Speech Czar just to keep an eye on the vexing Vice President.
Biden was appearing at a town hall meeting in the lovely city of Perrysburg, Ohio. The subject was “the middle class and manufacturing” but the veep veered off into unexplored and unexplained territory.
He blithely informed told the assembled crowd that “the Buick LeSabre is made in Ontario, Canada,” and that “the UAW worker in Canada makes the same wage as the UAW worker in the U.S.”
He was trying to make the point that the Canadian-made LeSebre cost 14% less to build because of that country’s socialist healthcare system.
But as we’ve all learned, Biden just makes crap up as he goes along.
In reality, they haven’t built the LeSabre since 2005. It was actually manufactured in the United States, not Canada. And to complete the Biden trifecta, Canadian Auto Workers split from the UAW and became an independent union way back in 1985.
Overall, it was a fine speech. Other than the everything-he-said-was-wrong part.
Jesse Jackson offers up an inspirational message for Michael Jackson’s fans.
Don’t ask us to explain this video.
As far as we can tell, some guy named Raffle van Exel grabbed Jesse Jackson as he was walking through an airport and asked him to offer up an inspirational message for Michael Jackson’s fans.
Reverend Jackson, of course, has never met a microphone he didn’t like, so he started jabbering away.
We just have three questions about the Reverend’s comments:
Question #1: What’s this “dignity” he attributes to Michael Jackson? The guy’s date at the Grammy Awards was a chimpanzee named Bubbles.
Question #2: When did “decency” become an acronym for child molester?
Question #3: Is it our imagination or is Jesse’s speech pattern starting to sound like he’s reading Dr. Seuss?
