Exciting and uplifting news from a college campus. Students at the University of Colorado blame Obama and/or Democrats for the government shutdown almost unanimously. Last count shown on the video is 13-1. John Galt lives out there in Colorado somewhere… and he must be giving some kickass speeches.

CBS actually notices! Praise be to heaven, what can it mean? The Communist Broadcasting System understands that Obamacare is a “disastrous” mess.

Map from 1418 shows Chinese in America 74 years before Columbus. And now they hold the mortgage on the place, confirming the ancient principle of “finders, keepers.”

ATF blocking publication of whistleblower’s Fast and Furious book. Not because it reveals classified information or compromises ongoing law enforcement proceedings. But rather because, “This would have a negative impact on morale in the Phoenix [Office] and would have a detrimental effect on our relationships with DEA and FBI.” In other words, ATF doesn’t want the embarrassment.

Barry the Hutt. Our crime boss in chief assumes time is on his side as he keeps sending taxpayer-paid thugs from the National Park Service to “make life as difficult for people as we can.”

WWII vets storm through another barrycade. Above is the barrycade erected by Obama at the U.S. Marine Corps War Memorial, commonly known as the Iwo Jima Memorial. Below is a photo of the WWII vets after they tore down the barrycade and entered anyway. Semper Fi, Marines, and thank you again.

Facebook chooses sides – joins the forces of tyranny. Remember those bikers headed to the WWII Memorial yesterday? Facebook “locked down some of [their] state group rooms” making it impossible to post updates. God forbid Americans be allowed to see what’s happening in Washington.

Bikers headed back to Washington. This time they’re headed for the barrycaded World War II Memorial. What’s that old Chinese curse? “May you live in interesting times?”

Obama closes church. If civilian priests try to conduct mass Sunday as unpaid volunteers, they will be arrested. But hey, don’t worry, the president’s favorite golf course at Andrews Air Force Base managed to stay open.

Obama closes the ocean.

“Just before the weekend, the National Park Service informed charter boat captains in Florida that the Florida Bay was “closed” due to the shutdown. Until government funding is restored, the fishing boats are prohibited from taking anglers into 1,100 square-miles of open ocean.”

Speaking of water, our president has gone off the deep end.

Duck Dynasty star says A&E editors cut out the name of Jesus… during the show’s prayer scene until he talked to them. Now they let Jesus stay. Phil Robertson calls it “spiritual warfare” and says they also add fake bleeps to imply the cast is cursing when they actually aren’t. Color us unsurprised by Hollywood’s perfidy.

Chris Matthews pens book about the 1980s – “when politics worked.” Somehow Matthews-the-author never noticed that his boss back then, Speaker of the House Tip O’Neill, shut down the government 12 times – 8 of those while Ronald Reagan was president. So basically every damn year.

Obama tries to shut down privately owned Mount Vernon. But the Mount Vernon Ladies’ Association, which owns the place and doesn’t receive any government funding, tore the barrycades down and remained open for business.

Obama closes privately-funded Claude Moore Colonial Farm. They’ve never been closed in previous shutdowns because, well, they don’t use federal money. “In all the years I have worked with the National Park Service… I have never worked with a more arrogant, arbitrary, and vindictive group representing the NPS,” said the small Virginia park’s managing director.

Belgium went without a government for 589 days. And everything went swimmingly. Maybe even better than otherwise. So don’t let the politicians in D.C. sell you any scare stories.

CBS warns viewers of 212 degree warming of air temperatures. Apparently CBS News thinks whatever the IPCC says is Gospel and apparently CBS reporter Ben Tracy has a brain the size of a peanut.

Bigfoot is real. A group of scientists is showing digital video of Sasquatch and claiming they have DNA analysis of hair, blood, skin, and other tissue which proves a close relative of humans is roaming the woods of North America… or a missing Robertson brother.

The other side of transgender . Belgian is euthanized after female-to-male sex change operation. Maybe, just maybe, gender is not the issue with these unhappy people:

“I was ready to celebrate my new birth. But when I looked in the mirror, I was disgusted with myself. My new breasts did not match my expectations and my new penis had symptoms of rejection. I do not want to be… a monster.”

Obama capriciously, callously, shabbily blocks World War II vets from visiting their memorial. The World War II Memorial is unmanned and therefore open to the public 24 hours a day. Barricading the memorial to stop a group of WWII vets who scheduled their trip a year in advance – actually requiring more government manpower to put up the barricades than to do nothing – was done for political reasons, not government shutdown reasons. If Barack Hussein Obama had done nothing else wrong during his time in office, this alone is grounds for impeachment.

MSNBC anchor tries to sign up for Obamacare – finally gives up. If the point Mara Schiavocampo was trying to make is that things are not as bad as those evil Tea Partiers are saying, this segment was an epic fail. Best quote: “I keep getting this error page.”

Obamacare will reduce the rate of cancer. Seems like good news, right? But wait, there’s a punch line. Turns out, bureaucrats will reduce cancer rates by simply reducing the number of cancer diagnoses they allow doctors to make. But hey, statistically it’s gonna look great!

Who would walk away from the planet’s richest gold deposit? Answer: Anglo American is abandoning its $541 million investment in Alaska’s Pebble Mine project because they don’t think the environmental whackos in this country – specifically Gina McCarthy, Obama’s new EPA Administrator – will ever give anybody permission to dig all that gold, copper, molybdenum, and palladium out of the ground.

It’s come to this – House members openly laughing at President Obama.

“They all tried to conceal their disappointment at not being able to see the clothes, and since nobody was willing to admit his own stupidity and incompetence, they all behaved as the two scoundrels had predicted.
A child, however, who had no important job and could only see things as his eyes showed them to him, went up to the carriage.
“The Emperor is naked,” he said.
“Fool!” his father reprimanded, running after him. “Don’t talk nonsense!” He grabbed his child and took him away. But the boy’s remark, which had been heard by the bystanders, was repeated over and over again until everyone cried:
“The boy is right! The Emperor is naked! It’s true!”

Brown University nudity week starts today! There will be naked yoga classes (participants only, no auditing), naked open mic night (bring your own disinfectant for the mic), and, of course (this being a liberal arts college), a naked panel discussion about race and class (not that anyone participating in a naked panel is likely to have any class).

Saudi sheikh says women shouldn’t drive because it damages their ovaries and pelvis. “‘Physiological science and functional medicine studied this [and found] that it automatically affects ovaries and rolls up the pelvis,” said the sheikh. This is two years after Saudi Arabia’s highest religious council issued a “scientific” report which claimed that letting women drive would “provoke a surge in prostitution, pornography, homosexuality and divorce.” Guess now we know why Saudi Arabia has never won a Nobel Prize… in any subject.
