Cuts to hours or jobs caused by the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. As of September 25, the list includes 313 employers.

Average measurements compared – US men a little chubby. Left to right you’re looking at average middle-aged men from the U.S., Japan, Netherlands, and France. Suggestion: to be more realistic, maybe a TV remote in the hand of the guy on the left and skid marks in the skivvies of the guy on the right?

CBS News buries its own poll about rising Tea Party popularity… while trumpeting misleading Gallup headline about declining Tea Party popularity. It’s almost like CBS News has an agenda.

Berkeley prof admits Hockey Stick was BS but insists Global Warming is real. So the main piece of evidence from the 2001 IPCC Third Assessment Report was baloney, but the brand new 2014 IPCC Fifth Assessment Report is pure gospel, just trust him.

President Obama took away Big Bird’s health insurance. Yep, and Bert & Ernie’s, too. Obamacare is even screwing up health care on Sesame Street.

Vatican says Pelosi must be denied Communion. Cardinal Raymond Burke, head of the highest court at the Vatican, said because of her “obstinate perseverance in manifest grave sin,” House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) must be denied Communion under the law of the Catholic Church. Nice to know the cardinals in Rome are reading JPAttitude.com.

The snub heard ’round the world. Three times yesterday Obama offered to hook up with Iranian President Hassan Rouhani for a historic handshake in front of cameras and three times Rouhani didn’t show. No word on whether the jilted Obama ripped off his prom dress and threw himself sobbing on the bed.

Yacht race for the ages. After getting penalized two races before the America’s Cup even started, the American team fell behind 8-1 in a contest that only requires 9 wins. Then they tweaked their boat, replaced the tactician, and reeled off 7 straight wins to set up this afternoon’s winner-take-all final. Anybody who hasn’t seen these wild-ass catamarans flying across San Francisco Bay at 50 Mph is really missing the boat (so to speak).

Largest food fraud in U.S. history. A lot of that honey you’ve been eating wasn’t really honey and the counterfeit stuff has been coming from China… of course.

Mickey brings the hammer down on disabled people. Because wealthy Manhattan moms were hiring “tour guides” to help them pretend to be disabled so they could skip to the front of lines, Disneyland and Disney World will no longer offer preferential line-cutting for disabled people.

Student suspended (possibly expelled) for shooting toy gun in his own yard. If Obama had a son (he’s even a leftie)…

White House celebrates Bisexual Visibility Day… with a roundtable discussion behind closed doors. Is it just us, or does this administration seem to be scripted by comedy writers?

90% of top newspapers leave “Muslim” and “Islam” out of Monday headlines… over front page stories about Muslim terrorists attacking a mall in Kenya and Muslim suicide bombers blowing up a Christian church in Pakistan. Apparently the religion of the perpetrators was deemed irrelevant… and let’s be honest, who knows more about irrelevant than newspapers?

Climate Week NYC celebrates “Ten Days of Climate Action.” Ten days in a week? No wonder climate alarmists get all the science wrong – they can’t count.

DC income versus the rest of us. Don’t worry about our rulers – they’re doing fine.

“Don’t ask, don’t tell” policy returns to U.S. Armed Forces. This time for Christians.

Romney family adopts baby who happens to be black… sending liberals into paroxysms of hate.

Obama calls Boehner to say he won’t negotiate on debt ceiling. We wonder how that conversation went…

“John, this is Barack Obama. I’m calling to tell you I won’t be negotiating with you on the debt ceiling.”
“So then, uh… why did you bother calling?”
“Well I’m just calling to tell you I won’t be calling.”
“But you already called, right? So this is like the red line in Syria all over again.”
“NO IT’S NOT! NO IT’S NOT!”
“Stop yelling or I’ll tell Putin.”

“All Muslims leave… we only want to kill non-Muslims!” Wake up world, Islam is a plague.

Venezuelan government takes over toilet paper factory. Yeah, like that’ll solve the shortage problem. Snicker. Maybe the commies figure if there’s one subject area where government has expertise and experience, it’s crap.

Benghazi Accountability Review Board head parsing words like he’s Bill Clinton. When our admirals sound like mealy-mouthed politicians, we’re in serious trouble. In testimony yesterday, Admiral Mike Mullen said Special Forces were not given a “stand-down order” during the Benghazi siege but they were told to “hold in place.”

California college bars student from handing out copies of Constitution. On Constitution Day. (Best thing about liberals is they write their own punch lines.)

Tunisian women waging sex jihad in Syria. They travel to Syria where they comfort Islamist fighters battling the regime by sleeping with 20 to 100 of them. Then they go home pregnant. It’s called “jihad al-nikah” (sexual holy war) by Muslims but we call it “the oldest profession in the world.”

New Jersey Supreme Court says judge can’t be stand-up comedian, too. The legal establishment thought the second job might “confuse the public and reflect badly on the judiciary.” Isn’t that cute? They think their reflection is good enough to worry about wrecking.

UN tells Canada to develop plan to stop violence against aboriginal women. Canada says, “Up yours, UN. We don’t take advice on human rights from places like Iran, Cuba, and Sri Lanka.” (Okay, okay, we’re paraphrasing.)
