An idiot imam tells Muslims to boycott Pepsi because its name is really an acronym that stands for “Pay Every Penny Saving Israel.”
These are tough times in the soft drink wars. Last week Hugo Chavez banned Coke Zero in Venezuela. This week, an idiot imam tells Muslims to boycott Pepsi because its name is really an acronym that stands for “Pay Every Penny Saving Israel.”
Next week’s headline: Pope condemns Mountain Dew.
This clip teaches us two things: Brigadier General Michael Walsh is an officer and a gentleman. And Barbara Boxer is a grouchy old bitch senator.

This is how advertising copywriters get fired. What they meant to say was, “Puncture wrapper before microwaving.”

Al Gore says the science is settled. Now let’s see if the lawsuit is settled.
John Coleman, founder of the Weather Channel, has put together a coalition of more than 30,000 scientists who don’t buying Gore’s global warming baloney.
Gore won’t debate the issue because he says “the science is settled.” So Coleman thinks his courtroom ploy may give him a chance to expose Gore’s folly.

Gore won’t debate the issue because he says “the science is settled.” So Coleman thinks his courtroom ploy may give him a chance to expose Gore’s folly.
“We have tried and tried and tried to get a debate on global warming with…Al Gore and any of the scientists behind him over at the UN IPCC,” Coleman said. “We’d love to have a debate with them, but they go ‘Oh, no, the debate is over.’ Well, now there are 30,000 of us. We have 30,000 scientists – 9000 Phds – who have signed up to debunk global warming. And they still won’t listen to us…So we figure maybe a court of law.”
We say bring on the law suit and let Al Gore be judged by a jury of his peers.
The only problem will be finding 12 other pompous, bloated rip-off artists willing to serve on the jury.
Video of Earth First environmental lunacy in its full glory as they cry over trees.
The folks at Earth First has always been lunatics. But here’s a video clip that demonstrates that environmental lunacy in its full glory.
“I want to mourn the loss of all the old growth trees I’m seeing and tell them that we love them and that we don’t want them to die and that there are people here who do care. So I want you to know that, trees, that we care.”
You’ll love the sniveling, the sobbing, the wailing and the weeping. And the primal scream is pretty funny, too.
What are we to think when unhinged leftist Bill Maher turns on President Obama?
What are we to think when unhinged leftist Bill Maher turns on President Obama?
From the first line of his Friday night rant (“President Obama should just join the cast of “I’m a Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here!” It’s not that farfetched; he’s been on everything else.”) to the last (“I’m glad that Obama is president, but the ‘Audacity of Hope’ part is over. Right now, I’m hoping for a little more audacity.”), Maher rips The One a new one.
Of course, Maher’s real complaint is that Obama hasn’t been socialist enough fast enough. But still, he manages to compare him unfavorably to both President Bush and Lindsay Lohan.
This may be the first and only time we ever recommend watching Maher. So enjoy it.

President Obama has proudly, but oh-so-quietly declared June “Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Pride Month.”
Remember when Presidents announced things like “National Mom and Apple Pie Month” and “National Flag Month”? Well, those days are gone.
President Obama has proudly, but oh-so-quietly declared June “Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Pride Month.”
“In a difficult-to-find declaration posted on the White House Web site on June 1,” the Christian Post notes, “Obama praised LGBT Americans for their continual ‘great and lasting contributions’ that ‘strengthen the fabric of American society.’”
“Obama follows in the footsteps of former President Bill Clinton,” the Post continues, “who also issued a similar proclamation in 1999 and 2000. But Clinton did not use the term transgender in his version. He did, however, reference bisexuals. President George W. Bush, in contrast, did not issue any LGBT proclamation during his eight years in office.”
What about black midgets elves? What about left-handed native Eskimo barbers? What about cross-eyed albino terrorists?
For god’s sake, President Obama, do the right thing and give these oppressed minorities the national months they so richly deserve.

According to Chrysler, their new 2009 Chrysler Peapod will have a “new look and feel.” And if that doesn’t give you a warm glow about President Obama’s brilliant investment, they also say it has an “innovative, groundbreaking design.”
What’s Chrysler doing with those billions of tax dollars you’ve so kindly handed them? Trust us, you don’t want to know. But since you asked, it’s our obligation as journalists to tell you the truth.
Sigh. According to Chrysler, their new 2009 Chrysler Peapod will have a “new look and feel.” And if that doesn’t give you a warm glow about President Obama’s brilliant investment, they also say it has an “innovative, groundbreaking design.”
Are we the only ones who think this concept may have been originally sketched on a cocktail napkin on the 19th hole at some golf course outside Dearborn, Michigan?
You know all that bail out money President Obama’s poured into Chrysler? Kiss it good-bye.

Chastity Bono is a lesbian. Her girlfriend is another lesbian. But now Chastity’s having a sex change surgery. Seriously, if the girlfriend stays with the new Chastity-man (as she’s already announced she will), doesn’t that mean she’s now straight?
We readily admit that we’re just not smart enough to figure this out.
The Situation: Chastity Bono is a lesbian. Her girlfriend is another lesbian. But now Chastity’s having a sex change surgery.
The Question: After Chastity becomes a man, will her lesbian lover still be a lesbian?
Seriously, if the girlfriend stays with the new Chastity-man (as she’s already announced she will), doesn’t that mean she’s now straight? Haven’t we been told that a person can’t change their sexual orientation? Doesn’t that fly directly in the fact of that assertion?
Figure this one out and you probably qualify for a Nobel Prize of some sort.
We’re just not sure what category.
When President Obama made his speech in Cairo last week, people noticed something new, something now, something oh-so-Obama.
We’re referring to the wispy, but stylish ‘stache gracing his upper lip. Admittedly, it wasn’t the manliest mustache and it would have been more at home on a 15-year old boy.
Nevertheless, a new wispy mustache craze is sweeping Washington, DC. Everyone wants one because everyone wants to be just like the Greatest President In History. The literati, the glitterati, the cognoscenti. What about you?
It won’t be long before you’re no one without one.
As you can see, the trend is spreading faster than Swine Flu and it’s a lot less deadly.
Joe Biden
Next time Joe Biden puts his foot in his mouth, it will just call attention to the brand new Obama on his upper lip.
John Edwards
John Edwards needed a new image. Who could resist voting for a guy sporting a suave ‘stache like this?

The Scene: A joint press conference with French President Sarkozy.
The Reporter’s Question: “Iran and North Korea. What has the current policy – which is largely the same as ones of recent years – produced other than given time to North Korea and Iran to advance their nuclear ambitions?”
The President’s Answer: Almost three minutes of stuttering and stammering and reviewing the past in the most vague of terms in hopes that everyone would simply forget what the question was.
The Result: We’re not sure. We forgot the question.

Texting, instant messaging and chat rooms use a strange, new language that’s filled with abbreviations and acronyms designed to quickly communicate and easily disguise a myriad of sex and drug terminology. It’s beyond the comprehension of most adults.
Texting, instant messaging and chat rooms use a strange, new language that’s filled with abbreviations and acronyms designed to quickly communicate and easily disguise a myriad of sex and drug terminology. It’s beyond the comprehension of most adults.
Some of the abbreviations and acronyms have been created so that kids can continue their conversation with friends while a parent is watching over their shoulder, confident the old folks are clueless. For example, if you saw your daughter sending the text message, “PAW GYPO & Ill GNOC later” would you know she just scheduled a time for a naked video camera session after you go to bed for the night? And what’s more frightening than not knowing when your 13-year old keyed LMIRL in a chat room, it meant “Let’s meet in real life?”
So here you go. Here’s the Rosetta Stone of texting/chatting/emailing. A comprehensive guide to acronyms, abbreviations, phrases and lingo to look for on your kid’s phone or computer. Some are outright disgusting and we hope you never see your kids use them. Others are harmless on their own but still important to know in context.
If you feel guilty taking a peek at your little darling’s computer and phone, remember one thing: You paid for them.

Warning: many of these terms are offensive

Todd Palin reacted with great restraint when David Letterman joked about the statutory rape of his 14-year old daughter.
“Any ‘jokes’ about raping my 14-year-old are despicable,” Palin said. “Alaskans know it and I believe the rest of the world knows it, too.”
Personally, we’d like to see Todd hop on an airplane, fly to New York and kick Letterman’s ass from one end of Times Square to the other.
At the very least, he should respond like Democrat icon Harry Truman did when his daughter Margaret was insulted.
Washington Post critic Paul Hume wrote a scathing review of Margaret Truman’s singing. Truman leaped to the defense of his daughter by writing this letter to Hume (but only after being convinced he shouldn’t go down to the Post and kick Hume’s ass):
Mr. Hume: I’ve just read your lousy review of Margaret’s concert. I’ve come to the conclusion that you are an “eight ulcer man on four ulcer pay.”
It seems to me that you are a frustrated old man who wishes he could have been successful. When you write such poppy-cock as was in the back section of the paper you work for it shows conclusively that you’re off the beam and at least four of your ulcers are at work.
Some day I hope to meet you. When that happens you’ll need to a new nose, a lot of beefsteak for black eyes, and perhaps a supporter below![Westbrook] Pegler, a gutter snipe, is a gentleman alongside you. I hope you’ll accept that statement as a worse insult than a reflection on your ancestry.
Wouldn’t you love to hear what Todd really said before the political consultants cleaned it up?
David Letterman’s “Top Ten Highlights of Sarah Palin’s Trip to New York” called Gov. Palin slutty and joked that her daughter got knocked up by A-Rod in the 7th inning of a baseball game. But that’s just fine with MSNBC’s Contessa Brewer. While interviewing conservative host John Ziegler this morning, she said it’s really no big deal, it’s just comedy, and in fact she herself has been called a slut before and she said “I’m fine, I’m still here.”
We’re sure then, that Contessa won’t mind us calling her whorish, since she’s taking it for the team and getting paid for it.
Top Ten Highlights Of Sarah Palin’s Trip To New York
10. Visited New York landmarks she normally only sees from Alaska
9. Laughed at all the crazy-looking foreigners entering the U.N.
8. Made moose jerky on Rachael Ray
7. Keyed Tina Fey’s car
6. After a wink and a nod, ended up with a kilo of crack
5. Made coat out of New York City rat pelts
4. Sat in for Kelly Ripa. Regis couldn’t tell the difference.
3. Finally met one of those Jewish people Mel Gibson’s always talking about
2. Bought makeup from Bloomingdale’s to update her “slutty flight attendant” look
1. Especially enjoyed not appearing on Letterman
This one’s too bizarre for words. Just too damn bizarre for words.
A Dutch journalist named Joanie de Rijke went looking for the Taliban in Afghanistan. Unfortunately, she found them.
We’ll let the Brussels Journal take it from here:
“In November 2008 a Dutch journalist, Joanie de Rijke, was abducted by Taliban fighters in Afghanistan. She was held captive, raped repeatedly, and released after six days for a ransom of 100,000 euros ($137,000). After her ordeal, she acknowledged that her captors ‘did horrible things to me,’ but added in several media interviews ‘They also respected me,’ and emphasized ‘They are not monsters.’”
Bizarrely, de Rijke said this ordeal didn’t make her angry. de Rijke said, “They also respected me.” How did she say they demonstrate this immense respect? Believe it or not, by giving her tea and biscuits between rape sessions.
There’s no explaining this case. Maybe it’s Stockholm Syndrome. Maybe it’s lunacy. Maybe it’s the left’s complete inability to confront evil. Take your choice.

Here’s our two-word review of this animated United Nations Environment Program ozone fright film:
Insipid crappola.
Aimed at impressionable kids, it follows an ozone molecule named Ozzy Ozone and an albatross named Alberta as they “take a voyage of discovery to find out exactly who and what is attacking the ozone layer.” Of course, it also contains the requisite preaching designed to convince children that they can make a difference.
“Luckily,” the video says, “we’re protected by a brave little band of defenders at the very edge of space. The ozone molecules that make up our planet’s ozone layer. Despite their tiny size, our ozone defenders are amazingly strong and smart.”
Yes, the U.N. imparts intelligence to ozone molecules. But based on one viewing, that’s more than we’re willing to say about whomever is responsible for this outrageous child propaganda.
The entire 2009 graduating class at Florida’s Pace High School stood up to the ACLU by standing up to recite the Lord’s Prayer.
Naturally, the incident has been ignored by the liberal media.
When their principal asked everyone to be seated for the ceremony, nearly 400 graduating seniors remained standing and began their prayer. Parents, family and friends spontaneously joined in and then broke into applause upon its completion.
Here’s the background: The ACLU sued the school six months ago, complaining that prayers had been offered at two school-sponsored events. As the school ramped up preparations for this year’s graduation ceremony, the ACLU demanded that they refrain from saying anything religious.
This blatant attempt at censorship led the students to develop their plan in secret.
“Neither students nor teachers shed their constitutional rights at the schoolhouse gate,” noted Mathew Staver, dean of Liberty University School of Law. “The students at Pace High School refused to remain silent and were not about to be bullied by the ACLU.

If there’s a crisis, an issue, even a question in Washington, President Obama will appoint a Czar to manage it. He’s named more than 20 of them so far.
Democrat Senator Robert Byrd believes these Czars give the president too much power. He said the Czar system “can threaten the Constitutional system of checks and balances” and he points out that the power to oversee federal agencies is supposed to be reserved for officials approved by the Senate.
“…these White House staffers are not accountable for their actions to the Congress, to cabinet officials, or to virtually anyone but the president,” Byrd noted. “They rarely testify before congressional committees, and often shield the information and decision-making process behind the assertion of executive privilege. In too many instances, White House staff have been allowed to inhibit openness and transparency, and reduce accountability.”
Let us sum this up in three words: Obama Power Grab.
Here’s a list of Obama’s many power-grabbing czars: Af-Pak (Afghanistan-Pakistan) Czar, Border Czar, Car Czar, Climate Czar, Cyber Security Czar, Drug Czar, Economic Czar, Energy Czar, Faith-based Czar, Great Lakes Cleanup Czar, Guantanamo Closure Czar, Health Reform Czar, Infotech Czar, Iran Czar, Middle East Czar, Pay Czar, Persian Gulf & Southwest Asia Czar, Regulatory Czar, Stimulus Accountability Czar, Sudan Czar, TARP Czar, Terrorism Czar, Urban Czar, and last in alphabetical order, but not least, Weapons of Mass Destruction Czar
It appears, however, that President Obama has neglected to appoint Czars in some very important areas. We urge that he act immediately to name outstanding liberal Americans to fill these voids:
Biden Czar – someone to keep the Veep from saying stupid things that embarrass the administration and all Americans
Teleprompter Czar – someone to make sure that the President’s favorite electronic device is always working
Pantsuit Czar – someone to make sure Hillary never wears anything but pantsuits
Limbaugh Czar – someone to oversee regulation of conservative talk radio
Middle Name Czar – someone to make sure the name “Hussein” is never used unless the President is speaking in a Muslim country
Date Night Czar – someone to schedule taxpayer-funded romantic getaways for the President and First Lady
DoubleSpeak Czar – someone to keep track of all the Obama administration’s new terminology (like changing “Terrorism” to “Man-Caused Disaster”)
Power Grab Czar – someone to be Czar over all the other Czars
Any we left out? Feel free to leave your suggestions in the comment section.
If there’s one thing Obama should keep in mind, it’s that things didn’t work out to well for the Russian Czars in the long run.

Stop the global warming presses. Scientists have discovered a remarkable link between rapidly rising world temperatures and…uh…well…United States postage rates.
“The rise in global temperatures since 1880 closely correlates with increases in postal charges,” the study stated, “sparking alarm that CO2 has been usurped as the main driver of climate change.”
As you can see in the chart, the correlation between rise in temperatures and the rise in the price of postage stamps is far closer than the correlation between temperatures and C02.
This tongue-planted-firmly-in-cheek scientific report demonstrates the obvious quite simply: Just because two things correlate doesn’t mean one causes the other.
But all kidding aside, there is one very important lesson to be learned from this study:
We must stop the increase in postage rates, because they’re killing the polar bears.

These are tough times at the University of Idaho. They’ve had to slash their annual operating budget by $3.8 million. They’re cutting classes, raising student fees, and probably ordering fewer paper clips.
But there was one line item in the budget that was so invaluable, so indispensable, that the U of I administration decided it could neither be cut nor eliminated: The Chief Inspiration Officer.
Magaly Rodriguez is apparently so damn inspirational that the university is paying her $12,500 a month to be…well…inspirational. And it’s not even a full-time job. Rodriguez only spends two weeks per month in lovely Moscow, Idaho. Better yet for her, her contract dictates that she spend anywhere from just zero to 10 days there.
Some faculty are upset that the university is wasting money on inspiration at the same time its being forced to slash other expenses. But University Provost says Rodriguez has been worth every damn penny and likened going to her sessions to “being sedated.” Rodriguez says she is reshaping their culture by building “global peacemaking communities” (she claims to have coined the term “peacemaking”).
$12,500 per month for a part time job. Don’t know about you, but we’re feeling inspired to switch careers.

Brace yourself, Buckeroo. The Alameda County Board of Education has approved a mandatory gay education program for children from kindergarten through fifth grade.
The program is officially titled “LGBT Lesson #9. It’s probably unnecessary to mention that the school district is in California.
Beginning next year, Alameda’s innocent tykes will begin learning about “tolerance” for the gay lifestyle. Unbelievably, parents cannot opt out of lessons. Not even if the program violates their religious beliefs.
“We are not telling anyone what to think,” school district trustee Tracy Jensen said with a completely straight face. “We are letting children know that gay people exist and they deserve to be treated with respect, regardless of whether or not you believe that homosexuality is acceptable.”
“Five year old kids aren’t ready to think on their own about sexuality, and their families’ values will be dismissed,” Karen England criticized. “That’s not an education in critical thinking. It’s social activism.”
Kindergarten kids will be read a book called “The New Girl…And Me.” It’s about a new girl who makes friends with another girl.
First graders will read a book called “Who Is In A Family?” which explores alternate types of families. “Robin’s family,” the book says “is made up of her dad, Clifford, her dad’s partner, Henry, and Robin’s cat, Sassy.”
Second graders will tackle “And Tango Makes Three,” a book about two gay penguins that raise a chick named Tango. The kids will learn that Roy and Silo are “a little bit different” and that “Tango was the very first penguin in the zoo to have two daddies.”
Third graders will watch a film called “That’s a Family,” featuring some homosexual couples and some token traditional families.
We’re not sure what year the student will learn about Republicans lynching gay black men in the White House Rose Garden, but we wouldn’t be surprised if that’s part of the curriculum, too. Or soon will be.

When asked what he was currently reading by a BBC interviewer on Tuesday, President Obama named Joseph O’Neill’s “Netherland.”
Really? Obama also said he began reading the 270-page novel back in April. That’s only about six pages per day.
George Bush, on the other hand, was well-known as a voracious reader and polished off more than 100 books per year. At Obama’s current pace, he’ll only complete about 10 books this year.
In President Obama’s defense, it takes far longer to read a book when it’s on a Teleprompter.

We signed up for the Huffington Post’s Daily Briefs email list a few months ago. To the best of our recollection, while we receive their Daily Briefs, we’ve never received an “Alert” until May 31, when we received this one:
ALERT: Abortion Doctor Murdered At Kansas Church
Oddly enough, no such email alert was sent out the next day for this similar story:
Carlos Bledsoe, Muslim Convert Opposed To US Military, Shot And Killed Army-Navy Recruiter
It struck us as rather selective outrage, but we wanted to be certain before we made any wild, unsubstantiated accusations. So we went to HuffingtonPost.com and used its search function to compare the number of stories on the two murders. There were a least a hundred hits for stories referencing George Tiller’s murder. We say at least, because we stopped counting at that point as the list just kept going and going and going. We have no idea how many more there were.
Then we did another search to see how many references we could find on the Arkansas recruiter murder. Eight. That’s all. Eight. And no, we didn’t search for very specific words like “Abdul Hakim Mujahid Muhammad” or “Carlos Bledsoe.” We erred on the side of caution and performed very loose searches.
While it’s not an exact science, the results were clear: Far more than a hundred Tiller references, but just eight on the Arkansas recruiter (let’s give the poor, ignored guy a name–William Long) murder.
For further study, we then went to Google and did an advanced “site search” where you can search for words found on just a particular site, posted within a specified date range, and various other boolean search criteria. We searched just the HuffingtonPost.com website. The closest date range we could use was “past week.” Close enough.
The results were startling, but we’re not going to publish them because there are too many variables that can get called into question with the search terms. But we ask you to do to your own searches: go to Google, click on Advanced Search, enter “HuffingtonPost.com” into the search site field, set the date range, and try some of your own searches. Remember if you are putting two words together like William Long, they have to be keyed as “William Long” or it will search for William OR long, which will skew the results. Let us know what you find out.
But we did do two simple searches we will tell you about. We simply searched the the Huffingtonpost.com site for “George Tiller” and then for “William Long.” The results were 12,900 pages for George Tiller, but just 6 for William Long.
We understand the George Tiller was more well known than William Long, but Good God, can we honor Private Long just a bit more?
Our conclusion? Huffington Post has a genetic predisposition against the pro-life position. But they seem to have an equally strong pre-dispositon to ignore news that casts Muslims in a negative light.
A reporter asks this simple question: “Can you tell us how much the President and First Lady’s ‘date night’ cost on Saturday night? And if not, why not?”
What follows is more than a minute of Press Secretary Robert Gibbs stuttering, stammering, and changing the subject.
The all-Obama, all-the-time train continues to roll down the track.
St. Martin’s Press is publishing an Obama paper doll book. This is what the fawning press release says:
The historic journey of Barack and Michelle Obama to the White House is memorialized in this fun yet fashionable paper doll book featuring the Obamas.
For the millions who can’t get enough of this remarkable first family, here’s a book containing perforated press-out dolls of Barack and Michelle and over 30 mix-and-match coordinated outfits and accessories featuring the Obamas:
· On vacation in Hawaii · Golfing at Camp David · On election night · At the extraordinary inauguration and Inaugural Ball · Traveling the world on foreign affairs trip · Rolling up their sleeves for a day of service · Plus much more!
We’re thinking of doing our own version of the Obama Paper Doll book. It will have twenty mix-and-match outfits featuring the Obamas:
We’ll let you know when it’s available.
