I HATE THE MEDIA ™

Bloomberg columnist defends Bergdahl Deal: “The President managed to get five guys out of Gitmo”. Yeah, Obama probably stayed up nights for 3 weeks trying to figure out how to spring them. Now if only King Putts can unload some nukes and $10 billion in cash on the Taliban, this boob can get really excited.

Prisoner swap blows up on WH. We’ll be lucky if that’s the only thing that blows up. “Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton provided Obama with some political cover on Tuesday, saying she doesn’t believe in ‘second-guessing’ the president.” There’s more bullsh*t in that one sentence than all the pastures in Texas.

Obamacare Update: Now EVEN MORE States Report Double-Digit Premium Hikes. It looks like Obama will have to start printing stacks of $3 bills to send to Obamacare enrollees for their promised $2,500 per year savings.

Federal government experimented on premature babies. As part of a controlled experiment on 1,316 babies, oxygen monitors were intentionally altered to provide false readings to hospital caregivers so oxygen levels would not be manually adjusted according to babies’ needs. As a result, those getting high levels developed vision problems and those getting low levels developed brain damage. Some died. That was in 2006. Since then we’ve decided to give these heartless bureaucrats total control of the nation’s healthcare system.

VIDEO Bombshell: First words of Bergdahl’s father at White House were Arabic. We at IHTM say: وقد ألف البراغيث تتفشى الخاص بك شعر اللحية (May a thousand fleas infest your hairy beard).

Liberal Austin homeowners surprised to find they have to pay all the taxes they voted for. “I have voted for every park, every library, all the school improvements, for light rail, for anything that will make this city better. But now I can’t afford to live here anymore. … Someone needs to step in and address the big picture.” Some don’t need a ton of bricks to fall on them, often it’s two or three.

White House caught flat-footed by reaction to Bergdahl trade:

“…it appears the administration believed it would win a PR victory big enough to eclipse any legalistic hand-wringing on Capitol Hill, and whatever objections might surface among the military rank-and-file. A White House official told MailOnline on Monday morning that Obama’s deputies were caught flatfooted by the intensity of public outrage…”

Oh, by the way, the polar bear population count was completely bogus. So that whole Polar-Bears-Are-Threatened-So-We-Must-Fight-Global-Warming stuff, which is being used today by Obama’s EPA to justify killing the coal industry and making electricity rates skyrocket, was utter nonsense from day one.

Congressional Democrats are set to unveil their national campaign slogan for 2014. ““This election’s going to be a referendum on who’s got your back.” From the party busily drawing bullseyes on your back.

‘Bowe Bergdahl deserted and these Americans lost their lives searching for him’: The bitter backlash from soldiers who served with Taliban POW as the SIX men who were killed looking for him are revealed. Yet another great victory for the Obama administration. Please ignore the 5 Taliban leaders released from Gitmo and sent to Qatar who will likely go back to their old anti-American bad habits.

Surprise! Leftist minimum wage policy backfires in Seattle suburb. “I lost my 401k, health insurance, paid holiday, and vacation,” she responded. “No more free food,” she added. Too bad, Obama and the Kleptocrats need a narrative for the fall elections. It’s for their your own good! Besides, this is the Koch Bros’ fault.

Two Chains Ask Diners to Keep Guns out of Restaurants: Attention criminals, Sonic and Chili’s Grill & Bar are now offering two for one drink specials during happy hour, a free side small order of fries along with any purchase of a regular size cheeseburger and an absolutely compliant clientele for all of your robbing, raping and killing needs!

Black detective reveals how he fooled former Grand Wizard David Duke and infiltrated the KKK. This is the first we’ve heard of this guy but we think he’s going to be our new hero.

Pentagon wrestles with false climate predictions as military funds shifted to green agenda: These stupid American citizens, if they would just accept that two plus two equals five things would go a lot smoother.

Obama Said to Propose Deep Cuts to Power-Plant Emissions: Not to worry. The massive price increases this move brings about are sure to be offset by the $2500.00 a year Obamacare is saving us!

Bergdahl father’s deleted tweet. No, there’s nothing suspicious about this trade. Nothing at all.

The Five Unjust Men. Is Obama grasping for “a decent interval” in Afghanistan, exchanging a temporary “victory” for the ultimate loss of the country? It’s happened before – Nixon allegedly did the same thing in Viet Nam. “It would be a sham of course. But maybe shams are the stock in trade of politicians.”

Sky-High Demand for Luxury, New York’s Multimillion-Dollar Condo Market Booms: Is this what happens when the Fed gives 80 billion dollars a month to their friends and cronies?

George Clooney planning to move into POLITICS? Great, now the man can go from telling us how to live our lives to legislating them.

Obama says Climate Change growing threat to health. He’s right – we’re already sick of hearing about this crap. And just ignore the billionaire climate-change “activist” Steyer’s hand up Obama’s butt when he talks about this.

Jay Carney resigns. He says it was because of strain on his family life but more likely he was forced to resign by an ancient mathematical principle: as the number of lies increases, the likelihood that two of them will contradict each other increases exponentially.

The MSNBC apology tape:

Donald Sterling ruled mentally unfit, can’t prevent Clippers sale: When fascism prevails you can be sure that it will have been preceded by a “good cause”. A cause like assuming the authority necessary to punish a racist a-hole for the crime of having non appropriate feelings and equally non appropriate thoughts. By the way, if you didn’t catch it, we clearly stated that Donald Sterling is a racist a-hole. So please don’t report us to the authorities. We would sure hate for them to confuse our love of life, liberty and property for a mental illness and then remove any of those things from us.

Minnesota ‘unsession’ purges more than 1,000 obsolete laws. “Legislators launched an initiative that got rid of more than 30 advisory boards, councils and task forces that had outlived their usefulness.” DC needs an “unsession” almost as much as it needs an un-Obama. Almost.

Phony scandal? Courts open window on the IRS’s political litmus tests. “If an IRS agent can reject or stall a pro-Israel group’s application … then no group, no matter what its political orientation or cause is safe from being subjected to a political litmus test designed by any administration of either political party.” The point is well taken but, given the preponderance of Kleptocrats in the federal bureaucracy, few left-wing groups were likely to be affected.
