I HATE THE MEDIA ™

McGruff the Crime Dog busted for pot possession. “…actor who once played the crime-fighting cartoon bloodhound, has been sentenced to nearly two decades behind bars after pleading guilty to possessing 1,000 marijuana plants and a cache of nearly 30 weapons — including a grenade launcher…” Take a bite out of crime – you’re gonna get the munchies after all that choom.

Lake Superior 92% frozen over, a new record. The Great Lakes as a whole are 77% frozen over, also closing in on the record set in 1994 (84%). Since the lakes added 11% over the last week and temperatures are still well below freezing, a new record seems easily achievable.

Antarctic Sea Ice Extent is 27.4% above normal as of Feb 7 2014. We have to wonder if any dumbass climate scientists will make another attempt with an ice-breaker and when stuck, again claim the Antarctic sea-ice is disappearing due to climate change?

January jobs report: 113,000 jobs added, 6.6% unemployment rate. Since according to the White House, fewer people working is good news, should we now be saying freedom rate instead of unemployment rate?

Fed is misled by Wealth Effect. “With so few people actually invested in the results of the stock market, how can it have such a broad effect on consumer spending? It doesn’t, unless the Fed wants to make the case that it is driven primarily by the trickle-down effect. I doubt they would want to do so for obvious political reasons.” But that’s exactly what the Fed is hoping for, though they dare not say so because the Left spent two decades whining about it after Reagan cut taxes. Truth is, the Reagan cuts were broad-based, the “wealth effect” BS isn’t.

GIRL SCOUT COOKIECOTT BREAKS OUT ALL OVER. It looks like the Silent Majority is finally speaking up.

The Emperor Has No Clothes. Didja hear about the trouble in the Ukraine? Well, neither has almost everybody else thanks to the see-no-Obama-failure glorified gossip columnists we call “journalists”. But what we don’t know may end up hurting us: “Barack Obama is in trouble and so are we all. It’s time to stop the Happy Talk and for Republicans and Democrats to face the facts. The emperor has no clothes.” Or no brains or no character or no… well, you get the picture.

Southwest England floods while Environment Agency frets about birds. They knew they needed to update flood prevention infrastructure but the bureaucrats stalled and obstructed while they studied the effect on birds. Now it’s too late. Everybody’s underwater. We see your birds, Brits, and raise you one spotted owl and a delta smelt.

Monthly satellite lower-troposphere temperature data. As the chart shows, there has now been no global warming – at all – for 17 years 5 months.

Kerry to Israeli critics: I’ve been ‘attacked before by people using real bullets’: Such machismo might be impressive to beltway types and ketchup heiresses with more money than taste but can hardly be impressive to a nation built on the ashes of a Jewish holocaust and facing the existential threat of another one every single day. Kerry would do well to learn this, and if he cannot we imagine there are quite a few members of IDF that would be only too glad to tutor him.

Retreat: Obama Admin May Extend Plans Canceled by Obamacare for 3 Years. Retreat? More like Democrats running for office this year and in 2016 are screaming bloody murder and want Obamacare to disappear. If the Republicans let Obama get away with making up his own laws again, which Speaker Spineless will no doubt do, they’ve lost.

Maryland University Opens Semester With Prayer for Amnesty, Increased Minimum Wage & Less Racism (Audio). What’s really amazing about this is that the ACLU or some atheist hasn’t sued already.

 

Somali Muslims riot at Minnesota caucus, force shutdown. You can lead a Muslim to democracy, but you can’t make him drink.

Industrial rock band Skinny Puppy sends bill to U.S. military. They found out Skinny Puppy music was used for torturing inmates at Guantanamo Bay. What’s worse? Finding out someone is using your music without paying you, or finding out that listening to your music is considered torture?

The Russian Chobani ban. They won’t allow a large shipment of Chobani yogurt intended for U.S. athletes into Sochi. Maybe they think because it’s “Greek” yogurt it’s a gay thing?

Bill Nye Debates Ken Ham on evolution and creationism: At some point a real science guy would realize that creationism cannot be properly debated. It is not falsifiable, it is not experimentally verifiable and any evidence held against it may very well be claimed as evidence for it based on extra-natural methods that are beyond our comprehension. This does not make it wrong, it makes it a matter of faith. Of course a real science guy would also see the striking parallel between this and the notion of anthropogenic global warming. It is not falsifiable, it is not experimentally verifiable and any evidence against it is simply (and absurdly) held as evidence for it. This also makes it a matter of faith. Except in this instance they have decided that where a faith in God is inadequate to substantiate beliefs one in Al Gore is infallible.

‘Animal house of horrors’: Investigation reveals PETA killed nearly 2,000 shelter animals in 2013 alone. PETA = People Euthanizing Tiny Animals. Remember this next time one of their twits asks for a donation.

Muslim arsonist of gay club was Obama State Dept Arab ‘cultural ambassador’… Evidently “culture” is a secret code for burning buildings down and blowing shit up.

 

Olympic Threat: US Warns Airlines About Toothpaste Tube Bomb. You can bet the TSA will sink their teeth into this one. To solve this immediately they should only allow bacon flavored toothpaste on board.

Topless Femen protestors attacked the Archbishop of Madrid. Shouting “Abortion is sacred!” the feminists threw bloodstained underwear at the cardinal while pushing their bare breasts onto him. Women: always with the mixed messages.

Company that failed miserably building Healthcare.gov still getting new federal contracts. Old paradigm for success in America: work really hard providing products or services people want. New paradigm: get government contracts by being BFF with president’s wife, fail miserably, then get more contracts to fix the mess you made.

EPA bosses dragged feet on concerns over fraudster employee’s bonuses, documents show. Well? What difference does it make? After all, it’s not our money. It’s the taxpayers.

CALIFORNIA: OBAMACARE TURNING CANCER PATIENTS AWAY. If you like your cancer, you can keep it.

New executive action on Global Warming: Obama creates “climate hubs.” As we shiver through one of the coldest winters in history, it’s good to know the president has priorities.

Obama Tweets Pic of Self to Celebrate 225th Anniversary of George Washington’s Election. Mirror, mirror, on the wall, who’s the fairest of them all?
