Axelrod: Obama thinks Boston bombings could be related to “Tax Day”. On the other hand, could this be another “Reichstag fire”, Minister Goebbels?

Report: Boston bomber used at least one pressure-cooker IED. “Terrorists have been using them for more than a decade, most frequently in Nepal, Afghanistan, India, and Pakistan. …a very crude version was part of the car-bomb attempt in Times Square in 2010.” BTW, the Times Sq bomb was the one that Nitwit Bloomberg thought was planted by an ObamaCare protestor. Projection!

President Obama is not sending anybody to Margaret Thatcher’s funeral. He’s too busy himself, what with all that golf on his schedule. Even Joe Biden is unavailable, apparently. Michelle and the kids aren’t going. The Secretary of State, John Kerry, won’t be there. Nobody from the Obama administration will be there.

That Global Warming thing? Turns out CO2 isn’t the primary culprit. The journal Nature Climate Change admits that sea level rise could be mitigated much more easily by cutting emissions of short-lived gases such as methane, tropospheric ozone, and hydrofluorocarbons. Now they tell us.

Barney Frank: “No tax cut would have helped us deal with this.” Yeah, so let’s guarantee this never happens again by tripling the climate change vacation conference budget at the Dept of Energy. How is it Barney doesn’t have a job on MSNBC?

No One Can Call Gold A Safe Haven Ever Again. So much for William Devane and his gold commercials.

Chris Matthews, Democratic congressman suggest Tax Day tie to Boston attacks A day without Tingles is like a day with sunshine. [Video at the link.]

Climate changing for global warming journalists. “Last week, the world’s most prestigious newsmagazine – The Economist – backed away from its past alarmist position, saying that ‘If climate scientists were credit-rating agencies, climate sensitivity would be on negative watch.'” Science is never settled.

TWO EXPLOSIONS REPORTED AT BOSTON MARATHON, MULTIPLE INJURIES REPORTED. Evidently no one really knows what’s going on. If you have a TV turn it on to CNN or FOX. It has me wondering if he had any suicide bombers visiting Boston.

1. Update from Twitter (can’t vouch for it) but supposedly secondary devices are being found.

2. Other uptdate from Twitter is DHS has been sent in.

3. From Fox, ball bearings are being found. One device was in garbage can, one in a building.

4. Hearing people in ER with limbs missing.

5. Per Boston.com a controlled explosion is about to be set off. Obviously they’re finding more bombs.

6. The Associated Press ‏@AP12s BREAKING: Intelligence official: 2 more explosive devices found at Boston Marathon; being dismantled

SOMEBODY’S LYING!!!!!

 

Google Chief Thinks Driverless Planes Are a Menace, Wants Them Banned. Meanwhile, Google spies on your Gmail, web searches and soon everyone will be wearing Google spy-glasses. Oh, and what about those driverless cars Eric? Oh, and let’s not forget Wi-Spy-Gate. Yes Eric certainly is against spying isn’t he? Can you spell H-Y-P-O-C-R-I-T-E?

Kerry: All you gun toters are scaring Japanese students, or something. Or could it just be that because media idiots (but I repeat myself) and grandstanding pols do nothing these days but talk about guns 24 hrs a day, that’s what makes foreigners think the US is unsafe? Hey, maybe if the media talks about Kerry’s $7 million yacht a lot, the world might think we’re all sailors!

Did you notice who was celebrating with Adam Scott when he won the Masters? That’s Steve Williams, long-time Tiger Woods caddy who was fired by Tiger after marital infidelities trash-canned his golf career. Meanwhile, Tiger committed a rules violation that earned him a two-stroke penalty and nearly disqualified him. Final score? Scapegoat 1, Tiger 0.

Chavez’s heir to take over divided Venezuela. Chavez’s hand-picked successor Maduro “got just 50.7 percent of the votes compared to 49.1 percent for Capriles, with nearly all ballots counted.” “…a stunningly narrow margin that highlights rising discontent over problems ranging from crime to power blackouts.” “…a disaster for Maduro…” OPM running out, unicorns running away.

Jamie Foxx wears T-shirt with pictures of Trayvon Martin and Sandy Hook massacre victims to MTV Movie Awards: That’s not a picture of Trayvon Martin on Foxx’ shirt. That is a picture of what Trayvon Martin would have looked like if he’d been “white enough” to appeal to the pasty face liberals looking make sure that the next time a 6’3 thug is in a strange neighborhood beating down the 5’9 fat guy the victim either takes it like a man or dies trying.

The eco-sex activists who want to save the world. “A new documentary, ‘F*ck for Forest’, detailing the activities of the group of the same name. They enjoy confronting society with sex, nudity and bodily fluids, but what F*** for Forest (FFF) really want to do is save the world.” That’s what they told the journ0lists – we think what they really want to do is get naked, avoid bathing and have sex. Hope the trees are innoculated for STDs (and termites.)

French research suggests women are better off not wearing bras. It’s not often IHTM takes an official position on scientific research but… we agree.

‘We’re Being Inundated’: Vigilante Group Uses Secret Cameras to Record the Flow of Illegals Across the Border (VIDEO). We don’t think this is a “secret camera” as someone is rather obviously filming this, and we wouldn’t be surprised if it’s not even real smugglers. It does show how easy it is to crack the border fence though and is more proof Janet Napolitano’s nose should be growing.

Obama to Sacrifice Asian Missile Defense Systems in Exchange for China’s Help With North Korea. Looks like Kerry is already in Obama mode and bending over. Way to hang tough guys, way to embarrass the country guys, way to look like little girly-men who let little North Korea’s Kim Jong Un buffalo them.

Update: Disgraced Government Official, Not Aryan Brotherhood, Killed Texas Prosecutors. So much for those theories. He was a Justice of the Peace, it seems fitting that if convicted, Texas should give him eternal peace after his trial.

Millions face starvation as world warms, say scientists. Global warming is so destructive, it causes chaos even when it’s not happening. A few trillion more Bernanke Bucks to the UN should take care of it…

Ron Paul plans foreign policy institute. “The ill-advised policies pushed by the neo-cons have everywhere led to chaos and destruction, and to a hatred of the United States and its people. Multi-trillion dollar wars have not made the world a safer place; they have only bankrupted our economic future.” Well, to be frank, kinetic military actions to spread democracy or for “nation building” don’t seem to work, but neither does isolationism. Damn, life is complicated – if only we had people in elected office who knew how to think and make sound judgements.

US police officer fired after accused of bringing Trayvon Martin target to gun range. Well, we think bringing a Trayvon Martin target to a shooting range is beyond stupid. We wonder, would he have gotten a promotion had this been a George Zimmerman target?

The best commercial Shatner ever made… Well, it’s not really a commercial, but it’s awesome. The freakin’ idiots in Congress and elsewhere should watch this until they get a clue.

Russia blacklists 18 Americans in retaliation for ‘Magnitsky List.’ Well, it didn’t take Putin long to start putin it in.

Tough-on-crime police chief accidentally eats entire cannabis-laced cake left at his home by his daughter’s friend. Talk about a bad case of the munchies, this is it!
