I HATE THE MEDIA ™

Letterman Asks NBC’s Brian Williams: ‘Are There Gay Justices on the Supreme Court?A better question would be: Are there Supreme Court Justices taking the view of the fascists; that rights are not intrinsic to the individual but rather gifts from the state?

I want a “leave me alone” society. “…one where Christian schools can turn people away for rejecting their doctrine, just as gay rights groups can reject those who don’t share their beliefs. …’consensus’ is usually a fancy word for muting minority viewpoints. I want us all to be free to be annoyed with each other from our separate corners.” Throw in drinking as big a soda as we want, owning guns, not buying health insurance, etc, etc… subvert the entire leftist, nannyist, technocratic, statist dominant paradigm.

Unwilling to work; 25% in Hale County AL collect disability, 14 million nationwide. “Hale county’s Dr. Timberlake asks a simple question to all his patients. ‘What grade did you finish?’ If you claim ‘back pain’ and do not have a degree, Timberlake believes you are disabled.” Disability is the new welfare. What’s more, it saves the states money as welfare was paid by the states whereas disability is federal money. Stimulus.

Julia Pierson named first female director of the Secret Service after Colombia prostitution scandal. We bet there’s lots of Secret Service Agents who are very happy that Obama didn’t hire Lorena Bobbitt.

Huckabee: If the GOP switches on gay marriage, evangelicals walk. We think they already walked anyway. There was a large number of Republican voters who voted in 2008 who didn’t vote in 2012. We think they weren’t going to vote for a Mormon President and didn’t want to vote for Obama, Gary Johnson, Ron Paul or Roseanne Barr, so they plain didn’t vote. They probably gave the election to Obama. We say no one will really notice if they’re gone because in spite of all the noise they make, they’re never here when you need them anyway.

Barack Obama is the president that Nixon always wanted to be. “Obama has not only openly asserted powers that were the grounds for Nixon’s impeachment, but he has made many love him for it.” Well, a big difference was that the media was a rabid attack dog on Nixon but a lapdog for Obama. Fourth estate our ass.

CNN notices high-speed rail is an expensive boondoggle. CNN reporting on this is like a pig playing the piano – it’s not whether the pig plays well or not, what’s amazing is that he played at all.

Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI) to launch Victims of Government project. “The root cause of our economic and fiscal problems is the size, the scope, and the cost of government – all the rules, all the regulations, and all the government intrusion into our lives. The Victims of Government series is designed to demonstrate that… Over-regulation consumes massive amounts of the people’s money, too often lacks common sense, has no heart, costs jobs and economic growth.” Kinda like a festivus for the rest of us.

Tennessee lawmakers confused and fearful after mistaking mop sink installed in men’s room for a Muslim foot-washing station. Frankly, we would have guessed it was a douche station for Barney Frank.

Free Angela and All Political Prisoners – OFFICIAL TRAILER: Oh the unfathomable amounts of absurdity one must embrace to spend four decades fighting the “prison industrial complex” by turning the entire nation into a prison industrial complex.

Student who refused to stomp Jesus brought up on academic charges. This is a college with schizophrenia. First they supported the class exercise, then they apologized for it and said nobody was suspended, now they’ve accused him of a long list of violations and told him:

“In the interim, you may not attend class or contact any of the students involved in this matter – verbally or electronically – or by any other means. Please be advised that a Student Affairs hold may be placed on your records until final disposition of the complaint.”

A deposit in a bank is not a riskless form of saving. “Banks are not vaults. They are thinly capitalised asset managers that make a promise– to return depositors’ money on demand and at par– that cannot always be kept without the assistance of a solvent state.” Or, in our case, a fiat currency with a central bank willing to print enough money to reflate asset prices and keep the banks afloat. The theme song of fractional reserve banking is “I’m forever blowing bubbles.”

Video shows dog belonging to Mark Kelly’s daughter attack sea lion. Perhaps the Kelly family shouldn’t have any guns. They can’t even control their dog.

Gun shop blocks Mark Kelly’s right to buy AR-15, citing political ‘intent. Not to mention hypocrite intent.

Australian store to charge people $5 for browsing. At first we thought this was the stupidest idea we’d ever heard. Then we saw the brilliance of the concept. So from now on we’d appreciate it if you would automatically send $5 to us every time you browse IHTM. Twenty thousand pages views a day times five bucks equals $100,000 per day. That would not only pay for our monthly server fee, but would leave enough to pay for the Administrator’s kids’ college loans and the Editor’s severe almond milk habit. Browse, baby, browse. And give ’til it hurts.

The Eighteenth Brumaire of Barack Obama. Napoleon’s nephew, Louis Bonaparte, was “…a pretender, a man who was all things to all people, and a man who was carried into political life by plying the outcasts of society with sausages. Then … he plied them with sausages anew. Bonaparte represented no class interest and no transcendent interest except his own.” Obama’s political father revealed.

The Democrats’ ObamaCare spin problem. “It’s like trying to put a positive spin on having your leg bitten off by a shark: sure, yes, in the long run you’re going to see a 50% saving on socks, but that’s not exactly comforting news while you’re watching the water around you go pink…” With such a huge crap sandwich, it’s impossible to ignore the smell.

Sasha, Malia Obama vacation at Bahamas’ “Atlantis” resort. Well, this evil sequester thing doesn’t seem to be hurtin’ the Royal Family or Clown Prince Biden much. Kinda reminds us of George Soros’ guest house.

More Obama sequestration drama: FAA claims spending cuts force closure of 149 airport towers. $637 million in cuts in a budget of $48 billion. “It is worth noting that, the specified towers in the FAA Contract Tower Program were all operational in 2009, when the FAA received less funding than it will under sequestration.” Political theatre of the absurd.

“Why we on the Left made an epic mistake on immigration”. A UK liberal has second thoughts about immigration: “…the race lobby have been slow to recognise that strong collective identities are legitimate for majorities as well as minorities, for white as well as for black people. For a democratic state to have any meaning, it must ‘belong’ to existing citizens. They must have special rights over non-citizens. Immigration must be managed with their interests in mind. But it has not been.”

U.S. Border Patrol uniforms now manufactured in Mexico. Nobody involved in issuing this contract stopped to think that an unlimited supply of Border Patrol uniforms in Mexico might be problematic? Hey, why stop at giving the coyotes uniforms? Why not give them guns, too? Oh, wait…

MSNBC panelists: A lot of this opposition to Bloomberg’s anti-gun campaign is probably fueled by anti-Semitism. To a loathesome, race-baiting bunch of idiots, every problem is another opportunity to engage in loathesome, race-baiting idiocy.

Nigel Farage says “Get your money out of Spain while you’ve still got a chance”. Says the EU “crossed a line” by trying to extract funds from savers under the terms of the abandoned Cypriot bail-out. “Even I didn’t think that they would stoop to actually stealing money from people’s bank accounts.” Next domino to fall?

De la Renta: Dressing first lady not top priority: Nor would it be ours if she didn’t have the power to make us pay for it.

Ben Carson To Beck: You Have No Right To Semi-Automatic Weapons In Large Cities: We had no idea that equal access to rights was decided by location. Be sure to check with the city fathers next time you think about exercising your right to free speech, religion, assembly, privacy or due process. These things might very well be restricted according to zip code. (H/T DefHarryMelon, thanks!)
