I HATE THE MEDIA ™

Five-Year Treasury yield hits record low. The MSM will be spinning today’s 2.8% 4Q GDP into a “things are gettin’ better, REELECT OBAMA!” baloney sandwich like they were overpriced windmills. The bond market says something different. Investors pouring into 5 yr bonds at a .76% yield says we’re turning Japanese, they think we’re turning Japanese, they really think so.

Obama: I want an economy “where we’re making stuff and selling stuff and moving it around.” Maybe the economy would be better if the government weren’t being run by someone who thinks like an 8th grader.

Hawaii’s legislature is considering a measure requiring Internet providers to keep track of every Web site their customers visit. The reason for this stroke of genius is one of the legislators herself (one of the few Republicans, in fact) has been “attacked” by a web site. Hey Hawaii, if you paddle really fast, you can make North Korea in time for the spring food shortage!

North Korea threatens to punish mobile-phone users as “war criminals.” Citizens caught defecting to China or using mobile phones during the 100-day mourning period for Kim Jong-il will be considered “war criminals” and punished. Seriously, is there any place on earth more effed-up than this craphole? And to Jimmy Peanuts and the other morons who talk about it like it’s paradise… go there and stay there. Go to hell.

Lautenberg: Obama doesn’t have to convince voters they are better off since he became president. Asked if Obama could make the case to us that we are better off since he allowed us to serve him, Sen. Hackenberg gave a non-denail denial. Try it yourself: “Mr. President, do your proxies accuse your critics of raaaaacism to hide the fact you’re incompetent?” “They don’t need to!” See?

Madonna “bringing gay to the Super Bowl.” So says one of the dancers, anyway. Back in the early days of the Super Bowl, a typical halftime show featured stuff like the Whodaheckaredey College marching band playing music to chop celery by. Try and locate a video and play it instead of watching this one, you’ll enjoy it a lot more.

Gov. Beverly Perdue (D-NC) will not seek re-election – fears a fight with GOP over public education would become too political. Uhhh, yeah, right. Perdue is the nutjob who “joked” about suspending elections for a few years so the pols can “fix” the economy. What would really help the economy is getting dingbats like her out of high office. Good riddance.

Issa says Holder should apologize to Mexico: “Justice has blood on their hands”. 300 Mexicans killed by weapons handed out by a crackpot scheme to advance Obama’s political agenda. So what? Obama and Holder only “care” about people who are of political use to them. The “It’s All About ME!” Administration.

Issa demands Arizona assistant US attorney testify on Fast n’ Furious. Michael Morrissey, whose boss announced he would plead the Fifth last week, is expected to do so also. If we still had a viable free press in this country, they would’ve been interested in this. On that note, FnF now has its own website. As for the “MSM”, see ya on the unemployment line.

Rep. Barney Frank to marry longtime partner. We don’t eeeeevennn want to think what the bachelor party will be like.

 

Victory for Jamie Oliver in the U.S. as McDonald’s is forced to stop using ‘pink slime’ in its burger recipe. Looks like the old “Where’s the beef?” commercials were right but for the wrong reason.

Healthy cocktails to beat the ‘Sundance cold.’ Yes folks, this is how the 99% drink when they’re whooping it up with Robert Redford. We guess boilermakers at Joe’s Bar on the corner are now considered blase’ by the 99%.

Occupy DC activist accuses Van Jones, MoveOn of smear campaign. Occupy DC leader states “a lot of these attacks on us came after we started to call out Democratic operatives that tried to take control of the movement.” Sounds like the Democraps, using their standard proxies and techniques, are out to trash any Occupado who objects to being a DNC sock puppet.

‘I’m The Chairman!’ Waxman Gets Chewed Out During Keystone Hearing. See Representative Ratatouille D-CA, get his ass handed to him.

Holy cow: Another Obama lie from the State of the Union Address. This clip, in which Obama makes a “joke” about stupid regulations, has been making the rounds of the internet. He takes credit for getting rid of a 40-year old regulation that classified milk as a pollutant, but as this IHTM article from June 10, 2010 points out, it was the Obama EPA which issued that idiotic interpretation of the 40-year old regulation. In other words, the President is attempting to take credit for eliminating red tape that his administration established. Holy cow, indeed.

IRS report reveals 36 Obama aides owe $833,000 in back taxes. “These people working for Mr. Fair Share apparently haven’t paid any share, let alone their fair share.” We’re sure all those deadbeats will be inspired to pony up by President Tax-Free-Vacation’s wonderful “State of the Collective” speech.

REVEALED: MICHIGAN UNION MANUAL INSTRUCTS TEACHERS ON HOW TO USE CHILDREN AS ‘PROPAGANDA.’ Yes, let’s whip out the old ‘it’s for the children’ and scare the crap out of everyone so we get what we want!”

Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY) on the State of the Union: “We are in great shape.” That’s odd, last fall Chuckie Cheesehead was supporting the OWSers who seemed to have a different opinion. Guess it’s just a matter of which “we” he’s alluding to; undoubtedly Chuck and the other crony capitalist one percenters in Washington are doing just fine.

North Carolina Death Row Inmate Writes Letter About Life of ‘Leisure.’ The sad part is this guy’s telling the truth. The sadder part is progressives would like to eliminate the death penalty and make ‘kill someone and get a free vacation’ the norm.

New Emissions Data Dampen Global Warming Fears. Here’s one you won’t see in the MSM. Let’s wait and see what warmist nutjob blames this on global warming first.

Liam Neeson says he may convert to Islam. It’s a sad day when one’s star power gets so bad they have to pander to the Muslims.

Chris Tingles Really SHOCKED to hear congressional insider trading exists. Matthews says he’s never heard of such a thing. Must be hard to hear stuff when one’s head is so far up one’s butt. This is the silliest thing anyone’s said on MSNBC in, well, minutes!

Obama’s campaign is preparing an effort to cast him as the most impressive Democratic president on national security in decades, perhaps since JFK. Huh??? Well, Jimmy Carter did set the bar really LOW in this regard, but Obama has still managed to fail to clear it. Tripped over it, in fact.

Obama’s 2012 SOTU address rated at an 8th grade comprehension level on the Flesch-Kincaid readability test, the 3rd lowest score of any SOTU since 1934. SURPRISE, Politico suggests the reason is the audience is so simpleminded, not their boyfriend. They may have a point, likely the only folks who still bother listening to Obabbler are 8th graders and journ0lists. Thanks to Politico for pointing that out.

Eye think you’ve made a BIG mistake! Mother beats burglar unconscious with bedpost. Meet the new laughing stock of the jail. We wonder how the judge will ever keep a straight face?
