I HATE THE MEDIA ™

Obama says it’s ‘not as trendy to be an Obama supporter’ today compared to ’08. Once again the President dazzles us with a display of the very sort of intellect that has guaranteed his college transcripts remain the things of mystery.

Ship from failed Mongol invasion found off Japan. Obama is reportedly off to the area in order to apologize for the event.

Former Obama speechwriter sells White House sitcom. Why do we get the feeling this is going to be That’s My Bush redux?

A proposed revision to Freedom of Information Act rules would allow federal agencies to lie to citizens and reporters seeking certain records, telling them the records don’t exist. This administration couldn’t win a transparency contest even if all the other contestants were brick walls.

Another Hotel Cancels Event Critical of Islam. We don’t know who’s making these threats or exactly what kind of threats they are but we have our suspicions. Want to bet United States Attorney General Eric Holder and the MSM won’t completely ignore this? We didn’t think so. Ahhh…the religion of peace.

U.S. border agent jailed for improper arrest of suspected drug smuggler. “A U.S. Border Patrol agent has been sentenced to two years in prison for improperly lifting the arms of a suspected 15-year-old drug smuggler while handcuffed — in what the Justice Department called a deprivation of the teenager’s constitutional right to be free from the use of unreasonable force.” Just when you think things at the border can’t get any worse the government sinks to another low.

State Department buys $70,000 worth of Obama books. “The U.S. Department of State has bought more than $70,000 worth of books authored by President Obama, sending out copies as Christmas gratuities and stocking “key libraries” around the world with “Dreams from My Father” more than a decade after its release.” Finally! Something worse than getting a lump of coal in your Christmas stocking.

2010 Democrat election loser Steve Driehaus sues because he lost election. “Charging that its activities contributed to his defeat and thus to his ‘loss of livelihood,’ former Rep. Steve Driehaus (D-OH) is suing the Susan B. Anthony List, a group that supports pro-life candidates for Congress.” We’re going to sue the Democrats because they are making it impossible to write satire anymore.

Public School Dist. To Pay Muslim Teacher Over Mecca Trip. The settlement marks the conclusion of the first lawsuit filed by Obama’s Department of Justice (DOJ) as part of a pilot program designed to ensure “vigorous enforcement” of civil rights in the workplace. Safoorah Khan, math teacher, nets $75,000 for being a big whiner. Who says islam doesn’t pay?

Mexican ID Becomes Valid ID in Sonoma County. “Today is a great day,” Sonoma County Assistant Sheriff Lorenzo Dueñas said. “We’re now going to accept the matriculár consular ID.” I guess he actually DOES have a ‘stinking badge’.

Elizabeth Warren says she ‘created intellectual foundation’ for Occupy Wall Street movement. Near as we can tell, the “intellectual foundation” for this national bowel movement is “other people got stuff and we want it.” For once, we’d tend to agree with the shrill, grasping hack.

FBI suspected the late Rep. John Murtha (D-PA) in scheme funneling funds to benefit friends, ex-staffers. “…the WaPo and others had documented the odd appearance of earmarks for tiny defense contractors that just happened to open an office in western Pennsylvania and just happened to hire one of the lobbying firms close to Murtha and just happened to begin making campaign donations to Murtha and other Members of Congress close to him.” Another Democrat who did his share to combat greed.

Early morning police raid ousts Occupy Oakland. Say what you want about Oakland, California. At least they have the cojones not to put up with this crap. Step two should be to delouse the lawn in front of City Hall.

‘We’re a culture, not a costume’: Students launch poster campaign against ‘racist’ Halloween costumes. The systematic “de-spining” of America. Pretty soon it’ll be a crime to disagree with a black president just because he’s black… oh, wait.

Oh, and good luck with that “culture” thing there, Mo …

Chinese trucker hits a boy… then runs over him again to be sure he’d died ‘because it was cheaper than paying the hospital bills’. The value of a single life in the communist collective? Apparently, not very much.

Obama surprises chicken shack staff by dropping in for takeaway BEFORE glitzy LA fund-raising dinner. Hmmm. We wonder what Michelle will have to say about this? An unhealthy fried chicken dinner before dinner? More liberal hypocricy in action.

Your Excellency: Charles’s fawning letter to Gaddafi discovered at one of despot’s palaces. Prince Dumbo again shows us his remarkable capability to figure things out. The only problem is that he’s evidently in the Twilight Zone. After all he does rabidly believe in global warming.

‘It promotes homosexuality’: Rage of parents as high school organises cross-dressing event. Here’s the latest in the never-ending supply of stupid teachers in action. In this case we probably don’t want to know what the action is.

Group to Call for ‘Robin Hood Tax’ at Protests Saturday. Unfortunately this group seems to have missed out on some of the finer dynamics of the Robin Hood legend. It is ultimately the story of a heroic protagonist fighting against the debilitating taxation of the people by an unfair, corrupt and illegitimate government. It is not the story of an unfair and corrupt government being persuaded to raise taxes -that will ultimately trickle down to the middle class- so that a rag-tag band of over-privileged bougie bohemians can upgrade their iPhone and Mac Book Pro’s without ever having to get real jobs.

Qaddafi apparently sodomized after capture: We’re simply appalled by the actions of this butt-hole.

World power swings back to America. “The American phoenix is slowly rising again. Within five years or so, the US will be well on its way to self-sufficiency in fuel and energy. Manufacturing will have closed the labour gap with China in a clutch of key industries. The current account might even be in surplus.” Thanks partially to a foundering socialist Europe that’s the model for Obama’s hallucinations “vision.” If America succeeds, it will be in spite of Obama and the Occu-crats, not because of them.

‘American Grown’: Title of Michelle Obama’s Book. Apparently Michelle Antoinette’s first book is not about her husband.

Obama crony Penny Pritzker called out at OccupyChicago by union speaker. “From the viewpoint of both the right and the left, Penny Pritzker is a snake in the grass. But she’s Obama’s snake.” If Obama was as smart as the media said he was, he’d understand one can’t piss in the wind and expect not to get wet.

New video reveals New York Times Reporter Natasha Lennard Is #OccupyWallStreet Activist, Supporter. Obama-style genius at work: “A newly-discovered video, filmed by OWS supporters themselves, reveals that New York Times reporter Natasha Lennard is not merely covering the protests, but is also apparently taking part in planning and executing them.” All the astroturf that’s fit to print.

OWS camp at Zuccotti Park “like Walmart for rats,’’ says health expert. Health expert Wayne Yon saw at least 15 violations of the city’s health code — the type that would easily shut down a food establishment. Mayor Nanny Bloomberg famously regulates transfat and salt consumption for heatlh reasons, yet he allows a vast pigpen to flourish in Lower Manhattan. What’s wrong with this picture? Nothing! Bloomberg’s a typical liberal politician, this is how they usually act.
