Please do not adjust your sets

You may see some anomalies happening here over the next couple of days. Don’t fret, it isn’t a return of the problems we had last week. I am going to be doing some tinkering here, in preparation for something really exciting that is about to happen right here. Don’t worry if you miss the anomalies. I don’t expect them to be disruptive for more than a few moments at a time — and then things will go back to exactly the way they were. I am just letting you know so that you don’t freak out when you see something you aren’t used to. I don’t want you getting all upset if you see Michelle Malkin’s new column here or Michael Savage’s corner for recipe and home decorating tips.

Quote Threeper: Michael Steele Makin’ it ‘Real,’ Homeboy

Political astronomers report Planet Steele was last spotted orbiting Uranus “Some slum love out to my buddy…Gov. Bobby Jindal is doing a friggin’ awesome job in his state. He’s really turned around on some core principles like, hey, government ought not be corrupt. The good stuff…” – Michael Steele, Republican National Committee Chairman, from an interview with Curtis Sliwa on ABC radio Feb. 25, 2009, as quoted by Abby Zimet at Common Dreams.org. “There’s a lot of bling bling the bling bling’s got bling bling in this package. That’s how bad it is.” – Ibid. Steele, referring to Obama’s stimulus package. “This party [the GOP] has got to take its head out of its you-know-what and recognize that America doesn’t look like America in 1952. That America now is something very different, very beautiful that it has a lot of strips and strains to it. But, it’s real and we’ve got to get in the real.” – Ibid. Steele. “Sometimes I wonder whether the world is being run by smart people who are putting us on or by imbeciles who really mean it.” – Mark Twain Pic cribbed from Bartcop.

Ye Olde Scribe Presents: Neo Con Cartoon Characters

February 27, 2009

Amongst the rubble created by living under the eight year Junior-itis plague there are still many who suffer. Included in this wretched morass, are those who continue to drop their pants at common sense and show “more ass:” Neo Con cartoon characters. Please, if you think you can help, stay “tooned” for yet another bleeding heart plea. You know how these toad sucking Liberals are. Please find it somewhere within the depths of your shallow soul to help… Sponge Bob… That’s right. The quirky little sponge has gone Neo Nitwit. He insists the taxes at Bikini Bottom must DROP to nothing but bare flesh n’ bones. He wants to squeeze all he can out of the middle class while he gets fat and drug addled: soaking in the wealth of his cartoon residuals. He looks a lot like Lush Dimbulb, only even Sponge Bob should be taken more seriously.

Justice?

“It is the government’s contention that the judges’ decisions to send juveniles to PA Child Care and Western PA Child Care were motivated by their business dealings with the center’s owner, identified in court records as Participant No. 1, and the center’s builder, identified in court records as Participant No. 2.” In Bush’s version of America would this be rewarded?

Failed Talking Point #1

February 27, 2009

Next time someone offers you some variation on the following catch phrase when referring to taxation they don’t like that it…. “…takes away our money at the point of a gun.” …remember that the “logic” they claim to be using is that to enforce taxation a government would, eventually, have to point a gun if all else failed: just like it would to enforce any other law if all else failed. This supposed “logic” is often followed by further “logic” in the form of the irrational claim: “It’s our money.” Now deconstruct their supposed “logic” by using true logic. Ask…

The Tattlesnake Catch a Rising Star Crashing Edition

Apu’s a Goner in 2012, Along with Sanford, Palin, and Barbour, As Party Leader Rush Waits in the Wings “Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.” – Albert Einstein It’s become a clich矴o point out that Obama, once again, oratorically cleaned the Republican clock, as he did Feb. 23 in his quasi-SotU. To gauge how bad the damage was this time around, all you had to do was look at Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, who appeared as if he’d just chugged a gallon of alum as he listened to the president, and House Minority Leader John Boehner, who looked like he just fell out of a coffin. But the GOP wasn’t done slitting its own throat; to do that they employed Dr. Bombay, Gov. Bobby Jindal of Louisiana, a very creepy little man who, in his spare time, doubtless flashes women on street corners, smiles his goofy lopsided smile, and then runs away giggling. GOP ‘Rising Star’ Jindal was no match for Obama it was like watching Barney Fife in the ring with the 1973 Muhammad Ali and his cornucopia of ineptly rendered half-truths and flat-out lies induced much chuckling. Memo…
