Predictions are hard....

This makes a lot of sense, as a description of why the present government budget is a bad idea. At least, I thought it was, until the last paragraph, when the author (referring to himself in the third person) says:
The abject moral failure of the new team to identify much less to propose a solution to the End Game is extremely disturbing to the present author. Despite his initial support of President Obama, he increasingly wonders whether we have the right team in place.

I guess maybe the third person thing should have clued me in.....

If the author couldn't see through Obama (who is very plain about what he is), why should I trust his analysis now?

Chicago thugs in the White House

Yeah, that's not good......President Unicorn, the agent of hopeychangey, OMMPBUH*, is apparently using his minions to strong arm Chrysler creditors into moving down the debt food chain.

Governor Doubtfire did the same thing here in Arizona when it came to renaming a mountain after Lori Piestawa.

The big question is: why is he so interested in the capital structure of Chrysler, when he is manifestly not a capitalist?

Biden Gaffe

By now, most everyone has heard the latest Bidenism--that he'd tell people not to fly or ride the subway because of the risk of swine flu.

The Robert Gibbs response was priceless--- "I think the vice president misrepresented what the vice president wanted to say," Gibbs went on to explain that what Joey MEANT was to stay off trains/planes IF YOU HAVE THE FLU. Which is not even remotely what he said. Even Jake Tapper called him on it.

Frankly, I wonder why Gibbs didn't just say, "What the vice president MEANT to say was--I love pink ponies! And unicorns! yeah, pink ponies and unicorns--that's it."

I guess the larger question is why is Joe Biden regard any differently than a crazy old uncle who's never been right since being kicked in the head by a mule? "Biden gaffe" gets over 400K hits on google. Remember, he's already on record praising his boss for being "the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy" presumably in contrast to those gangstas on BET.

And conservatives are the backward and racists ones. Riiiiiiight.

Best comment of all so far: "They told me that if I voted for McCain we'd have a Vice President who was a moron... and they were right!"

Swine flu: allah's revenge against the infidel.....

When I first read that Egypt ordered all its pigs to be slaughtered due to swine flu concerns, I thought to myself "Egypt has pigs? Don't they consider that wonderful, magic animal to be unclean?"

But then I found the backstory. It's the Christian minority in Egypt who owns the pigs. Not just owns them, but raises them as a way to make a living.

What a wonderful, magical way to use a perceived crisis as a way to screw over the infidels. Once again, its the religion of peace: finding new ways to screw with people since 622.....

I feel like I'm GETTING swine flu......

.....every time I see this one talking about it......

Enough already!

Low flying planes in NYC

So President Unicorn wanted a photo for his airplane, but they didn't tell anybody and thus many thought it was 9/11 all over again.

Haven't these hip, happenin' people in the White House ever heard of photoshop?

*sigh* I could have warned you about this.....

Napolitano equates Canadian, Mexico borders....

......

Where to begin?

This woman was governor of Arizona for two terms.

I never understood that.

The press here largely gave her a free pass, and this sort of stupid statement, followed by "I didn't say that/you misunderstood me" was commonplace.

HopeyChangey!!

Roubini: 'Suckers Rally' to Fade Amid Economy Woes

Money: "Nouriel Roubini, one of the few experts to foresee the current global crisis, said Tuesday a recent "suckers rally" in stock markets would fade as the U.S. economy continues to wither and the financial system suffers unexpected shocks."

Yep, he's been right so far.

And the natural history of such things is that people like this are right.....until they are wrong.
