I'm not watching BO. I've never been so sick of a politician's face and voice in my life. For anyone else who can't stomach watching Teleprompter Boy, I have just a few wisecracks to pass the time before the experts' opinions start showing up on this website:
Many people can't understand how Mr. Dithers could take 83 days to decide on Gen. McCrystal's request for 40,000 more troops for Afghanistan. That's an easy one. He was trying to find a way to vote "Present".
Possible title for future movie about Obama administration's war against Islamic terrorism: Victory is Not an Option.
I noticed that no-one in the media seemed to consider one possibility in the recent Afghan election. They never even considered the possibility that Karzai won the election. I think that his opponents knew that he won, and they tried to manipulate the election observers and the anti-Karzai press to overturn the election with false charges (or largely false) of election fraud. Unlike the majority of the big media these days, you see, I don't automatically assume that the pro-America candidate is a lying, cheating, corrupt dirtbag.
I guess there's no need to send my resume to NBC or MSNBC...
One of the many sound speculations on the predictable consequences of passing either the House or the Senate Health Care Hostile Takeover bill has concerned what the best and brightest of high school and college students will do if doctors become underpaid, over-regulated, and harassed government employees (but without the civil service protections). They would not likely become doctors. It takes too long and usually saddles the student with very large debts to work off. What field would they go into, to use their brains and make good money? I pondered this, and suddenly had a horrible thought.
OMIGOSH!! THEY'LL ALL BECOME LAWYERS!!!
One definition used to identify a liberal -- Can they tell the difference between diversity and perversity? If not, they're probably a liberal.
Give the liberals credit for one thing, though. They have learned the true lesson of Vietnam. No, not the one they said publicly, which was "Never get involved in a ground war in Asia." We did exactly that in World War II, and we won. The real lesson is that the side with terrible ideas and unlimited determination can defeat the side with good ideas and limited determination. We can defeat them on the issues with our ideas, but we need to match their energy, and not wear boxing gloves to a knife fight. This ain't beanbag, Junior. This is war, and the future of our nation. Fight!
Thanks for keeping me company while we didn't watch together. Good night, and God help us all!
