A modern day John the Baptist

T.L. Davis wonders how long it will be "before we find ourselves the safest of all people, those restrained from themselves, locked away in a padded room and fed sterile food and filtered water."

Never one to miss out on a good thing!

Double standard

Ted Nugent gets a visit from the Secret Service, after expressing himself on what would happen if Obama gets reelected. Zo does a good job pointing out the hypocritical differences when the extremists on the left express themselves about Republican Presidents and Vice Presidents.

Relax with this NASA video

 This video features a series of time lapse sequences photographed by the Expedition 30 crew aboard the International Space Station. Set to the song "Walking in the Air," by Howard Blake, the video takes viewers around the world, through auroras, and over dazzling lightning displays.

Obama eats dog!

And, there is this:
"Much has been made of Romney's carriage of his dog in a cage strapped to his car roof. Much more has been made of Obama's confession in one or the other of his ghost-written roman à clefs that he had partaken of dog meat as a youngster. And the latter has been far more amusing than the former.

This is a singular problem with Obama and his crew. As craven thugs, they don't even bother to perform the most elemental of diligences before shooting gangsta-sideways at the passing vehicle we know as the Republican candidacy. Back in the day the fat, besodden liberal drunkards of Ye Olde Presse loved to call Nixon's administration The Gang That Couldn't Shoot Straight. Well, at least they weren't shooting themselves in the foot every other day. Twice a day, now that it's a leap year.

Obama's posse, and the molls of the press that linger in the back seat, always rimjobbable, are so freaking stupid they cannot see the ricochets. Romney abuses dogs? Obama EATS THEM! Really, has no one on the President's campaign committeee even read his beloved reminescences?

Everything about this administration has been an abject failure. Especially the failure of the Undead Media to hold this peckerwood's feet to the fire. They don't get it: a few trips to the woodshed would have given this fellow something to think about. They might of had a contenda. Instead of a failure. Which is what he is, and will forever be. They didn't discipline their boy, thus he misbehaves. I'm not the first person to opine that the press has done this self-absorbed prick no favor by covering for him."

Not a good place to be a comedian

Who knew? Egypt has comedians! One is going to jail, and he will soon be joined by another, who posted these pictures of Mickey and Minnie in Muslim attire.

Perpetuating the cycle of human misery

What is your parenting style? Permissive? Overly protective? Somewhere in between? Doesn't matter. This study shows that every style of parenting results in profoundly unhappy adults. "Despite great variance in parenting styles across populations, the end product is always the same: a profoundly flawed and joyless human being." The study did find, however, that adults often achieve temporary happiness when they have children of their own to perpetuate the cycle of human misery. http://www.theonion.com/articles/study-finds-every-style-of-parenting-produces-dist,26452/

Do I have to be hypnotized to get to the right?

This doctor has found that it is possible to activate the right brain through hypnosis, linking it with higher consciousness and simultaneously neutralizing the left brain. He is convinced that the main thing isn’t the synchronicity between the halves of the brain, but the connection between the right half and one’s "higher consciousness."

Ring the bells that still can ring

"If I wanted America to fail..."

Did you show your i.d. today when you bought your booze? Your cough medicine? Your cigarettes??

Of all the absurdities being pushed by the Democrat mobs, protecting voter fraud must surely be at the top of the list. Vincent Carroll writes today about Voter ID and its Hysterical Critics: http://www.denverpost.com/commented/ci_20437249?source=commented-opinion

It is so simple, yet seemingly so rare: show your employees that you appreciate them!

All because he felt unappreciated, a lawyer in Mexico who handled bribes for a major American corporation, has blown the whistle. This will result in bad publicity for the corporation, protracted trials resulting from criminal charges, and likely prison terms for top executives. The New York Times has done an in-depth investigation here: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/47128671/ns/world_news-the_new_york_times/#.T5Ndhdlvfz4

"They" won!

Every year on 4/20 there is a marijuana smoke-in on the campus of The University of Colorado in Boulder. Last year there were 10,000 smokers participating. This year campus officials stationed police at every entrance to the campus, requiring student i.d. from every person walking on the campus. Not only that, but they also applied a particularly odorous fish fertilizer on the area where past smoke-ins had taken place. As a result, this year the crowd numbered only "several hundred," according to a Boulder Camera story. Nevertheless, many defiantly lit up at 4:20 p.m.

President Obama is scheduled to speak on the campus next Tuesday. I hope this November i.d.s will be required to vote in the election he is campaigning for, but don't expect that to happen in liberal Boulder, and certainly not in Denver, where the ACORN types (by whatever name they are now calling themselves) flourish.
Here is the link to the Boulder Camera story, which includes a video of the goings-on:  http://www.dailycamera.com/cu-news/ci_20441285/420-cu-boulder-closure-protests-marijuana

The Onion also weighed in on the story, with one fictitious observer noting "This is what's wrong with today's college students. In my day, we burned down the dean's home and he learned not to mess with our drugs." http://www.theonion.com/articles/university-shuts-down-marijuana-rally,27993/"They won
