Same as it ever was.....

stop me if you've heard this one:

the US government is given warnings and credible information regarding the movements and extremist ideology of an Al Qaeda operative, who is determined to carry out a terrorist attack against this country on a airplane.

and then the government didn't do anything about the information.

and then the Al Qaeda operative attacks a plane in the United States.

now for the punchline: no, i'm not talking about 2001. i'm talking about now.

thanks for proving to me that it doesN't matter which jackass has the job, i'm probably still not that safe.

I'M TALKING TO YOU, NAPOLITANO CIA!

this cliche is here to stay!

and now, we get down to it.

remember when you were in elementary school and adults tried to convince you that if someone of the opposite sex was being mean to you, that it should be overlooked because that just meant he or she liked you a whole lot?

now hold on Cindy Cynical-Pants! that may have sounded like some old blame shifting, DV-grooming, bullshit at the time but here's something to consider that puts it all in perspective:

over on Free Republic, the birthers are talking about how they wanna check out the President's penis!

The only other thing that hit me was that Sinclair said BO was not circumcised. When my son was born in a hospital that was done as a matter of routine without even consulting us. Would the same be for Hawaii? OTOH People born at home or in some other cultures are not circumcised.

thecodont:

A relative of mine was born (in a hospital) a couple of years after BO's alleged birth date. He was circumcised also (as a matter of routine, not according to any family request).

afraidfortherepublic:

My son was born in June of 1961 in a hospital in CA, and the nurses released us because of miscommunication in a day and a half before the circumcision was done. We had to go back to the doctor’s office to have it done a week later, and the doctor was NOT HAPPY. My second son was born in the same hospital 4 years later. I don’t remember them asking me about it. Routine procedure for little boys.

hoosiermama:

Wish we had someone to make a phone call to the hospitols in HI and ask if they routinely do circumcism and when that practice started.

MHGinTN:

You might want to make that call to a Canadian hospital ...

MHGinTN:

No...it would have been in Kenya....not Canada.

Natural Born 54

I am having a vision of a court room scene. The judge turns to O sitting in the witness chair to his left and says “I am sorry, Mr. President, but I am going to have to ask you to stand and drop trou .....”

how porntastic is THAT? you can almost hear Natural Born 54's heavy breathing as he typed about his vision of seing Obama naked from the waist down.

actually, it kind of reminds me of something...

i cannot believe it's finally come to this, something i've often heard talked about within the black community but never actually seen outside of it. do the birthers really see nothing freakishly familiar about their belief that they have a right to see the President's sex organs???

i don't know about you, but this post-racial america is killing me on the inside.

well, look who's back.

let's celebrate with some racially targeted liver damage, shall we?

What's WRONG with these People?? [office of the department of redundancy]

boy, boy, boy, BOY! it just keeps getting better and better with South Carolina. Little, backwards, broke-ass, dreadlock and gorilla hating South Carolina.

now, this interesting little tid-bit! you know how lots and lots of people have been wishing Mark Sanford would just disappear.

WELL, HE DONE GONE AND DONE IT, YA'LL!!!!



(AP) Where is South Carolina's governor?

Gov. Mark Sanford's wife said Monday she did not know the location of the two-term Republican chief executive. Sanford's staff declined to disclose where he was.

First lady Jenny Sanford told The Associated Press her husband has been gone for several days and she doesn't know where. She said she was not concerned. Jenny Sanford said the governor said he needed time away from their children to write something.

Sanford spokesman Joel Sawyer declined to discuss where the governor was. Sawyer told The Associated Press that Sanford was taking time to "recharge" after his failed fight against federal stimulus money.

Lt. Gov. Andre Bauer said he didn't know where Sanford is but said he had not been put in charge.

what, is he on FMLA or something? how does he just split from his job, not put the lt. gov in charge, and fail to mention to his wife where he went?

it's getting awfully peculiar a little ways down the interstate....stay tuned.

so much for a clean criminal record

more good news from south carolina! there may be a lot going on in the palmetto state that leaves alot to be desired. sure sure sure, the schools are crap, the governor is crazy, and nobody likes gorillas. but there is one thing you simply cannot take away from them jokers down there: they do NOT tolerate anyone messing with The Scoob!

CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- A Carowinds employee was arrested this weekend after allegedly helping someone win a stuffed animal.

Joshua Long, 19, is charged with breach of trust with fraudulent intent, according to a York County Sheriff's Office report.

Deputies say Long is accused of helping someone cheat on a game and win a giant Scooby Doo worth $109.

According to the report, the game involved flipping a ring so that it landed on a bottle. The alleged incident happened Saturday afternoon.

The person who won the Scooby Doo was not charged. Investigators say it's unclear whether the two knew each other.

now, i know what you're thinking. you're thinking how in the world could a stuffed animal be worth $109 and why would anyone want a Scooby Doo, they don't even play the cartoons on tv anymore!

does it qualify as irony that the business accusing an employee of theft is ripping off customers by having them play impossible carny games to try to win a stuffed animal they've marked the price up on?

i know one thing for certain: it seems a wee bit heavy-handed of Carowinds to have this kid arrested over something like this. i mean, it's not like he grew dreadlocks or anything!

cmon, Carowinds! where's the love!

What's WRONG with these People??

as you have probably heard, the prez and the missus had another fantastic date night, taking in a show in NYC. here i was thinking it was a nice, romantic moment shared by two people clearly in love...well, thank the LERD for Rick Santorum, who let me know it not only served as an example but...kinda....overshot the mark?



Take it Rick!

Number one, I think it's great that the president has a date night with his wife. He's a role model.He's a role model in particular, whether he likes it or not, in the African-American community.

right on, right on...

Here we have a president of the United States who says that marriage is cool. You have respect for your wife, and you treat her with the respect and dignity that she deserves. And she is part of this team. And it's not just part of professional team, but it's also part of a personal, romantic team. I think that's all great. So I think it's important that he keeps having his date night.

yes, that is great. especially since we've never had a married president before. wait...wait, we have, but black people haven't been influenced by the marriages of white people. we only respond when we see other black people doing something. kinda like running away from a club shooting.

wait, what?

I think he has to realize that flying to New York is self-indulgent. Go down to the corner bar and have a drink, a shot and a beer. It does not matter where you go with your wife, is that it's with your wife. That's really the point... I would make the argument, the simpler the date, the more normal it is.

...did this dude just suggest that the PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES should take THE FIRST LADY to a bar and just have a drink? why in the world would the man holding the most important office in our country do that, Rick?


It connects to people. Here is what you do. Here is how you do it. And it is not going to Broadway. All right, once in awhile, you do something special. But it is mundane that really makes the marriage special, but because you are with your wife the mundane isn't mundane. It's special.

so, by saying connects with people, he means black people. because black people don't go to new york and they don't go to broadway plays. and a black woman is not going to think it very special to fly her to another city and treat her to a broadway show! nah, nah, naaaaaaaah....here's what you do....here's how you do it: take her to Smitty's for a couple shots of aristocrat, then head on back to the criz-zib, play some big daddy kane, and work it OUT.

huh.

you know i just cannot take it. i cannot even begin to climb that mountain that this man has laid out in front of me. i can only say a few things before i completely degrade and start screaming at my computer:

1) rick santorum is no expert on marriage and no one asked his advice. so what's with the paternalistic, condescending attitude? why does this guy, who's about the same age as Obama, and who lost his re-election bid think he can tell the President how to date his wife?

2) by suggesting the president merely go to a bar for some shots instead of taking his wife to nyc to broadway is absurd. and i know he isn're really going to go there with something being "self-indulgent" when Dubya used Air Force One regularly to travel to and from his private ranch in Crawford, TX. do you now how much it costs to use Air Force One per hour? over $50,000. it's a 2 hour flight from DC. and he visited Crawford 77 times during his administration. do the math.

3) this script follows all too closely to what many people of color have experienced in this society by our paler, well-meaning neighbors. it's patronizing, infuriating, and biased thinking based on racist notions of the black community.

4) with regards to the usual complaints at this junction of any race conversation of someone "always playing the race card" i have this to say: if you don't want me to play the race card, quit dealing from that particular deck.

sexiest gums in the game

so the T-1000 exists after all? luckily, we can stop it with cough syrup and save humanity.

maybe your sanctimony sucked the oxygen out of the building....did you think about that?

next they'll say she was behind the Atlanta Child Murders

ok, so just so i'm following: first the MSM gave a platform so the right can say Sotomayor is racist. now the MSM are asking if her choice is due to her ethnicity?

man, it's hard out here for a G.
