When Armchair GM’s run the country

No Comments »

This is what happens when you have someone who thinks it’s cool to be President because he wears his hat backwards or has some stupid Office of the President-Elect. You get some stooge who like every other Joe Q. Proletariat, uses the brilliant tactic of hindsight to get the results they want, but in the end they’re just a some schmuck who knows nothing at all.

This is why you have Leon Panetta as the head of the CIA…Leon Panetta…are you crapping me Obama?? Clinton’s ex OMB Director is going to run your CIA? The closest thing I can see that could remotely qualify him is work on the President’s Commission of Foreign Language and International Studies and was Lieutenant in the Army (hey, it’s from Wikipedia, so IT has to be true).

And yet, another brave Clinton pick from Hopey McChangey Pants.

The Open-Minded Left

It starts to get to be too much to argue with over things like this, but it’s pathetic a “news” orginization would ban anyone just because they’re critical of the media and their cheerleading of a man who just got elected President. These mutants were thrashing Bush from the get-go and recall that one of their own (Chris Matthew) opined it was a shame that 9/11 didn’t happen under Clinton’s watch.

Any dang way, from Drudge:

Coulter was set to unveil her new book, GUILTY. 

But one network insider claims it was the book’s theme — a brutal examination of liberal bias in the new era — that got executives to dis-invite the controversialist. 

“We are just not interested in anyone so highly critical of President-elect Obama, right now,” a TODAY insider reveals. “It’s such a downer. It’s just not the time, and it’s not what our audience wants, either.”

If nothing else, this proves the media has as thin of a skin as Barack Obama does. It’s such a downer….give me a damn break.

One of the more unimaginative defensive schemes of the past season gets you fired.

Top candidates to replace Sanders:

  1. Winston Moss- Current Assistant Head Coach of Packers
  2. Sean McDermott- Defensive Backs Coach- Philadelphia Eagles
  3. Mike Nolan- Recent 49ers Head Coach-Previous Defensive Coordinator experience
  4. Sal Sunseri- Defensive Line Coach- Carolina Panthers
  5. Jim Washburn- Defensive Line Coach- Tennessee Titans
Here’s to a new coordinator who believes in creating pressure and not hope and pray for the defensive line to carry the day play after play when the horses aren’t there.

I blame YOU

Remember that TIME magazine “person” of the year in 2006…er, You?

Well, I think it’s becoming blase to blame Democrats or Republicans for the trouble coming out of Washington and I think the person who ought to be blamed is you.

That’s right, YOU. YOU are the one who keeps putting Ted Kennedy into office. YOU are the person who keeps voting Yes on referendums that keeps raising taxes on everything. YOU are the person that keeps corrupt and sleaze-bag politicians in power. YOU are the one keeps falling for every Harry Hardluck and Sally Sobstory that the media wants to present to you. 

I really wish YOU would get your act together. You know the trillion dollar “stimulus” they’re talking about in D.C? That’s aimed to help YOU. I didn’t realize you were so damn expensive.

Spending our money=Stimulus

I don’t know, but I doubt even the most exuberant Hopey-Mc-Changey acolyte really understands what’s going to happen in 2009 with the Democrats in charge of everything.

Gov. Jim Doyle joined four other Democratic governors Friday in calling for a $1 trillion federal economic stimulus package that would include $250 billion for education.

Doyle and the others - Massachusetts Gov. Deval Patrick, New Jersey Gov. Jon Corzine, New York Gov. David Paterson and Ohio Gov. Ted Strickland - said in a conference call with reporters that federal assistance for education is essential to avoid deep cuts in cash-strapped states.

So they want to “give” the middle class a $150 billion tax cut (gosh, that’s so nice of them), but will spend the other $850 billion. Yep, such a great trade off.

Nobody’s worthless Senator but ours

I heard about this on the ol’ radio earlier this week and I really shouldn’t be surprised that one of the most banal members of the Senate would come up with such an inane idea.

TEXT messaging is a wonderful business to be in: about 2.5 trillion messages will have been sent from cellphones worldwide this year. The public assumes that the wireless carriers’ costs are far higher than they actually are, and profit margins are concealed by a heavy curtain.

Senator Herb Kohl, Democrat of Wisconsin and the chairman of the Senate antitrust subcommittee, wanted to look behind the curtain. He was curious about the doubling of prices for text messages charged by the major American carriers from 2005 to 2008, during a time when the industry consolidated from six major companies to four.

For a man who made his millions and then sold out the family business, I always chuckle when Herb Kohl talks about profit margins. Afterall his little basketball team, while not setting the world on fire (since the 80’s that is) is supposedly worth $260 million.

Now being a supporter of capitalism, I certainly don’t begrudge the man from making money and owning a basketball team, but the problem with Herb Kohl is this incessant haranguing on other’s “profit margins” all the while charging the people of Milwaukee exorbitant ticket prices for such an inferior product.

So Senator Kohl, what about the average profit margins for a game for your Milwaukee Bucks? It’s apparently $6.50 for a bottle of MGD…six dollars for a bottle of something you could get six of for the same price from the grocery store? On top of the hundreds of dollars it costs for a decent ticket?

No wonder basketball is third and falling..in my book anyway.

What Atheism Means

With the likes of Michael Newdow, it’s no longer professing a belief in their faith that there is no God, but just being a litigious douchebag who should be worrying about his patients and clients (if we’re to believe his bio).

I’m sure in the brand spanking new 2009, people like Michael Newdow will be given a fair shake now. Afterall, the Messiah is about hope and change and maybe, just maybe, he will give hope to all the atheists out there who have been wandering the desert for so very long.

Maybe then they can be like a lot of people who just keep their beliefs about God or whatever they believe is happening in the universe to themselves.

But I suppose even that requires more faith…

You have it backwards my Russian friend…

Texas part of or influenced by Mexico? The midwest being part of Canada?? This is what happens to people when they’ve been under the spell of communism for decades and are still have no damn clue as to what their country stands for anymore.

That’s not to say that the old Soviets have not had an influence on the modern politial left. From the comments: Read the rest of this entry »

The Detroit Lions Explained

No Comments »

It’s simple, it’s the Curse of Bobby Lane.

In 1958, after leading the Lions to 3 NFL Championships and providing Detroit nearly decade of Hall of Fame play, the Lions traded Bobby Layne. Bobby was injured during the last championship season and the Lions thought he was through and wanted to get what they could for him. According to Legend, as he was leaving for Pittsburgh Bobby said that Detroit “would not win for 50 years”.

This makes sense for a team who in their most recent past hired a guy who was just a color commentator and had no previous front office experience.

And here’s to them keeping things all mucked up in Delta City.

The Obama Economic Plan

No Comments »

I think I’ve stumbled upon the way Barack Obama is going to “create” all those new jobs he’s been talking about. See, it’s not so hard to do so if the people who already have some of those jobs aren’t coming back:

ZINAPECUARO, Mexico — Once again, the immigrants are returning to this town in their Cadillacs and Escalades with the Illinois license plates, trunks filled with Christmas presents.

Their annual December homecoming has always been a victory lap of sorts, a testimonial to the success they enjoy in the United States and want to share with relatives who welcome them back with open arms.

Rafael García is back too, but not for a vacation.

He’s back for good.

In a sign of how the American dream has lost its luster this Christmas season, the stream of Mexicans making holiday visits has been joined by a trickle of citizens returning permanently to towns like Zinapecuaro as jobs disappear in Chicago and other U.S. cities.

Dang, we’ve lost our luster with illegals now. Gosh, I hope the next President can do something to change all that. Maybe his super duper work with ACORN and housing will help keep people like Rafael around…

In some respects, García was pushed out of Chicago, where he was working illegally. All but six of the 18 laborers at his construction company lost their jobs with the real estate bust. García survived, but his hours were cut to the point that he and his wife barely covered rent and child care.

And he was in Chicago to boot. How on earth could Barack Obama let this happen to this illegal immigrant? A man who worked in his own city for crying out loud! How could he turn his back on a man just in search of the American dream who now has to slink back to Mexico with his Spiderman and bullfighting DVD’s and and half a bottle of whiskey?

What a shame Barack Obama has brought upon poor Rafael Garcia. But relax dear Americans, for you will probably be asked to fill in for the Rafael’s of the world by doing the jobs you were told you didn’t want to do to begin with.
