Well, I just couldn’t resist. Everybody with a pulse probably already knows about this, but I couldn’t sleep at night if I didn’t provide my loyal readers with easy access to the messiah‘s history-making appearance on Leno. Ha! Good one, messiah! He’s a funny guy, that leader of the free world. A regular guy, just [...]

Check out this video compilation showing some news coverage of the growing Tea Party movement. I’m not sure if the messiah can give enough fabulous speeches to quell the rising tide.

Turns out we won’t need the services of the good Dr. Kevorkian for those AIG executives after all. Senator Charles Grassley has retracted his call for them to either apologize or kill themselves. He’s actually after remorse, repentance, and contrition. Rest in peace, Dr. Kevorkian.

Certain esteemed *ahem* members of the US Senate and the Obama administration are shocked — shocked, I say!! — to learn that AIG is using some of the taxpayer-funded bailout money it received to pay for executive bonuses. Here are the numbers: bailout money received by AIG: $170,000,000,000bonus money paid to AIG execs: $165,000,000 This [...]

President Obama is slated to release the federal budget for 2009 today. It’s a $3.7 trillion budget with a $1.75 trillion deficit. With 300 million people living in the United States, that works out to well over $11,000 dollars in spending for each American. Let’s pretend that this year the government is going to give [...]

Did you watch President Obama’s address last night? I had the TV on but I didn’t pay that much attention. I was too distracted by Nancy Pelosi’s antics. Sitting behind him, she was SO happy to be there she just couldn’t stay in her seat! Next time she should try a Xanax. Also, her burlap [...]

Okay, these video clips are a little long, but they’re really worth watching if you can spare the time. CNBC’s Rick Santelli had a “Joe the Plumber” moment this week when he indulged in this rant from the floor of the Chicago Board of Trade: To which the White House Press Secretary, Robert Gibbs, responded [...]

As I write, I have a tissue hanging out of one of my nostrils. At this time it’s the left nostril, because that’s the one that won’t stop dripping. However, it changes sides every so often, so I have to stay on top of my game. I really hate having a cold, and I’ve got [...]

This week was Mini-Me’s Valentine’s Day party at school. Oh, did I mention that in the midst of an exacerbation of JCWS — that’s June Cleaver Wannabe Syndrome — I signed up to be the Grand Poobah Room Mother for Mini-Me’s class? (By the way, when I’m using the possessive for Mini-Me, should I call [...]

Watch the Messiah in action as he works his magic on this poor college student. I’m not really even sure where to begin here. Aside from the fact that this guy is a total spaz, he clearly feels entitled to some sort of benefits simply because he’s managed continuous employment for 4-1/2 years. Wow. Why [...]
