Well at least now that we are all forced to have health "insurance," no one will ever get sick again and we can all live forever, no matter what.

I feel motivated to go find my local republican party office and volunteer, for some reason.

Best thing I saw all day, and even posted it to my Facebook:

The Supreme Court also legalized slavery.

Welp, I am done making predictions, because everything I have predicted since Obama has been wrong.

I figured the American people would never be dumb enough to elect a guy with absolutely no executive experience, and was never in charge of anything... wrong.

I figured a health care plan that was drafted in secret and so big it hadn't even been read by the people voted on it would never pass... it did.

I figured the supreme court would never uphold a law require people to buy a service.... wrong.

So now I figure this will galvanize the majority of people to vote obama out, but I aint putting a dog in that hunt. I think I am jinxing things.

Dummy, why don't you predict an Obama landslide and be wrong about that?

Personally, I think the best solution is an Obama win in 2012. Romney is a RINO; no sense trying to fool ourselves he's any different from, oh, I dunno, John Kerry or Teddy Kennedy. Of course it'd be nice having an R in the white house to appoint conservative SCOTUS judges...oh wait.

Here's some mirroring of the past events and present day:

The country hated Nixon... we ended up with Carter. The people hated Bush, we ended up with Obama.

The economy tanked under Carter, people were miserable, and he was a one-termer and we ended up with Reagan. The economy is tanking under Obama, people are miserable, November is coming, and Romney vaguely resembles 1980's Reagan in physical appearance.

Just as we couldn't have a Carter without a Nixon, and couldn't get a Reagan without a Carter, maybe....

DHS instructs armed Border Patrol agents to "run away, hide, and as a last resort, throw things" if they are confronted by someone with a gun.

Can't make this shit up.

Morgan Freeman thinks Obama's got too much cracker in him.

In related news, Morgan Freeman is apparently a huge racist.

Well, he has a point. What does Obama have in common with the majority of American blacks? Seriously.

* His father is Kenyan---i.e., EAST African. East Africans are quite different from West Africans, which is what American blacks are, genetically.
* His mother is white.

So genetically, he is closer to white people than American blacks.

* He lived for a while with his mother and her 2nd husband, an Indonesian, in Indonesia.
* He lived most of the rest of his life, until adulthood, with his white grandparents in Hawaii.

Again, this is NOTHING like the experience of most Americans in general, let alone blacks.

Do you remember that bit on the Chappele Show?
"Negrodamus, why do white people love Wayne Brady so much?"
"White people love Wayne Brady because he makes...Bryant Gumbel look like Malcolm X."

That's how we wound up with Barack Obama. He makes Wayne Brady look like Malcolm X.

If anyone "questions the timing," remind them how Fahrenheit 911 came out right before the election in 2004.

The economy is fucked, and Obama can't save it.

I think the most interesting part of that article is of the three guys, two are Dems. They're essentially saying that the biggest obstacle to our country getting back on track is the Dems. Not because of ignorance or anything, but because they can't make the changes that really need to be made without cutting their own throats politically.

How can you reform entitlements when your core base of voters lives off of them?

Stupid Obama ads all over Youtube. I wonder if they even charge him anything for it.

Anyway, the ad says Romney will "overturn" Roe v. Wade. Apparently that's something the President can do now: overturn Supreme Court rulings.

Sununu attacks Obama.

Here's my favorite part:
In response, Lis Smith, a spokeswoman for the Obama campaign, said the Romney campaign "has officially gone off the deep end."

"The question is what else they'll pull to avoid answering serious questions about Romney's tenure at Bain Capital and investments in foreign tax havens and offshore accounts," she said in an email to reporters. "This meltdown and over-the-top rhetoric won't make things better. It only calls attention to how desperate they are to change the conversation."


Is that so, Ms. Smith? Perhaps you'd be kind enough to look back upon Obama's run for office, and his first term, and explain to us why he's spent millions covering up his past?

Why is it ok to look into Romney's past, but not Obama's?

Awesome. And I always loved The Critic.

It is literally the only TV show I've ever owned/bought.

Seriously, that speech could honestly be the worst speech ever given by any politician. Ever.
