Mmmvelopes



What do you get when you cross an envelope with bacon?

Bacon-Flavored Envelopes aka Mmmvelopes.

J&D's, the creators of Mmmvelopes, don't think envelopes should taste like armpit.

Good for them. I'm pro-bacon.

Turkey Thief



Busted! Idaho Dog Steals Thanksgiving Turkey

In a scene right out of The Christmas Story, this pooch was photographed as he ran off with the family turkey.

I'll bet he did a bit of overindulging himself.

:-)

Cat Blog Friday



For this Cat Blog Friday...

... a cat who overindulged at Thanksgiving dinner.

'Fess up, people, many of you still feel stuffed today. I know I do.

Happy Friday, everybody!

Sarah, Not Plain And Tall



From the American Thinker comes this surprising piece from a reformed liberal...

The Wilding Of Sarah Palin

At least Robin of Berkeley is big enough to admit she was wrong.

No Smoke - No Fire



NYTimes: We Won't Publish "Statements That Were Never Intended For the Public Eye."

The security of the country never stopped the NY Times from leaking sensitive documents, but all of a sudden they're getting morals?

Move along, sheep. There's nothing to see here.

Please.

This is a pathetic attempt to hide the fact that anthropogenic global warming is, and always has been, a hoax.

The Chicken Littles are coming home to roost.

Would Obama bow to the King of cats?

Happy Friday, everybody!

Timeo Danaos Et Dona Ferentes*



A little humor and a little literature today because basically I'm tired of sorting through the veritable mountain of BO's daily screw ups. Ugh!

Anyway...

How different Virgil's Aeneid would've been if the Trojans had had malware detection software. (As always, click to enlarge the image)

And for the curious...

*"Timeo Danaos et dona ferentes" is a Latin phrase from Virgil's Aeneid (II, 49). It means "I fear the Danaans (Greeks) even if they bring gifts" but is often paraphrased to English as "Beware of Greeks bearing gifts".

Leggo Your Ego



I didn't want this piece from Jeff Jacoby at The Boston Globe to go unmentioned...

Obama's Swelling Ego

Here's a very telling excerpt:

"I think that I’m a better speechwriter than my speechwriters,’’ Obama told campaign aides when he was running for the White House. “I know more about policies on any particular issue than my policy directors. And I’ll tell you right now that . . . I’m a better political director than my political director.’’

The comments at the end are a hoot. How can anyone with two neurons to rub together defend this over-the-top narcissism? Well, they are Obama voters...

Code Pink Traitors



From Big Hollywood comes this report that, if true, is quite a shocker...

Jane Fonda: Obama Funder Jodie Evans Met With Taliban; Code Pink Gives Terrorists Direct Line To Obama

And they have the audacity to accuse the Tea Party protestors of being traitors?

Arrrggghhh!

Some days it's hard to keep The BLOG G-rated.

Submissive-In-Chief



How Low Will He Go? Obama Gives Japan's Emperor Akihito A Wow Bow

How's that hopey changey thing working for you, dumbass Obama voters?

Good gravy!

If this doesn't make you see that the sky isn't green, nothing will!

Veterans Day




IT IS THE SOLDIER

It is the Soldier, not the minister
Who has given us freedom of religion.

It is the Soldier, not the reporter
Who has given us freedom of the press.

It is the Soldier, not the poet
Who has given us freedom of speech.

It is the Soldier, not the campus organizer
Who has given us freedom to protest.

It is the Soldier, not the lawyer
Who has given us the right to a fair trial.

It is the Soldier, not the politician
Who has given us the right to vote.

It is the Soldier who salutes the flag,
Who serves beneath the flag,
And whose coffin is draped by the flag,
Who allows the protester to burn the flag.

Charles M. Province,
WWII Veteran

Dunne Is Done



Anita Dunne, the White House News Media Communications Chief who boasted to the foreign media...

We 'Control' News Media

is stepping down from her post at the end of the month.

Another one bites the dust.

Yet we have miles to go before we sleep.

Very Telling



World leaders past and present will be in Berlin today for the 20th anniversary of the fall of communist repression's most visible symbol, the Berlin Wall...

...all except Obama who was too busy to attend.

Too busy to stand up for the anniversary of the triumph of freedom over communism?

Berlin Wall Blunder

Another in a long list of BO "blunders" that will largely go under-reported by the MSM.

But, if this doesn't make it painfully obvious that BO's skewed priorities have little in common with most Americans, then you are just not paying attention.

Hardly Working



Obama Snubs Ft. Hood To Relax At Camp David

Maybe it was all the Native American festivities that wore out the Baby Commander In Chief. Have a baba and get your rest.

Sheesh.

Can you imagine the media uproar if President Bush had pulled a stunt like this?

Out Of Touch



Obama's Frightening Insensitivity Following Fort Hood Shooting

The MSM won't show it, but you can still see the video at...

Clueless Commander-In-Chief

I caught it live and just couldn't believe my eyes. In my opinion, BO isn't clueless. He just can't fake a sentiment he doesn't have in him.

Cat License



No, it's not Friday, but I couldn't resist sharing this bit of insanity from Massachusetts...

Having More Than 3 Cats Now Requires A License

The town of Dudley has voted to add language to a town bylaw that will make it illegal to own more than three cats without a kennel license, though Selectman Steven Sullivan said housing three felines was already a violation.

So, if your cat gives birth to a litter of kittens, you are in violation of the law in this town of cat-hating boobs.

This is governmental tyranny, folks.

Will people have to resort to cat camoflage in order to avoid incurring excessive taxation and fines?

Normally I would insert a snarky remark such as, "only in Massachusetts", but with today's state of affairs, it can happen in your town too.

To Sir With Censorship



LOTR Film Star Sir Ian McKellen Admits To Ripping Out Hotel Bible Sections Against Homosexuality

Censorship and the destruction of someone else's property...

Nooooooo, not Gandalf!

I'm afraid so.

Why can't actors just... well, act?

The Cow And The Ice Cream

THE COW AND THE ICE CREAM

ONE OF THE BEST EXPLANATIONS OF WHY OBAMA WON THE ELECTION

--From a teacher in the Nashville area



"We are worried about 'the cow' when it is all about the 'Ice Cream.'

The most eye-opening civics lesson I ever had was while teaching third grade this year...

The presidential election was heating up and some of the children showed an interest.

I decided we would have an election for a class president.

We would choose our nominees. They would make a campaign speech and the class would vote.

To simplify the process, candidates were nominated by other class members.

We discussed what kinds of characteristics these students should have.

We got many nominations and from those, Jamie and Olivia were picked to run for the top spot.

The class had done a great job in their selections. Both candidates were good kids.

I thought Jamie might have an advantage because he got lots of parental support.

I had never seen Olivia's mother.

The day arrived when they were to make their speeches.

Jamie went first.

He had specific ideas about how to make our class a better place. He ended by promising to do his very best.

Everyone applauded and he sat down.

Now is was Olivia's turn to speak.

Her speech was concise.

She said, "If you will vote for me, I will give you ice cream."

She sat down.

The class went wild. "Yes! Yes!

We want ice cream."

She surely would say more. She did not have to.

A discussion followed. How did she plan to pay for the ice cream?

She wasn't sure.

Would her parents buy it or would the class pay for it.

She didn't know.

The class really didn't care.

All they were thinking about was ice cream.

Jamie was forgotten.. Olivia won by a landslide.

Every time Barack Obama opened his mouth he offered ice cream and 52 percent of the people reacted like nine year olds.

They want ice cream.

The other 48 percent know they're going to have to feed the cow and clean up the mess."

This is the ice cream Obama promised us!




Remember, the government cannot give anything to anyone --

that they have not first taken away from someone else......
