The Obligatory Bobby Jindal-Gate Continues Posting

Honestly? I would rather be getting a root canal or would rather be masturbating with 40 grit sandpaper, (SurpriseDoh) than have to Blog about this. However, If I do not, I won’t get the hits and people won’t read this Blog and I will not make any money. Hence the post. Waiting But don’t expect any earth shattering analysis here.

For starters, Jindal’s story on the boat and the bureaucrat; was supposedly a fib. Then you’ve got Michael Steele offering Jindal “Slum Love,” (Ann Coulter made the same joke..)

Ann Althouse is worried about racism. Though supposedly she’s prone to making those kind of comments herself. (H/T to this blogger here, although his hosting service is got some issues.)

Anyhow, this is all about silly to me personally, I just don’t see all the rumpus myself. I dont know I mean, Yeah, Jindal might be a bit stiff and got a southern drawl. But hey, at least he is genuine. More than I can say for people like John Kerry and Al Gore. Rolling Eyes

So, as far as I am concerned this whole thing is just plain stupid to me.

Patrick Ruffini makes a very valid point about "Joe The Plumber"

I hate to say it, But I have to agree with this:

A movement self-confident in its place in American society would not have made Joe the Plumber a bigger story than he actually was. Since its very beginnings as a movement, conservatism has bought into liberalism’s dominant place in the American political process. They controlled all the major institutions: the media, academia, Hollywood, the Democratic Party, large segments of the Republican Party, and consequently, the government. Liberalism’s image of conservatives in the ’50s and ’60s as paranoid Birchers gave birth to a conservative movement self-conscious of its minority status. As in any tribe that is small in number and can’t fully trust its most natural allies (i.e. the business community or the Republican Party), the meta-debate of who is inside and outside the tribe is magnified exponentially.

I have to agree with Patrick here. (I feel like I am agree with myself! ;)) Besides, Joe, with the bald head business, gives the G.O.P. that whole Nazi Skinhead look. Which is not the image that the Republican Party want to give to the American people.

I mean, do not misunderstand me here, I am all for the sticking up for the rights of the Anglo-Saxon Americans, but I really do not think we should be doing this without the typical visual stereo-types and demagoguery that is so prevalent on the left.

….besides, the dude is not even a real plumber!

Ann Coulter insults Pelosi and mocks mentally retarded people….

While I think it is funny that Ann mocked Pelosi, I think the wording was not good at all.

But as long as the nation is obsessed with historic milestones, is no one going to remark on what a great country it is where a mentally retarded woman can become speaker of the house?

As a nephew of a developmentally disabled aunt, or as Ann referred to, Mentally Retarded Aunt; (My Mom’s younger sister) I think it would behove Miss. Coulter to not use such terms.

For one, it insults those who are responsible for caring for people with this sort of an disability, Like my Mom;  it also belittles their situation. Not that Ann cares, she’s one of the “beautiful people”, aptly described by the rock musician Marilyn Manson.

So, on this one, I give Miss Coulter a big fat red F.

Speaking of Monkey Business…….

Anybody care to take a stab at interpreting this?:

Media baron Rupert Murdoch issued an urgent internal communication late Monday, warning his staff: “We are in the midst of a phase of history in which nations will be redefined and their futures fundamentally altered.”

The dramatic call comes as markets continue their plunge and the future of media becomes increasingly muddled.

“Many people will be under extreme pressure and many companies mortally wounded,” Murdoch declared.

“Our competitors will be sorely tempted to take the easy beat, to reduce quality in the search for immediate dividends.”

He continued: “Let me be very clear about our company: where others might step back from their commitment to their viewers, their users, readers and customers – we will renew ours.

“The direction of the business now and over the next few years will define the character of our company for decades.”

Honestly, I have zero clue that that is all about. Anyone????

Funny Headline of the Day

Taxing pot could become a political toking point…

😆 I must confess that’s one the more funnier headlines I’ve seen in a while. It links here.

Who let this rather hilarious headline fly? None other than Matt Drudge.

Update: I was mistaken, ooops! LA Times originally published that funny headline and Matt Drudge picked it up. Guess I should check the story link, before I publish. 🙄 Ooops… 😳

Just the same, I still found it to be quite funny. 😀

Black Fascist Liberals 1, New York Post 0

Looks like there is more “Monkey Business” over at the New York Post:

As the Chairman of the New York Post, I am ultimately responsible for what is printed in its pages. The buck stops with me.

Last week, we made a mistake. We ran a cartoon that offended many people. Today I want to personally apologize to any reader who felt offended, and even insulted.

Over the past couple of days, I have spoken to a number of people and I now better understand the hurt this cartoon has caused. At the same time, I have had conversations with Post editors about the situation and I can assure you – without a doubt – that the only intent of that cartoon was to mock a badly written piece of legislation. It was not meant to be racist, but unfortunately, it was interpreted by many as such.

We all hold the readers of the New York Post in high regard and I promise you that we will seek to be more attuned to the sensitivities of our community.

Honestly, when are the people of this wonderful country of ours going to stop sucking up to and cowering in fear to the “Shoe Shine Boy” of “White Guilt” in this country?

I know when…. When Monkeys fly.  🙄

….and by the way there Mr. “Interloper”. I do not feel a twinge of guilt for what happened to your race 300 years ago, nor do I feel a twinge of guilt over what happened in the south in the before 1964. I had nothing do with it, neither did ANY of my family members. So, yeah, you can put me in the column of those who refuse to submit to “White Guilt” and the curse of post-racial racialism.  Personally, Mr. “Interloper” I wish that dead chimp, would have been you. 😡

Remember folks, these are OBAMA’S Supporters. Remember this come 2010 and 2012, or this country will end up just like South Africa, broke and run by “Those people”.

Others, mostly fascist liberals who pander to White Guilt and HATE freedom of speech and love to play the  race card: Alan Colmes’ Liberaland, City Room, Gawker, Gothamist, Political Machine, New York Times, Tower Ticker, Patterico’s Pontifications, Michael Calderone’s Blogs, New York Times, On Deadline, TheZoo, Salon Ben Smith Think Progress and Hoffmania!

Is the thrill gone with Obama on MSNBC?

I saw this tonight, and sort of thought the same thing….:

I can hardly believe what I’m watching on MSNBC right now. Chris Matthews is almost critical — no, not even almost, he’s flat-out critical of President Obama on the economic front. He mentions an earlier conversation with CNBC’s manic stock analyst Jim Cramer and a University of Maryland professor (Peter Morici?) knocking Obama for several economic decisions — that the stimulus bill needed more real infrastructure and less pork, that the housing bill isn’t inspiring confidence and doesn’t look like it will work, and that no one has faith in Tim Geithner’s solution for the banks.

Howard Fineman of Newsweek says Obama has been “grim and a little distant at the same time . . . Tim Geithner hasn’t inspired any confidence anywhere, as far as I can tell.”

Matthews: “He seems like Barney Fife to me.”

Eugene Robinson: “I actually referred to him as Doogie Howser, Treasury Secretary, and I think it’s a little unfair.” Much laughter ensues.

More Fineman: “Despite his high approval rating and obvious intellect and goodwill, he hasn’t quite yet seemed to convey the sense that he knows the way forward and that he can get us there . . . I thought the first fifteen minutes of this show were devastating. Not that Jim Cramer is the only person they have to convince, but they have to convince people that they know what they’re doing, that they’re not just feeling their way forward.” Robinson points out that they are feeling their way forward.

Matthews: “I thought 8,000 was the floor, and it looks like 6,000 is the floor. People are angry, I’m getting angry.
