Live From New York
A discussion is brewing about the SNL (Saturday Night Live) skits where a white guy (Fred Armisen) played the part of presidential hopeful Barack H. Obama, a black guy. Because of the race reversal, the skits are being termed "racist" in some circles. Guess what, thin-skinned whiners, it's called satire, you dimwits!!!!! Get over it. We're tellin' ya folks, this racial thing is gonna turn stupider and stupider real fast.
We saw the skits; they were "hill-aryous."
If you missed the 2/23/08 skit, watch it here, Watch
Watch the 3/01/08 skit Here
A Total SNAFU
Michigan and Florida held "early primaries." An early primary is one held before "super Tuesday." Because those states' legislatures voted to hold an early primary against the DNC rules, the DNC decided not to sanction either state's votes and, therefore, would not award delegates to the national convention. Both Democratic candidates, Clinton and Obama, agreed to the rule and vowed to refrain from campaigning in the said states. Were they thinking, "Why meet the people of these states? There is nothing in it for us." They held true to their vow and didn't go to either state.
Hillary won Florida and, now that the the race is so close and she is losing, she wants the Florida vote to count. Obama says "no way."
Barack H. Obama pulled his name off the primary ballot in Michigan. Apparently he felt he could thumb his nose at the people of Michigan because Michigan couldn't award him delegates to the National Convention due to the punitive rule changes. Hillary Clinton remained on the ballot and won the state with 55% of the vote. For the same reasons as stated above, Hillary wants the votes to count. Obama says "no way."
The DNC disenfranchised the voters in Florida and Michigan by making really stupid rules that precluded the primary votes from counting. They are now considering a "do-over" vote paid for by the taxpayers. Wrong again, bad decision breath. You, the DNC, created the problem and now you must pay for it.
What a mess. And this is the party that wants to run America!?! No way!!!
Ohio, Texas, & Rhode Island Bomb Obama
He may have felt omnipotent, but Ohio, Texas and Rhode Island showed Barack H. Obama that he's not invincible. Is the infatuation with him waning? Can he withstand the unavoidable scrutiny?
Double digit loses in Ohio and Rhode Island took a bit of the glamour from Obama who was acting and talking as though he were the inevitable conclusion to the primary season. He may prevail when the smoke clears, but his vulnerability is now a reality.
Win? What's That?
Not knowing what winning is all about as of late, Hillary Clinton shared her views of the Iraq and Afghanistan wars in Belpre, Ohio Wednesday night 2/27/08:
"We're going to inherit so many challenges from President Bush. When you think about it, we have two wars, not one. We don't talk about Afghanistan enough. We've got two wars. We've got to end one; we've got to win the other."
Hey, Hillary. What's wrong with winning both? Maybe you're just not up to it. She's already hedging any lack of administrative success if elected president by whining about inheriting "so many challenges from President Bush." If you can't stand the heat, Hillary, get the h%ll out of the kitchen!
No Respect
According to intelligence reports, Osama bin Laden is not feeling particularly well. Concerned about his mortality, he's consulted a psychic about the date of his death.
Closing her eyes and silently reaching into the realm of the future, the psychic found the answer:
"You will die on an American holiday," she predicts.
"Which one," bin Laden nervously asked.
"It makes no difference," she replied. "Any day you die will be an American holiday."
Thank you ladies and gentlemen for your attention and have a good evening.
The bar is open.
How do you see it?
