More thoughts on Obama’s popularity.  Damn the torpedoes, full-speed ahead on the domestic agenda regardless of ability to pay or cost.  Why doesn’t the President embrace “moderate” Democrats?  Isn’t he bi-partisan?  Paul Krugman on heath reform and his general worthlessness.  The truth about the uninsured in the US.  What are the liberals really trying to accomplish on health care “reform” and what it will mean to you.

President Obama’s message on health care
Touch Me, I’m Sick – Mudhoney

Podcast Theme
Fearless – The Bravery

Welcomes, hellos, intros, recap of First Friday last week with Ed Meese, plus the conveying of a complaint about not tipping and yelling at bartenders – a sure way to get spit in your drink.

A valuable lesson for those looking to fix their own electronic devices – open hand smacks work better than punches.

The President wants you to sacrifice…seemingly so he can live like a king.  Date night as President – a six figure affair.

Economic numbers vs. rhetoric.  Unemployment numbers and the media, nowhere near reality.   Where are the stories about the homeless and those one paycheck away from disaster we’re used to when a Republican is President?  The 600,000 “created or saved” jobs myth.  What happened to the 3-4 million jobs that $787 billion “stimulus” bill was supposed to create?  The $2 trillion deficit before health care.  Ford vs. GM – How can Ford compete with a company owned by the entity that makes the rules?  Obama is willing to keep his word to his wife about Broadway, but has pretty much exposed everything he said during the campaign as a lie.

A little talk about Bon Jovi for no real reason.

The best Burger King EVER!!!  Signs put up my owner say “Global Warming is Baloney” and he, therefore, becomes our hero.  Global warming causes record cold and snow fall in June.  A little bit of information on what the actual scientific data says and how lazy the media is on the subject.  Aren’t we past the “point of no return” these enviro-Nazis set about cutting CO2?  If it’s too late, let’s party!

A discussion on the true number of uninsured in the country and how you’re being lied to about it by a lazy and complicit media.

News of the Weird, News of the World, News of…Whatever!

Ohio school invited to graduation tells students they must leave the state immediately after graduation.  If there’s one thing Ohio seemingly doesn’t need is educated people, and the unemployment numbers reflect the success of that program.

Colorado couple want to be able to garden in their front yard naked.  We they not in their 50s no one would complain.

Girl in England placed under curfew for 2 months, except on Saturdays because judge doesn’t want to ruin her summer.  That’s the kind of punishment we wish we’d gotten as kids.

Church to give away guns – will they then pass the ammunition?

Man sues mother because he cut his finger off in a saw when she tapped him on the shoulder, wins more than $100k.  Promptly cut out of the will.

Woman steals child’s ice cream money, turned in by husband.  No ambiguity when someone refers to the “better half” in that relationship.

High school student gives report on marijuana, then lights joint in class.  He promptly swallowed it, was shockingly suspended.

Man escapes from police pursuit on horse and buggy.  Why aren’t these horses on the racing circuit?

Pictures from the June First Friday with special guest Ed Meese.

Thanks to everyone who came out the this past week’s First Friday, and a special thanks to Mr. Meese for coming to hang out with us, sign autographs, answer questions and take pictures.  What an all-around nice guy.

Here is a sampling of the pictures from First Friday. You can see a larger version of each of these by clicking on them and can see all the pics from Friday by going to our Flickr page here.

Also, we do have a Facebook group but there are only a few members because we don’t do much with it, frankly. But we do post some pictures from First Friday there a few days before we post all of them, and you can tag people, so there is a small benefit to joining. If you are so inclined you can join the group here. Considering some of the odd groups on Facebook people join, joining our group isn’t all that strange.

Fearless – The Bravery

Welcome, intros and announcement that Ed Meese is the special guest this month at First Friday.

A plug for Pork Barrel BBQ since Heath owns the company and it’s damn tasty.  The interview that was and the technical difficulties that made it not with Mitt Romney.

Sonya Sotomeyer, Barack Obama, race and politics.  Biography as qualification – the difference between Sotomeyer and Clarence Thomas.  The Constitution was not written to give you rights, it was written to limit government – and that has seemingly been lost.   Judges making policy.  The crumbling of the Republicans in the face of a fight – why they lose.  Sotomeyer’s bigoted statement was written down in a speech, edited and delivered, not off the cuff.  Julianne Malveaux wish Clarence Thomas dead on TV and is still a pundit the liberal media goes to.  Remember that when Republicans are accused of all sorts of things.

A tangent on Garth Brooks and the best selling musicians of all time.

General Motors becomes Government Motors, will they produce the next Yugo? How can the President violate bankruptcy laws at will?  Will Ford  be able to compete with 2 government run auto companies?  Who really killed the auto industry?  Michael Moore has a plan for you – you don’t get to own a car and have to take trains, government run and controlled trains.  You will never see his fat ass in a small car or on a train, however.  Liberal hypocrisy over pretty much everything, do as I say, not as I do.

The let them eat cake class.  The Obama date night to NYC – how much did it cost taxpayers for the President to get lucky and keep a promise to his wife?  And why can’t he keep his campaign promises if he’s so willing to piss away our money on one to his wife?

News of the Weird, News of the World, News of…Whatever!

Colorado high school has to reprint diplomas because they misspelled the name of the town on it.  Public education at its best!

Hearst driver stops for beer on the way to deliver the body to the cemetery.  Depression can drive a person to drink, but a drunk driver should no drive a body to depressed people.

Man given lighter sentence after attacking his girlfriend with a knife because her dog bit his balls.  Too bad the dog didn’t bite them off.

Man in Egypt cuts off his own penis to protest his family’s refusal to allow him to marry someone from a lower class.  How does running away not occur to him?

Intros, welcome, random insults and a recap of Heath’s Memorial Day BBQ.  Night at the Museum recap and mini-review.

Colin Powell and Rush Limbaugh, what constitutes a Republican?  How can a self-proclaimed Republican support Obama?  What exactly does Obama support that McCain didn’t that Powell disagrees with?  Shouldn’t Powell have an issue with defense cuts Obama wants to implement?  Why the media gives so much ink and air time to a Republican that criticizes Republicans and none to Democrats that criticize Democrats.  Bias anyone?

Speaker Pelosi in China.  She refuses to address her charge that the CIA lied to Congress.  Leon Panetta defends the CIA.  What the Dems are doing is impacting morale.  Other Speakers have resigned for much less, yet Pelosi stays and is defended by Democrats, which hurts the nation.  Pelosi ignores human rights abuses by China to focus on “climate change” to give the government more power.  A quick debunking of the global warming myth.  How Al Gore can save the planet – hold global warming protests since it always snows when he does.

Fat prisoner sues country because they can’t dress him.  Just give him a tarp.

Welcome, hellos and a recap of the weekend. Softball injuries and random insults. Sometimes co-host Brian Darling is now married and we congratulate him.

Jeneane Garafolo and Keith Uberdouche, er, Olbermann, accuse anyone who participated in the Tea Parties on tax day of being racist rednecks who suffer from brain imbalances. No riots or masks at the tea parties. No rent-a-goon mobs like those at leftie rallies. Obama’s puppeteer David Axelrod says tea parties are “unhealthy.” Protesting and “speaking truth to power” is only patriotic when it’s against Republicans. What liberals don’t understand about freedom loving individuals – they don’t want other people’s stuff, they just want to be left alone. Econ 101 – take more money from business, businesses can only either pass on increased costs to you or let people go. Garafolo, Ph.D., on her extensive research into hate and Olbermann, a worthless bag of human flesh, just grunts. The joyless Left. Tom Brokaw would be rolling over in his grave, were he in a grave.

Because it’s worth revisiting – The Mortgage Crisis timeline

Thanks to reader Kurt…

No wonder Barney Frank wouldn’t answer the question that kid at Harvard asked him about what responsibility, if any, was his.  He kept referring to when he became Chairman and forgot about when he was Ranking Member and blocked anything from getting done.

What you should have done all along is NOT be a corrupt douchebag, Congressman Frank.  But that’s too much to ask for from you, especially when you’re raking in money from them.

It does seem odd that liberals, who love regulating damn near everything, somehow thought there were enough regulations on Fannie and Freddie.  There’s a connection – those industries that pay, get to play. Those that don’t, get regulated.  We’re still waiting for the Special Comment from the “special” Keith Uberdouche on this issue.

Former comedian Janeane Garofalo and former sports comedienne Keith Uberdouche, er, Olbermann, had a conversation last week that exposed the world to the fact that not only are they raging hypocrites, but they’ve clearly suffered closed head injuries in the past few years.  Well, now we have a window of time.  Seems they forgot all about the older conversation in this exchange, so that would put the accident (which we assume both are) sometime between then and now. 

Note the use of Nazi type propaganda.  If you don’t get that reference, go look up some history.

Obama meets Chavez – Birds of a feather…

Liberals and taxes – it’s their money, they are just allowing you to keep some of it…for now.

This is how scummy these rich liberals are.  They live like kings, shelter their money in trust funds while creating a permanent dependent class of Americans who will never live the American Dream they have for no other reason than they’ve been told they can’t succeed, that the deck is stacked against them, that they NEED government, and they bought it.  Those that don’t buy it succeed.  There’s enough guilt to go around to both liberals and those that quit, but the blame is all on the empty heads of liberals.

Hellos, Easter recap, random insults, etc.

Sometimes co-host Brian Darling gets married, we make fun of him and wish him well. Pirates, pirates and more pirates. Our take on the Somali Pirate drama, including our connection to Captain Phillips. The Daily Kos calls Captain Phillips reckless, says he should have given up the whole ship, not a hero. Seems being held at constant gun point is cool with the Left, so we’ve found a replacement for waterboarding.

Mother convicted of stalking her own son, called 49 times a day. Family reunion cancelled.

Congo to make politicians pay their taxes. Are they going to become Obama Cabinet officials?

Woman gets in 3 car accidents in an hour, including driving into a house. The house ran out in front of her.

Alleged suicide victim found 29 years later, after he tied himself to the top of a tree, then shot himself. Where was Phil Spector?

The Obamas get their dog. What the hell is a Portuguese Water Dog? Does Kennedy like them because they swim out of cars when he drives into the water?

Polish politician angry that the zoo has a “gay” elephant. Gay bashing knows no species!

Man divorces wife via text message. Did he bother to spell out the words?

Polish man faces 10 years in jail for stealing toilet paper. Really crappy.

Camille Paglia dares to speak the truth about liberals.

Kudos to Camille Paglia, the often right and always entertaining professor with we regularly disagree but never find disagreeable, for having the courage to call American liberals out for what they really are.

Yes, something very ugly has surfaced in contemporary American liberalism, as evidenced by the irrational and sometimes infantile abuse directed toward anyone who strays from a strict party line. Liberalism, like second-wave feminism, seems to have become a new religion for those who profess contempt for religion. It has been reduced to an elitist set of rhetorical formulas, which posit the working class as passive, mindless victims in desperate need of salvation by the state. Individual rights and free expression, which used to be liberal values, are being gradually subsumed to worship of government power.

We know and have known many people like this, with whom a rational conversation is impossible, people who run out of things to say once they’ve used up all the “facts” they read in the latest issue of The Nation, Mother Jones or Newsweek.  The inability of these people to thing beyond what they’re fed, to extrapolate beyond talking points they’re read or to have a coversation that doesn’t end in anger and name-calling on their part is why we don’t miss the ones we knew and won’t the ones we know, should it come to that.  Paglia, on the other hand, is welcome to join us for a beer any time.

Fearless – The Bravery

Welcomes, recap of First Friday, summary of Derek’s trip to San Diego.

The huge partisan divide in America over President Obama. Obama’s two day delay on AIG yet Bush caught hell for waiting 7 minutes on 9/11. Obama apologizes for everything in Europe. Does France really deserve an apology? Is this the speech a President should give? Michael Moore loves the move to fire GM’s CEO, so everyone should be weary. The union vote vs. union money in politics. Obama refuses repayment of TARP funds to maintain control over some banks. The government controlling the economy by controlling the money flow.

North Korea tests a missile, the administration doesn’t do much about it. This is what passes for leadership. The “tie” in the NY-20 special election. What does it mean, if anything, about Obama’s popularity? NY Governor Patterson is so unpopular that the NY Dem party tells him he can forget about running unless he gets more popular soon.

News of the Weird, News of the World, News of…Whatever!

Police in Detroit break up giant pillow fight. There is nothing else happening in Detroit for the police to deal with, crime is history.

Man gets DUI for driving custom made barstool home and crashing in front of his house. How lazy do you can to be?

Man attempts to rob a store twice in one night. How drunk do you have to be to forget you’d already robbed a store that day?

Grandma drives 103 MPH to show her grandson what not to do. Next week she’s going to teach him not to shoot people…

Obama give the Queen an iPod. Was the store out of vibrators?

Woman rescued from run-a-way scooter.

German man attempts to steal 68 tubes of toothpaste. If you’re going to steal…really?

Obama to the rescue of, well, everything.

debt-star-obama

Feeling sad about the economy?  Worried about your financial situation?  Forget the fact that people have been through much worse, even this country has been through much worse (we survived the Depression and Jimmy Carter’s Presidency), Barack Obama is going to save you.  Or at least offer pseudo-help.

The White House has come out with warning signs for depression over the economy, they can be found here.

Oddly enough, there is nothing on the site for people who are depressed that the President is ruining the country, making a natural correction of the economy much, much worse, spending the country into insurmountable debt, attempting to ruin health care, nationalizing industry and banks, all the while laughing and and having Wednesday night parties to maintain a sense of “normalcy.”  (What normal person has mid-week set for party time every week?)

Maybe the President will assign everyone their own personal Reggie Love, the guy that dials Obama Blackberry, because you can’t take a second to dial your phone or supply your own snacks when you’re THE ONE!

This is real.  You can read the whole story here.

At the same time, Obama will be constantly minded by his personal aide Reggie Love, who dials his BlackBerry, fetches his jacket and tie and supplies him with snacks.

Bet none of those greedy, evil CEOs on Wall Street had a dude to “fetch” their jackets.

Welcome, blowing up Heath’s eardrums, reminder that this Friday is First Friday. Recap of the weekend, which involves mechanical bull riding (for reasons unknown) and random insults.

Government Motors, the firing of the GM CEO Wagoner on orders of the President. What this means and why it’s worrisome. What would a government warrantee look like? Replacing one failed leader with another. Will the government step in and honor other failed company’s warrantees?

Obama’s entourage and Reggie Love – the President’s phone dialer and tie fetcher. How many people does it take to attend a G20 summit? Turns out the answer is 500.

Joe Biden’s attractive 27 year old daughter gets treated with kid gloves while Republican’s kids get treated like adults. Media bias anyone? Or just some Biden booger sugar?

Get married and buried in the same place, at the same time. Wedding chapel/crematorium.

Moron in Michigan gets his finger stuck in SUV gas tank for 4 hours. Or at least he “said” it was his finger…

Idiot tries to rob a cop at a convention for narcotics officers. It didn’t work out really well for him, if you can believe that.

Naked man tries to buy beer, gets arrested. Only speculation at this point as to where he kept his wallet.

Dead child’s parents get letter of complaint from school about truancy. Really needs no comment.

Obama’s God Complex…in pictures.

Maybe he does think he’s The One, maybe it’s just the people around him, but whatever the case, someone is believing this stuff hard-core in the White House.

Sadly, while he walks on water, we all drown in his debt.

Kill your family to save the planet – the global warming nuts reach a new low.

He's just crazy enough to do it!

He's just crazy enough to do it!

There are stories that you simply can’t make up because no one would believe you. They also require little comment. This reporter wonders if taking out his whole family might be the best way to deal with a potential water shortage…

Depressed? Well, it’s a sign of the grim times for our planet when pre-schoolers are worrying about something as basic as water, a commodity which my generation never even thought about at his age.

When I look at my kids like my son and wonder what kind of place the world will be when they are my age – about 2050 – I find myself wondering if me and my family shouldn’t just open the balcony doors of my 16th floor apartment and do the planet a favour by jumping out.

Arlen Specter to oppose Card Check

They're smiling because he usually votes like they do.

They're smiling because he usually votes like they do.

It looks like Arlen Specter’s apology tour to conservatives to make up for his selling out on the “stimulus” bill continues…

It has been announced today that the will oppose cloture on the Employee Free Choice act, commonly referred to as Card Check.

Thanks for agreeing to do the right thing, Senator Specter, but this in on way makes up for your selling out to the tune of a trillion dollars.  We appreciate this, but will never forget that.
