Republican Congressman Sensenbrenner Overheard Talking about Michelle Obama’s “Large Posterior”

Jim Sensenbrenner, a Republican Congressman from Wisconsin, has drawn some attention to himself after FishbowlDC reported an overheard phone conversation at Reagan International Airport.

A “Democratic operative” reportedly heard the “very loud” conversation between Sensenbrenner and someone on his staff about comments that the representative had made at a church event three weeks ago. After a woman at the event praised the first lady in conversation with him, Sensenbrenner told the staff member that he responded that Michelle Obama “lectures us on eating right while she has a large posterior herself.” Continue reading →

Kim Jong 2: Electric Boogaloo Kicks The Bucket

Kim Jong-il has died.  The 69 year-old North Korean leader died Saturday of what North Korean media said was a “great mental and physical strain” on his train during a “high intensity field inspection.”  The first part most likely points to a heart attack.  I have no idea what the second quote means.  I’m going to guess the heart attack on the train means that he died while doing the nasty.

Kim was referred to as North Korea’s “Dear Leader.”  His father, Kim il Sung, is referred to as the nation’s “Eternal President.”  He founded North Korea in 1948. Continue reading →

I’m Talking About a Revolution

Consider if you will a small country mired in conflict, with the barbarians (the International Monetary Fund) storming the gate. Tempers are high, the old guard leadership model fails, leaving its citizenry to forge for themselves buffeted by the winds of international pressures. Join us as we explore the lives of that citizenry who now find themselves living in a New World Order of their own design.

Donald Trump Decides His Comical Circus Barn Debate Shouldn’t Happen

Hair wizard, and King Midas of the GOP, Donald Trump, has decided that since no one other than, emu oil, Rick Santorum, and Yertle, the Turtle impersonator, Newt Gingrich, wanted to come and play “Embarrass All Republicans Everywhere Forever” — that you know, he should step down from moderating that thing that would have surely won Obama re-election, and probably given him the best Christmas War Holiday present of any he could imagine.

The Battle for the Soul of the GOP

From Glenn Beck, via Mediaite:

“If you have a big government progressive, or a big government progressive in Obama… ask yourself this, Tea Party: is it about Obama’s race? Because that’s what it appears to be to me. If you’re against him but you’re for this guy, it must be about race. I mean, what else is it? It’s the policies that matter.”

The GOP: Feature or Bug?

I started my career in software development. One day, shortly after I started, my team was having a meeting in which we were discussing that period’s workload. There were new items, old items, and really old items. Some of these issues had been present since the software launched years earlier, and no one could seem to crack them. The running joke was that these things had been present in the software so long, they were no longer bugs, but features, and if we removed them we would get approximately a billion support phone calls from users that had been working around it for so long they had no idea what to do once it was finally fixed. They had been a problem for so long, they had gone from being bugs, to being features. Continue reading →

Why is Santorum Still in This Race?

I simply don’t get it. He consistently gets crappy poll numbers (single digits) and is raising very little money. So little money, that Ron Paul raised about as much money in one day as he did in a whole quarter. Ron Paul. THAT’s how bad he is.

So I pondered this question: Why? The only thing I could come up with is that he is looking for some sort of endorsement deal or writing a book. I mean, what else is he going to do?

So here is the question, what product or service do you think he is particularly qualified to promote?
