... and that would be because I have a very short attention span this morning and very well may have been overserved last night.

A few thousand people are receiving stimulus checks from the government this week.  They won't be able to cash them.  That would be because they are dead.  The looters are taking your money, and borrowing money from your grandchildren, and sending that money to dead people.  Isn't it going to be just so much fun when these people are controlling your health care?  "No, you can't have that knee replacement.  You're dead."

PrezBO says that the current rate of deficit spending by the federal government is "unsustainable."  He says interest rates are going to go up for US consumers.  Why?  Because the government is competing with the consumers to borrow money.  High demand, lower supply = higher cost.  For those of you educated in government schools, this means higher interest rates.  Obama's projected deficit for this year alone is over $1.8 trillion dollars.  

Carrie Prejean, that Miss California and Miss USA runner-up with the aftermarket fun bags, is going to guest host on Fox 'n Friends.  Why?  Because she's an accomplished journalist?  Nope.  'Cause she's blonde and beautiful.  The date will be May 27th.  Set your TIVO.

Democrats have a real problem with Gitmo.  Now they're suddenly realizing the value of Gitmo as a place to park terrorists.  Their reckless campaign promises to close Gitmo down are coming back to haunt them.  They know that closing Gitmo is not good for the country .. but its party before country for Democrats.  Republicans too, for that matter.  

Not picking on Belinda .. but her youngest boy brought home a piece of paper from school.  At the top was written "Andrew's Happy Book."  There were pictures of things that make Andrew happy pasted on the paper.  Two of the pictures were dogs.  Belinda won't let her kids have a dog.  We're working on her.  

Is there anyone left out there who does not believe that Nancy Pelosi is lying about her CIA briefings on waterboarding?  If so, I have $36 million dollars from a dead Nigerian oil minister I want to transfer into your bank account.  Send me your account number and password and I'll get 'er done.

Obama is worried about what credit card companies do to consumers.  He has nothing to say about consumers ripping off credit card companies.  Pay  your bill on time and you won't have to pay either any penalties or interest.  Simple as that.  

I really need to do a better job of warning people about Obama and the looter's plans for a "Cap and Trade" law.  I'll work on that next week.  Bottom line .. .just another tax on consumers.  

The only people who really think that Obama's grandiose plans for health care "reform,"  (government control) will actually work live in Washington DC.  

The Postal Service has raised the price of their product because fewer people are using it.  Only in the wonderful world of government would this type of reasoning prevail.

For no particular reason, here are hot girls noodling!


The Reason Foundation is a Libertarian think tank.  This bit from Jon Basil Utley.  Don't read it if you still think Obama hung the moon:

It's only a matter of time before President Barack Obama's vast popularity runs aground on his energy policies. In the name of saving the planet from global warming, he has delayed new oil drilling, an action that will have major political repercussions once the world economy recovers. Instead of using some [of] the stimulus billions to produce more gas and oil, Obama's wild-eyed supporters dream of "renewable" energy derived from corn, wind, sunshine, and even grass.

With the appointment of extremists like climate czar Carol Browner and science adviser John Holdren, Obama has placed his administration's environmental policy in the hands of radicals. Interior Secretary Ken Salazar proposes replacing oil and coal with windmills. Yet Barron's recently reported that America would need to build 500,000 giant offshore windmills and transmission lines to produce Salazar's specified 1,900 gigawatts of electricity. In contrast, oil and gas drilling could provide hundreds of thousands of solid, well-paying blue-collar jobs. . . .

All of these things are happening at a time when natural gas is abundant and cheap. The new technology of horizontal fraccing has made it economically feasible to drill into vast shale deposits in many states, even famously difficult ones like Michigan and New York. Many cars could run on natural gas, much like many buses do already. On a recent trip to Peru, I learned that most taxicabs have been converted to natural gas for a cost of about $1,000 each. New technologies continually revive old oil and gas fields and make new ones economically viable. So it's little more than socialist Malthusianism to argue that the world is running out of cheap energy. Science will always find and harness new sources.

If you missed this column from George Will, read it ...  "Tincture of Lawlessness: Obama's Overreaching Economic Policies."

Have you been following this little brouhaha  between Nancy Pelosi and the CIA?

I've been saying this for years, but maybe this time it will get through to you ...  People lose jobs when the government decides to hike the federal minimum wage.

The Obama administration is now considering plans to detain some terror suspects on U.S. soil  indefinitely and without trial.

Here's a real shocker ... Arlen Specter says that he is  willing to compromise on the card check bill.  It's all about staying in power, folks.

Obama says that our  current deficit spending "unsustainable."  Gee, ya think?  So what is he doing about ... spending more taxpayer money.

Two Congressmen have proposed a bill to  punish satellite companies that carry channels that are mouthpieces for known terrorist groups like Hezbollah and Hamas.

According to this column in the Wall Street Journal, Organized labor has become by far the most powerful political force in government.

The infamous DHS report about right-wing extremists has been withdrawn and is being rewritten.

The House has approved legislation to spend $6.4 billion to make our government schools more "green."

Republican Congresswoman Michelle Bachmann is asking Congress to block ACORN's access to federal housing funds.

Obama is expanding his mortgage aid program to help homeowners avoid a foreclosure if they don't qualify for other assistance.

If the Antarctic ice were to melt, the amount the sea would rise  has been grossly over-estimated.

Arnold Schwarzenegger has decided that he wants to generate more revenue for his state by selling off state-owned properties.

Miss California is going to be a FOX News babe.  She definitely fits the bill.
