New York: 

Guantanamo detainee and admitted "mastermind" of the 9/11/01 terrorist attacks, pardon me, "man-caused disasters" of 9/11/01,  Khalid Sheikh Mohammed will receive a makeover by mainstream media prior to his mock trial appearance.  No longer will we see this:

In order to appear "less unsavory," his new pictures will look like this:

Real Progress, D.C. Style

Homeland Security head Janet Napolitano submitted her resignation today as DHS Secretary, effective immediately, following the narrowly-averted Christmas bombing attempt.  President Obama, continuing his vacation in Hawaii, stated "You've done a heckuva job, Jannie," and immediately named her as head of the newly-created Department of Intergovernmental Medicine, or the DIM.  He clarified by saying that she will be his "go-to person" in charge of all Federal health care operations, including Medicare, Medicaid, and any future medical pogroms, that is, programs.

Question of the Day

Dear Congressman Schrader:


You, I, and 80 percent of the American voters know that the proposed "health care reform" is not in the least about what is good for America, but is entirely about what is politically expedient for President Obama.
 
Are you quite willing to sacrifice your political future for his?

A Profile of Security in America

If you were foohardy enough to believe Janet Napolitano's statement that "the system worked" to stop the would-be Christmas airliner bomber, I have sad news: she has changed her mind, and now says that  "the system failed" to apprehend and/or comprehend one Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, a probable Finnish potato farmer, unemployed  Nigerian "student" who was known to have terroristic intententions and ties, and who was even ratted out to U.S. Embassy officials by his own father!   Action taken?  A single  report filed under  "I'm too busy for this crap." 
Meanwhile, Umar hops aboard a Detroit-bound jetliner, pantslegs stuffed with powdered explosives and a detonator,  and simultaneously your Amish grandmother gets strip-searched, my legally blind 85-year-old Irish stepfather has to remove his belt, white cane and slippers for inspection, and Sister Mary-Elizabeth's habit is patted down by a TSA inspector wearing a burqa.   Another "man-caused disaster" averted, in spite of the TSA and because of a few brave passengers.


 I feel oh, so safe, knowing that Ja-No has her eagle-eye on the basket, err, the bat, umm, that, you know, round... thingy.

"Dear Congressman:"

Dear Congressman Schrader:
So, the "reform" ball is back in your court. Notwithstanding the Machiavellian deals with Senators Landrieu, Kerry, Nelson, and Dodd; ignoring the Constitution-shredding mandates, penalties, and tradeoffs, passing over the sheer Faustian intent of the bill before you now, suffice it to say that passage of this twisted parody of the legislative process will begin the death knell of many careers in Washington, D.C.

The triumphal march will become a funereal cortege; the sounding of trumpets will become the blaring of sirens; the victory lap will become a race to find shelter from the coming catabolism.

Americans have shrugged off greater chains than this; Americans have overcome fiercer enemies than this; Americans have conquered greater threats to our God-given individual freedom than this; we SHALL overcome this insidious, odious, malevolent treachery: by hook or by crook, we shall overcome.

Pray do not stand in the doorway, Sir.

Epic Fail

As we look forward to the New Year, (and the 2010 election cycle) we take a nostalgic look at the Aministration's predictions for the ACTUAL "new jobs" which the 800-plus-billion-dollar "economic stimulus" package created since its passage in January 2009, with all due thanks to Mme. Pelosevich, Commisar Reid, and Teh One for our continuing financial recovery by increasing debt load, taxes, and entitlements, and for creating NO non-governmental (i.e.-tax-supported) jobs.
