Disturbing

hate

A reminder that you don’t have to leave the country to find deranged and dangerous individuals.

The Warren Pennsylvania Times-Observer (www.timesobserver.com) published an ad today calling for the assassination of President Barack Obama.

The text of the small classified ad reads, “May Obama follow in the footsteps of Lincoln, Garfield, McKinley and Kennedy!” There is no other text and it has no attribution.

You can view the ad here.

Quote of the Day

quoteoftheday-idiot

“The country is failing because President Obama is succeeding.” -Rush Limbaugh

You have to figure that every time this buffoon opens his mouth, another 3.2 independents move to the left.  I read a comment where the point was made how the Republican timeline skips from 2000 to 2009.  How true.  For righties, those years in between have become irrelevant to the situation the country finds itself in.  Very convenient.

There’s still a long way to go in turning the economy around but a panel of 45 economists are calling for the recession to be over by year’s end.  Let’s not tell Rush.

Here are the words of The One And Only True Conservative in all its splendor.

The Barry Years…The Missing Years

obama-  jackson 6 - http://mariopiperni.com/

It can now be told.

The two years Barry Obama spent at Occidental College in LA have been shrouded in mystery…until now. Thanks to a former classmate who held on to photographs taken at the time, the truth can now be told. Aside from the photo above, there are 35 others which had been locked away in a safety deposit box for these many months and years.

There had long been rumors of a sixth Jackson – a Jackson who could not sing and could not dance. Try as they did to keep the shame of ‘Barry J’ hidden away, his rise to the presidency has blown the cover-up.  A spokesman for the Jackson family would only say that Michael and his brothers will deal with their disgrace as best they could.

It is unknown at this time how this new found info will affect Obama’s role as President but the RNC’s hip chairman, Michael Steele, did put out an immediate press release:

Yo once again it’s the Big Steele, that kid who got much prop
from tearin’ down corrupt Dems, with my words and sly drop
So don’t step to this, cause I got a live crew
Barry might be kinda big but this is all new
This ain’t Cali, it’s DC nigga
No one can match me, tax me or wax me

Yes, Steele’s got issues.
