NOTHING PROJECTS SUPERIORITY LIKE ATTENDENCE AT A PRICEY OBAMA FUNDRAISER

Frivolous Friday: Sagacious Advice For The Savvy Investor

SO HOARDING OBAMA MEMORABILIA WILL ALLOW ME TO RETIRE IN COMFORT?

Once more, folks. Obama is descended from slave owners, not slaves. And he is not from West Africa, the homeland of America's slaves. He is from Kenya, a country that did not participate in Western slave trade.

YO CRYBABY! HE AIN'T ONE OF YOU!

Wild Card Wednesday: Hank Williams, Jr.

A little aside. A few years back ESPN fired Rush Limbaugh for interjecting politics into football. Whether or not the press wanted Donovan McNabb to succeed is immaterial. ESPN did the right thing in firing Limbaugh. Spectator sports offer escape from the daily grind. If one compromises the element of escape, the whole product suffers mightily.

I like Hank Jr., but if he loses his ESPN gig, it is his own fault. "Keep The Change" will ring just as true regardless of his fate.

KEEP THE CHANGE

Twofer Tuesday: Douglas Den Uyl

I am ashamed to admit that I only took one philosophy class my whole life. Douglas Den Uyl taught that class. He was writing a thesis on Ayn Rand but we did not discuss her work and we only scratched the surface on capitalism.

Our Organizer-In-Chief

The crumbs lead back to the Democratic Party. http://teapartyatperrysburg.blogspot.com/2011/10/democrats-organize-for-occupy-wall.html

If this leads back to the White House, and I suspect it will, it will show our president to be more clueless than we had imagined. Once you own the factory, you do not want to throw monkey wrenches in the gears. If you are inclined to such activity, you commit your acts of destruction while on the outside looking in. Do not burn down the castle you worked so hard to win. What's the point of conquering Rome if you are just going to hand it over to the barbarians?

In times of stress we fall back on habit. The president's habit is to organize people into groups devoted to inactivity. I am not trying to be snide. This was our president's chosen career. He devoted his life to uniting non-workers of the world for purposes apparently difficult to articulate.

Yes, habits prevail. But don't you sometimes wish that someone would tap our country's exulted leader on the shoulder and remind him that "Mr. President, you are now president," and he would thereafter act a little bit presidential? We can dream, can't we?

You Might Think They Would Choose A Term Other Than 'Occupy'

A classic scene from "All In The Family." Archie is sorting the mail as his freeloading son-in-law looks on. "Resident. Resident. Resident." He then arrives at the final piece of mail. "Occupant" he announces as he hands the envelope to the meat head.

Occupants indeed.

Media Monday: How Herman Cain Got Cred

If the primaries were held tomorrow, I would probably vote for Herman Cain. Prior to this interview he was number five or six on my list. But the only way for a candidate of the people to get any traction is for him to be attacked by the news media. The more they hate a candidate, the more popular that candidate becomes. I am not the only one who shares that outlook. Cain's poll numbers have gone through the roof after this attack.

HOW DARE YOU WANDER OFF THE LEFTIST PLANTATION!!!

YES WE CAIN

Apologies

I know the format of the blog chops off the right side of embedded videos. That side of the screen is not always vital but for the last video, it certainly is. I can't reformat right now, so I will link the yoube site where you can watch the vid. It is well worth viewing.

Obama By The Numbers

a COMPARISON WITH 2006 WOULD BE MORE APT BECAUSE THAT IS WHEN THE DEMS TOOK CONTROL OF BOTH HOUSES
