The Idiossey

January 22nd, 2009 · 1 Comment

Iowahawk is a national treasure. This spoof of The Odyssey is an instant classic.
Speak to me, O Muse, of this resourceful man
who strides so boldly upon the golden shrine of Potomac,
Between Ionic plywood columns, to the kleig light altar.
Fair Obamacles, favored of the gods, ascends to Olympus
Amidst lusty tributes and the strumming lyres of […]

Change, Indeed: Internet Speech Regulation Edition

November 21st, 2008 · No Comments

Obama Attorney General choice Eric Holder calls for “reasonable regulations on how people interact on the internet”.

I’d wouldn’t define “reasonable” as anything more than “none” in that context, but I have the feeling that he feels differently.

Chris Matthews Revealed

November 7th, 2008 · No Comments

Is it a journalist’s job to make a given Presidency work? Is it a journalist’s job to “help the country”? I had thought the job was to relate the facts and inform people so they can make up their own minds, but apparently Chris Matthews disagrees.

Obama!

November 5th, 2008 · No Comments

It’s over, and Barack Obama will be the next President of the United States of America.
I congratulate him and his supporters, and I’m glad we have elected the first black President, even if I think he’s a socialist.
He’s OUR President. Not just you who voted for him and support him, but […]

- Idiot white guy ruins everything….
- Idiot black guy is hired to fix things - promising change…
- Idiot black guy makes change after change after change….
- Idiot black guy makes things worse…
- 4 years later […]

Strangest Election In History

October 30th, 2008 · No Comments

Esquire has a feature up where they interview several white-supremacists (and one black-supremacist) and ask them their views on the election. You’d think their answers would be obvious, but you’d be wrong :
In an informal Esquire survey, three out of four white supremacists prefer Obama, while McCain is the clear favorite among black nationalists. […]

The LA Times has admitted in its pages possessing a video from a 2003 dinner in the honor of Rashid Khalidi in which Obama gave a “special tribute”.
From the LA Times article:
It was a celebration of Palestinian culture — a night of music, dancing and a dash of politics. Local Arab Americans were bidding farewell […]

So does anyone still maintain he is not a socialist after listening to that?
Here’s a transcript of the money quote (emphasis mine):
If you look at the victories and failures of the civil rights movement and its litigation strategy in the court. I think where it succeeded was to invest formal rights in previously dispossessed people, […]

The New York Times Revealed

October 25th, 2008 · No Comments

The New York Times revealed something interesting about their editorial borad’s thought processes in their long expected Obama endorsement.
Mr. Obama is clear that the nation’s tax structure must be changed to make it fairer. That means the well-off Americans who have benefited disproportionately from Mr. Bush’s tax cuts will have to pay some more. Working […]

The Øbama Reader

October 21st, 2008 · 2 Comments

For a certain unnamed Øbama fan who doesn’t think he’s a socialist and doesn’t understand why I think he’s a socialist.

It’s Getting Nasty

September 10th, 2008 · 2 Comments

Øbama in Virginia:
Øbama poked fun of McCain and Palin’s new “change” mantra.
“You can put lipstick on a pig,” he said as the crowd cheered. “It’s still a pig.”
“You can wrap an old fish in a piece of paper called change. It’s still gonna stink.”
“We’ve had enough of the same old thing.”
So is John McCain the […]
