Slow-motion death march.........from Rico.
I doubt very much if that 'relic' of reality from days past (the Laffer Curve) means very much to the current Team Obama, so let me translate it for them:
The CBO (Congressional Budget Office) says Obama's 'exploding' debt may hit 100% of America's GDP [read: ability to service debt] in 5 years.
- Translation=we ARE running out of money! This is the first factual thing Obama has said in public.
- Obama and Congress have a 'solution' however...it's called raise taxes! (never mind that raising taxes decreases tax revenue....that's so reality-focused; Look! There's a unicorn!....was that Bawney Fwank or Harry Pelosi's voice?).
For the rest of us:
- When government needs 100% of OUR income to sustain itself, the incentive to work is destroyed and one of two things happens: (1) National Collapse , or (2) Government Seizure of "We the people" at gun point. I think either result is desired and intentional on Team Obama's part....and, they consider this a win-win proposition for them. Call it a slow-motion national death march.
News.....
D-Day - and the Allies are at war. Like squabbling children.
BBC offers £30,000 and an apology for Question Time 'slur' on Islamic leaders over anti-war protest. Pathetic.
Guilty: The gang that doused teenager with petrol and burned him alive because he fell in love with wrong girl. Hang them.
Extremists behind anti-war protest driven off the streets by moderate Muslims. There is no place for islamo-nazis in Britain.
MPs' expenses: Phantom mortgage MPs must face fraud charges, says David Cameron. And jail.
N Korea prepares site for launch of ballistic missile. If we do nothing every other tinpot dictatorship will know that they can do anything they like.
Armed Forces recruitment highest since Iraq invasion due to recession. We need all the troops we can get. All we need now is to increase the defence budget.
Barack Obama's great uncle criticises him over Buchenwald visit. It's a photo-op and nothing more.
Gunmen attack Iran president's campaign offices. Trouble brewing in Iran.
Iran executes trio for mosque bombing. And blames the US.
Venezuela's President Hugo Chavez plans marathon TV talk show. Someone should jam the signal.
Poll reveals Labour heading for election humiliation. Assuming anyone bothers to vote.
SAS take on Taleban in Afghanistan after defeating al-Qaeda in Iraq. The Taleban are in for a good kicking.

My Week Kim Jong Il*. Funny.
U.S. embassy to hold first-ever gay pride party tonight -- in Iraq. WTF!!!!
American capitalism gone with a whimper. A MUST READ. H/T Jeff H

Oh dear.....
'The computer's swallowed Grandpa!
Yes, honestly, it's true
He pressed 'Control' and 'Enter'
And disappeared from view.
It devoured him completely
The thought just makes me squirm
He must have caught a virus
Or been eaten by a worm
I've searched through the Recycle Bin
And files of every kind
I've even used the Internet
But nothing did I find
I tried Asking Jeeves
My searches to refine
The reply from him was negative
Not a thing was found 'on line'
So if inside your Inbox
My Grandpa you should see
Please 'Copy', 'Scan' and 'Paste' him
And send him back to me'

Eleventh Wedding.....
A young man married a beautiful woman who had previously divorced 10 husbands. On their wedding night, she told her new husband to Please be gentle; I'm still a virgin.
What? said the puzzled groom.
How can that be possible if you’ve been married ten times.?
Well, husband#1 was a Sales Representative; he just kept telling me how great it was going to be.
Husband #2 was in Software Services; he was never really sure how it was supposed to function; but he said he would look into it and get back with me.
Husband #3 was from Field Services; he said that everything checked out diagnostically but he just couldn’t get the system up.
Husband #4 was in Telemarketing; even though he knew he had the order, he didn't know when he would be able to deliver.
Husband #5 was an Engineer, he understood the basic process but he wanted three years to research, implement, and design a new state of the-art method.
Husband #6 was from Administration; he thought he knew how but he wasn’t sure whether it was his job or not.
Husband #7 was in Marketing; although he had a product, he was never sure how to position it.
Husband #8 was a Psychiatrist; all he did was talk about it.
Husband # 9 was a Gynaecologist; all he did was look at it.
Husband #10 was a Stamp Collector; all he ever did was … God I miss him.
But now that I’ve married you, I’m so excited.
Wonderful, said the husband, but why?
To which she replied,Your with the GOVERNMENT . ..This time I KNOW IM gonna get SCREWED.

Blonde Joke....
Two blonde girls were working for the city public works department. One would dig a hole and the other would follow behind her and fill the hole in. They worked up one side of the street, then down the other, then moved on to the next street, working furiously all day without rest, one girl digging a hole, the other girl filling it in again.
An onlooker was amazed at their hard work, but couldn't understand what they were doing. So he asked the hole digger, 'I'm impressed by the effort you two are putting in to your work, but I don't get it -- why do you dig a hole, only to have your partner follow behind
and fill it up again?'
The hole digger wiped her brow and sighed, 'Well, I suppose it probably looks odd because we're normally a three-person team. But today the girl who plants the tree called in sick.'

Frog Leap Test--Can it be done?
Here is a little 'test' that is (supposedly) part of a second grade Computer class in China . Some figure it out right away.
Others report having to work on it for a week (or more) to solve it.

Thought for the Day.....
Over five thousand years ago, Moses said to the children of Israel” pick up your shovel , mount your asses and camels,and I will lead you to the promised land”.
Nearly 75 years ago , Roosevelt said, ” Lay down your shovels, sit on your asses , and light up a Camel , this is the promised land.”
Now Obama is going to steal your shovel , kick your asses, raise the price of camels , and mortgage the promised land.
