UN Humor

Israeli Sense of Humour at the UN

An ingenious example of speech and politics occurred recently in the United Nations Assembly and made the world community smile.

A representative from Israel began, "Before beginning my talk, I want to tell you a story about Moses." When he struck the rock and it brought forth water, he thought, "What a good opportunity to have a bath!" He removed his clothes, put them aside on the rock and entered the water. When he got out and wanted to dress, his clothes had vanished. A Palestinian had stolen them."

The Palestinian representative jumped up furiously and shouted, "What are you talking about - The Palestinians weren't there then."

The Israeli representative then smiled and said, "And now that we have made that clear, I will begin my speech."

Normal service will be resumed tommorrow. Sorry folks for the lack of posts but have enjoyed a couple of days off. I needed the break.

MERRY XMAS from Al QAEDA

Yet another episode of what I have coined 'Self-Induced Jihad Syndrome':

Man Attempts to Set Off Explosives on Detroit-Bound Airplane

The man said he was directed by al Qaeda to explode a small device in flight, over U.S. soil. The device fizzled and popped when it went off as Northwest Airlines Flight 253, an Airbus 330 carrying 278 passengers and operated by Delta, was arriving in Detroit from Amsterdam.

Whatever you name it, "Healt Care Reform" is a nasty, smelly turd in the punchbowl.
- And this is an extremely BAD IDEA by any name: Obama Care, Pelosi Care, Cuba Care....whatever you call it, it's an extremely BAD IDEA.

There will be a price to pay. The socialists will not like the consequences. Neither will the (poor) horse they rode in on.

Their "legacy" could look very much like this...if we let it.

I do not plan to.

Two strange bedfellows have asked Attorney General Eric Holder to investigate President Obama's right-hand man, chief of staff Rahm Emanuel, for his potential role in the near collapse of mortgage giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, just as Treasury lifts the cap on their bailout money.

The real story of our time is how the United States government is being manipulated to trash our dollar at our expense. In the name of "compassion" and "hope and change", you and I are slaves.

The Thirteenth Amendment has been de facto repealed.

And you voted for it.
