Finding the Humor in Political News

Like predicting how much taxes will go up in the 58 States of Obama, finding political humor in the news is a case of when not if. You can always rely on the solons to come up with a bunch of crap for us to shovel our way out of. Might as well laugh about it because the crying is too painful right?

Artic Sea Ice Traps Climate Tour Icebreaker

global warming ship stuck in ice

Ah the delicious irony. The computers said the ice wasn’t supposed to be there. I wonder if someone on the ship suggested they leave and come back in a little while and maybe the ice will be gone. Someone else then follows up with a suggestion they covers their ears, close their eyes and chant “mamamamama I’m not listening” repeatedly.

Good thing they have a heated indoor swimming pool, exercise room, and sauna on the ship to ease their disappointment that the global warming thing isn’t working out as well as they hoped. And isn’t that boat using diesel fuel? Aww do the moonbats need a hug? On second thought never mind. I don’t want to smell like patchouli oil.

Guardian Uses Mount Rushmore for Website Ad

Come on. I know Obama is making it look like the US is about to become the world’s lapdog but this is ridiculous. The Guardian, one of Britain’s top media outlet and newspaper is just stooping too low. All four of those men on the monument inspired greatness and nation-building. All the British media did was inspire the book ‘1984‘. Maybe we should put one of those giant banners of a celebrity on Big Ben.

I think it is wrong to use a landmark as a way to advertise a brand. The people who do this want nothing more then to shamelessly promote their product or service without any thought to the ethical values we all hold dear.

Who are the Nine Percent that Approve of Congress’ Job Performance?

“There is no such thing as bad press as long as they spell your name right.”

~P.T. Barnum

Only nine percent of all Americans feel Congress is doing an excellent job. The other 91% thinks it is a hack-a-rama. But with re-election rates for members of the House and Senate running at like 96%, you have to wonder if our citizens are masochistic at worst, gluttons for punishment at best.

So who are the nine percent who think oil is evil, who think borrowing money from China to give everyone $600 is a good idea, and who think bailing out people who were credit risks to begin with are the kinds of solutions America needs?

Good thing nobody from Congress is running for President or we are so screwed.

Huge Ice Chunk Breaks Loose in Canada

There it is, the damning evidence for humans causing climate change, the smoking gun: melting ice in the summertime. But even more important is the second sentence of the story:

“Derek Mueller, a research at Trent University, was careful not to blame global warming…”

Oh no, better not let Al Gore hear you! Luckily for him, the researcher quickly remembered where his grant money was coming from with a follow-up to clarify his position:

“…but said it the event was consistent with the theory that the current Arctic climate isn’t rebuilding ice sheets.”

Meanwhile, the group of climate change moonbat tourists still waits for their ice sheet to break up.

    We’re going to be huge now that we have the Hollywood sign advertising the site. I better enable the super cache.

    Why can’t we have a vote of no confidence for our government like other countries? Europe for example.

    Well I’m off to check the air in my tires and get a tune-up.

    I can’t even believe President Obama said that. He thinks he’s invented the perpetual motion machine. Just keep the right air pressure and we’ll never need oil again. And to think, people thought his 58 states comment was a slip of the tongue. It’s pretty obvious he’s just a very stupid man.

    We’re screwed for the next 8-10 years.

    That global warming tour story is awesome. Too bad it didn’t end with them clinging for life on a floating door, diCaprio-style.

    You don’t need facts anymore, just beliefs. If Obama tells people he believes proper tire inflation will make up for the hundreds of billions of barrels of oil we won’t drill then you can’t argue it.

    The liberals finally figured out the name of the game: get everyone to belief in things even if they are not true. We are now legislating fairy tales. Easter Bunny is real but don’t worry he’s got a low carbon pawprint.

    The only problem is there is no older kid blowing the whole thing up by telling them there is no Santa Claus. Everyone is buying into the fairy tales.

    Yeah Chris, I have to give it to you on this one. The liberals have been way to slow to learn the whole “believe it and it will be true” plan. Dubya and his architect capitalized on that long ago and the red state bubba’s “believed” they could have a beer with Dubya and that he did really know how to find WMD’s and could figure out which parts of the axis of evil really were dangerous.

    But better late than never – the liberals have finally arrived at the Believers party.
