Pelosi Doubles Down on Stupid
Pelosi: Today We Pray To St. Joseph The Worker For This “Life-Affirming Legislation”
Here’s the thing: MaDamn Pelosi 1) is praying to a saint, which I find rich in irony in and of itself, and 2) she is praying to the wrong saint. Today is the Feast of St. Joseph, the husband of Mary, who begat the Son of God, Jesus. Pelosi is praying to St. Joseph the Worker, whose feast day is May 1st. WTF kind of Catholic is this dumbass??
And it is patently obvious that MaDamn Pelosi doesn’t recall that no saints in our denomination support any form of abortion. Gawd, she gives humans a bad name.
Aggie Translates the News
Trolling around the interwebtubethingy this morning, I found several stories that would benefit from the Aggie Translation Service. First up we had Prez Obama on a so-called diplomatic mission:
Obama to Meet With Netanyahu Next Week Amid Tension Over Settlements
Aggie Translation:
Obama: You gotta stop this, dude.
Netenyahu: Fuck off, weenie.
Next up, we have demigod Joe Arpaio conducting an immigration sweep:
The Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office in Arizona has launched a two-day, countywide crime and immigration sweep that authorities say will focus on drop houses, drug violators and human smuggling vehicles.Four hundred deputies and volunteer posse members are taking part in the patrols. The sweep, which began Thursday, is Sheriff Joe Arpaio’s 14th since early 2008.
Aggie Translation:
Sec. Napolitano: You gotta stop this, dude, right now!!
Sheriff Joe: Fuck off, weenie. I’m a demigod.
Then we have Putin spitting on our esteemed Secretary of State:
Vladimir Putin, Russia’s prime minister, promised on Thursday that Moscow would help Iran complete a civil nuclear power station by this summer, drawing criticism from Hillary Clinton, US secretary of state.
His remarks highlighted the continuing differences between the two powers over how to contain Iran’s nuclear ambitions. Mrs Clinton was visiting Moscow on a trip partly designed to increase the pressure on Tehran by showing America’s unity with Russia.
Aggie Translation:
Sec. Clinton: You gotta stop this, dude! We are supposed to be comrades.
Putin: Fuck off, weenie. I have a chance to make my country the only superpower on this rock, and I’m taking it.
Lastly, we have Vice Prez Biden inserting a shoe store in his maw:
“I’m telling you, you know, pre-existing [conditions], they’re going to be covered. You know we’re going to control the insurance companies,” the vice president said. “You know people aren’t going to lose their health care with their employer like is being advertised.”
Biden said once these provisions take effect and the American people feel the impact, lawmakers who vote “yes” will reap the benefits.
Aggie Translation:
Prez Obama: Biden, will you just STFU??
VP Biden: Fuck off, weenie. I have one lousy job in this administration. It’s stupid, but I’m going to do it!*
I hope that my translation services were adequate. Sometimes it’s hard to decipher what the newsmakers put out.

AoSHQ is all over Obamacare
Ace and his cohorts are all over Obamacare this week. If you aren’t over there every day, you really should be.
Links:
CBO Health Care Numbers Are In And Democrats Are Pleased
Bumped and Updated
“The Congressional Budget Office has confirmed that there is currently no official cost estimate. Yet House Democrats are touting to the press – and spinning for partisan gain – numbers that have not been released and are impossible to confirm.
Nomentum: Michael Arcuri (D-NY) Flips from Yes to No
Fox Poll: Opposition to ObamaCare Hits 55%; Sixty Five Percent Say “Do Nothing” or “Start Over”
Senator Coburn: I’ve Got News For You: If You Sell Your Vote for Earmarks or a Federal Posting, I’m Going to Block It in the Senate As Bribery
Democrats Band Together To Approve of Slaughter House Rule, 222-203
Rumors: Two House Democrats Already Promised Administration Positions?
Maybe Tom “Don’t Screw With This” Coburn had some specific folks in mind when he said House Democrats who walk the plank for ObamaCare shouldn’t expect cushy landings in the Executive Branch.
Also, keep and eye on Gabriel Malor’s posts over there, he’s their resident legal geek and has really been on top of the count of who’s voting how.
Doomed to Repeat It
Check out this cartoon, and pay close attention to the “plan” detailed on the left lower corner:
This is a cartoon first published in 1934 in the Chicago Tribune. For some reason, the term “prophecy” popped into my head.
What the fuck ?
From the Speaker’s own website:
Speaker Nancy Pelosi delivered a speech this morning at the 2010 Legislative Conference for the National Association of Counties (NACo). This year marks the 75th anniversary of the organization. Below are the Speaker’s remarks:
But we have to pass the bill so that you can find out what is in it, away from the fog of the controversy.
Seriously .. what. the. fuck. ? I’ve never been much for insightful commentary but this just leaves me speechless … there really are no words. (aside from ‘what the fuck’).
Poll Dancing
Scouring the interwebtubethingy for news, I came across a poll over at the Washington Times:
A majority of Americans say the United States is less respected in the world than it was two years ago and think President Obama and other Democrats fall short of Republicans on the issue of national security, a new poll finds.
The Democracy Corps-Third Way survey released Monday finds that by a 10-point margin — 51 percent to 41 percent — Americans think the standing of the U.S. dropped during the first 13 months of Mr. Obama’s presidency.
The really interesting part about this poll is that it was conducted by Democracy Corps(e) and Third Way. Democracy Corps(e) was founded by none other than James Carville, former Bill Clinton adviser, and Stanley Greenberg, Democratic pollster. Third Way bills itself as “the leading moderate think-tank of the progressive movement.” So, not exactly non-partisan.
The Democrats’ gap on national security has widened on several other fronts:
“Keeping America safe”: Democrats now trail by 13 points (34 percent to 47 percent.) The gap was just 5 points in July 2008.
“Ensuring a strong military”: Democrats trail by 31 points (27 percent to 58 percent.)
“Making America safer from nuclear threats”: Democrats trail by 11 points (34 percent to 45 percent,) “despite the president’s strong actions and speeches on steps to reduce nuclear dangers,” the pollsters said.
And yet, the pollsters think this is surprising, because Prez Obama has had wonderful accolades the world over, not to mention he was awarded the Nobel Piss Prize. Here’s a newsflash: Obama gets accolades for eroding our standing in the world, and he gets them from politicians. Remember the words of the head of the Nobel Piss Prize committee:
“He got the prize for what he has done.”
Nevermind that nominations for the prize had to be postmarked by February 1, only 12 days after Prez Obama took office. And let’s not forget how Irena Sendler was passed over, either, first in favor of The Goron and the IPCC, and then Prez Obama and his Twelve Days of Teh Glories.
Fuck ‘em with the epic fuckfist of FAIL.
Punishment via Taxes
I was reading this over at AIR.
First: Punish something and you get less of it. Let’s be more specific: Tax the everloving shit out of people who make money, and their incentive to make more money will drop. Either that or they’ll take their money and leave. It really isn’t all that hard to understand, even though we freely admit that grokking it doesn’t provide you with quite the same level of masturbatory pleasure that being able to say “I voted for the first black president” gets you. If you’re as shallow as a dish and dumber than a Barbara Boxer of Rocks, that is.
Here’s the thing I don’t get. The left has no problem figuring that taxing tobacco makes people stop smoking, and they understand that higher taxes on junk food makes people stop buying the stuff. Yet when you suggest that higher taxes on making money would make people stop making money …. you get a look like you just told them that the universe does not, in fact, revolve around BHO.
PS: I also noticed they need to fix their mod_rewrite settings.
Righteous Bitchslap of the Day
Yesterday was the much-touted and over-blown “Healthcare Summit” at Blair House. I admit curiosity got the better of me, and against my better judgment, I watched it until my mind settled into a comatose haze. Longest fifteen minutes of my life. However, there were some highlights to be gleaned:
You’ll notice Prez Obama is not enjoying this…. This. Is. AWESOME.
ACORN Changes Name, Still Just Nuts
Today came word that the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, known as ACORN, has decided to disband its national name in favor of “reorganizing under new local community groups to get away from the notoriety” of the acronym. While some say it’s a new and different organization, others are not so blind:
“This desolving of the national structure by ACORN is just a PR head fake. It’s a sham,” Matthew Vadum of the Capital Research Center in Washington, D.C. told Fox News. He says the new organizations will just continue ACORN’s work with the same agenda, in the same offices, just under different names. [snip]
“ACORN wants to keep the money flowing,” says Vadum. “In order to do that, they figure they need to change the name and change their image and they’re doing that by re-incorporating their state chapters under new names.”
ACORN has suffered deep losses after the James O’Keefe released videos of ACORN’s willingness to help a pimp with child prostitution and illegal immigration, among other things. Still, they manage to use him to raise money:
“Can you chip in $52 to help us keep the pressure on O’Keefe and his corporate paymasters?” the fundraising letter asked.
Though ACORN is actively campaigning, they do not disclose if the “new” organizations will get the money they raise. Interesting, no?
Hmmm….I’m sensing a naming contest here…. Who can come up with the best new name for ACORN???
