Everything you Need To Know About Why California Is Toast

2012-01-31T16:00:00.002-07:00

But Chiang said additional cash management solutions are needed because state tax revenues are $2.6 billion less than what Gov. Jerry Brown and state lawmakers assumed in their optimistic budget last year. Meanwhile, Chiang said, the state is spending $2.6 billion more than state leaders planned on.

So even if they had gotten their magically optimistic level of tax revenue, they still spent even more than that. Genius.

p.s. And as usual, California, stay in your own damn state. You made the mess, you live with it.

Breaking News! Barack Obama's Secret Letter To Iran Leaders Revealed!

2012-01-19T11:40:00.000-07:00

When I first saw some rumor that Barack Obama had sent a secret letter to Iranian officials, I thought, right, like we're supposed to believe those gosh darn lying Iranians. But then again, Barry hasn't really exactly been Mr. Trustworthy. Unfortunately we now know the contents of that letter and lengths to which Obama was willing to negotiate.

Our B+ President Is Being Graded On A Curve

2011-12-23T01:18:00.013-07:00

A really generous curve. Playing Protect The Retard™ the other day, Tommy Christopher corrects New Jersey governor Chris Christie's assertion that Barack Obama had a full two years of filibuster-proof-to-pass-any-bill-I-want majority in Congress cause c'mon he only had like 7 months. And while you may wonder how a former community organizer couldn't have gotten by with just 59 votes and then used his considerable community organizer-y powers to muster more than zero votes, Tommy moves on to the advanced version of Protect The Retard (Special Edition)™ to explain that, really, he actually only had 14 weeks. I'm not sure why anyone would be drawing attention to how ineffective Obama has been as President but if they really want to pad his record they could also factor in his vacation and cocktail party time. Then they could knock his filibuster-proof Congress time down to maybe one afternoon. On a Friday. And you know no one wants to work on a Friday afternoon.

p.s. If this is the kind of crap that journalists are shoveling now to protect this adorable little puppy of a president, then next year's election season is going to be absolutely delicious.

This Is What YouTube Is For...

2011-12-22T23:52:00.006-07:00

I love this James Bond stuff. For whatever reason, I was trolling YouTube looking for old F1 races when I found this, the security video of a Mossad operation from last year. What do you do when you're after an arms dealer who kidnapped and killed two Israeli soldiers? If you're Israel, you hatch a highly complicated assassination plot involving at least thirty people and multiple origin and escape countries and take the sob out.

Guess Who's Got Himself A New Nickname

I was watching one of those History Channel things when they happened to mention that because of her massive spending habits and the failing French economy at the time, Marie Antoinette was called Madame Déficit. Considering that we just hit $15 trillion in debt while running trillion dollar deficits, I think someone just earned a new nickname.

So anyway, I've been having trouble coming up with things to write about to entertain you people, so I've been trying to shake myself out of this funk. But nothing's worked. Finally, the other day I said to myself, "Self, turn on the computer and write anything about the very first article that catches your attention, just to get it out of the way." This is the article.

I...I have no words. Probably the worst part about this is that the "Feds" who regulate sperm donation are the Food and Drug Administration.

Best Of 2011: This Is How I'll Remember The Occupy Wall Street "Movement"

2011-12-22T22:21:00.000-07:00

Time to catch up on stuff and clean out the never-made-it-to-the-blog bin before the year is up. In the same way that I remember those Star Wars prequels by the epic Harry Plinkett takedowns, this is how I'll remember the OWS trash of 2011. Adam Corolla gets on a roll (poor Alison Rosen) and goes off. Horribly profane but spot on.

In Case There Was Any Confusion...

2011-11-20T00:54:00.002-07:00

"The American People will take Socialism, but they won't take the label. I certainly proved it in the case of EPIC. Running on the Socialist ticket I got 60,000 votes, and running on the slogan to 'End Poverty in California' I got 879,000. I think we simply have to recognize the fact that our enemies have succeeded in spreading the Big Lie. There is no use attacking it by a front attack, it is much better to out-flank them."

That's socialist Upton Sinclair in 1951 giving us a peek behind the transparent curtain of socialism, EPIC, redistributionism, communalism or whatever name they choose to use to reach their end result.
