Obama Says Something Stupid

According to President Barack "Can't-Do" Obama, the U.S. Government "can’t create jobs." The Can't-Do President has apparently never heard of President Franklin Deleano Roosevelt. Nor has Obama been paying attention to economists Alan Blinder, Joe Stiglitz, Paul Krugman, and Robert Reich, all of whom have been urging Mr. Can't-Do to follow President Franklin Roosevelt's example and rescue the economy by creating a direct hiring program!

Weiner: "The picture was of me, and I sent it."

Another day, another 12 year old boy caught trying to pass as a grown man:

"I take full responsibility for my actions," Weiner said. "The picture was of me, and I sent it."

The announcement came as ABC News prepared to release an interview with Meagan Broussard, a 26-year-old single mother from Texas who provided dozens of photos, emails, Facebook messages and cell phone call logs that she says chronicle a sexually-charged electronic relationship with Weiner that rapidly-evolved for more than a month, starting on April 20, 2011.

Sarah Palin Sucker-Punches Mitt Romney

If you'll look closely at the front page of today's edition of New Hampshire's Union Leader, you'll see a very small photo of Mitt Romney somewhere over there in the shadow of Sarah Palin's quite large photo. Romney was in New Hampshire to announce his candidacy for the GOP nomination for president. And he did so. Nevertheless, Sarah Palin - who just happened to be in New Hampshire on the very same day of Romney's very important announcement - stole his thunder and then some.

Women playing with the boyz at the highest level of politics in the male-dominated USA is a brand new experience. Love her or hate her, Palin is making history and breaking down barriers. No doubt about it, if it weren't for Sarah Palin, the Republican Party would bore us to death.

Strauss-Kahn Rape Hotel Lets Female Staff Wear Trousers

So when women don't wear skirts, we are not sexy enough, and when we do wear skirts, we are so sexy that men are driven to rape us:

Female staff at the Manhattan hotel where former IMF chief Dominique Strauss-Kahn allegedly sexually assaulted a chambermaid were being allowed Thursday to wear trousers instead of skirts, after a protest from employees, a union official said.

Sofitel, a hotel chain that prides itself on a traditional dress code, made the concession amid concern about the vulnerability of chambermaids after Strauss-Kahn was charged over allegations that he sexually assaulted and tried to rape a 32-year-old housekeeper. The alteration of its uniform code followed a meeting between staff and management that was also attended by a New York Hotel Workers Union representative.

Women Ordered to Wear Skirts by Sexist Badminton World Federation

The sexist Badminton World Federation (much like the U.S. Government it is ruled by 23 men and 2 women) thinks female badminton players should be more 'feminine,' and so has issued a new mandatory dress code: Women must wear skirts:

Like some other clueless idiots we know, deputy president of the Badminton World Federation (an American) Paisan Rangsikitpho denies he's sexist: "We just want them to look feminine and have a nice presentation so women will be more popular."

Palin Launches Nationwide Bus Tour

Sarah Palin is moving to the center of the 2012 presidential spotlight with the launch of a nationwide bus tour beginning this weekend. It's also true that Palin's new home in Arizona will make it much easier to run a presidential, or even a senatorial, campaign in 2012. And then there's the Sarah Palin movie which just happens to debut in Iowa, of all places.

Wisconsin Judge Strikes Down Anti-Union Law

A judge in Wisconsin just slapped back power-hungry Governor Walker by ruling that Walker's anti-union law is now null and void:

Judge Maryann Sumi of Dane County Circuit Court said the Senate vote on March 9, coming after 13 Democratic state senators had fled the state, failed to comply with an open meetings law requiring at least two hours notice to the public. The Wisconsin Supreme Court is scheduled to hear arguments in the case on June 6 , and Republican lawmakers are hoping that the court overturns Judge Sumi’s ruling and reinstates the law.

MSNBC host Ed Schultz is known for his hyperbolic attacks on Republicans but it looks like he may have crossed the line on his show yesterday by labeling Laura Ingraham a "right wing slut."

John Edwards to be Indicted

The Justice Department reportedly intends to indict sleazeball John Edwards for using campaign funds to support his mistress and hide the affair from the public during Edwards' presidential campaign. The indictment (or a possible plea bargain) is expected to come down within the next 2 weeks. What a pity for his children.

If Edwards wants pity, he should give Arnold a call.
