WTF Part II: $24,000 Date

The cost of the Obamas' date night.

I hope he got something for it.

WTF?

As folks are losing their jobs en masse across America, as taxes are rising with income shrinking, and as GM prepares for bankruptcy, Obama takes Michelle on a Broadway date in Manhattan.

Un-freaking-believable.

Sotomayor does not believe in the 1st Amendment Freedom of Speech: What a Douche bag!

Obama's nominee for the Supreme Court, Judge Sonia Sotomayor, sided against a student in the infamous “douche bag” case, and that has upset some free-speech advocates.

In August 2007, Sotomayor sat on a panel that ruled against an appeal in Doninger v. Niehoff.

Avery Doninger was disqualified from running for school government at Lewis S. Mills High School in Burlington, CT after she posted something on her blog, referring to the superintendent and other officials as "douche bags" because they canceled a battle of the bands she had helped to organize.

The case went to court and in March 2008, Sotomayor was on a panel that heard Doninger’s mother’s appeal alleging her daughter’s free speech and other rights were violated.

Sotomayor joined two other judges from the 2nd Circuit in ruling that the student’s off-campus blog remarks created a “foreseeable risk of substantial disruption” at the student’s high school and that the teenager was not entitled to a preliminary injunction reversing a disciplinary action against her.

No Country for Old Men, Women or Children

Where has my country gone? Now, it is no longer okay to show your patriotism at the office. An Arlington , Texas woman had proudly displayed a American flag in her office just before the Memorial Day weekend to honor her family and fellow countrymen; however, her supervisor was "offended" and removed it.

Since when is showing your love of the U.S. flag and your country offensive?

My suggestion to those that are offended: If you don't like it, please leave.

Obama and Gnomes

Sometimes it takes "South Park" to explain life's deeper mysteries. Like the logic of the Obama administration's policy proposals.

If you don't remember the episode, here is a vignette of the "Underpants Gnomes" explaining how to make a profit.

Interrogation Techniques in the New Administration

What is Common Ground for Abortion?

During Obama's commencement speech at Notre Dame, the university left out all ambiguity on whose side they are really on when it comes to abortion.

Addressing the issue head-on, Obama told graduates on Sunday that while the two sides may never agree on the issue, there is some common ground.

Well, I guess the North and South should have sought better "common ground" for their understanding of slavery.

Remember when African Americans were considered 3/5’s of a person? Thanks to the Civil War and good ol' Abe, they are now considered a whole person.

It begs the question: When will a baby be considered a whole baby?

Notre Dame: "Yes we can...kill children!"

I'm not kidding nor am I laughing.

As Obama began his commencement address at Notre Dame today, at least three protesters interrupted it. One yelled, "Stop killing our children."

The graduates responded by chanting "Yes we can," the slogan that became synonymous with Obama's presidential campaign.

Shutting down the truth everywhere you turn!

The U.S. Attorney’s Office in Massachusetts directed employees earlier this month not to log onto the Drudge Report website with government-issued computers claiming potential viruses on the site.

Backpeddling Already?

The change of heart is startling, but Obama stated today that he would try to block the court-ordered release of photos showing U.S. troops abusing prisoners.

He is supposedly reversing his position out of concern the pictures would "further inflame anti-American opinion" and endanger U.S. forces in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Take a Stand Notre Dame...Take a Stand!

Hot Diggity Dog!

I'm confused. Why is Feherty apologizing?

CBS Sports golf analyst, David Feherty was forced to apologize Sunday due his employer CBS Sports because of a well-done joke relating to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid.

When are Wanda Sykes and Obama going to be forced to apologize by their employers?

Life in the White House....

Michelle Obama says "Everyone should have a chief of staff and a set of personal assistants."

On a side note: Michelle kind of looks at home with those muppets.

Car Czars

The White House, presumably car czar Steven Rattner and deputy Ron Bloom, is seeking to transfer the property of one group of people to another group that is politically favored.

In the process, it is setting aside basic property rights in favor of rewarding the United Auto Workers for the support the union has given the Democratic Party. The only possible limit on the White House’s power is the bankruptcy judge, who might not go along.

This is how our President Obama celebrates Cinco de Mayo:

"Happy Cuatro de Cinco!"
