Median Home prices are falling, foreclosures are rising, insurance rates are going up (while coverage is declining), grocery prices are rising, livestock feed prices are going up, existing taxes are going up, tax credits are being axed, new fees are being added to many services, wages are static, declining or not keeping up with inflation, our government officials are increasingly corrupt (seriously, folks – how can BO keep a straight face when he appoints a tax cheat to run the treasury dept.?), and EVERYTHING IS JUST FINE, IT’S ALL BUSH’S FAULT AND THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE HERE, MOVE ALONG.
I swear, if I see that unicorn, I am going to shoot the S.O.B. and barbecue him.
Unicorn, the other white meat.
We’re Invading Haiti?
Venezuela’s President Hugo Chavez thinks we are invading Haiti, using the earthquake as a pretext. Quote from This Blog Is Full Of Crap:
“If the US wants poverty, AIDS, unemployment, suffering, and pissed-off people who don’t speak English, we could just invade Detroit.”
It would be much more convenient.
If you feel the need to help out, (REALLY HELP OUT) check out Team Rubicon and send some $$ and prayers their way. Team Rubicon is a self-financed and self-deployed group of former Marines, soldiers and health care professionals currently providing emergency relief in Haiti. Good people, doing good.
Changing the Rules
Well, it looks like Scott Brown has won the MA election to fill the seat vacated by the death of The Swimmer. So here are my predictions:
- There will be an immediate call for a recount, citing widespread fraud. (It has to be fraud, doesn’t it? After all the Dimmiycrats didn’t win…)
- There will be a host of reasons that the winning candidate can’t be seated immediately. (Until after the vote on Obamacare….)
- There will be a call for a change of rules, so that the loss of a seat will not put the party in the majority at a disadvantage – i.e. lets get rid of that pesky filibuster…
I will have to see if I am a Psychic … or just Psychotic. Oh well, I’ve been called worse.
