BHO's Illegal Uncle Omar Arrested, Asks To Call WH

Posted By Dave Snope

President Barack Obama’s uncle, facing deportation for being in the country illegally, will not be treated differently than anyone else under U.S. laws, White House Press Secretary Jay Carney told CNSNews.com on Thursday.

“I would refer you to ICE [Immigration and Customs Enforcement] and DHS [Department of Homeland Security]. It will be handled like any other immigration case,” Carney said.


Yeah, he'll get handled just like Barack's illegal Auntie Zeituni was handled. No special treatment here.

No gulf hurricanes again this year

Posted By Dave Snope

Al-Guardian has connected Lee to global warming with the usual throwaway AGW statement at the end of storm articles:

The storm – which will be named Lee if it turns into a hurricane – is likely to cause torrential rain and coastal flooding from the Florida panhandle to Texas, said the hurricane centre's director, Bill Read.

"We've got a huge area of moisture, we've got a developing wind field ," Read said. "We're probably going to see some tremendous rain amounts and the corresponding flooding that goes with that."

Hurricane Irene hit the US east coast over the weekend, killing at least 40 people, while a second hurricane, Katia, is already gathering in the Atlantic. Climatologists say global warming could be making these storms more frequent.

The funny thing is, the storm is already named Lee. Tropical storms get names. Ignoramous.

Global Warming Petition Project

Posted By Dave Snope

That certainly covers all of the physical and biological processes that have been claimed to have been affected by global warming. AGW covers a broad range of disciplines. All it needs are some scientists with discipline.

Reminds me of Jared Diamond's preface to his excellent book "Guns, Germs, and Steel". He pointed out that to handle the topic it takes someone with knowledge of anthropology, medicine, history, botany, linguistics...

Obama's 'Job Speech' this Thursday

Posted By Dave Snope

Aren't you waiting with bated breath for his Labor day speech? He's supposed to talk about the dismal jobs situation shortly and perhaps preview his plan. Maxine says to Go Big and spend a trillion dollars.

EU and Asia stock markets dropped heavily today thanks to President Zero's jobs performance. He needs one of his "the oceans began to recede, the planet started to heal" moments.

I just saw Elaine Chao, former Secy of Labor, say that the amount of regulations that are flowing out of Washington is like an avalanche, like a tsunami, the regulations are strangling businesses. And with constant talk of more government spending and also record future tax increases, it is more than enough to keep business from hiring and hold back on future spending.

Obama's 'Job Speech' this Thursday

Posted By Dave Snope

Check out the remarks from Jimmy Hoffa Jr., the warm-up act for President Zero. Lots of talk about being in a war on workers, we're gonna win that war, we're your army, and "let's take those sonovabi#$es out". Nice toned down rhetoric. What a thug.

Obama at bat

Posted By Dave Snope

Wow, that's really good. Thanks.

That reminds me of an early sour baseball event in BHO's presidential career. Throwing out the first pitch at Yankee Stadium. Big Brother forbade any cameras from covering home plate, and his Royal Narcissist was protected forever from having millions see his pitch go into the dirt. If that day didn't tell you who this man was, than you're drinking the hopey-changey kool-aid.

Which Red Neck Took It?

Posted By Dave Snope


(Reuters) - Two male soldiers have been taken into custody at Fort Bragg, North Carolina in connection with the disappearance of roughly 14,000 rounds of ammunition reported missing at the Army base on Wednesday morning, officials said on Saturday.

Military police would not release the names or ranks of the soldiers in custody.

The missing 5.56 millimeter ammunition is valued at about $3,600 and "can be purchased at any Wal-Mart," according to an official familiar with the investigation who spoke to Reuters only on condition of anonymity.

Ammunition handlers from the 82nd Airborne Division's 1st Brigade Combat Team reported the missing rounds, said division spokesman Staff Sergeant Joshua Ford.

The combat team uses the ammunition in the M4 carbine and M16 assault rifle, Ford said.

The 1st Brigade Combat Team was placed on lock-down for a few hours Wednesday night while officials searched for the ammunition, Ford said.

The investigation into the missing ammunition is ongoing, Ford said on Saturday, declining to elaborate.

$15 million Budget Battle That May End Outer Solar

Posted By Dave Snope

Wow! "Anti-science", "Reagan all over again", "end exploration". It's The Twilight Zone.

I think the funniest part of your post for me is the $3.5 trillion remark. Just a few years ago before Obama took office the budget was almost a trillion dollars less. Yet somehow we had space probes. BTW, the spending this year is expected to be $3.8 trillion, and it was $2.9 trillion right before Obama. So, maybe you should be hollering about all the money going to entitlements and government worker's cadillac compensation packages instead of space exploration.

Well, I guess that article achieved it's sole purpose: getting people excited and running around like chickens with heads cut off.
