Bumper Stickers (I’m a Bad Boy!)

OK; now I’m dangerous since I found this site that creates bumper stickers.  With my warped mind, that’s a dangerous thing.  I’ll start with a matching pair:

Which naturally leads to:

 

Overseas Endorsements

Some interesting people overseas seem to have some perspectives on our upcoming election.  Barack got a pretty clear endorsement from Asia, an expression of concern for his well-being from Africa, and a non-endorsement endorsement from nearer to home.

John McCain picked up one from someone I’m sure John would have appreciated not getting to know so well.

Add all this up and throw in my ‘enthusiasm’ for an open-borders RINO as the GOP nominee and I’ve come up with the bumper sticker for my car:

And of course, someone came up with this recycling of the Seal that Obama just clubbed:

I’m Shocked, Shocked! Iraqi politicians are acting like ours!

Since the MSM can’t deny the progress in Iraq, they are hunting far and wide for negativity and found some:  the Iraqi Legislature is suffering deadlock and incompetance and mainly seems concerned about themselves.  How dare they act like OUR legislators, who- for the 40th time- are trying (and failing) to do the President’s job (running a war) while completely ignoring their own (passing an overall budget, rather than bits and pieces for political gain).

Boy, was I wrong! And I can’t stop laughing! (Actually, ended up right in the end).

Here is my post at the TPZoo that got them implying threats against a charity that supports orphans:

“Not a chance, folks; sorry. It won’t get off the ground because of the upcoming election. As soon as the first round of the primaries are done and the Kuciniches and other marginals are eliminated by the HillBill machine, the Dem leadership will deepsix the word ‘impeach’ through November. Doing otherwise likely would put the GOP nominee in the White House.

You all really don’t understand how this all works, do you? All kowtowing to the Left ends after the nomination is assured; no one wants another McGovern ‘Death March’.”

Brother was I wrong, but for a reason that almost got me falling on the floor laughing so hard at the absolute brilliance of the GOP leadership.  At the last minute, they started switching as a block to bring the bill to the floor for a vote!  Pelosi is scrambling around trying to get the Dems to vote to table it, looking like a complete idiot; her leadership has become a laughing stock.

The purpose is a ‘put up or shut up’ vote and there is no way the Democrat Party will let the bill pass through; they will have to kill it themselves or face a ‘McGovern Death March’, with the radicals of the party controling dialog right up to November ‘08.  It’s looking like Pelosi may muster her troops sufficient to kill it here, but either way, she becomes the ‘Foole of the Week’.  The netroots will be peeling her skin off for quite some time.   It is indeed unfortunate that the first woman Speaker turned out to be the chamber’s most incompetant.

My hats off to the GOP in the House; a brilliant move and something I should have anticipated.  I’m slipping up in my old age.

Alas, it looks like the Dems managed to shove it to the Judiciary Committe, where it will die quietly, never to be brought forward again.  The GOP allowed the Dems crawl whimpering off; count on the MSM to bury this story quickly and deep.

The Zoo Animals are all charged up about pounding on the Judiciary Committee to get this bill out for a vote.  I truly wish them luck (it would be a gift for the GOP if it did; a gift that keeps on giving), but it ain’t gonna happen.  My original post still applies.  And the latest is they can’t understand why there’s no coverage of it in the MSM; I guess I need to give them a clue:

The MSM is burying this story because the leader of their beloved Democrats in power put on a show that would have embarrassed the Keystone Kops.  It looked like she was trying to herd feral cats and the GOP threw a big, hungry pit bull into the mix. 

And she’s third in line for the Presidency??

BTW: John Conyers was one of the 81 Democrat ‘Switcheroos’ (those to voted to proceed, then changed their vote to table when it looked like it was going to pass).  And what are the odds of it coming out of his committee to the floor?

Awww, poor Owen Wilson and all the other miserable celebrities

I propose to start the Michael Openshaw Celebrity African Rehab Center.  For the mere sum of $25,000 (probably not a fifth of what they spend elsewhere), I’ll grab them by their scruffy hair, drag them onto the economy class section of 24 hours of travel to Uganda, throw them into the back of an open truck with the fruit and the chickens and haul their sorry asses out to the Sabine orphanage in Rakai province. 

Hey, Owen; these kids have no idea who the heck you are! 

There, nobody has a clue who they are (other than a Mzungu- ‘White person, presumed rich’).  I’ll put them to work filling potholes, digging out broken sewer pipes, helping kids work vegetable plots and generally make themselves actually useful.  There they’ll meet kids who think a single piece of chicken is a feast, who will give a big smile and kneel in gratitude if given a basic pencil and pad, who get up to scrub every hard surface before they march off to school at 6:30 am.

The celebrities can listen to rats crawl through the rafters at night, learn to squat over a slot latrine, and figure out the tricks to taking bucket baths with cold water.  They’ll ride to the trade centers and hide in the back of the truck (to keep prices for being jacked up to Mzungu levels).  They will be pointed at and talked about, not for who they are, but for the color of their skin.  They will not be allowed cell phone, nor contact with the outside world, and will only get the news from the local channels.

 They’ll go make home visits to the various hovels and listen to stories of the horrors of being orphaned by war, poverty and AIDs.  They will NOT be allowed to let anyone know who they are; if they do, the disclaimer I’d have them sign would give me the right to dump them out in the western swamplands 50 miles from the nearest phone.

Three weeks of that and they’ll come back thinner, having accomplished the first worthwhile things they have in years; they will thank God for their ’normal’ lives and will sign a pledge never to feel sorry for themselves again.  If they ever start whining again, that pledge would allow me to take them back for 6 full months of continued rehabilitation (and they pay the full freight).

As for the kids: the excess from the $25K would pay for a much better diet and more educational opportunities; not to mention getting a few rats and a bunch of malaria-laden mosquitos killed.
