I dunno about you, but all this political talk gets me down sometime. 2012 was sort of a bummer. No matter what happens, the fiscal cliff deal is a trainwreck getting nuked in a supernova.
That’s why I read Manhattan Infidel.
For those of you who don’t know, Manhattan Infidel…’Mister Infidel’, if you’re nasty…has been serving up fresh helpings of politically-tinged pop culture-friendly satire on teh intertubes for almost six hundred years. In that time, I don’t think he’s ever done a ‘best of’ post. Since he won’t, I figured I’d do one for him.
Kris Kringle’s Good Behavior/Bad Behavior Surveillance Program went from “charming” to “Orwellian” overnight.
Santa Claus: Just another liberal fascist?
More importantly…Dear BDKS homies, have a very Merry Christmas.
I hope jolly ole Saint Nick gives you everything on your wish list, without all the newfangled voyeuristic spying.
I also want to say thanks to all the readers who come to Blog De KingShamus. You guys and gals rule. Thanks for stopping by and making this goofy little webzone cool. My posts always get intelligent commentary, often smarter than the actual posts themselves. That’s pretty awesome and for that you have my eternal gratitude.
So Merry Christmas to you, Gentle Readers. May you be blessed with faith and fellowship on this great holiday. Stay safe in your travels. Keep the reason for the season in your hearts.
Also, wearing a tin-foil hat to stop Santa’s mind-reading rays might not be a bad idea either. ;-p
The ‘Mmmm Mmmm Mmmm–Barack Hussein Obama Children’s Choir’ were unavailable for this gig.
Shorter Future Children Project: Report your Romney-supporting parents to the Ministry of Love today!
Notice the concerns the makers of this propaganda place into the mouths of children. Endangered polar bears? Not even Premier Obama thinks that. Rampant strip mines dotting the American landscape? That’s news to the miners. Conservatives think our failing schools are good enough? That must be why Milton Friedman was a proponent of school choice reform since the Eisenhower Administration. Endless wars? Here’s another ten years of Obama drone strikes, you worthless hypocritical peace-creeps.
What’s really amazing is wayback machine quality of the ad. The Left always accuses conservatives of wanting to travel back in time, but who is actually living in the past? The writers of the douchey bit act as if Barack Obama is still Captain Jesus-Man Lightbringer promising lower ocean levels and lower middle class tax rates. The last four years–$5 trillion dollars of debt, sky high unemployment, economic illiteracy–never happened for these progressives.
Or maybe this ad is just meant to stir the turd. The only people that might even sorta respond are die hard Obama fanbois and right-wingers making fun of them. So it’s not really a campaign spot that’s meant to get people to the polls. It’s more like the flip-side of Jon Stewart’s clap humor.
Okee-dokee. It’s your dime, Future Children Project. Enjoy your pointless uninspiring performance art.
I spotted this over at the terrific Coalition of The Swilling. Thanks, Mr. Bingley.
So Hurricane Sandy is headed up the Beast Coast. I’m gonna be busy tying down my shit down so it doesn’t become the Flying Gazebo of Massive Property Damage, so I’ll keep this brief.
Check out these totally-real, not-fake Facebook conversations between NFL players.
There was a lot of talk at last week’s Democrat National Convention of the hardships and challenges left behind by the Premier Dumbya regime that Barack Obama had to deal with when he became President.
I know what you’re thinking.
I too am shocked that the Democrats, normally loathe to blame George Bush for any problem, would turn to pinning Obama’s problems on the previous administration.
Leave it to the great Opus_6 at the American Perspective blog to give us some…ummm…perspective on the President’s blame games.
Consider just one way that our Fiscal Pyromaniac-in-Chief has poured napalm all over the Great Recession. ObamaCare hangs over the US economy like a death shroud. In the coming years, insane taxes hikes and massive new regulatory structures promise to choke any possible recovery in the womb.
George Bush didn’t demand that Obama employ the hated individual mandate in his socialized medicine plans. George Bush didn’t force Obama to give Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi carte blanche when it came to writing a nationalized health care scheme. George Bush didn’t make Obama sign a 2000 page abomination that will put a permanent wet blanket on the American economy. St. Bambi did all that on his own.
Furthermore, the Democrats and the dinosaur media (sorry, I repeated myself) spent the Younger Bush years portraying G-Dub as a drooling incompetent, incapable of tying his shoes, much less running an economy. Then President Pitching Wedge and his supporters have the brass to act as if Obama has been hopelessly constrained by George Bush’s clever machinations.
Bear in mind: This doesn’t even get into other economy killing measures that Obama has a raging Marx-boner for, like Cap-n-Trade, his hatred of fossil fuels, his failed stimulus spending or pretty much his entire domestic agenda. We’re just talking about ObamaCare.
SORTA RELATED: Yes, Obama had it tough when he first started out. Everybody acknowledges this. At the same time, he’s the one who ran for the job. Obama was the one who pined to be President, even with a paper-thin resume, no real-world executive experience and a noted Stalinist dickbag domestic terrorist for a political mentor.
Obama knew the economy was going to be in shambles when he took over. He understood the housing market collapse, the derivatives crunch and everything else that went into the recession. And yet, here we are, four years later and the guy is still pissing his pants about how tough he had it in 2009 and how hard it is for him now.
So America is supposed to wring our collective hands and give Obama the Victim-in-Chief a do-over because he’s such a glorious human being. He and his sycophants want the US electorate to treat St. Barry of the Holy Participant Ribbon like a child who had no idea what he was getting into when he ran for fifth gradesophomore class president. Citizens, ignore Obambi’s failures; he’s a nice guy and a great dad and devoted husband and doggone it, he cares.
Say, did you hear? Barack Obama still occupies the Presidency. Don’t believe me? Check out his own tweet, confirming it.
Awwwwww, that’s so sweet of our President to remind America that he is still a whiny ineffective twerp who lets even the slightest mockery from an 82 year old man rattle him.
In any case, just to help Premier Barry O’Criesalot get over his hypersensitivity issues, lets all post pictures of an empty chair.
It’ll be therapeutic for Mr. Obama. Don’t doubt me. I’m not a psychologist, but I play one on teh intertubes.
And if Bob is a bigot, all of us have hate in our hearts! If you you doubt that, watch this handy-dandy educational video. It’s educational and it’s a video, so it must be true.
See, what did I tell you? We’re all Junior Member Nazi Trent Lott Jack-Boot Thug Wannabes because we disagree with the President. If we just start approving of Barack Obama’s policies, maybe we can someday purge ourselves of racial bias.
The Republican National Committee sent a birthday cake to the Democratic National Committee on Friday. The cake reads “you didn’t bake this” over a picture of President Obama. Text written in icing reads, “Happy birthday, Mr. President.”
The cake marks the occasion of the president’s birthday, which is Saturday, with a play on the “you didn’t build that” controversy. The RNC later reported the DNC sent the cake back.
You know what that cake tastes like?
Schadenfreude.
Rich. Sweet. Fluffy. Schadenfreude.
Thanks to the great @Stixblog for finding this. You rule, Stixster.
Sorry if this has been video/non-posting week. I’ve been very busy going to the beachcooking awesome barbeque chicken wingsshotgunning Miller High Lifenapping working incredibly hard on a massive project that requires every ounce of my attention. You know how these things go.
Anyway, being that I pretty much suck this week, how’s about we see what an actual good blogger has for us?
You know how you know this is a great country? Try putting Angela Merkel, David Cameron or Hu Jintao on that velociraptor. Yeah, you could slap them on a dinosaur, but it would look absurd. Reagan is so bad-ass that it works.
In any event, thanks for stopping by the ol’ bloggerino on the best day of the year. Enjoy this Independence Day. Celebrate! I hope you eat lots of great food, drink lots of delicious beer and watch awesome explosions.
Great work by Sharpwriter over at DeviantArt. Also big-time shout out to the one and only Snarky Basterd for the tip. Thanks, brother.
Via the great Tree Hugging Sister over at the ever-awesome Coalition of the Swilling.
Yes, because when liberals piss their pants and demand a recall and get their wish and then get completely annihilated in the vote; yeah that’s the end of democracy.
Funny how the 1.3 million voters who cast a ballot for Scott Walker last night weren’t taking part in the democratic process of voting. Uh-huh. Of course.
Remember this folks–It was the progressive movement in Wisconsin that screamed bloody murder for a recall. Not Scott Walker. Not the Wisconsin GOP. Not the RNC. No, this was the progressive movement’s super-genius plan, egged on by rocket surgeons like Rachel Maddow and EJ Dionne.
Even better, Democratic National Committee Hairdo-in-Chief Debbie Wasserman-Schultz insisted the recall was a dry run for November’s presidential contests. President Obama bailed the hell out of this thing when he saw the shit was about the hit the fan for Tom Barrett. Not Wasserman-Schultz. She brilliantly threw gasoline on the bonfire of a major Democratic loss, helping to turn the Wisconsin recall into a nationwide Thunderdome for everyone to see.
Now the progs are in full sputtering petulant teenager mode because for once a Republican dared to work the system better than they did.
Remind me why I’m supposed to feel sorry for these people.
Fucking reap the whirlwind you brought upon yourselves, Stalinists.
Hey, maybe this will be a time of reflection for the American left. Maybe they’ll rethink their priorities. Maybe they’ll figure out that their ideas are out of step with many Americans.
Mark my words. There will be no realization (definitely not publicly) of lack of popularity amongst the die-hard public unionists, progressives, and other fellow travelers. They will double down on such things as blaming the Koch Brothers, Bilderbergers, the Trilateral Commission, and what-have-you.
Reality check courtesy of the great and powerful Meep over at the tremendous Conservative Commune.
Hey, the Right scored a nice little win last night. But this is just a single battle in the war for 2012. The Left is just deluded enough to think that it’s their communication that’s screwed up, not their actual shitty policies.
I guess what I’m trying to say is: Buck up conservatives. This ain’t over by a damn sight.
I’m in the midst of interviewing Glenn Morton, the creator of the sinister Dr. Obamacare. I’ll be rolling out our conversation before the premier of “The Sick Cents” next Tuesday. Mr. Morton has a lot of insights and a few surprises too.
I apologize for the post making fun of Gerard Butler.
I deleted the whole thing.
Gerard Butler has a problem that I shouldn’t have made light of.
From what I’ve heard, he’s not an evil dude. He’s not any more spoiled or out of touch than anybody else in Hollyweird. It doesn’t seem like he’s an America-hater or a complete douchenozzle. But even if he was, that doesn’t excuse me cracking on him.
Hell, I liked him in “300″. I thought he did a great job as Leonidas. It wouldn’t have been a great film without his work, which means the dude is talented.
So for what it’s worth I apologize. I was wrong and I will try to do better in the future. More importantly, I hope Gerard Butler gets help and gets clean soon. He’s a gifted actor who will hopefully make more cool movies in the future.
But I’m not gonna stop making fun of Mariah Carey.
Do something about your wifey’s clothes Nick Cannon. Don’t you guys have stylists? Or mirrors in your house? C’mon, man.
