"The Obama administration censored 194 pages of internal e-mails about its Open Government Directive"

Contradiction, anyone?

Ya know, all those idiots who drank the Kool-Aid are imposing their idiocy on the rest of us who didn't. Really crunches my cookies.
"Open Government Directive" my ass. How much more of this bullshit do we have to endure??

Just be happy that your chocolate ration was only increased to 15 grams/day from 20 grams/day, Flynne.

Also, Orwell just called to say "Hey, I was off by a few decades, don't sue me!"

"Come on, rubes," said the frustrated presidential spokesperson, "what part of 'at least we're not the Bush administration' don't you understand? Shouldn't that be enough for you? Now come on, everybody, let's sing."

This is the same Government that wants to colonize Mars? We havent properly colonized *this* fucking planet yet. Put NASA to work developing alternative fuel sources so we can tell the arabs to eat their oil. Rather than wasting billions on useless Mars exploration lets do something that will benefit us all. I shudder at the thought of the human race screwing up another place in space that's doing quite well without us.

Kumbaya My Lord Kumbaya! Kumbaya!

Really! Did you expect CHANGE (tm). These are politicians! They may come in different colors and will screw you in different ways. The effect is still the same 4/8 years later - not much was done and your still screwed albeit if your lucky in a whole different way. No it was not go for me!

Just be happy that your chocolate ration was only increased to 15 grams/day from 20 grams/day, Flynne.

Hah! They haven't found my secret stash yet, the bastids!

Sunshine Award Event Postponed for Unspecified Reasons. http://politicalwire.com/archives/2011/03/16/sunshine_award_event_postponed_for_unspecified_reasons.html

I guess the hoots of derisive laughter drowned out Teh Won. Can't have that on National TeeVee.

What do you order at Obama's restaurant? "Oh, just bring me something different."

What is on the menu? "We're changing the menu, we hope to tell you later."

"I'll have the special, Duck a l'Orange with Potatoes au Gratin for $.99". "Sorry, the special has been changed to a hot dog and chips for $20.99. We'll bring you that. Most of that goes to help the poor. There is no need to pay now, we have your credit card number."

How many people are needed to screw in a lightbulb? About 1000, according to the stimulus plan.

Oldie but Goodie:

A woman was getting married for the fourth time, and had selected a nice white dress for the wedding ceremony. "What? You can't do that!" said her friends. "You have to be a virgin to wear white, and you've been married three times already!" (This was the old days, you see.)

"But I am a virgin," the woman protested. "Don't you remember my first husband? I took off after I caught him getting it on with the hotel receptionist before I'd even unpacked our bags on our honeymoon. My second? He had a coronary and croaked before he even got his pants off."

"What about the third?" her friends asked. "You were married to him longest."

"Well," the woman said, "he was a Democrat. All he did was sit on the edge of the bed for four years and tell me how good everything was going to be!"

I don't mind a little secrecy in government. It's necessary when dealing with potential enemies.

What I mind is that the enemy, apparently, is us.

Appropriate for St. Patrick's Day:
Two Irishmen out fishing on a small lake hooked something from the bottom, and pulling it into the boat discovered an old lamp. Seamus tried to clean if off when --poof-- a genie appeared. The genie said he'd honor one wish, so Seamus blurted out "I wish the lake were all Guinness."
Magically the lake turned into a vast expanse of Guinness. His buddy, Mike raged "you damn fool, look what you did..now we'll have to pee in the boat."

I'm pretty tired of people bashing those of us who voted for Obama... As if we had ANY other viable choice?

Did you REALLY want the country run by hot headed McCain and White House Barbie? Really?

Sometimes you vote for the one you think will f*ck it up the least and after the mess Bush left and the nutjobs that seem to be running the GOP these days -the ones that want us to focus on non issues like gay marriage while their corporate butt buddies run our economy into the ground and pick our pockets with corporate bailouts.... Lots of us just didn't think we could afford another four years.

I didn't have a huge amount of confidence in Obama, but frankly I realize that NO one will ever get elected to Presidential office in this country anymore without the big corporate dollars from their overlords.

Unless there are some very fundamental changes made to prevent big business from buying elections, we are all basically sharecroppers on our masters plantation.

The American people have lost control of our country and we are not getting it back. Now we're just fighting to keep from being Soylent Green.
