No Runny Eggs

The repository of one hard-boiled egg from the south suburbs of Milwaukee, Wisconsin (and the occassional guest-blogger). The ramblings within may or may not offend, shock and awe you, but they are what I (or my guest-bloggers) think.

The Morning Scramble – 6/30/2008

Let’s see if I can get this done quickly; I’m off to Cedar Point since I’m almost all the way down here…

  • I would be remiss if I didn’t show you what I ate this weekend. The rest of you Morons just don’t know what you missed.
  • Crunchie0311 (or is it 0311 crunchie?) smacked down the Chicago Tribune’s editorial idiotorial board. That reminds me; I’ll have to restart the Idiotorial of the Day contest when I get back.
  • Kate has the cartoon of the day.
  • JammieWearingFool reports a French commando “accidentally” used live ammunition during an open day demonstration. Fortunately, nobody died (yet), though out of 16 wounded, 4 were in serious condition.
  • Fausta exposes Barack Obama’s New-Ageism. I wonder what the out-of-the-country Islamists will think about that.
  • Warner Todd Huston notes just how little respect the Cult of Obamination has for opposing viewpoints (pay attention, those of you using Blogger; if you haven’t been targeted yet, you likely will be).
  • William Teach predicts a bus-tossing for Wesley Clark. Put me down for high noon Tuesday.
  • Headless Blogger explores what happens when the tracks get flooded out. That’s right, AMTRAK is a government operation.
  • Bill Quick notes the presstitute follies are beginning with the reporting on the anti-Obama/anti-John McCain/pro-Hillary Clinton vandalizing of a bunch of cars in Florida.
  • Sister Toldjah runs through a couple more bogus attacks on McCain from the left.
  • Karl offers a sage piece of advice to McCain on the economy; less is more.
  • I doubt McCain will take it; after all, nocomme1 notes he isn’t exactly into us conservatives.
  • Shoebox coined a new term for the no-drill ‘Rats – DOPES. It definitely fits.
  • Tom McMahon delivers the 4-Block to hope and reality.
  • Uncle Jimbo and Kev launched a Freefly into professional journalist treasonist Seymour Hersh, the aforementioned Clark, and the aforementioned Frenchie (standard Freefly language rules apply).
  • Kevin Fischer notes Japan has gone to a very strict waist-measurement regime. If Healthy (and Depopulated) Wisconsin or the Obamination Health Care plan comes to fruition, this is our future.
  • Lance Burri has today’s useless public union news; the unionized Baraboo city workers have filed a grievance because the volunteer firefighters were filling sandbags during the height of the flooding. My solution; next time, sandbag everything except the union thugs’ homes.

President of the DOPES?

 In early June, as the debate over rising gas prices was heating up, Barack Obama was quoted as saying:

I think that I would have preferred a gradual adjustment. The fact that this is such a shock to American pocketbooks is not a good thing.

The “Greenest convention ever” is touting their 450 vehicle fleet of cars, 20% of which will be E85 vehicles. Even though the host city is far behind in their fundraising efforts, they convinced Coors to kick in the fuel for the E85 vehicles.

Watch the relief on the DNC’s Director of Transportation as he describes the benefit of having E85 fuel donated:

Yup, you heard it right! Andrew Sullivan, Director of Transportation for the DNC said”

I’m always up for free gas! Especially with prices being what they are today!

 

Gas prices an issue for the DNC? How can that be?

If the DNC’s presumptive nominee has any say about it, today’s gas prices will look like a bargain in the near future. The combination of no increased drilling, increasing taxes on oil companies, implementing cap and trade and suing sovereign nations, will do nothing but increase gas prices and further erode the pocketbooks of every American family!

Over at Redstate.com the term COPEC has been coined. COPEC stands for “Congresspersons Opposed To Petroleum Extraction in our Country.” Seeing as how most of the Republicans have finally gotten the message on oil exploration and domestic production, I propose COPEC be changed to simply DOPES, Democrats Opposed to Petroleum and for Energy Sacrifice. It seems fitting that Barack Obama will be the Presidential nominee for the DOPES!

As a complete aside, isn’t every drop of beer Coors makes “waste beer?”
