I’m scanning the various websites that I regularly peruse and am beginning to wonder if I have had some kind of a Rip VanWinkle episode and have just awoken on April 1st. The other option might be that the MSM has finally collapsed and The Onion is now writing all “news” stories. Can any of this stuff be real?
Nelson: We should have waited on health care:Senator Nelson is in full CYA mode as he sees the public outcry increase over his support of placebocare. Following the selling of his vote, he tried the “no, I didn’t get anything special. Everyone will get the Medicaid support,” approach. That didn’t stem the pitch forks and torches streaming towards his office. Now, he’s trying a twist on the Obama approach claiming “this isn’t the health care bill you thought you knew!” Along with, “I wish we could have focused on other things!”
Um, Senator Nelson, your vote is what caused the legislation to move forward. If you had really thought that other things should have been focused on, the withholding of your vote could have caused that to happen.
Or, how about this:
National security adviser: Airline bomber report to ‘shock’– A simple response, “Ah, NO!” The only thing “shocking” about what we will read in this report is that several bus loads of inept, uber politically correct politicos still have their jobs and haven’t been shipped to some Arctic outpost! The only person in America who will be “shocked” by this report will be Janet Napolitano whose eyes will be opened for the first time, to the fact that they system DID NOT work as planned!
And finally:
TSA Agent Arrested at LAX – What’s not in the headline is that he was arrested after acting erratically and shouting:
“I am god, I’m in charge.”
The article goes on to imply that his shouts were drug induced. Drug induced? Like hell! If every TSA employee who had a god complex was arrested and fired we’d have a far smaller TSA with absolutely no decrease in air safety!
Have you gone through LAX lately? That TSA goon might have been the one who sent you to Travel Hell.
