What I was rambling about last night? Here’s another example — four of the top headlines linked on Drudge this morning:
Iran is now a ‘nuclear state’ says Ahmadinejad as thousands take to the streets
Time for Obama to go ‘gangsta’ on GOP
AdvertisementObama ‘Agnostic’ on Deficit Cuts, Won’t Prejudge Tax Increases
Florida schools giving away $350,000 worth of IPods — using Stimulus Money…
Get gangsta (I’ve never used that word before; did I do it right?) on the GOP, but dig those funky Iranian nukes. Send borrowed stimulus money to Cupertino and China (two places with plenty already), but don’t prejudge those middle class tax hikes.
It’s Obama’s bizarro land. We’re just living in through it.
UPDATE: Also, CNN just put an alert up on my iPhone that fashion designer Alexander McQueen (who?) has died. But nada on Iran’s weapons-grade uranium. Move along, there’s nothing to see here — except these gorgeous new summer dresses.
If one channels their inner Al Capone, do they run the risk of inner STD’s?
Analysts say that middle-class taxes will need to be increased because the government can’t raise enough money from the wealthy alone to close the budget gap. “It’s just not possible to get the revenue you need only from this group,” said Joel Slemrod, director of the Office of Tax Policy Research at the University of Michigan.
Yeah, but is Slemrod a professor? Oh, wait…can you say “professor” on this site?
The school district is using the device to reward parents of children with disabilities who fill out a 10-minute online survey.
Rahm Emmanuel was not available for comment.
But are they cool iPod touchs or those crappy Nanos? I think our tax dollars would be better wasted on cool iPod Touches than frakking Nanos! I mean, seriously, who wants to look at a display smaller than a postage stamp? That display gives real meaning to the term “thumbnails”.
But I digress…
Obama “going gangsta”. ??!! Would a Harvard-educated, aloof, wealthy limousine liberal who is less comfortable in his own skin than an overweight teenaged girl know anything about “going gangsta”? I think it involves more than the Secret Service letting him hold one of their Sig Sauers in the belt of one of his power suits and drinking 40s in the Oval Office. We might need Ice-T to come to the White House to give BHO an in-service on bein’ a playa…
You might be onto something there, Ed. Obama’s less likely to go gangsta than he is to go, say, emo. And I’d pay real money — euros or renminbi, even — to see it happen.
I think Michelle could pull off ‘goin’ gangsta” far better than BHO could.
For the record, Alexander McQueen’s fashion LOOK like the apocolypse, so why not skip over the nukes?
