It just keeps getting better

Stevie Cohen


Some Lib dope – as if there were any other kind of Lib – Steve Cohen thrust a knife right through the heart of P-BO’s straight shooting comment about being civil. Cohen took careful aim before pulling the trigger and firing a shot at Republicans on the house floor comparing the Republicans’ effort to repeal P-BOcare with the Nazis. Cohen may have slit his own throat in doing so. Such over the top rhetoric designed to strangle debate is usually seen for what it is and then easily put into the crosshairs and shot full of holes.

If full repeal fails, Republicans have vowed to take a cleaver to the bill cutting and slashing the most onerous parts of the bill until the bill can be killed with a single shot to the head down the road. One of the more imaginative ways to kill off the bill is by cutting off funding and allowing the bill to starve to death.

I guess CNN will not be having Lex on to talk about Cohen or anything else. That’s ok. I have a bigger audience on Tuesday night’s Karaoke at Duty’s Bar and Grill.

HHS

In other stunning news HHS Secretary Cathleen Sibelius let America know that nearly half of Americans or 129 million have pre-existing conditions. Rush Limbaugh then broke the really bad news. 100% of us are going to die. Damnit Rush. Here I though I was going to be like Arnold Schwarzenneger in the movie the Running Man – the only one to get out alive and you ruin it.

No one knows where Cathy gets her numbers from but they must be true if it’s coming from the government, right. I mean after all it’s people’s health we’re talking about here. It’s not as if we’re talking global warming where the government was just caught in another major screw up using bogus data to support a 2.4 degree temperature change. Real scientists believe that using the government model, the current trend would need to be 10 times worse than it is to support the government findings.

Off by a factor of 10. Hey it’s just a little mistake. The good news is given that degree of government idiocy, that would make Cathy’s number about 12.9 million. The bad news is that Rush Limbaugh didn’t rely on government studies to arrive at his number. We’re all still going to die.

Heartbreaker

P-BO says if the Bears win he’s going to the Super Bowl. Damn, I was a Chicago fan. I am now forced to root for the Green Bay Packers. Who wants this pant load injecting himself into Super Bowl Sunday? Oh wait for the third year running he will. He’s doing an interview with Billbo O’Really. Should be interesting for the film crew to find an angle where they can get both of their swelled heads into the same shot.

Given P-BO’s track record of turning gold into dust, if I were Lovie Smith and the Bears, I’d be getting a team of priests into Soldier Field to perform and exorcism ASAP.
