The Griffin holds forth on current affairs

The griffin is recovering from a brief bit of discomfort and shares his thoughts on…well just about everything.

Last night some info-babes were discussing gasoline based vehicles versus sail powered, solar powered, grass powered vehicles. Of course they got to electric powered vehicles. Said the smartest of the group of idiots,” It is so easy because all you do is plug it in. Don’t people understand?” Not one of them asked where the electricity comes from. Which by the way is 49% coal in the US .

That dumbass Harry Reid said we are all getting sick by using fossil fuels. Of course he said we cannot drill our way out and we need a comprehensive energy plan. The first time I recall hearing this was 1973 when Roy Swartz bought his Vega. It has been 35 years and congress is still working on their comprehensive energy bill. The must be too busy measuring the biceps of pro baseball players. One thought I have is to eliminate every endangered animal in the US to allow us to drill in eco-sensitive habitats. Take the caribou on the north shores of Alaska . Open an unlimited hunting season, maybe a big bounty on each one shot, and shazzam. No reason to stop drilling now. Move the idea over to the spotted owl and logging in the Northwest.

I see Iran is threatening to close the straights of Hormuz if Israel decides to take a crack at destroying their nuclear development program. That is like waving a flag in front of a bull. Immediately the world goes against Iran . Another brilliant position taken by the nutjobs running Iran . Like two drunken groups of soccer fans taunting each other when one person runs out and throws a punch. Then the riot starts. Israel now has the green light for a first strike and no one remembers who won the soccer game.

I see Mac and BHO falling all over each other to take positions that they think will get them more votes. It’s like a coach-father doing the line up at the Little League game where he has 18 kids and he has to play each one at least a full inning. The parents of the best players go nuts when their kid gets pulled and the parents of the no-talent kids gets pissed because their kid plays only the last inning when the game is already determined. Everyone is pissed and the coach-father is the most unpopular person at the park. And why did he do it to begin with? To help grow our next generation of young men into responsible people. The players of course wonder to themselves why anyone would take such a thankless job. He must be a dolt.

So Mac and BHO have decided they need to go see foreign countries, foreign leaders, foreign governments, all to make them appear presidential. Don’t they know that these people they are visiting can’t vote in our election? Maybe dead people can in Chicago but not the living PM of Ubitchistan. They are wasting their time and our tax dollars.

Am I the only one sick of watching these two? Kind of like you watching girls basketball. You know that there has to be something better to watch. Like the back of your eyelids.
