Dope Smoking Dope?

Tell me he is not high, as in stoned, as in “got the munchies,” as in:
The POTUS smoked reefer before a major television interview.

UPS GOES BROWN

UPS Takes "Brown Shirts" to a New Level
Joins the "Progressive"  Thugocracy


Today UPS announced it will stop advertising on O’Reilly’s show. Here is the statement UPS emailed out just moments ago:

Thank you for sending an e-mail expressing concern about UPS advertising during the Bill O’Reilly show on FOX News. We do consider such comments as we review ad placement decisions which involve a variety of news, entertainment and sports programming. At this time, we have no plans to continue advertising during this show.

Clipped that from a "progressive" site run by the Center for American Progress, funded by (yes) George Soros, and formed by John Podesta and Hillary Clinton to wage war on, principally, Rush Limbaugh and FOX News, the two most influential media sources not "owned" by the Democrat party. Their guiding philosophy  - "Can't beat them?  Then shut 'em down."
Soros-Funded Democratic Idea Factory Becomes Obama Policy Front

By Edwin Chen

Nov. 18 (Bloomberg) -- Three blocks from the White House, on the 10th floor of a sleek glass building, young workers pound at computers, with giant flat-screen TVs overhead. It has the look and feel of a high-tech startup.

In many ways it is. The product is ideas.

Thanks in part to funding from benefactors such as billionaire George Soros, the Center for American Progress has become in just five years an intellectual wellspring for Democratic policy proposals, including many that are shaping the agenda of the new Obama administration.


They have a thug's mentality, and operate the same way.  You can read about their apparently successful effort to force UPS out of O'Reilly sponsorship here.  You can read about the Center for American Progress here. And, you can contact UPS here if you choose.



One final thing.  If you think this is another "everybody does it" political gambit, do this.  Think about the last time you read about college conservatives burning liberal campus newspapers.  When was the last time a scheduled debate was canceled because conservatives didn't like the moderator?  When was the last time a liberal broadcaster was fired for making anti-conservative comments? 

Here's one more something to think about. 

If you were in Berlin in 1934, watching Brown-Shirts beat people to death in the streets, what would you do?  What would you like to do?  What do you think should have been done?   There you go.  That's what we're dealing with.

Is there a Second Amendment? Duh.

SHAM-POW!

Sham-Wow Shlomi Slams Schlong Schtupper
 MARCH 27--Meet Vince Shlomi. He's probably better known to you as the ShamWow Guy, the ubiquitous television pitchman who has been phenomenally successful peddling absorbent towels and food choppers. Shlomi, 44, was arrested last month on a felony battery charge following a violent confrontation with a prostitute in his South Beach hotel room. According to an arrest affidavit, Shlomi met Sasha Harris, 26, at a Miami Beach nightclub on February 7 and subsequently retired with her to his $750 room at the lavish Setai hotel. Shlomi told cops he paid Harris about $1000 in cash after she "propositioned him for straight sex." Shlomi said that when he kissed Harris, she suddenly "bit his tongue and would not let go." Shlomi then punched Harris several times until she released his tongue.

From Naked Capitalism

I voted for Obama, but with my eyes open. He had no prior executive experience, nor any significant legislative accomplishments. As a senator, he was a newcomer to Washington who spent most of his time out of town campaigning for some other office. Which means he knew no one there.

It was not hard to anticipate the result: The new President was easily captured by Washington insiders & quickly reduced to mindless pandering. I've seen a lot of that the last week. High-flown oratory is no substitute for effective executive management. They are, in fact, completely unrelated. So instead of actually governing, our new Emperor is instead out campaigning. Trying to persuade us he is wearing fine new clothes. Increasingly, we suspect otherwise.
