If I Ran the Fed..
I doubt that anything will come of Ron Paul’s ceaseless attempts to bring transparency to the Fed. But it does bring to mind the question: what would happen if it were revealed that the Fed was invested in foreign debt? Would anyone care? Would everyone care?

Nancy Pelosi Gets Angry, Calls Pro-Life Democrats Liars while she lies
Speaker Pelosi is not telling the truth. The Hyde amendment--the "law of the land" banning federal funding for abortion in other programs--was left out of the Senate health care bill.

Is Ann Coulter the Greivis Vasquez of media?
Or is Vazquez teh Ann Coulter of college hoops?

This is so true!

Dear RKOF
 
“ I like your site because you seem to always look on the sunny side of things.  It seems this week that everything I see and read indicates that our government leaders, and especially Obama, are not just derelict, but criminally so, in just about everything they do.  Please give me something to perk me up.  I know that no Administration can be as bad as this one appears to be. (PS I hit your tip-jar with $500). I think I love you.

Hi  Pat,

I'm pretty pressed for time, but this story looks like it should be upbeat. 

Thanks for your support,

Commentary on the Culture
 
Nobody here would call me a prude. Right? I just came across this picture , which reminded me of the jaw dropper Daily Show segment on the right (Feb 2).  I think it's unfortunate that the culture has reached this point (both venues attract children), but will titillate you with them anyway. So, we can say that ..
  1. I am not a prude
  2. I am not a Libertine. 
  3. I want my cake and eat it too. 
  4. I am culturally in tune, or a hep cat in the modern vernacular.

OUT COME THE WHITE JACKETS

I was so wound up last night after watching hoops that I couldn't sleep.  So what did I do?  I looked at Drudge.
“ Obama names brother of undecided House Dem to Appeals Court...
'Whatever it takes to get healthcare done,' said Press Secretary Robert Gibbs...
PUSH. PUSH HARDER. PUSH FASTER.

I spent an hour doing the Barack Blofeld  PS (previous post), and was able to sleep some.    I hate now to risk my reputation for extreme political gravitas by quoting Eric Cartman, but - must. get. this out. of my. head.

I hate this man. I hate him so very, very much.

Terps Beat Dook

Candy, beer and soda

Stuff

Boned Jello

There is of course this Drudge alert, about the hidden mandatory add-on "health" charge added to restaurant bills in San Francisco (and spreading).  Today I noticed that 24 pack cubes of Coke and Pepsi product are now 20 pack cubes.  At the same price.  At least they abstained from blurbing  "New Easier to Lift"  on the packages.  Not unexpected in these times though.  Nothing is.

The reality of the hidden price increase gambit  hit me as a youngster.  The Three Musketeer candy bar we bought for a nickel, that I remember as being the size if a truck driver's wallet, and scored to break into three regular sized bars, suddenly wasn't.  Big. We went  into the candy store after school one day,  and there it was, all small, but still costing a nickel.  We complained to the candy store guy, who was as far as we were concerned responsible.  He, the original "Soup Nazi," told us to get the hell out of his store if we weren't buying anything.  Never had a Three Musketeer again, because I didn't really like them.  Only bought them because I was brainwashed.

What struck me about this Coke and Pepsi gambit, however, is  that both companies independently thought to do this at the same time.  How serendipitous.

Retro Alice

Alice in Wonderland in 12 Minutes
 Evidently a lot of parents will be taking their tots to see the new version, unaware of it's very dark nature, so I found this thrilling substitute.  Of course some parents are beyond help.


From the British Film Institute Archive comes this first-ever film adaptation of Lewis Carroll’s book.

Made just 37 years after Lewis Carroll wrote his novel and eight years after the birth of cinema, the adaptation was directed by Cecil Hepworth and Percy Stow, and was based on Sir John Tenniel’s original illustrations…  With a running time of just 12 minutes (8 of which survive), Alice in Wonderland was the longest film produced in England at that time. Film archivists have been able to restore the film’s original colours for the first time in over 100 years.

“ An Open Letter To SF Muni
Fuck you.

Let me start over.

Fuck you.

You are the public transportation system. Say that out loud. You are, supposedly, the way I should transport myself. You know, to places like “everywhere” and “anywhere”. So let me just say I’m a little bit confused. (H/T Marc Miller)

Bunning's Best Pitch
(He gave up his filibuster in the wee hours, but )  ... Call him crazy, but the senator is revealing the hypocrisy of Congress' pay-as-you-go promises. It seems there's always an "emergency" to justify adding another $10 billion or so in red ink.

It is time for Kay Bailey Hutchinson to resign and make way for Senator Michael Williams.
Kay Bailey Hutchinson re-enacted the Martha Coakley campaign, with all of the entitlement and arrogance.  She, thus, overwhelmingly lost the Republican primary to Governor Rick Perry tonight.

Patent Reform Is a Patent Giveaway
Now that communist China has become America's banker, China is flexing its muscles in a new way that threatens our economy and our jobs. The buzzword is "indigenous innovation."

China has promulgated new anti-American trade rules that prohibit imports of our products unless they are based on intellectual property that is developed and/or owned in China, and associated trademarks are originally registered in China.  Enter lick-spittle Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Patrick Leahy, D-Vt.
