Where do I Sign Up: A Community Services Board member in Norfolk, Virgina didn’t show up for work for 12 years and still got salary and benefits. Now that’s change I can believe in. You have to wonder what kind of human being could live with themselves collecting money like that, but look no further than our senior citizens who are collecting much more money than they put in at the expense of future generations.
Dancing with the Stars? Obviously my definition of “stars” is different that other people, especially since I think stars are giant balls of gas that emit light and heat. Bristol Palin, who is only famous because of her mother and the fact she got knocked up, is going to be on the new season of Dancing with the Stars. For those that remember, Miss Palin accused her now former fiance Levi Johnston of being a publicity hound. Hmmm… I have a feeling that she’ll co-star in an epic film with Lindsay Lohan in the next few years.
Head in the Sand: It’s not all doom and gloom Democrats! It looks like Reid Wilson over at Hotline On Call believes the Democrats won’t lose the House. Although I’m not sure his logic is logical:
Beyond advertising, money pays for turnout operations, another area in which Democrats have a clear advantage. The Democratic National Committee has pledged $30 million in cash and services to turn out the estimated 15 million voters who cast their first ballots for President Obama in 2008, and the DCCC has put an average of five field staffers on the ground in 75 districts.
This sounds a lot like what I heard during the 2006 election. The Republicans had a lot of money and a superior turnout operation, but ultimately lost the House. The GOP was missing the most crucial thing in an election: enthusiastic voters. 1,255,470 votes were cast in the uncontested Florida GOP Senate primary. There were 912,044 voters in the contested Democratic Senate primary. That’s hardly a reassuring if you’re a member of the Democratic party or Charlie Crist. Florida is a battleground state and the Democrats are staying at home and the Republicans are fired up.
Who is Michael Enright? James Taranto over at Best of the Web has an in-depth look at the history of the supposed Islamophobe Michael Enright, around whom the press is rallying as it always does when they think they’ve finally found a real “hate crime.” Taranto’s conclusions shouldn’t be shocking for those who aren’t caught up in the sensationalist news cycle. For whatever reason, Enright’s association with the pro-mosque left isn’t making headlines. You know what else isn’t making headlines? I’ve lost count of the number of attacks on innocent civilians in the United States by Muslims; however, no one is going around trying to say all Muslims are Americanophones…. or whatever. But perpetrate a hate crime against yourself or pretend you’re a racist right-winger to prove your own leftist politically-correct psychosis and the media reports it as fact in 82-point type on the front page. Then, when the truth comes out, it’s buried on page A-75 in 2-point type, if at all.
