Organizational & Structural Ambiguities, Back Spasms & Email To Blame [Dan Collins]

for Scare Force One incident: Donald Douglas following up on Jeff’s post from last night. Still unclear from latest underbus upskirt incident is who requested the permission for the flyover. But the guy’s resigned, so be satisfied, right? Meanwhile, Alan Keyes and others arrested for marching at Notre Dame to protest Obama as commencement speaker. Lefties to denounce him for trying to shake down Catholics for more babies in 5,

Under the bus

Why, it’s almost as if one could find a theme emerging with this President…

“The Obama Lexicon”

It’s like reading Animal Farm, except all the cute farm animals have been replaced by oily, Viagra-engorged middle-aged power brokers in Yuppie suits who invariably mutter the bankrupt leftist platitudes they’ve filtered through Alinsky.

“Secret U.S.-Israel nuclear accord in jeopardy”

More Obama magic. Exclusive to the Washington Times: President Obama’s efforts to curb the spread of nuclear weapons threaten to expose and derail a 40-year-old secret U.S. agreement to shield Israel’s nuclear weapons from international scrutiny, former and current U.S. and Israeli officials and nuclear specialists say.

On free speech

And those who wish to subvert it in the name of “tolerance”: Sec. 881.

Epiphany?

Donald Douglas: “The truth is that leftists don’t care about the advancement of minorities, they care about the advancement of their own power.” In related news, dwarves tend to be on the short side. And their legs and arms look kinda stubby. Seriously. I can cite studies.

Pelosi lied, people, uh, got wet.

Surprise! Okay. Not really a surprise. But, well, you know. **** update: Moe Lane chimes in. **** update 2: Pelosi doubles down: “Of the 40 CIA briefings to Congress reported recently in the press, I was only briefed once, on Sept. 4, 2002, as I have previously stated. “As I said in my statement of December 9, 2007: “‘I was briefed on interrogation techniques the administration was considering using in

Republican Policies To Blame for Munchkins’ Demise [Dan Collins]
