I’m paraphrasing here, but the gist is the same:  RUMOR: Bob Costas to argue at future Cowboys/Redskins games that any takeaway by the Cowboys is illegitimate and that ball needs be returned to its rightful owners. This of course was a joke.  Whereas this?  This isn’t. Which makes it a punchline all its own. (h/t Darleen, who asks if there is anything more humorless than a leftist?  And the answer

You see, it’s all about avoiding segregation, this fight against vouchers.  And it doesn’t matter whether minorities are trapped in failing schools:  what matters are the Crayola optics.  And maintaining the illusion of systemic racism. It’s enough to make me spit. These people — who lay claim to being “progressive” — care nothing about children, or even education per se.   They care about teacher’s unions and maintaining control over their

Which, shouldn’t that be good enough for these yokel dumbfucks? Gov. John Hickenlooper on Wednesday vowed to listen more to the concerns of Weld County and other northern communities, but his attempt to offer an olive branch of sorts fell on a great deal of scorched earth. During a town-hall-style meeting with about 30 local and elected officials at the University of Northern Colorado, Hickenlooper said he would visit the

To schedule a death panel appointment, please remain on the line.  Who knows?  Maybe you’ll die in the mean time!

Only, I guess they wanted to shut down the government first, hassle some vets, close some parks, then let timid GOP establishment types run from the fight, disavow those “wacko birds” in their ranks who led it, and position themselves politically not as the Party that saved some Americans — at least temporarily — from the debacle that ObamaCare has already shown itself to be.  This, we were told, was

me:  “Hi.   You may not remember me, but I called the other day to try to get some information about the exchanges –” 800 number:  “– that wasn’t me.” me:  “Well, I understand you probably don’t remember — I mean, volumes have been high, and all the glitches have probably made your job very difficult — but I did call –” 800 number:  “– ‘glitches‘?  Sir, I’ll have you know

This is the kind of thing one has come to expect out of Hobbits ruthlessly using their nefarious powers to hold the President and the American people hostage, threatening them with extremist defaults, anarchical government shutdowns (which were clearly a cause for major concern, and a pressing issue in the lives of nearly every citizen), and the suicide bomb vests of political jihadis willing to let the country burn just

Sort of reminds you of the old joke, “why did the man climb the mountain” — although the traditional punchline, “because he can,” gets replaced here by the more subtle “because He can.” Time to admit what we all know to be the case:   If you are going to try to restrict religious liberty by decree, and then use the instrumentalities of your police state to enforce that theft of

A:  Um, when people maybe die because of it? CNS News, “‘You Call This a Glitch!?!’ – ‘Robocop’ or Healthcare.gov?”: Many in the media insist on dismissing the problems with the Healthcare.gov website as mere “glitches.” The term seems to trivialize the amount and severity of problems the Obamacare website is having. Software engineers have told CBS News the website is simply poorly designed. “How do you tax people and

But don’t get too excited:  eventually John Roberts will rule that Executive discretion allows Obama to pick and choose who gets penalized — er, I mean “taxed” — for failing to sign up for exchanges that aren’t functional, by way of a portal that isn’t workable, that require a health insurance mandate for patients that doctors refuse to see.  Also, the judge has refused to issue an injunction, meaning naturally
