Stupidest administration EVER

This level of sheer stupidity is unbelievable:

White House apologizes for NYC flyover
President Obama's White House was forced to issue an apology Monday after a photo opportunity gone badly wrong — an Air Force 747 plane did a low flyover over Lower Manhattan, prompting terrified citizens to flee from their offices and high-profile accusations of government insensitivity in the post 9/11 era.

White House Military Office Director Louis Caldera issued a brief statement saying he was too blame.

"Last week, I approved a mission over New York. I take responsibility for that decision," he said. "While federal authorities took the proper steps to notify state and local authorities in New York and New Jersey, its clear that the mission created confusion and disruption. I apologize and take responsibility for any distress that flight caused."

The panic started Monday morning when a backup 747 known as Air Force One when the president is aboard flew by Lower Manhattan with a U.S. fighter jet closely following, rattling windows and causing some limited evacuations.

Over the course of a half-hour starting at 10 a.m, the plane flew low over the city and near the Statue of Liberty.

The late afternoon statement came as New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg — an Obama ally so far — said he was outraged.

The buck cannot possibly stop with Caldera. It was Obama's plane and I've little doubt that he himself had to have final approval for this stupid, stupid, stupid stunt. You just don't do stuff like this with the president's plane without the president's approval.

Here's video of the panicked reaction of New Yorkers:



Thanks so much, B.O.

Perez Hilton just proved my law

In punishing and severely, vulgarly chastising Miss California Carrie Prejean, Perez Hilton became yet another example of the truth behind my law. He has promoted himself as a paragon of tolerance and open-mindedness, but his reaction to Prejean's well-stated answer proves just how intolerant and close-minded he is. He cannot tolerate or be open-minded about anyone with an opinion about gay marriage that is different from his own. Meanwhile, Ms. Prejean demonstrated true tolerance and open-mindedness.

"Open and honest" Obama Administration deletes pro-interrogation material from Blair memo

These clowns get scuzzier every day. And this information is from the left-leaning New York Times no less!

Banned Techniques Yielded ‘High Value Information,’ Memo Says

Admiral Blair’s assessment that the interrogation methods did produce important information was deleted from a condensed version of his memo released to the media last Thursday. Also deleted was a line in which he empathized with his predecessors who originally approved some of the harsh tactics after the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001.

Apparently according to Obama's Newspeak, "open" means "dissembling" and "honest" means "dishonest." Do liberals honestly never see this garbage or do they just willfully turn a blind eye to it?

Another left-wing lie blown out of the water... well, ice...

Antarctic ice is growing, not melting away
ICE is expanding in much of Antarctica, contrary to the widespread public belief that global warming is melting the continental ice cap.

The results of ice-core drilling and sea ice monitoring indicate there is no large-scale melting of ice over most of Antarctica, although experts are concerned at ice losses on the continent's western coast.

Antarctica has 90 per cent of the Earth's ice and 80 per cent of its fresh water, The Australian reports. Extensive melting of Antarctic ice sheets would be required to raise sea levels substantially, and ice is melting in parts of west Antarctica. The destabilisation of the Wilkins ice shelf generated international headlines this month.

However, the picture is very different in east Antarctica, which includes the territory claimed by Australia.

East Antarctica is four times the size of west Antarctica and parts of it are cooling. The Scientific Committee on Antarctic Research report prepared for last week's meeting of Antarctic Treaty nations in Washington noted the South Pole had shown "significant cooling in recent decades".

Oops.

Now, who will be the first liberal reading this to admit that they were wrong? I don't expect anyone will. And it's a given that Al Gore won't, either. These people work off dogma, not science.

When crybaby MSM reporters attack

Gee, where was she when left-wing protesters were calling President Bush a fascist? Where were any MSM reporters? Nowhere, of course, because they agreed with it.

Good on the protesters for holding their own, shutting her down and reducing her to babbling incoherence about Fox News.

Jinx's law

A while back, I created a law. It states:

"The more people proclaim themselves to be something, they less likely they actually will be it."

This can be modified to fit specific situations. To wit:

"The more tolerant people proclaim themselves to be, the less tolerant they actually are of people different from themselves."

"The more rational people proclaim themselves to be, the more irrational they actually are."

"The more open-minded people proclaim themselves to be, the more closed-minded they actually are."

"The more dedicated to freedom of speech people proclaim themselves to be, the more they are prone to try to censor free speech."

And yes, it can apply to people who proclaim themselves to be such great Christians. How many self-proclaimed great Christians have we seen in the last few years who have fallen from their self-built perches? A few specific examples come to mind.

The lesson here is this: If you want to be something, just be it. Quietly. Humbly. Other people will recognize it without you having to point it out. The moment you start bellowing "Look at me! Look how ________ I am!" is the moment you open yourself up to being exactly the opposite of what you claim to be.

Here's a recent and prime example of my law in action:

YouTube community tells kid to kill himself
A self-described Christian 12-year-old boy who dared post his views on same-sex marriage on the popular Internet video site, YouTube, has since been ridiculed and insulted by tens of thousands of comments that attack the boy, his sexuality and his faith.

"Kill Christianity, and then kill yourself," responded a YouTube community member identified as greenacidfusion.

A commenter calling himself WizzyBoy 520 added, "How do you know the Bible isn't full of lies? You, just like everyone who is against gay marriage, is a mentally retarded bigot. No exceptions. Now go to h---."

Thousands of others have simply slammed the boy by calling him a "homo" or making comments like the one from chao129: "You are against gay marriage because you are a fag in denial."

Yep. That's undoubtedly "tolerant" people viciously attacking a 12-year-old boy. Just think of the outrage we all know would come from the very same people if this boy was being attacked like this for supporting gay marriage.

Liberal insanity again rears its ugly head

Now President B.O. wants to "fix" the economy by promoting the very thing that got us into this mess in the first place!

Obama urges Americans to refinance homes
President Obama used his bully pulpit Thursday to encourage Americans to refinance their homes, which could stimulate consumer spending and pump up the economy.

Obama trumpeted programs that have helped drive mortgage rates to their lowest levels in decades, and encouraged home owners to refinance to put more money in their pockets. He also hawked an administration website meant to encourage Americans to refinance their homes.

“So the main message that we want to send today is, there are 7 to 9 million people across the country who right now could be taking advantage of lower mortgage rates,” Obama said in remarks released by the White House. “That is money in their pocket. And we estimate that the average family can get anywhere from $1,600 to $2,000 a year in savings by taking advantage of these various mortgage programs that have been put in place.”

"Insanity" is the only [polite] word I can think of to describe this. These people simply cannot be that stupid or ignorant. They HAVE to know that the tanking economy was caused when the housing bubble burst. Yet here they are promoting a brand new housing bubble mere months later. God help us.

Obama Bows to Saudi King

An anonymous spin doctoring apologist aide has claimed, "It wasn't a bow. He grasped his hand with two hands, and he's taller than King Abdullah."

However, Obama's left hand can clearly be seen hanging at his side until AFTER the bow. Additionally, Obama also recently met with Queen Elizabeth, who is much, MUCH shorter than King Abdullah. Guess what. No deep bow.

No, my friends. This was not about height, nor was it a mistake in protocol. Obama knew exactly what he was doing. He was showing deference - possibly even fealty - to a Muslim leader.



UPDATE: In the comments, Jordan made a fantastic statement. Here it is with emphasis added to the best part:
I consider myself fortunate to have been born in a republic. I appreciate that as a citizen of a republic, I need not bow to any man or woman. We are all created equal, and blood lines do not make one person superior. This gesture by Obama should rankle every citizen for when Obama bowed as President of the United States, we all bowed.

Did you just hear that?

That was the sound of my hand slapping against my forehead upon reading this:

Obama looks at climate engineering
WASHINGTON (AP) - The president's new science adviser said Wednesday that global warming is so dire, the Obama administration is discussing radical technologies to cool Earth's air.

John Holdren told The Associated Press in his first interview since being confirmed last month that the idea of geoengineering the climate is being discussed. One such extreme option includes shooting pollution particles into the upper atmosphere to reflect the sun's rays. Holdren said such an experimental measure would only be used as a last resort.

America's Chicken Littles...



...have come home...



...to roost-ah!



And notice that they are not even using the nonsense term "climate change" anymore. They've gone back to what they've always meant: "global warming."
