It’s Not Debatable

I wasn’t expecting much Tuesday night. I knew President Barack Obama would be declared a winner by the effete elite if he managed to show up and not vomit on himself. Both candidates behaved like slightly less-creepy versions of Joe Biden from last week; although Obama appears to have missed a few days of rehearsal.

The Benghazi Shuffle

Asked by debate moderator Martha Raddatz to explain the double- and even triple-talk about the circumstances surrounding the murders in Benghazi, Libya, Vice President Joe Biden didn’t even blink as he proclaimed himself and Barack Obama merely misinformed bystanders.

Obama’s Benghazi Beat Down

Steph and Debbie take two for the team. Another weird (and racist) moment in the Democrats’ War on Women. And Crazy Joe sweats to the oldies! All this, plus, “lady parts!” Presented in 1080 hi-def, for FREE! It’s The Great Eight, from the Personal Liberty Digest™!

Big Bird Probably Tastes Like Chicken

Mitt Romney never said he wants to kill, maim, fricassee or deep-fat fry Big Bird. In fact, quite the opposite is true. But the Democratic panic over Romney’s nefarious plans for the “Sesame Street” gang is about winning an election, not telling the truth.

Debating Reality

As you read my musings today, keep in mind my deadline was Wednesday morning. So, I’ll guess instead. After all, if I’m miles off the mark, I can just do what Obama does and claim my perspective has “evolved.”

The Best Available

Barack Obama is going to be the first President since Herbert Hoover to lose an election via what amounts to a nullification vote. Millions of Americans who lack confidence in Romney will vote for him anyway, simply because he isn’t Obama.

Stick to the Script, Obama!

It’s all the same to Obama. Hillary: the right man for the job. And: look who’s back! All this, plus, George Costanza to the rescue! Presented in 1080 hi-def, FOR FREE! It’s The Great Eight, from the Personal Liberty Digest™!

Hard For Him To Say He’s Sorry

Earlier this week, President Barack Obama dropped by the set of Barbara Walters’ henhouse cluckfest “The View.” During his sit-down with the gals, Obama once again blamed the catastrophic violence overtaking the Mideast on the so-called “movie” “Innocence of Muslims.”
