This is just too good not to share. Check out this guy's face.
A knife-wielding burglar had a shock when he attacked a pensioner in his home - and discovered his victim was a retired boxer.
Senior citizen Frank Corti, 72, a former junior boxing champion is still a bit handy with his dukes.
And when he spotted the aforementioned intruder, Gregory McCalium, in his hallway he sprang into action and delivered two right hooks.
Al Sharpton was caught bumping and grinding at a Michael Jackson celebration at the Apollo. Keep it classy with that broke down jerry curl.
And a Stones T-shirt at a MJ celebration?
Shades of State of Shock.
This makes no sense. Why would they kill Michael and let Tito live?
This video was recorded on FRIDAY PRAYERS the day after Michael Jackson died. Ayatollah Khamenei presents his "piercing intelligence" against the great Satan.
Iran must have some really good weed.
I think these guys are sending a message to the Gitmo detainees. "It's on...Y'all got served".
Some of the more curious points of the Bill that will sink American families:
* Funding for Youth Corps to monitor and enforce following Carbon policies
* 308 pages added at 3:08 AM - no one was able to read it
* Bulldozing neighborhoods and giving them to FEMA
* Will collapse the Dollar completely
* It's about "world citizenship"
* You have to pay the "Mafia" to breathe - from mowing the grass to watering your Lawn and more
* As an Elite, Al Gore's part was to promote Global Warming as a big danger for several months prior to the bill's introduction
* Will shut-down everything but select industries (can choose what to close)
* Soros and other billionaires will benefit tremendously as they own most of the "Green Energy" companies
* Literally everything can be "deemed carbon-based" from breathing to light bulbs to nearly everything in your home and business
* No one was allowed to read until 30 minutes before the vote
* Power will be enforced by UN, World Bank and NATO
* Excuse to evict people from homes considered not up to new standards (which would be bulldozed)
* Small businesses will be wiped out due to these new provisions
That's Obama in his own words. It's like Mein Kampf all over again. He's told you his intentions, yet people still support him. Watch the video here.
He was a freak. But he was our freak. And theirs too, apparently.

I thought Obama was going to make it all better. What happened?
Tens of thousands of North Koreans shouted slogans to denounce international sanctions at a rally in central Pyongyang on Thursday, as the communist country vowed to enlarge its atomic arsenal and warned of a "fire shower of nuclear retaliation" in the event of a U.S. attack.
In Pyongyang, an estimated 100,000 packed the main square, shouting "Let's smash!" in unison while punching clenched fists in the air, footage from APTN in North Korea showed. A placard showed hands crushing a missile with "U.S." written on it.
State-run newspapers ran lengthy editorials accusing the U.S. of invading the country in 1950 and of looking for an opportunity to attack again. The editorials said those actions justified North Korea's development of atomic bombs to defend itself.
President Obama will travel to St. Louis on July 14 to throw out the first pitch at the Major League Baseball's All-Star Game, the White House has announced. I can't wait to ridicule this guy without mercy. Because I know that know matter what, when Obama throws that pitch, he's going to look like a nancy-boy Liberace. I just know it. I've seen his athletic feats before.
Doesn't this sound like a Pelosi bill?
The family, clad in black, stood at the curb of the road sobbing. A middle-aged mother slapped her cheeks, letting out piercing wails. The father, a frail man who worked as a doorman at a clinic in central Tehran, wept quietly with his head bowed.
Minutes before, an ambulance had arrived from Tehran's morgue carrying the body of their only son, 19-year-old Kaveh Alipour.
On Saturday, amid the most violent clashes between security forces and protesters, Mr. Alipour was shot in the head as he stood at an intersection in downtown Tehran. He was returning from acting class and a week shy of becoming a groom, his family said.
Upon learning of his son's death, the elder Mr. Alipour was told the family had to pay an equivalent of $3,000 as a "bullet fee"—a fee for the bullet used by security forces—before taking the body back, relatives said.
Last round has been called on a Hollywood legend. RIP to the ultimate sidekick.
Here's Howard Stern with a hilarious chop up of an audio book of his. I bet he approved.
This, of course, assumes men aren't using this ringtone. The man-friendly ringtone come later.
This will give you some idea just how bad our electoral process has become. Thanks to "community organizers" like ACORN.
In 50 Iranian cities the number of votes cast in this month presidential election exceeded the number of eligible voters, the state's election watchdog admitted today.You may recall, there were several incidents of counties and cities in America registering more people to vote than actually lived in the area themselves.
Abbasali Kadkhodai, a spokesman for the council of senior clerics, told the state television channel IRIB: "Our investigation shows that the number of districts they announced is not correct. Based on our preliminary report, 50 districts face this issue."
Obama is spineless. It took him days to come out with a measured response to what anyone who knows the difference between right and wrong would have spoken out against immediately. The Iranian people have noticed. This letter from the office of Iranian opposition leader Hossein Mousavi:
From the Office of Mr. Mir Hossein Mousavi
To the President of the USA, Mr. Barack Hussein Obama:
Dear Mr. President,
In the name of the Iranian people, we want you to know that when you recently made the statement "Achmadinejad or Mousavi? Two of a kind,” we consider this as a grave and deep insult, not just to Mr. Mousavi but especially against the judgment of the Iranian people, against our moral conviction and intelligence, especially those of the young generation that comprises a population of 31 million.
It is a specially grave insult for those who are now fighting for democracy and freedom, and an unwarranted gift and even praise for Mr. Khamenei, whose security forces are now killing peaceful Iranians in the streets of every major city in the country.
Your statement misled the people of the world. It was no doubt inspired by your hope for dialogue with this regime, but you cannot possibly believe in promises from a regime that lies to its own people and then kills them when they demand the promises be kept.
By such statements, your administration and you discourage the Iranian people, who believe and trust in the values of democracy and freedom. We are pleased to see that you have condemned the regime’s murderous violence, and we look forward to stronger support for the rightful struggle of the Iranian people against the actions of a regime that is your enemy as well as ours.
Earlier today we posted a video of a woman who had been shot dead by Iranian hardliners (see video here). Here's another video. Warning. Graphic.
These videos are being uploaded on Youtube by Iranian dissidents at great risk. They ask only that we spread the word and show the world what's going on. So please do so by passing this story on to a friend.

What's the leader of the free world doing while these freedom seeking people of Iran are dying? Obama? He's out with the kids getting frozen custard. No. Really! And I know there are many who found this blog who care more about what flavor custard Obama had. It was vanilla. The Washington Post has all the historic details of Obama's ice cream trip.
President Obama and his girls motorcaded over to Alexandria from the White House this afternoon. Malia had a waffle cone of vanilla custard and Sasha had her vanilla custard in a cup. The president enjoyed a cup of vanilla custard with hot fudge and toasted almonds, a pool reporter was told by the shopkeeper. The three were in the shop for about 15 minutes, where they sat at a table to enjoy their snacks.
As they left, the trio received applause from the staff and customers inside and a small crowd outside. Carrying a bag of frozen "puppy pops" for the First Dog, Bo, Obama waved to the crowd before stepping into his SUV for the short jaunt back to the White House.
I love the Obama signal when flashed in the sky.
Warning. This is very graphic.
Meanwhile...Obama Cuts funding for Pro-Democracy Movement in Iran. The man is defending his radical Muslim faith.
Newsmax has learned that the Obama administration also has zeroed out funding for pro-democracy programs inside Iran from the State Department budget for fiscal 2010, just as protests in Iran are ramping up.
Funding for pro-democracy programs began in 2004, when Congress earmarked $1.5 million of the State Department budget for “educational, humanitarian, and non-governmental organizations and individuals inside Iran to support the advancement of democracy and human rights in Iran.”
Video from Persian BBC.
This video was smuggled out of Tehran, Iran. It was posted on Youtube with no description. I guess they didn't have time.
This is a desperate attempt by Obama to continue his appeal to the video game generation.
Hey, kids, don't try this at home. Professional skateboarder Tony Hawk on Friday took a brief ride at the White House as part of a Father's Day celebration.
Hawk, 41, skated in the grand foyer and the nearby Old Executive Office Building, with the permission of White House officials.
The skateboarding icon, also known for his popular brand of skateboarding video games, posted photos to his Web site and Twitter page.
One photo shows Hawk on his skateboard with his hands in the air in what appears to be a hallway.
Remember when Obama said during the campaign..."and when I'm president, I will go line by line to make sure that we are not spending money unwisely."? He LIED!
Details of the Obama stimulus package include:
#$246 million tax break for Hollywood movie producers to buy motion picture film.And folks, that's just the details we know about. Many other projects are revealed every day and proven to be nothing but earmarks and pet projects.
• $650 million for the digital television converter box coupon program.
• $88 million for the Coast Guard to design a new polar icebreaker (arctic ship).
• $600 million to buy hybrid vehicles for federal employees.
• $150 million for Smithsonian museum facilities.
• $75 million for “smoking cessation activities.”
• $200 million for public computer centers at community colleges.
• $25 million for tribal alcohol and substance abuse reduction.
• $500 million for flood reduction projects on the Mississippi River.
• $10 million to inspect canals in urban areas.
• $6 billion to turn federal buildings into “green” buildings.
• $650 million for wildland fire management on forest service lands.
• $1.2 billion for “youth activities,” including youth summer job programs.
• $500 million for building and repairing National Institutes of Health facilities in Bethesda, Maryland.
• $160 million for “paid volunteers” at the Corporation for National and Community Service.
• $5.5 million for “energy efficiency initiatives” at the Department of Veterans Affairs National Cemetery Administration.
• $850 million for Amtrak.
• $100 million for reducing the hazard of lead-based paint.
• $110 million to the Farm Service Agency to upgrade computer systems.
• $200 million in funding for the lease of alternative energy vehicles for use on military installations.
Sen. Coburn’s report included 100 examples of “stimulus” waste, including:Yes America. Obama looked you right in the eye and lied to you.
* $3 million for a turtle crossing in northern Florida.
* $16 million on scarcely used rural bridges in Wisconsin.
* $840,000 for a bridge in Stevens Point, Wisconsin that carries 260 vehicles a day.
* $9.4 million to renovate a train station that has sat vacant for more than 30 years.
* $2.2 million to install skylights in Montana’s state-run liquor warehouse.
* $1 million dollars for an empty airport in Democratic Rep. John Murtha’s district.
* Money to study the impact wind farms have on the sage grouse population in Oregon.
* Social Security checks that have been mailed to thousands of dead people.
And it wouldn’t be a government project without signs taking credit for spending your money: “Road signs costing $300 each, [are] being placed at construction sites to alert motorists that the project is being paid for by the stimulus money,” the Associated Press reported.
But never y'all mind. Just keep staring at the spinning disc. You are getting sleepy.
David Scheiner, an internist based in the Chicago neighborhood of Hyde Park, has a diverse practice of lower-income adults from the nearby housing projects mixed with famous patients like U.S. Sen. Carol Mosely Braun, the late writer Studs Terkel and, most notably, President Barack Obama.
Scheiner, 71, was Obama's doctor from 1987 until he entered the White House; he vouched for the then-candidate's "excellent health" in a letter last year. He's still an enthusiastic Obama supporter, but he worries about whether the health care legislation currently making its way through Congress will actually do any good, particularly for doctors like himself who practice general medicine. "I'm not sure he really understands what we face in primary care," Scheiner says.
Scheiner takes a few other shots too. Looking at Obama's team of health advisors, Scheiner doesn't see anyone who's actually in the trenches. "I have a suspicion they pick people from the top echelon of medicine, people who write about it but haven't been struggling in it," he says.
Scheiner is critical of Obama's pick for Health and Human Services secretary--Kansas Gov. Kathleen Sebelius, who used to work as the chief lobbyist for her state's trial lawyers association.
"He doesn't see all the pain, it's so tragic out here," he says. "Obama's wonderful, but on this one I'm not sure if he's getting the right input."
Seems like a reasonable dress code to me. I'm a little worried, however, that these people have to be told. I bet they voted for hope and change.
A Florida city is cleaning up with a new dress code that requires city workers to wear underwear and use deodorant.
It also prohibits exposed underwear, clothing with foul language, "sexually provocative" clothes and piercings anywhere except the ears.

North Korea is planning to fire a nuclear missile at Hawaii on Independence Day.
North Korea may launch a long-range ballistic missile towards Hawaii on American Independence Day, according to Japanese intelligence officials.What would I do? I would completely obliterate North Korea. And I would do it now. To hell with pin point attacks and worrying about collateral damage. I would show the world that despite what they may think, our military is far superior to any other on earth. That's a fact. And I would make it clear that fuckwad dictators making threats against America and its allies will not be tolerated any longer. It's time to get nuts. My reaction is best summed up by this song.
The missile, believed to be a Taepodong-2 with a range of up to 4,000 miles, would be launched in early July from the Dongchang-ni site on the north-western coast of the secretive country.
Intelligence analysts do not believe the device would be capable of hitting Hawaii's main islands, which are 4,500 miles from North Korea.
Details of the launch came from the Japan's best-selling newspaper, Yomiuri Shimbun.
Both Japanese intelligence and U.S. reconnaissance satellites have collated information pointing to the launch, according to the report.
Politically I thinks this is bad news for the Republicans. This does nothing but allow Obama to play the blame Bush card again. The only thing he's good at.
Former President George W. Bush fired a salvo at President Obama on Wednesday, asserting his administration's interrogation policies were within the law, declaring the private sector not government will fix the economy and rejecting the nationalization of health care.
"I know it's going to be the private sector that leads this country out of the current economic times we're in," the former president said to applause from members of a local business group. "You can spend your money better than the government can spend your money."
Repeatedly in his hourlong speech and question-and-answer session, Mr. Bush said he would not directly criticize the new president, who has moved to take over financial institutions and several large corporations. Several times, however, he took direct aim at Obama policies as he defended his own during eight years in office.
"Government does not create wealth. The major role for the government is to create an environment where people take risks to expand the job rate in the United States," he said to huge cheers.
"I told you I'm not going to criticize my successor," he said. "I'll just tell you that there are people at Gitmo that will kill American people at a drop of a hat and I don't believe that persuasion isn't going to work. Therapy isn't going to cause terrorists to change their mind."
The gestapo will stop at nothing. Crushing all in its path. The man seems perfectly lucid to me. Stop the age discrimination.
As background, you will recall, Walpin was fired from his post as Inspector General of Americorps for reporting corruption.
Flies tend to hover around bullshit. The fly's name was "American Dream".
Of course he's lying. That's what the man does.
Gerald Walpin, who until last week was the inspector general for the Corporation for National and Community Service, tells FOXNews.com that part of President Obama's explanation for firing him was a "total lie" and that he feels he's got a target on his back for political reasons.
The government watchdog President Obama canned for allegedly being "confused" and "disoriented" fired back sharply Wednesday, saying the White House explanation for removing him was "insufficient," "baseless" and "absolutely wild."
"I am now the target of the most powerful man in this country, with an army of aides whose major responsibility today seems to be to attack me and get rid of me," Walpin said.
Facing bipartisan criticism for the firing, Obama sought to allay congressional concerns with a letter to Senate leaders Tuesday evening explaining his decision. In the letter, White House Special Counsel Norman Eisen wrote that Walpin was "confused" and "disoriented" at a May board meeting, was "unduly disruptive," and exhibited a "lack of candor" in providing information to decision makers.
"That's a total lie," Walpin said of the latter charge. And he said the accusation that he was dazed and confused at one meeting out of many was not only false, but poor rationale for his ouster.
"It appears to suggest that I was removed because I was disabled -- based on one occasion out of hundreds," he said.
"I would never say President Obama doesn't have the capacity to continue to serve because of his (statement) that there are 56 states," Walpin said, adding that the same holds for Vice President Biden and his "many express confusions that have been highlighted by the media." Obama mistakenly said once on the campaign trail that he had traveled to 57 states.
You may see pictures like this in America very soon.

If you're white, and had intentions of intending the Naval Academy, your future just got harder.
The Chief of Naval Operations Adm. Gary Roughead announced in Annapolis recently that "diversity is the number one priority" at the Naval Academy.
The Naval Academy superintendent, Vice Adm. Jeffrey Fowler, echoed him. Everyone understands that "diversity" here means nonwhite skins.
Midshipmen are admitted by two tracks. White applicants out of high school who are not also athletic recruits typically need grades of A and B and minimum SAT scores of 600 on each part for the Board to vote them "qualified." Athletics and leadership also count.
A vote of "qualified" for a white applicant doesn't mean s/he's coming, only that he or she can compete to win the "slate" of up to 10 nominations that (most typically) a Congress(wo)man draws up. That means that nine "qualified" white applicants are rejected. SAT scores below 600 or C grades almost always produce a vote of "not qualified" for white applicants.
Not so for an applicant who self-identifies as one of the minorities who are our "number one priority." For them, another set of rules apply. Their cases are briefed separately to the board, and SAT scores to the mid-500s with quite a few Cs in classes (and no visible athletics or leadership) typically produce a vote of "qualified" for them, with direct admission to Annapolis. They're in, and are given a pro forma nomination to make it legit.
Minority applicants with scores and grades down to the 300s with Cs and Ds (and no particular leadership or athletics) also come, though after a remedial year at our taxpayer-supported remedial school, the Naval Academy Preparatory School.
Fascism on alarmingly dangerous levels. But at least they aren't hiding it anymore.
On the night of June 24,the media and government become one , when ABC turns its programming over to President Obama and White House officials to push government run health care -- a move that has ignited an ethical firestorm!
Highlights on the agenda:
ABCNEWS anchor Charlie Gibson will deliver WORLD NEWS from the Blue Room of the White House.
The network plans a primetime special -- 'Prescription for America' -- originating from the East Room, exclude opposing voices on the debate.
The Director of Communications at the White House Office of Health Reform is Linda Douglass, who worked as a reporter for ABC News from 1998-2006.
Late Monday night, Republican National Committee Chief of Staff Ken McKay fired off a complaint to the head of ABCNEWS:
Dear Mr. Westin:
As the national debate on health care reform intensifies, I am deeply concerned and disappointed with ABC's astonishing decision to exclude opposing voices on this critical issue on June 24, 2009. Next Wednesday, ABC News will air a primetime health care reform “town hall” at the White House with President Barack Obama. In addition, according to an ABC News report, GOOD MORNING AMERICA, WORLD NEWS, NIGHTLINE and ABC’s web news “will all feature special programming on the president’s health care agenda.” This does not include the promotion, over the next 9 days, the president’s health care agenda will receive on ABC News programming.
Today, the Republican National Committee requested an opportunity to add our Party's views to those of the President's to ensure that all sides of the health care reform debate are presented. Our request was rejected. I believe that the President should have the ability to speak directly to the America people. However, I find it outrageous that ABC would prohibit our Party's opposing thoughts and ideas from this national debate, which affects millions of ABC viewers.
In the absence of opposition, I am concerned this event will become a glorified infomercial to promote the Democrat agenda. If that is the case, this primetime infomercial should be paid for out of the DNC coffers. President Obama does not hold a monopoly on health care reform ideas or on free airtime. The President has stated time and time again that he wants a bipartisan debate. Therefore, the Republican Party should be included in this primetime event, or the DNC should pay for your airtime.
Heh. You just know that many of these doctors voted for hi. Where's your God now?
For all the young president's popularity, the response he got Monday from doctors at an American Medical Association meeting was a sign his road is only going to get rockier as he tries to sell his plan to overhaul the nation's health care system.
The boos erupted when Obama told the doctors in Chicago he wouldn't try to help them win their top legislative priority — limits on jury damages in medical malpractice cases.
But what could they expect? If Obama announced support for malpractice limits, that would set trial lawyers and unions — major supporters of Democratic candidates — on the attack. Not to mention consumer groups.
One man was killed and many wounded, said an Iranian photographer who witnessed the shooting. Television footage showed one man, his leg covered with blood, being bundled onto the back of a taxi and driven away.
"Tanks and guns have no use any longer," chanted the protesters in a deliberate echo of slogans used leading up to the 1979 revolution.

Name 6 things your favorite (or least favorite) politician has in common with serial killers:And the work of Jim Kouri, veep of the National Association of Chiefs of Police, gets even better. Politicians are also guilty of this:
- Superficial charm
- Grandiose sense of self-worth
- Glibness
- Pathological lying
- Lack of remorse
- Manipulation of others
"The affective traits include a lack of remorse and/or guilt, shallow affect, a lack of empathy, and failure to accept responsibility. The lifestyle behaviors include stimulation-seeking behavior, impassivity, irresponsibility, parasitic orientation, and a lock of realistic life goals."I think this calls for giving my least favorite politicians some choice nicknames:
- Nancy "Mary Ann Cotton" Pelosi
- Ted "Wayne Gacy Jr." Kennedy
- Harry "Ted Bundy" Reid
- Joe "The Ripper" Biden
- Barack "Zodiac" Obama
Remember Obama's outrage at Wall Street execs and their "business trips"? Well...Courtesy of the Obama Travel Agency:
They look like ordinary tourists as they stroll along the seafront on the British territory of Bermuda, but these four men are far from regular sunseekers for they have spent the last seven years locked up in Guantanamo Bay.
The former terror suspects are Uighurs - members of China's Muslim Turkic-speaking minority - and hail from a rugged province in the far west of the country.
Now they have been given a chance by officials in the millionaire's playground - an island paradise that doubles as one of the wealthiest countries in the world.
And already they have dreams of opening the first Uighur restaurant.
Embracing the delights of their new island home, the Uighurs have already taken a sunset swim and caught a fish at their first attempt at fishing. They have also reverted to their real names after using pseudonyms since leaving China.

I'll wear this tinfoil hat until I see solid prove that Obama is a legitimate American citizen. From Repubx:
This article was originally posted on April 20 and would serve as a reminder that the machine Obama's original birth certificate would have been printed on, is the same model sold below on April 16 at a UK onlie auction. It also follows the timeline according to a poster, who said an inside source related information that a new forgery was being worked on, and would be "one-two months" tops before coming out. If this would be true, there is until the end of this week before that deadline passes.
These things are scarce, and not only this, any that are available no longer work, which narrows it down to a precious few. Granted, the ones no longer working can be repaired, but may not be so easy to do.
I'm not sure, but it appears that's the case when the Obama slobbering American media combines forces with the brother of the golden child.
A memoir by George Obama, the president's half brother and a resident of Huruma, Kenya, will be published by Simon & Schuster in January 2010. George Obama, 27, shares the same father with his famous, older half sibling, although George and Barack Obama—20 years apart in age—did not grow up together and did not meet as children.Well. There's that take on George. And then there's the true take on George. You may recall when the non-Obama media first discovered brother George:
George is the youngest of the senior Obama's seven children and was born six months before his father died.
Little is known about George Obama. The book, tentatively titled "Homeland" and to be written with author-journalist Damien Lewis, will tell of George Obama's fall into crime and poverty as a teenager and his eventual embrace of community organizing—a passion shared by the president—and of advocacy for the poor, an identification so strong that he chooses to live among them.
I have heard that brotherhood is every man’s life and that blood is thicker than any known liquid. However, yesterday I trashed those suppositions when I met George Hussein Obama, the long lost brother of Senator Barack Obama who is eyeing the US presidency.Left to Right : Rastaman, One of the girls in George’s room, George Hussein Obama, Jack, a body guard
Senator Obama a wealthy American with roots in Kenya and even relatives here in Kenya should in-act be ashamed of ever attempting to become US president. It is disgraceful for what I encountered from the meeting with George Obama is way off from brotherhood and blood.
George Obama, a 26 year old man lives in Huruma estate in a dingy he calls a house. In fact its not a dingy but a single room with a foul stench of stale cigarette and fresh pot smoke. I was short of words; I was shocked and repulsive at the environment a brother to a man who might one day become the most powerful man in the world lives. Huruma is sprawling slum laden estate. Flies, dirty as they are, fly allover, women and children everywhere, dirty and unkempt wander here. Small enterprises and all sorts of bars, video watching rooms and dirty food joints are strewn along the streets.
Obama, is a tall, slim and kind of reserved young man. He asked us what we wanted. It told him curtly. He said he can’t speak without being paid. I looked at Jack and he was perspiring.
“How much?“, I asked
“$1000!“, Came the hoarse and rude shock of a reply
“Let’s get the hell out of here!!” I told Jack..
“Wait!!” The Rasta man shot back “I will negotiate”
The Rasta man went with Obama and they negotiated and came back 15 minutes later. We were offered $200 for 5 minutes, period!!
I agreed and paid half and promised to pay the rest after the interview. He led us to the dingy, pot smoke filled room.
Inside we found four other people, two women one almost naked and two young men. All were enjoying a quiet smoke of pot. In fact we had just interrupted Gearoge Obama from what appeared to be an orgy and a pot session.
Obama said he supports his brothers presidency. He confessed that he barely communicates with him but hopes to meet him soon. Also that, he doest get any kind of support from the multimillionaire Barrack Obama.
George was emphatic that he is used to Huruma life which he called ghetto life. He is into drugs and all sorts of vices, one of his bodyguards, (the two men we found in the room) said he has tried all drugs you can mention. He eats whats found there and that he has been earning from the tons of journalists coming to see him. He boasted at a time when he said that he turned away a CNN crew which was offering him $1500 which is equivalent to kshs 100, 000.
It was incredible and we did our five minutes as we got intoxicated with the foul smoke of pot and cigarette. The George Obama associates were enjoying it and also drank some cheap gin and coke.
We left in rush, choking but shocked, is it really a brother to a man contending for the American presidency?
Shades of Roger Clinton. Some first family huh?Kenyan police say the half brother of President Barack Obama has been arrested for possession of marijuana.
Area police chief Joshua Omokulongolo said George Obama was picked up Saturday and was being held at the Huruma police post in the capital. Omokulongolo said officers found one joint of marijuana on him.
George Obama was arrested on Friday with cannabis, known locally as bhang, and was placed in custody, a senior police officer told AFP on condition of anonymity.Take this time to familiarize yourself with Obama's Kenyan family. We've written about it extensively.
"He was picked up in Nairobi's Huruma area with three other young men," the officer said, adding they were due to appear in court on Monday.
This is one of the funniest things I've read in sometime. Worst case of jungle fever I've ever seen.
The smiling, ethnically diverse family featured on the cover of Toronto’s latest edition of its summer Fun Guide was digitally altered to make the photo more “inclusive,” which city officials say is in keeping with a policy to reflect diversity.On the left is the original photo and on the right is the fake photo:
A spokesman for the department that publishes the guide listing recreation activities confirmed the publication was doctored to insert the face of a different father.
“He superimposed the African-Canadian person onto the family cluster in the original photo. It was two photographs and one head was superimposed over the original family photo,” said John Gosgnach, communications director for the social development division.
“The goal was to depict the diversity of Toronto and its residents.”
The cover shot caught the eye of a National Post graphics editor, who ran it through a program called TinEye that detects visual enhancements to standard art.
The program showed the original image was of a laughing family of indeterminate ethnic background.
Both the family in the initial photo and the new father inserted were clip art—stock images that publications sometimes purchase to use as illustrations. None are known to be Toronto residents, Mr. Gosgnach said.
“You won’t find a more inclusive organization than us,” said Kevin Sack, Toronto’s director of strategic communications. “We want everyone to feel involved and welcome to participate in everything. That’s the only goal. Nothing wrong with that.”
Apparently change ain't all that complicated. If if you can't solve the problem, just kill the problem so it moves somewhere else.
The government looking at expanding a pioneering scheme in Flint, one of the poorest US cities, which involves razing entire districts and returning the land to nature.
Local politicians believe the city must contract by as much as 40 per cent, concentrating the dwindling population and local services into a more viable area.
The radical experiment is the brainchild of Dan Kildee, treasurer of Genesee County, which includes Flint.
Having outlined his strategy to Barack Obama during the election campaign, Mr Kildee has now been approached by the US government and a group of charities who want him to apply what he has learnt to the rest of the country.
Mr Kildee said he will concentrate on 50 cities, identified in a recent study by the Brookings Institution, an influential Washington think-tank, as potentially needing to shrink substantially to cope with their declining fortunes.

Just ignore the dumbass liberal commentator and unless you like queers and more liberal agenda shoved down you throat, you're done with this vid at the 2:05 mark.
Fight the power people. This ship is sinking fast.
President Barack Obama says he has lost confidence in the inspector general who investigates AmeriCorps and other national service programs and has told Congress he is removing him from the position.Most corrupt administration ever. And they're just getting started.
Obama's move follows an investigation by IG Gerald Walpin of Sacramento Mayor Kevin Johnson, who is an Obama supporter and former NBA basketball star, into the misuse of federal grants by a nonprofit education group that Johnson headed.
The president didn't offer any more explanation, but White House Counsel Gregory Craig, in a letter to Sen. Charles Grassley, R-Iowa, cited the U.S. attorney's criticism of Walpin to an integrity committee for inspectors general.
"We are aware of the circumstances leading to that referral and of Mr. Walpin's conduct throughout his tenure and can assure you that the president's decision was carefully considered," Craig wrote.
Grassley had written Obama a letter pointing to a law requiring that Congress be given the reasons an IG is fired. He cited a Senate report saying the requirement is designed to ensure that inspectors general are not removed for political reasons.
Grassley said Walpin had identified millions of dollars in AmeriCorps funds that were wasted or misspent and "it appears he has been doing a good job."
Folks. This is just bad. Is he jumping while he swings?
Conservative foreign policy is unabashedly pro-American, unasahamed of American exceptionalism, unwilling to bend its knee to international organizations, and unapologetic about the need for the fullest range of dominant military capabilities. Most especially, conservatives understand that allies are different from adversaries, and that each should be treated accordingly.
Defending U.S. interests is neither arrogant nor disrespectful of others, but is instead the basic task of our presidents. Despite the 2008 election, neither the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction, nor international terrorism, nor the challenges of geostrategic adversaries have in any way diminished.
Overseas "apology tours," public displays of empathy and inviting the likes of Iran to Fourth of July receptions at our embassies will not alter these underlying realities.
The Obama administration finds itself surprised almost daily by, among other things:
• The recalcitrant and unyielding regime in North Korea, testing its nuclear weapons and ballistic missiles.
• Iran's persistence in pursuing precisely the same weapons programs, as well as continuing its activities as the world's central banker for terrorism.
• Hamas' continued refusal to renounce terrorism, acknowledge the state of Israel's existence and abide by prior Middle East agreements (which is hardly surprising, given that doing so would require Hamas to repudiate the fundamental principles on which it was founded).
• Russia's continued belligerent attitude toward former territories of the Soviet Union and Moscow's generally unhelpful attitude in dealing with North Korea, Iran, the Middle East and countless other problems.
We knew this was coming. WE did. The lazy ass fried chicken eating Obamatons did not.
President Barack Obama eats his vegetables and exercises every day — and he really wants you to do the same.These people thought running out of chicken was bad. Just wait until these plans kick in.
From the White House garden to his picks for top health jobs, Obama is telling America’s McDonald’s-loving, couch-dwelling, doctor-phobic populace that things are about to change.
Don’t be fooled by the presidential burger runs. Obama and Congress are moving across several fronts to give government a central role in making America healthier — raising expectations among public health experts of a new era of activism unlike any before.
Any health care reform plan that Obama signs is almost certain to call for nutrition counseling, obesity screenings and wellness programs at workplaces and community centers. He wants more time in the school day for physical fitness, more nutritious school lunches and more bike paths, walking paths and grocery stores in underserved areas.
Saving the planet one bank robbery at a time.
Going green helped a woman rob an Austin bank. The Travis County Sheriff's Office says a woman held up a bank Tuesday and apparently used a recyclable grocery bag to haul away the greenbacks.
Sheriff's spokesman Roger Wade told The Associated Press, after viewing surveillance photos of the unidentified woman with the green bag, that he's guessing "that's where she put the money."
Wade said the bag was the only one the woman has going in and coming out of the Regions Bank branch.
Obviously these people are hoping to glue this thing to Mt. Rushmore when they're done. What a bunch of hammerheads.
President Barack Obama's concrete head rested peacefully on an open-bed trailer outside Vino Vino wine bar on Guadalupe Street on Sunday evening. The 20-foot-tall sculpture of the president had just been hauled from Houston.
Its creator, 82-year-old artist David Adickes, is traveling with the 3½-ton bust, and grinned as he looked at the head that was parked on the street.
The sculpture began a 30-city tour Friday in Pearland, near Houston, and will end up in Presidents Park near Deadwood, S.D., joining the 42 other giant presidential busts Adickes has already made. He said he hopes to make it to Mount Rushmore by June 18 before taking it to the park he owns. Other cities on the tour include Fort Worth, St. Louis, Chicago, Minneapolis and Milwaukee.
People walking by the head on Guadalupe Street immediately whipped out their cell phone cameras for pictures. "It does make me laugh," said Herbert Taylor, 38. "A very big head of anything is silly and funny."
"They can talk to them and touch them," he said.
And if it weren't for the White People, he'd be Pope. From Daily Press:
Asked if he had spoken to the President, Wright said: "Them Jews aren't going to let him talk to me. I told my baby daughter, that he'll talk to me in five years when he's a lame duck, or in eight years when he's out of office. ...
"They will not let him to talk to somebody who calls a spade what it is. ... I said from the beginning: He's a politician; I'm a pastor. He's got to do what politicians do."
Wright also said Obama should have sent a U.S. delegation to the World Conference on Racism held recently in Geneva, Switzerland, but that the president did not do so for fear of offending Jews and Israel.

A push for new taxes on soda, beer and wine to help pay for Americans’ health care is stirring up more than just the beverage industry.
Advertisers, corn refiners—even addiction treatment centers—have mobilized their lobbyists, reflecting how a tax increase for a handful of popular products can reverberate broadly across Washington’s interest groups.
The Senate Finance Committee is considering raising taxes on alcohol and imposing a new levy on soda and other naturally sweetened drinks to help pay for overhauling health care. The committee calls them “lifestyle tax proposals,” saying the levies would slow sales of unhealthy products that contribute to rising medical costs.
Besides alcohol, drinks with sugar, high fructose corn syrup and similar sweeteners would be targeted, though diet drinks with artificial sweeteners would not. Other industries also are on alert, worried that the idea of “lifestyle taxes” could spread to other products deemed unhealthy.
“Are they going to hit couch manufacturers? School districts that have canceled physical education?” joked Neil Trautwein, health care lobbyist for the National Retail Federation, which opposes the plan and whose members include fast-food restaurants.
As the Democrats were so fond of saying about Sarah Palin. He's just a heartbeat away. Just a heartbeat.
That new tunnel? The one NJ Transit has been touting for years? That the Federal Transit Administration made a huge commitment to on Monday?
It’s for cars.
Or so Vice President Biden apparently thinks.
Biden had just finished telling reporters on a conference call Monday that federal stimulus money might have gone out slower in the past few months than some people liked because, “We don’t end up with any major glitches.”
Then The Record had a chance to ask about an environmental group’s complaint that Amtrak would not be able to use the new Hudson River tunnel – which is benefitting from a provision of the stimulus bill increasing the Federal Transit Administration’s debt limit -- because it doesn’t go to Penn Station.
Biden said Amtrak was getting its share of stimulus money and more projects would be announced in a few days. Then he offered this:
“Look, this is designed, this totally new tunnel, is designed to provide for automobile traffic,” Biden said. “It’s something, as you know, up your way, that’s been in the works and people have been clamoring for for a long time.”
For the record, the tunnel is for trains, and its completion would allow for more NJ Transit trains during peak hours and “one-seat” rides into Midtown Manhattan on lines serving Bergen and Passaic counties. Currently riders on those lines must switch trains.
Biden's office did not immediately respond to a request to clarify his comments.
Jeffrey Tittel, executive director of the New Jersey chapter of the Sierra Club, renewed his criticism of the tunnel. Rather than go to Penn Station and connect with Amtrak and the Long Island Railroad, NJ Transit will build a new station built 180 feet below 34th Street, or, as he calls it, “Macy’s basement.”
“It’s going to be hard to get those cars up 180 feet of escalators,” Tittel said.
He would have reached this conclusion earlier if he had ever visited Detroit.
Obama Drastically Scales Back Goals For America After Visiting Denny's
Personally, I still have hope for America. What other nation on earth is capable of this?
This is your President. He carries an invisible backpack wherever he goes.
This man is downright dangerously ignorant.
This is just great. Power to the flame broiled people!
A row between the fast food giant Burger King and one of its major franchise owners has erupted over roadside signs proclaiming "global warming is baloney".
The franchisee, a Memphis-based company called the Mirabile Investment Corporation (MIC) that owns more than 40 Burger Kings across Tennessee, Arkansas and Mississippi, has described Burger King as acting "kinda like cockroaches" over the controversy. MIC says it does not believe Burger King has the authority to make it take the signs down.
The dispute began to sizzle last week, when a local newspaper reporter in Memphis, Tennessee, noticed the signs outside two restaurants in the city and contacted the corporation to establish if the message represented its official viewpoint. Burger King's headquarters in Miami said it did not, adding that it had ordered MIC to take the signs down.
See Max Blumenthal's shocking footage of the reaction by some Israelis and American Jews in Jerusalem to Obama's speech to the Muslim world. Some of the commentary in this video is graphic and probably against American law if those comments were made here.
Why so angry? I guess they have their reasons. Here's an interesting piece from Jihad Watch about a Qur'an quote that Obama worked into his speech:
He quoted one Qur'an verse in connection with speaking of our shared interests as human beings:
As the Holy Koran tells us, "Be conscious of God and speak always the truth." That is what I will try to do – to speak the truth as best I can, humbled by the task before us, and firm in my belief that the interests we share as human beings are far more powerful than the forces that drive us apart.Ironically, the Qur'anic passage from which his quote comes actually is about fighting unbelievers, and doesn't remotely lead to thoughts of coming together with people with whom one has differences.
Obama quoted 9:119, which Pickthall renders this way: "O ye who believe! Be careful of your duty to Allah, and be with the truthful."
The passage continues:
It is not for the townsfolk of Al-Madinah and for those around them of the wandering Arabs to stay behind the messenger of Allah and prefer their lives to his life. That is because neither thirst nor toil nor hunger afflicteth them in the way of Allah, nor step they any step that angereth the disbelievers, nor gain they from the enemy a gain, but a good deed is recorded for them therefor. Lo! Allah loseth not the wages of the good. Nor spend they any spending, small or great, nor do they cross a valley, but it is recorded for them, that Allah may repay them the best of what they used to do. And the believers should not all go out to fight. Of every troop of them, a party only should go forth, that they (who are left behind) may gain sound knowledge in religion, and that they may warn their folk when they return to them, so that they may beware. O ye who believe! Fight those of the disbelievers who are near to you, and let them find harshness in you, and know that Allah is with those who keep their duty (unto Him). -- 9:120-123In that passage, the Qur'an is scolding Muslims who refused to accompany Muhammad on his expedition to Tabouk in northern Arabia, where he wanted to fight a Byzantine garrison. The Byzantines weren't there when he arrived, and so there was no battle, but he was considerably angered that some Muslims in Medina and among the Bedouins ("wandering Arabs") had refused to make the trip -- they "prefer[red] their lives to his life." The Qur'an promises that if they do anything that "angereth the disbelievers," they will be credited with having done a good deed, and Allah will repay them for such good deeds. The Muslims should fight the unbelievers and be harsh with them.
I guess. The prompter makes his speeches, so I assume it's tasting his food too.
A US "taster" tested the food being dished up to President Barack Obama at a dinner in a French restaurant, a waiter said Sunday.Obama is applying more foresight into his food eating policies than he is in his economic policies.
"They have someone who tastes the dishes," said waiter Gabriel de Carvalho from the "La Fontaine de Mars" restaurant where Obama and his family turned up for dinner on Saturday night.
"It wasn't very pleasant for the cooks at first, but the person was very nice and was relaxed, so it all went well," he said on the Itele news channel.
Asked by AFP to comment, the restaurant confirmed the report.
The official statement from Chinese officials is that he was quarantined due to concerns about swine flu. My guess, however, is that they quarantined him so he wouldn't spread his stupidity.
New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin, his wife, Seletha, and a member of the mayor's entourage were being held in quarantine at a hotel in Shanghai after a passenger on Nagin's flight to China came down with suspected swine flu symptoms, a city spokeswoman said Sunday.
The Nagins and four City Hall staff members left Friday for the 10-day trip to China and Australia aimed at luring industry to New Orleans and discussing government's role in mitigating climate change, his office said. The three, who were quarantined as a pre-caution, were sitting close to a passenger who showed "signs and symptoms of an influenza-like illness suspected to be of the H1N1 subtype," according to a statement from Ceeon D. Quiett, Nagin's director of communications.
