  11. Biden reminds me of George McGovern who couldn’t wait to get out of Vietnam, but campaigned hard to go into the killing fields of Cambodia.

  17. Great Classic Story:

    CLASSIC VERSION

    The ant works hard in the withering heat all summer long, building his
    house and laying up supplies for the winter. The grasshopper thinks he’s
    a fool and laughs and dances and plays the summer away. Come winter, the
    ant is warm and well fed. The grasshopper has no food or shelter so he
    dies out in the cold.

    Moral: Be responsible for yourself!

    MODERN VERSION

    The ant works hard in the withering heat all summer long, building his
    house and laying up supplies for the winter. The grasshopper thinks he’s
    a fool and laughs and dances and plays the summer away. Come winter, the
    shivering grasshopper calls a press conference and demands to know why
    the ant should be allowed to be warm and well fed while others are cold
    and starving.

    CBS, NBC and ABC show up to provide pictures of the shivering
    grasshopper next to a video of the ant in his comfortable home with a
    table filled with food. “America” is stunned by the sharp contrast. How
    can this be, that in a country of such wealth, this poor grasshopper is
    allowed to suffer so?

    Kermit the Frog appears on Oprah with the grasshopper, and everybody
    cries, then they sing “It’s Not Easy Being Green.” Bill and Hillary
    Clinton make a special guest appearance on the CBS Evening News to tell
    a concerned Dan Rather that they will do everything they can for the
    grasshopper who has been denied the prosperity he deserves by those who
    benefited unfairly during the Reagan summers, or as Bill refers to it as
    “Temperatures of the 80′s.”

    Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton stage a demonstration in front of the
    ant’s house where the news stations film the group singing “We shall
    overcome”. Jesse then has the group kneel down to pray to God for the
    grasshopper’s sake.

    Al Gore exclaims in an interview with Peter Jennings that the ant has
    gotten rich off the back of the grasshopper, and calls for an immediate
    tax hike on the ant to make him pay his “fair share”. Finally, the EEOC
    drafts the “Economic Equity and Anti-Ant Act”, retroactive to the
    beginning of the summer. The ant is fined for failing to hire a
    proportionate number of green bugs and, having nothing left to pay his
    retroactive taxes, his home is confiscated by the government.

    Hillary gets her old law firm to represent the grasshopper in a
    defamation suit against the ant, and the case is tried before a panel of
    federal judges that Bill appointed from a list of single-parent welfare
    recipients who can only hear cases on Thursday’s between 1:30 and 3:00
    PM when there are no talk shows scheduled. The ant loses the case. The
    story ends as we see the grasshopper finishing up the last bits of the
    ant’s food while the government house he is in, which just happens to be
    the ant’s old house, crumbles around him since he doesn’t maintain it.

    The ant has disappeared in the snow. And on the TV, which the
    grasshopper bought by selling most of the ant’s food, they are showing
    Bill Clinton standing before a wildly applauding group of Democrats
    announcing that a new era of “fairness” has dawned in America.

    The grasshopper is found dead in a drug related incident and the house,
    now abandoned, is taken over by a gang of spiders who terrorize the once
    peaceful neighborhood.

    Moral: Be careful how you vote.

  23. Hey Global Warming zealots: Here’s a link to the online documentary “The Great Global Warming Swindle” .

    It thoroughly debunks the hypothesis that Global Warming is human-caused.

    I challenge you to watch it, then tell me you still worship Al Gore.
