Elevator madness

I despise elevators. I know, intellectually, how they are made and how safe most of them are. Yet I dislike riding in them, especially when they sway, and I have nightmares about being stuck in them. Mercifully, I have not had to spend an actual forty-one hours trapped in one, like this fellow did in 1999. I can’t watch the video.

Barry’s pastor

The Rev. God damn America is truly the gift that keeps on giving. Why, the foulmouthed, conspiracy theorist S.O.B. is appearing Monday at the National Press Club. Just can’t keep a bad man down. As for the North Carolina GOP attack ad on Barry’s pathetic pastor, which McCain and the national GOP are so exercised about, it looks as typical to me as it does to Mickey Kaus at Slate–unless you think Barry deserves special treatment for some reason. Because of his color, maybe? The NYTimes does. They call the ad "race-baiting." But, of course, that’s the NYTimes, the Leftist house organ. Get over it.

When pigs fly

Hogs, actually. Three hundred pounders in the seat next to you in economy class, spilling over into your seat. Their arms are so fat they can’t keep them in their own area–an average airline seat width of nineteen inches. Their thighs are as big around as your waist. Happened to Mr. B.’s mom this week on a business trip to D.C.–going and coming. Maybe airlines should charge by the pound, the way  slave traders did. Unfortunately Southwest Airlines has set a bad precedent. Now, we’re supposed to believe it’s discrimination to complain. Hogwash!

Broadway Baby

Time out for Barry’s Leftist buddies Bernadine Dohrn and her husband William Ayers–with whom he served on a foundation board and held a 1995 campaign event in their home–and their connection to Broadway Baby:

It was a Manhattan boutique that Dohrn managed in 1979, where customer identity-theft funded Black Liberation Army and Weather Underground armed robberies. They led to the 1981 deaths of a black security guard and two white police officers. Charming, and BTW, unrepentent, these folks.

So what does all this make Barry, a useful idiot or a Trojan horse? Imagine what his supreme court appointments would be like.

McCain in a walk

When you look at the contrast between him and his opposition…

"Some say John McCain’s character was formed in a North Vietnamese prison. I say those people should take a gander at what John chose to do–voluntarily. Being a carrier pilot requires aptitude, intelligence, skill, knowledge, discernment, and courage of a kind rarely found anywhere but in a poem of Homer’s or a half gallon of Dewar’s. I look from John McCain to what the opposition has to offer. There’s Ms. Smarty-Pantsuit, the Bosnia-Under-Sniper-Fire poster gal, former prominent Washington hostess, and now the JV senator from the state that brought you Eliot Spitzer and Bear Stearns. And there’s the happy-talk boy wonder, the plaster Balthazar in the Cook County political crèche, whose policy pronouncements sound like a walk through Greenwich Village in 1968: ‘Change, man? Got any spare change? Change?’"

…you just gotta laugh! Hoot! Snicker.

Hilarity vs McCain

Well, she won Pennsylvania. Democrat Pennsylvania, that is. Not the entire state’s electorate by any means. The MSM, whose practitioners are almost enitrely Democrats, seems to like people to forget that part. I think she would be somewhat harder for McCain to beat than Barry–if she was noiminated–but not that much harder. As usual in the past three presidential races, the Democrats have produced the most colorful nominees. But also the least electable.

FLDS scandal: the Obama connection

Everywhere you go, these days, Barry keeps turning up. Rozita Swinton, the hoaxer caller, who led the state to bust the Morman temple in Eldorado is apparantly, wait for it, a Pledged Barack Obama State Delegate from El Paso. So why is she living in Colorado Springs? The plot sickens.
