“President Obama’s State of the Union drew just over 8 million viewers on the major cable news networks, suggesting Tuesday’s address may have been one of the least-watched in more than a decade.”
Well that’s refreshing. In a country of more than 300 million people, the vast majority had better things to do than listen to Barry tell lies.

“In Hollywood, people who can’t stand each other pretend to like each other. In Washington, people who like each other pretend they can’t stand each other. In both cases, the goal is to keep the public in the dark about what’s really going on.”

UPDATE: Our one-trick pony president wants “more entitlements, taxes and unemployment” while setting the table for the Hildabeast in 2016. One of every six men unemployed ain’t enough for them.
As the WSJ puts it (behind a firewall): “The President has suddenly discovered that middle-class incomes have plunged on his watch, and he’s demanding that Congress address this with more of the same policies that have done so much to reduce middle-class incomes.”
This time a Republican congress may thwart him. May thwart him. Too many of them are just like him. There’s hope, however, in the likes of Sen. Joni Ernst, R-Iowa. The Democrat media already is trying to turn her into a joke.

Well, via Skype, anyhow. The famous “human rights activist” and Russian dupe is scheduled to perform his latest routine on March 10. While Austin’s Commie libs swoon over their favorite resident of Putinistan.
“Now that Ed Snowden has been in Russia for more than eighteen months, having settled into a cosy domestic arrangement with his stripper dancer girlfriend, his long-term presence in Putinistan has become a bit of an embarrassment to Ed’s admirers who possess any sense of honesty and/or decency. His sponsor and protector is a KGB thug who does smash-and-grabs against other countries, and for normals this is a tad incongruous with Snowden’s saintly status…”
Ah, well, “honesty and decency” have always been highly fungible terms to Austin Lefties.

I don’t usually wear tee-shirts of any kind. They just seem too juvenile and low-rent. When I do, however, I try to eschew those shirts printed with provocative slogans. Who needs to start a fight, okay?
But this one I would really like to wear. And, unfortunately for me, it comes in a men’s version. So far I’m successfully resisting.

At least 800,000 Texans carry concealed handguns and many of them are women. Thousands more of both sexes keep a loaded gun at home. An old Houston girlfriend of mine kept a loaded 20-gauge shotgun under her side of the bed.
But this unidentified woman— and a few others in the fifteen other photos of armed Texas women at the link above—really shouldn’t have her finger on the trigger until she’s ready to shoot. Unless she’s planning to kneecap herself. That she does anyhow indicates what you might get real quick if you mess with her.
And yet… According to the CDC, in 2011, Americans used guns for self-defense 2.5 million times. Total gun homicides – including murders by criminals and the mentally ill – was only about 10,000. That was in a population of 310 million.

“The Wall Street Journal, Washington Post, USA Today, CBS and Fox News, among many others, have carried the cartoon. But CNN, ABC, NBC, MSNBC and the New York Times are among those refusing to do so.”
No surprise. The millions of sales in Paris are, however. Wouldn’t you like to be a stockholder in Charlie Weekly right now?
