One of the most dreaded weeks of the year in New York City is upon us. Yes, it's the week of the UN General Assembly. It's when all of the leaders of the world convene to preen, posture, and pontificate about how the world could be so much more peaceful if only Israel didn't exist. Okay, that was an editorial, but hey, the new president of Iran Hassan Rouhani actually indicated that the holocaust may have actually happened. That's progress, right?
Anyway, between the street closures, public transportation slowdowns, bomb threats, and massive police presence, there was one leader who was not allowed to speak...
I know he would speak for all of us if he could, so we must speak for him. We must make his voice heard (in my head, he sounds like an old Jewish deli counter man). Well, you know the drill... make it funny because we all need a good laugh this week that's not related Congress...

I love the Jews. One of my good friends, Sol, is a (non-observant, liberal) Jew. (His name is Sol, so you know he's really Jewish.) Sol thinks Israel is the problem in the Middle East, so it's totally not anti-Semitic to be anti-Israel. Oh, and he also thinks they should give up their nukes.
It looks like a giant Jell-O mold.
I hate Jell-O.
Oh, come on. There's always room for Jell-O!
Hey, who youze calling "jello"? Say dat to my face and I will slime youze so bad...hey, I'm tawkin' to you!
This is worth the read. It's about defunding Obamacare and what Hugh Hewitt think the real goal is. Very cynical. LINK
More circular firing squad behavior...and so what if the Repubs are developing lists? That's a good thing, right?
Kind of depends on what the lists are for. Are they new people or to exclude the disloyal. I'm thinking the latter as the former makes no sense actually.
But more to the point, it's interesting that they are pushing obsessively on something they admit can't actually work and which only has the purpose of exciting the people they told it would work. That is a recipe for disappointment. It's like promising a kid that if they just believe, then you'll be transported to Disney World. That may excite for a few minutes, but when it doesn't work, there is blowback to deal with.
Bev and Andrew, A lot of the talkers today are struggling to explain why the fake filibuster mattered. The problem is that while everyone now admits that this was always just for show, they hadn't been treating it that way for the past several weeks. To the contrary, they've been making it a litmus test of RINOism. Either you are with us and you stand tall to defund Obamacare and save America, or you're a dirty RINO who love Obama and wants to subvert the country.
Their moronic listeners bought into this crap, and now they're in shock to hear that this was never intended to actually achieve anything. "You mean my radio guy lied to me?" So the talkers need to find a way to explain the contradiction and they are latching onto things like "we did this to expose Obamacare to the public" (as if the public didn't already understand the problem.)
On the face of what Hewitt says, this sounds like his explanation is that this was meant to lure it more morons -- people who can't tell the difference between a legitimate promise and a total lie. But like Andrew, I suspect what Hewitt is really saying is that this was an exercise meant to smoke out the traitors.
Eh, that's not Mr. Pelosi. That's the result of Nancy trying to mate with a human.
Okay, here's a few non-political captions before I head out:
New York Version:
"Mark Sanchez watches Gino Smith from the sideline."
Pittsburgh Version:
"The Commies following their upcoming 1-game playoff against the Swashbucklers."
Midwest Version:
"Brady Hoke at the end of the season after losing back-to-back games to the same team in both Ann Arbor and Indianapolis." (Mwuh-ha-ha-ha-HAAAAA!!!)
T-Rav, Same difference, isn't it? :P
Terry, I'm curious why you agree with me. What makes you think that?
Rustbelt, This is the face Steelers fans are making this year!
Andrew, you got me there!
Don't worry about it, Rustbelt. And just be thankful you're not a Tampa fan. We're in the middle of a grand implosion.
Well, Andrew, misery loves company. And win or lose, we can still talk smack about the Patriots.
That we can! Down with the Patriots!
Hey, what's worse--having a grand implosion or starting the season with playoff hopes and then dropping to 1-3, like the Rams? If they lose to Jacksonville next week, there will be people calling for Jeff Fisher's head.
And yes, we can ALWAYS talk smack about the Patriots.
T-Rav, The Rams look brutal right now. The 49ers are just dominating them.
We've got a different problem in Tampa where the rumors have run away with everything. There are allegations (by reporters) that the coach sabotaged the QB he just benched, that the owners want to move the team, that the GM and the coach are feuding, that the players hate the coach, etc. None of it appears to be true, but it's being taken on faith and people are screaming for everyone to be fired. Ug. That is not how you rebuild a team.
