Audacity of Truth
"Diplomacy":
"People are saying what in the world is going on with North Carolina, we look like Mississippi." - NC Gov. Bev Perdue (D) on the passage of Amendment One, 5-11-12
Quote of the day
I like the way the Telegraph’s Tim Walker sets the scene:
While not exactly a film buff, Gordon Brown was touched when Barack Obama gave him a set of 25 classic American movies – including Psycho, starring Anthony Perkins – on his recent visit to Washington.
Alas, when the PM settled down to begin watching them the other night, he found there was a problem.
The films only worked in DVD players made in North America and the words “wrong region” came up on his screen…
Ah, well. The White House spokesman is said to have “sniggered” upon hearing the news.
I haven’t run into Gordon Brown in over a decade, but my memory of the last time I met him in a TV green room is of a glowering misanthropic type who enjoys nursing a grudge. What doesn’t go around (in the DVD player) comes around. When the President and his Teleprompter visit London for the G20 summit in a couple of weeks, it would be a tragedy were Barack Oprompta to rise for his big speech to find nothing but the words “Wrong Region” flashing on his screen (although I’m sure the Queen would be very polite and string along and make all the swells stand up and join the toast to “Ron Region”, whoever he is).
But don’t forget, folks: Somewhere in Texas a village has been reunited with its idiot, and we now have the whip-smartest administration of David Brooks’ lifetime.
Whew! That’s a relief.

Two comments: First, Steyn’s last paragraph is priceless; second, of course His Hollowness would make a comment like that, he didn’t have a teleprompter to guide him in dispensing wisdom to the common folk who watch late-night TV. Only when he has the aid of his fried-brain prosthetic (the teleprompter) can he avoid saying things that, if his name was Bush, he would be crucified mercilessly for by the MSM.
I am disturbed more each day listening to Obama’s smart-ass comments and Gibbs’ giggling like a little kindergartener. This is serious business and we have a buffoon in the White House! What is even more disgusting is the fact that so few find it appalling. Those who voted for him and still give him high approval ratings WILL be held responsible for the damage he does to this country.
Between the Freudian slip on the Tonight Show and his incredibly insensitive and [protocol] ignorance with the British PM, it is difficult to understand why our “fearless leader” needs to keep reminding EVERYONE that he is, in fact, the President. So, who is he trying to convince? Or is he still unsure? Did anyone hear George Bush stand in front of a camera and announce he was the PRESIDENT? Doesn’t the White House have a person in charge of protocol? The whole administration, loaded with persons who knowingly have cheated on their income taxes, behaves like the bully in the school yard. The private session for OB’s award is probably another “closed door” agreement for bailout money; I read where some newspapers are going under.
Well Clueless certainly does describe this adminstration. I guess Joe Biden was wrong when he said that the presidency wasn’t a place for on the job training. The present occupant of this office is actually making the last occupant look like a super genius. LOL – Lorica
At least his teleprompter is intelligent enough not to present the public with culturally insensitive remarks about Special Olympics participants. As for the rest, starting with BO and JB, I wouldn’t count on their collective intelligence to get them through anything. Cunning, maybe, and maybe even intrigue, but not intelligence.
Empty suits, all.
