"I'M SORRY, THE PRESIDENT'S ON THE LINE WITH SANDRA FLUKE.

WOULD YOU LIKE TO HOLD?"

People the White House might want to call with an encouraging word:

1) SGT TRAVIS MILLS, QUADRUPLE AMPUTEE

Look for more info, and what you can do to help, at www.travismills.org -- if you can get through. The site traffic is so heavy it seems to have crashed. [link fixed]

2) And then there's BOWE BERGDAHL, PRISONER OF WAR, held in Afghanistan by the Taliban (did I say that right, Mr. President -- "Tah-lee-bahn"?) since 2009.

I'm sure if you could blame Bush you would, Mr. Obama, but YOU OWN THIS ONE since it happened on your watch.

"Yes We CAN negotiate with terrorists."

"Still watching the line....."

DUH.

"Canada has oil; the U.S. needs oil.
You'd think it would be easy from there."

But no.

And more "smart diplomacy" at work at the meeting of the Three Amigos (U.S., Canada, and Mexico). Apparently the two bi-lingual leaders came away a bit frosted with their uni-lingual American "partner". I know you're supposed to keep your friends close and your enemies closer (especially if you're into the gangsterism of the Chicago Way) but it helps to know the difference between the two.

HEADS UP -- SNOWBALL COMIN'

OBAMA CAMPAIGN FUNDRAISING FRAUD
VERSION 2.0

We're at it again, we troublemaking, jammie-wearing blog-jockeys who keep inventing new identities and making teeny little fraudulent contributions to the Obama [re]election coffers. Efforts to draw attention to the problem in 2008 fizzled, but over the past week the evidence has begun to accumulate that we're having another go at it, and more attention will be paid.

Stories here, here, here [2008].
And it gets juicier here.
Update: yet another.

And if you've got the time, 57 posts over the past four years at Atlas Shrugs, where Pamela Geller has tracked this ongoing criminal boondoggle since its inception.

RE-SET BUTTON

I'm a blogger elsewhere, but have decided to split my interests, in the interest of putting my Deep Thoughts in the saucepan on the burner over there, and my Politics in the frying pan on the burner over here -- and possibly keeping what's here out of eye-shot of my fans and family over there who prefer not to read the red meat. To be as blunt as blunt can be, there's a man in the military who would prefer not to be confronted with the pointed daily reminder of how completely his Commander-in-Chief SUCKS. So I'll spout about that here, and hope he is none the wiser when he checks in over there -- especially while he's OVER THERE.

That's it for today, until I spin the dial, and figure out which floodgate of fury I'm in the mood to open up. Then, everybody duck.
