General Observations

Nearly two weeks after the "Panty Bomber" attempted to blow Northwest flight 253 with 279 passengers and 11 crew members on board out of the sky, the US State Department announced that they’d cancelled his visa. How quick would they have acted if he'd been successful?
When the "Stimulus" bill was barreling through Congress, the President told us that without it, the unemployment rate would climb above 8%. We were also told that it had to be done now or the sky would fall. Well, the Democrats passed the stimulus and to this point in time only 30 percent of the money has been spent and the unemployment is definitely above 8%. If it was so important, why have we only spent 30% of the funds? I guess the unemployment rate in all those non-existent congressional districts and phantom zip codes (fourteen in Virginia alone) is less than 8% now.
Former Democratic Presidential Nominee and current Massachusetts’ Senator John Kerry’s office recently announced he was, "getting a hip replacement." I thought that’s what Obama was supposed to be.
If the Federal Government can’t quickly and efficiently distribute H1N1 Vaccine, what makes anyone think they can run the entire healthcare delivery system?
If you didn’t get the John Kerry hip replacement joke, look at the word "hip" as an adjective instead of a noun.
Maybe there’s some honesty in the ACLU after all, the director of the ACLU is now referring to the Illinois prison the Obama Administration wants to purchase for Guantanamo detainees as "Gitmo North".
