    Great Leaders Think Alike
    When we saw the USA Today headline "Obama Tweets Shout-Out to Michael Phelps After Record," we immediately thought of what the president must've said: "You didn't break that."

    It turns out he didn't use exactly those words, but blogger Brian Dunn calls our attention to an Asian News International quote from North Korean Om Yun Chol, who "joined an elite list of weightlifters to have lifted three times their weight during the men's 56-kg, group B, clean and jerk weightlifting," in which Om won the gold:

    "I am very happy and give thanks to our Great Leader for giving me the strength to lift this weight. I believe Kim Jong Il gave me the record and all my achievements. It is all because of him," Om said.

    It's great to see that Barack Obama has once again made America a leader in the world of ideas.

  5. That's taking the previous levels of rightwing incomprehending stupidity to a whole new level. It's like a synergy of stupidity.

    Wrt Liberal Stupidity
    from Reliable Source


    Liberal stupidity (based on Latin: stupçre or stupor; removal from sense or sensibility) is statements, policies, or actions by adherents of liberalism which are authoritative in form, but the end of which is devoid of reality or common sense, with the general public in most cases forced to pay for them. An example is the incredible statement by Democrat Hank Johnson of Georgia, who feared that the relocation of 8,000 Naval personnel to Guam would "capsize" the island.

    It's in the "genes"
    Researchers under James H. Fowler, professor of medical genetics and political science at the University of California, San Diego, claim to have discovered a "liberal gene" (DRD4) associated with DNA in certain individuals. Fowler's research centered on dopamine, which is a neurotransmitter that affects many processes and controls over the brain, including movement, emotions, pleasure, and pain; he further claims in his paper that it's heritable, meaning it can be passed on from generation to generation, depending on social norms and environments.

    His paper followed previous ones in which he claimed voter turnout was determined by two genes and altruism; all of which appeared in the Journal of Politics instead of a typical scientific journal. If such a "gene" is true, then it explains many traits of liberal behavior with regards to stupidity, some of which is detailed in the following topics:

    The spitting on the American flag
    America and American values are disrespected and threatened everywhere in the country by rampant liberalism, which is symbolized as a whole by what they do to the flag. From displaying it pinned upside-down on jackets or using it as a "walk-on" in art displays, liberals have repeatedly insulted America by their contempt of this highest of American symbols. Some examples include:

    Unrepentent terrorist William Ayers photographed standing on the flag for a magazine article, ironically published the day of the September 11, 2001 attacks on America by Islamic terrorists.

    A mural of the flag, painted on a slab of concrete in California days after the 9/11 attacks, declared graffiti by the state legislature and removed days before the Fourth of July, 2010.

    The use of the flag as floor mats at the University of Maine, with the arrest of those veterans protesting it if they dared to remove the flags from the floor.

    In an act that still reverberates today, on April 25, 1976, two liberals got on the playing field at Dodger Stadium and attempted to light a flag on fire; their attempt was thwarted by ball player Rick Monday.

    The staining of an American icon: Superman
    The comic book character Superman represented American values since his creation in the 1930's by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster. In 2011, DC Comics have stated that Superman intends to renounces his U.S. citizenship before the United Nations in Action Comics No. 900, “I’m tired of having my actions construed as instruments of U.S. policy … ‘truth, justice and the American way’ - it’s not enough anymore.” DC Comics issued a statement saying "Superman announces his intention to put a global focus on his never-ending battle, but he remains, as always, committed to his adopted home..." Just days later, after negative publicity in the news media and internet bloggers - and coupled with the May 1, 2011 killing of terrorist Osama bin Laden - did the editors at DC Comics indicate a change of heart.

    Major Owens
    A Democratic socialist from New York City, Owens stated in a 1995 speech on the House floor that during the African slave trade more than 200,000,000 people were thrown over the sides of the slave ships which carried them across the Atlantic, permanently disrupting the ecology and causing sharks to follow any and all ships since the trade was stopped in the 1850's. This figure worked out to be 152 slaves taken aboard nine ships per day for 200 years to get the total amount of slaves thrown overboard. After reworking his absurd figure down to 100,000,000 slaves, Owens' claim was picked up by ABC News, which reported the claim as "fact".

    State legislative members
    Mike Moran
    Democratic State Representative Mike Moran of Brighton, Massachusetts was involved in a collision on May 21, 2010 with an illegal immigrant and was seriously injured. The suspect, 27-year-old Isaias Naranjo, was charged with leaving the scene of an accident, driving without a license, and driving drunk; he had a blood alcohol level of .25, and reportedly laughed when the charges were read to him.

    Moran voted YES to several bills seen as "pro-illegal immigrant" in Massachusetts, including to vote to "delay indefinitely" a proposal to "require the state to verify that anyone over 18 who applies for state benefits is legally in Massachusetts"

    Foreign leaders
    On April 27, 2010 Gordon Brown, prime minister of the United Kingdom, was confronted by an elderly Gillian Duffy, 65, and a life-long member of the Labour Party. Her question had to do with the massive influx of immigrants to her hometown of Rochdale, the high taxation, the massive British debt, her disappointment in her party, and she wanted answers as to why. After the standard liberal answers, Brown got into his car and - forgetting he had a microphone on, which was still recording - talked to his aide: "That was a disaster...should never have put me with that woman. Whose idea was that?...she was just a sort of bigoted woman who said she used to be Labour." Brown was apologetic almost as immediately as word of his gaffe leaked to the press, but the damage was done: Brown's Labour Party lost the election and he resigned from office.

    News Reporters
    Nick McDermott
    The reporter at CBS affiliate KTVA in Alaska left a message in late October, 2010 with staffers of Republican Senate candidate Joe Miller, "hoping" for an interview. Apparently not familiar with the operation of his iPhone - namely the "on/off" button - he left it on, allowing Miller's spokesperson, Randy DeSoto, to leave a full transcript of a plot to insert a convicted child molester, or, failing that, create an incident of violence, inside of a Miller rally.

    Dan Rather
    The CBS anchorman became an ex-CBS employee soon after he presented a story on 60 Minutes Wednesday on September 8, 2004; in it he presented "documents" dated in 1972, supposedly written by the commanding officer at a Texas Air National Guard base, which were critical of then-1st LT George W. Bush, and hinting of his refusal to serve in Vietnam. Determined to have been poorly-concocted forgeries - which included a non-existent post office box and a type setting equal to a computer program which wasn't created until years later - the "Killian Documents" were dismissed as an October surprise meant to thwart the election of Bush that year; in fact producer Marla Mapes had in her possession evidence that contradicted the documents, but buried it instead in favor of Rather's "story". Failure to maintain basic journalistic investigation proceedures resulted in the firing of Rather, Mapes, and a number of other individuals; the tendering of resignations of senior CBS staffers; as well as bestowing a name on the whole episode in Rather's honor: Rathergate.

    Hollywood stars
    Jon Dalton
    Dalton, who goes by the stage name "Jonny Fairplay" did something to cause boos directed against himself at the Fox Reality Awards Show on October 2, 2007. During this round actor Danny Bonaduce walked up next to him and said the obvious: "They're booing because they hate you." Upon turning his back on Dalton and attempting to exit the stage, Bonaduce was jumped on by Dalton, who subjected him to a sexual act. Either forgotten or ignored was the fact that Bonaduce has a black belt in Tang Soo Do, and he simply flipped him up and over; Dalton hit the stage floor face-first and lost some teeth. His exit off the stage was humiliating and rapid, made worse by the L.A. district attorney declining to press assault charges against Bonaduce due to insufficient evidence.

    Gwyneth Paltrow
    Paltrow, a long-time "champion" of the environment, ended a small celebration in Hollywood, California involving a newly-released video by British singer Paul McCartney, stepped into her car and went to dinner with her husband on April 18th, 2012. The restaurant was four doors down the street - 0.06 of a mile - and took approximately 10 seconds, while several others who were at the same event and went to the same restaurant walked the distance in less than a couple minutes. The car she was in - a chauffeured Lincoln Town Car - is a gas guzzler, getting 15 miles per gallon or less in the city.

    And, of course, who can forget Dem Rep Anthony Weiner and his famous tweets?

    But, we are all very proud of our fearless leader, BO, who, towards the end of his 2008 campaign, told us in no uncertain terms, on camera, that he had managed to visit all 57 states!...

    etc etc etc.........

  7. Ever notice how liberals always seem to want to blame things (they support)on genetics. That way no one has to take responsibility for their actions.

    Of course now the complete opposite is true when discussing the failure of minorities, it's ALWAYS the environment or someone else holding them back.(because lord knows everyone was created equal :D )
    Once again the central theme is abdication of personal responsibility.

  8. But, you're gay. You weren't born that way? You mean you made a conscious decision to choose men over women sexually?

    Really?
