Game Of Thrones: “Winter Is Trumping”

The Republican front-runner, Donald Trump, appears in scenes from the HBO series Game Of Thrones in a brilliantly edited video mashup.  Trump, wielding a Valyrian steel sword, says he will build a wall to restore “control”, complains about the Pope and promises to bring back “a hell of a lot worse than waterboarding.”

The World’s Most Dangerous Community Organizer Gets “School House” Rocked

Once upon a time Saturday Night Live was something I made a point of watching every Saturday night.  That was when the comedy skits were actually funny. 

The political slant of the show became as noticeable as a piece of spinach stuck between someone’s teeth.  Do you embarrass the person by telling them they have a snack for later or do you ignore it?

I opted for the easier path of ignoring it.  Lately however, SNL has gotten noticed for its occasional scathing criticism of The World’s Most Dangerous Community Organizer.  Last night their Cold Open was pretty amusing with its take on the executive action taken on immigration.  They cleverly used an updated version of the 1975 Schoolhouse Rock! Segment, “I’m Just A Bill”

The Left emerged butthurt and the SNL parody was fact-checked by The Washington Post, a paper which is, itself a parody.  The newspaper even took the time to extrapolate their absurdity by providing a flowchart showing who is eligible for the immigration reprieve.

I only have one bone to pick with SNL.  They failed to point out the imperialness of The World’s Most Dangerous Community Organizer and those who will benefit the most from not being deported.  I took care of that.  You’re welcome.

Late To The Punchline

If you’re gullible it’s probably a good idea to look before you leap.  Just ask “Karoli” a contributor to an über liberal website that is littered with brainiacs from the administrations of Bubba and Barry.

It all began with a “plagiarized interview” from an openly satirical site The National Report.  A bogus website, KCTV7, heisted text from The National Report that claimed Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN) had called for unaccompanied Central American children to be sent to indoctrination camps to become Americanized in an interview with Minnesota’s Twin Cities News talk radio host Jason Lewis.  There was no such article and no such interview that featured the Congresswoman.

Scott Kaufman sounded the alarm suggesting the “crazy racist Bachmann story [was] so believable liberal websites” fell for the parody.  The sites were forced to update the story admitting they were bamboozled.

Everyone knows that Bachmann is a huge target of the Left and any chance they get to slam her is an opportunity they will lick their chops to jump at even if they are made to look like blithering idiots.  According to a Memeorandum thread there were at least three liberal websites that took the bait hook, line and sinker.

Karoli’s response to the kerfuffle she created:
“Yeah, I got pwned. How sad is it that it was just this side of realistic enough to believe in the first place. When you have a reputation for making outrageous and ridiculous comments, it becomes easier and easier to believe something that should have been dismissed out of hand.  Live and learn.”

Meet Gil Fulbright (AKA) Phillip Mamouf-Wifarts: The Senate Candidate Who Thinks The People Of Kentucky Deserve The Best Representation Money Can Buy

Isn’t it time politicians were honest with you?

He's running for U.S. Senate in Kentucky, but he's not going to talk to you about “jobs” and the “middle class.” People without jobs can’t afford to donate to his campaign. And the middle class, well, they’ll be gone soon anyway.

His opponents Mitch McConnell and Alison Lundergan Grimes will spend $100 million to show the people of Kentucky how much they care.

Honestly, he doesn't care about Kentucky. He cares about that sweet, sweet cash.

Find out what Gil thinks about net neutrality, healthcare costs, and the economy.  You can also follow Gil on Twitter.  Just remember, it’s not about you sweety.  It’s about your money.

What If?????

I’ve been cooped up in the house since Saturday battling acute sinusitis and acute bronchitis.  The prescription drugs I was given yesterday following my doctor visit are finally starting to kick in. 

So…this morning I was surfing some of my favorite political cartoon sites and happened upon one from Mike Lester that was so damn funny I nearly pissed myself.

You can click over there in a minute.  It is a screen cap of that ridiculous “event registry” page on you-know-who’s website that became the brunt of jokes all across the dextrosphere and in Twitterdom.  Next to it is you-know-who standing in the middle of a pile of open cardboard boxes and a sea of toasters.

Mike’s take on the ludicrous fundraising scheme of “all your wedding presents are belong to us” was spot on and I wondered if I could Photoshop™ something that picked up on Mike’s humor.

This is the result.  Now you can click over there

Don’t worry; you can’t catch my cooties so have a good day and thanks for visiting me here in my sickbed.
