Evening roundup-October 24

  Voters are really, really mad at Obama and the mess he's made. In fact, they're so mad that the gay and lesbian community may be voting against him. Of course, AP/Yahoo justifies this anger due to "lack of anger at progress" in gay and lesbian issues.

  Does it ever occur to any of these dodo birds that maybe gay and lesbian voters actually care about the country and may even be patriotic and upset with what Obama and his thugs have done to it?

  Now that a judge has ruled that Joe Miller's work records should be unsealed, Professor Jacobsen asks, "When will Obama's records be unsealed?" What's good for the goose...He also mentions the the Pure Vermont slogan that so many Vermont businessmen use is, um, racist? But only since a Republican starts using it as a slogan, mind you. Read it here.

  Having given up on this next election. AP/Yahoo moves on to a more graceful narrative for the biggest LOSER in the election (headline): "Republicans eye big win as Obama seeks to turn tide." And AP/Yahoo continue to shill and cover for Obama. Here's the latest headline: "Obama likely to focus on deficit in next 2 years."
  Yeah. Like we believe that. He's going to because he has to do something to get reelected other than what he's been doing.
  But he won't. Not really.
  The article goes on to lament the uncooperativeness of the nasty Republicans and how MUCH The One regrets having to spend so much money on crap stimulus projects.
  Director Blue traces the events of the mortgage crisis here. Here's a smidgen:

In August of 2008, Wayne Barrett at the Village Voice wrote, "[Clinton appointee] Andrew Cuomo... made a series of decisions between 1997 and 2001 that gave birth to the country's current crisis. He took actions that... helped plunge Fannie and Freddie into the subprime markets without putting in place the means to monitor their increasingly risky investments. He turned the Federal Housing Administration...into a sweetheart lender with sky-high loan ceilings and no money down, and he legalized what a federal judge has branded 'kickbacks' to brokers that have fueled the sale of overpriced and unsupportable loans."

  Voters are fed up with the bossy Obama. 
  If you were thinking about buying one of those eco-efficient little deathtraps known as mini-cars quadricycles like the G-Wiz, think again. The inventors wouldn't even let their crash dummies participate in the test trials because they cost too much. Human life, OTOH, is apparently expendable. This is a G-Wiz. Probably don't watch this if you're claustrophobic.

  Meh. What budget crisis? He's working on it, he's working on it. Especially by blowing it on another vacation. Spare no expense! Book every room! Whee! So glad the rules don't apply to us, just like they don't apply to James Cameron!!!! Carbon footprint, anyone?
  Berkeley's trying to figure out the tea party movement. Give up. Just like they've given up trying to figure out God. Heh.
  When you're anointed, it's okay to laugh at your guests when you disagree with their opinions, even if you are wrong, wrong, wrong.
  Did you know college administrators now outnumber faculty? Wow. That makes sense. Plus it must be the reason college costs so much, huh, cuz I bet all those administrators have some really important work to do to keep their jobs, right?
  Oh, and watch this. You HAVE to watch this smackdown. It's awesome.
