   Parody is offically dead!!!! As a skit on SNL, this was a great idea–Tina Fey did a great Palin, but as a real-life idea, this is insane.

   Watch Comedy Central to see what the lefties will do next.

    Really.

    The Obama campaign “doubled down” on the fraudulent COLB, made up a hard copy, got their allies at Annenberg to “verify” it, Dr. Fukino issued a highly nuanced statement that the MSM then misreported as her “verifying” the fraudulent COLB and “confirming Obama was born in Hawaii”, and…

    My Republican Senator believes it all!

    Seriously. Listening to a bunch of O’bots talk about him at my company Christmas party made me remember once again how Hitler came to power. They were saying things like, “He’s the best president of my lifetime,” and preemtively excusing him from any mistakes he could potentially make by blaming them squarely on Bush. It’s looney tunes.

    My comment to QVC:

    My wife and I have been shopping for a flat screen TV and had been considering purchasing one from your network. However, I recently learned that QVC will be broadcasting the inauguration of Obama. Like many other media outlets, your actions will be the first of its kind since you are not a news network. And it’s because you are a news network that we have stopped considering a purchase from you. Never has QVC bothered doing the same with other presidents, regardless of the hype behind this one. He and his staff have intentionally tried to place him in history as well as make comparisons to other great presidents on this nation. He is neither great or historical. Furthermore this statement, “Frankly, if we were not at the inauguration, we would feel like we were not doing our job,” by Doug Rose, shows the extreme bias of your network for someone who has accomplished nothing.

    As with the many American companies that received a bailout, I hope your network fails. I feel no need to be polite because of the politics of the left, which you will be promoting by broadcasting this dog-and-pony show. Only then will you appreciate the broad base of American consumers, such as myself, instead of spreading propoganda for a man who has accomplished absolutely nothing.

He hasn’t even taken office or done a thing yet and he’s being made out to be the greatest thing since sliced bread…what a crock…..this stuff is pretty much worthless now and if he fails miserably or is found out to be a usurper then it’ll be completely worthless….excuse me while I go puke now…lol

    From Young Frankenstein:

    Dr. Frankenstein (Gene Wilder): “Elevate me!”

    Personally, I’m waiting for the Obama condoms to hit the market — not that I’d use them for birth control or anything.

    Why does this bother anyone? It’s tacky, but so are people wearing sweatsuits at the mall. People still buy Elvis Presley “Collections” of songs they already own. Whatever. It’s still a 51% free country – I think.

    We can’t have it both ways. If people want to burn money on this stuff, that’s their business. Leave’em alone.

    I, for one, am happy to see someone in the USA making money these days… even if it is insanely tacky.

These things were on sale for $1.29 each!! The real funny part was that the jar was half-empty!!
