History appears to in the making these days. This morning Dennis Miller shared his thoughts:
“Omigod, this is so funny! It’s cool though…”
Those hilarious DNC employees.
Cock-up, beginning to end.
From “weeks of lies and cover stories washed away”
Given that this is from AP I’m surprised they didn’t have a picture of Romney at his press conference afterwards. You know, cause he was inflaming the situation, or something.
A little bit of Scratch
The PR wing of the Democratic Party.
They all know each other, they all go to each others parties, they meet for coffee and the conversation dictates the meme to sell to the rubes. Are they organized? No. Does it matter? No.
“We are the change we’ve been waiting for.”
Yeah, right.

Are the Left & Radical Islam About to Get a Divorce?
CBS Reporter Lara Logan recently delivered a very blunt speech about the dangers of Radical Islam. Long considered a “liberal”, one wonders if her words signal a forthcoming break from the Left’s long love affair with the “Religion of Peace” or is she about to be ostracized from the Leftist Group Think cocktail parties?

My, My, My Vingren
The risk My Vingren and the likes of her run is NOT that they will take a picture of the “wrong guy” and then he’ll give them something to really complain about. It’s that when they take a picture of the wrong guy and he gives them something to really complain about, none of the other men will care, let alone do anything about it.

As a Canadian
I find it kind of funny.
He also warned Americans against trying to slip across the border in the hopes of passing as Canadians: “It is very difficult, if not impossible, to pretend to like hockey.”
Time for a military blockade
Update: below
EDMONTON
A T-shirt being sold at a city clothing shop is insulting to military members across the country, says a former Edmonton soldier.
The men’s shirt, sold at HG2 Clothing in Southgate Mall, has sent ripples of frustration through the Edmonton’s large military community.
The shirt reads, “Join the army, learn a trade, butchering.”
Where was that again? Oh yeah, Edmonton’s HG2 Clothing in Southgate Mall.
Update: From Pete in the comments:
As a matter of our loyalty to the Military, Canadian or otherwise, my dad was a RECON soldier for the U.S.M.C. in Viet Nam. He has since written a book on PTSD and his personal struggles with the after effects of war. A quick read of his book will tell you that those of us related to him are WELL aware of the personal sacrifice made by those who fight for our freedom, as his personal and mental health are still very much an issue today. My wife’s grandfather fought for the Canadian Armed forces in WWII.
I take the idea that we at HG2 are non-supporters of the Military very seriously. I give thanks every day for those who fought so we can enjoy our freedom, which includes being able to own and operate a local business, where the local press makes at least the very minimal attempt to provide a piece of journalism that includes balance and a chance at the truth.
As a former member of the press (I was a reporter at the Calgary Sun for 2 years before getting into business for myself), the fact that this story was allowed to go to press without giving a local Alberta business at least the chance to respond is very disappointing. This would never have happened when I was with the Sun organization just over 5 years ago.
WE sincerely apologize to anyone that has been offended and we are here to have a conversation with anyone who may wish it.
Equality so thick…
Eating it Swedish style:
Annika Eriksson, a lunch lady at school in Falun, was told that her cooking is just too good.
Pupils at the school have become accustomed to feasting on newly baked bread and an assortment of 15 vegetables at lunchtime, but now the good times are over.
Spit out those vegetables, Lars:
The municipality has ordered Eriksson to bring it down a notch since other schools do not receive the same calibre of food – and that is “unfair”.
A fair solution:
From now on, the school’s vegetable buffet will be halved in size and Eriksson’s handmade loafs will be replaced with store-bought bread.
Great Big Whacking National News
In what only National Newswatch would ever deem a top-of-the-page national story, great big whacking anti-Conservative, Lib-supporting pollster Frank Graves advises the nation that Canada is heading toward a “great big whacking national unity crisis” that might only be averted by a Liberal party with Justin Trudeau at the helm:
Mr. Trudeau, should he win the federal Liberal leadership, could be the sole national or Quebec political figure who could legitimately champion his devotion to both Quebec and Canada should a unity crisis arrive, argued Mr. Graves.
Yes, the CBC’s go-to “neutral” pollster is clearly an impartial, detached non-partisan who doesn’t pick sides:
“….the simple fact is if you add to the mix a guy who is young, who appeals to this sort of frustrated younger Canada that’s been sitting on the sidelines, a guy who appeals to women and those with liberal values, who have been frustrated about the choices for some time, a guy who wants to establish the middle and the middle class – and by the way, do you really want Thomas Mulcair, clearly his supporters include a lot of separatists…

We can’t just kick him out, hon, not while all those neighbours on the lawn are so angry about the murders…
(A Sudanese war criminal) who was paid to slaughter civilians in Darfur will remain in the UK indefinitely because a British judge has ruled his life would be in danger if he returned to Sudan.
Yes, I know that he didn’t “distinguish between children, the elderly or women”, but he still has a right to life:
Immigration officials said that he was exempt from refugee status under the Geneva Convention, which allows the refusal of asylum for war criminals, but a judge overruled them, arguing the man’s life would be at risk if he was deported and that his human rights to life and protection against torture would be infringed if he went home.
The Vetting of the Zer…Obama begins
Trinity Church Members Reveal Obama Shocker! Many Americans still express frustration that much about Barack Obama remains a mystery as establishment media remain incurious about the Democratic president, while seemingly ready to dispatch crack investigative teams at a moment’s notice to probe into the personal lives of Republican figures. Largely ignored in 2008 was research by the Hillary Clinton campaign based on contacts developed with members of the church Obama attended for two decades. This is the two articles WND developed from months of in-person interviews with church members who have known Barack and Michelle Obama over many years. The sources requested that their identities not be published because they believe their disclosures would put their security at risk.

Following an American Liberal’s Economic Model to Its Logical End
Understand what gives a currency its value. It’s not because the government SAYS it has value. It’s because people (either here or abroad) can take our dollars and buy US-made goods with them. But if the US DOESN’T MAKE ANYTHING ANYBODY WANTS WHO IS GOING TO WANT TO BUY DOLLARS??? What are they going to buy?? An “English Degree?” 50 Shades of Gray? Are those the US-made goods we’re going to make to pay back our $16 trillion debt? If I did my math right, that’s 800 billion copies of 50 Shades of Gray. So every person on the planet needs to buy, what, roughly 133 copies of “50 Shades of Grey?” Are you kidding me?
