Racist? Maybe. Uncool? Definitely!

American Prospect has an awesome piece by Paul Waldman positing a simple theory: If I’m not racist, my disagreements with President Obama can only be explained by my envy of his coolness. Because I’m a square. Seriously.

When Barack Obama appeared on Late Night With Jimmy Fallon the other night, he walked on stage and gave Fallon a quick pound hug, that handshake/one-arm hug that we cool guys do these days to express a sentiment something like, “It is good to see you again, my friend; we know and like each other, but are not so intimate, nor have been apart so long, that a full two-arm hug is warranted.” When I watched it, the first thought that came into my head was, “Mitt Romney has never done that with another man in his life.”

He actually wrote and published that sycophantic crap. A cult of personality is scary enough. But I can brush off rabid Justin Beiber fans. These Obama worshipers are really getting desperate in their efforts to associate themselves with their Messiah (that’s Chris Matthews description of the President, not mine), ignore our Presidents issues and, instead, focus on the perceived shortcomings of his critics. Note, they don’t even attempt to argue from the strength of his accomplishments. Why do you suppose that is?

Secret Service misconduct in Colombia was an isolated incident, Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee just yesterday. However, this morning  the Washington Post calls that conclusion into question with their article, “Lawmaker confirms Secret Service investigating new misconduct allegations.” It almost gives the impression that our Federal leadership is either completely incompetent or lying right to our faces or both.

A disturbing video has surfaced out of Syria showing a rebel being buried alive as he is taunted by the troops shoveling dirt and rocks onto him.

If this video made it out, imagine what’s happened that we’ll never know about.
