Tonight, yet another Louisiana reality show premiered on Spike TV (Tuesdays, 9:30 Central Time), Rat B*stards. The premise of this show is sort of like Swamp People. The main difference is that on Swamp People, the hunters are chasing gators; on this program, the hunters are going after the enormous bayou rats, the nutria.
So is Lowell Turpin of Tennessee a Democrat? That’s a reasonable guess considering the awesome thing he is accused by police of doing and believing about his Facebook-loving girlfriend, a Mitt Romney supporter named Crystal Gray. Democrat voters in the last two presidential election cycles were lower educated than their Republican counterparts, and statistics also show they are also more prone to violent crime. Tea-party supporters and Republicans generally are more law-abiding and successful people.
Well, Mitt Romney has gotten the dander up of our former slave-masters across the pond. He made a foreign affairs gaffe by hinting that the Brits might not be quite ready in their preparation for the 2012 London Olympics games. Over-budget and with suspect security in which many of the guards don’t even speak English, David Cameron has assured the future leader of the free world that all is okay and he should mind his own business.
Winners are below the fold!
Mitt Romney was in Israel this weekend, in case you missed it. The presumptive Republican presidential nominee met with his old buddy, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to discuss a wide range of issues facing the Middle East. On Sunday, Romney also met with Palestinian Prime Minister Salam Fayyad. Romney spokesman Dan Senor assured reporters that Romney would support whatever decision Israel made about dealing with Iran and its pursuit of a nuclear weapon. During a joint appearance, Netanyahu did intimate that the current administration in the White House, namely Barack Obama, has failed to stop Iran with just diplomacy. Romney also hinted that he would consider moving the US embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, something Obama opposes.
Today marks just 100 days left until the November 2012 elections. Or, as I like to say, 100 days until the electoral rejection of Barack Obama. There is little doubt in my mind that Obama will lose to Mitt Romney. Not that I′m a fan of Mitt, but simply because the Obama administration has been such a historic disaster. The Number One issue on everyone′s mind is the economy, as usual, and under Obama, we are no better off now than we were four years ago. The housing market is still depressed. There is probably even more uncertainty and danger lurking within our financial system. Unemployment is still chronically high with no light at the end of the tunnel. On top of all of that, Obama has outspent every other president in history, adding more debt than all others combined. Especially given the latest Congressional Budget Office numbers on the cost of the Affordable Care Act, a.k.a. Obama-Care. If all of this were not bad enough, Obama and the Democrats in the Senate have failed to produce an annual federal budget in more than three years.
