America's Three Worst PresidentsAri KaufmanPresidents Day on Monday now celebrates all presidents, not just our greatest. That being the case, let's "celebrate," or at least recall, the three worst presidents in our country's otherwise proud history. More

Mike S. Adams: The Little Feminista Who Could
Dear Professor: I want to thank you for writing to express interest in suing your feminist boss for sexual harassment.

For Mencken followers, something quite interesting from Neal Boortz:

I THINK THIS REALLY DRIVES THE POINT HOME. WISH I HAD WRITTEN IT!
This alert came from a listeners. He was reading "The Bad Boy of Baltimore" a biography of H.L. Mencken by Marion Elizabeth Rodgers. On page 409 of that book he finds the following"
"By the mid-1930's, thanks to the New Deal, all that self-reliance had changed, prompting Mencken to declare: 'There is no genuine justice in any scheme of feeding and coddling the loafer whose only ponderable energies are devoted wholly to reproduction. Nine-tenths of the rights he bellows for are really privileges and he does nothing to deserve them.'

Despite the billions spent on an individual, 'he can be lifted transiently but always slips back again.' Thus, the New Deal had been 'the most stupendous digenetic enterprise ever undertaken by man.... We not only acquired a vast population of morons, we have inculcated all morons, old or young, with the doctrine that the decent and industrious people of the country are bound to support them for all time. The effects of that doctrine are bound to be disastrous soon or late.'When someone asked, "And what, Mr. Mencken, would you do about the unemployed?" He looked up with a bland expression. "We could start by taking away their vote," he said, deadpan. Mencken was not surprised when the majority disagreed. "There can be nothing even remotely approaching a rational solution of the fundamental national problems until we face them in a realistic spirit," he later reflected, and that was impossible so long as educated Americans remained responsive "to the Roosevelt buncombe."

"Buncombe," by the way, means either a county in North Carolina, a city in Illinois or another word for "nonsense."
Please ... cut and paste the Mencken quote. It is so very much more relevant to what's going on today than it was in Mencken's time. Send it to your friends ... send it far and wide. Post it on your blogs. Get it out there. Wonderful stuff.

PEPSI RUFFLES MUSLIM FEATHERS:
Pepsi decided that it wanted to host a photo contest. The only problem was that one of their rules got a lot of turbans in a wad ... the rule said that photos with people wearing a headscarf would not be accepted.
Associations in Turkey (which is 99% Muslim) have now called for a Pepsi boycott until the company issues a public apology. They are complaining that this is discrimination based on people's beliefs. So Pepsi decided to change the rule. It replaced "headscarf" with "religious, political [content] photos as well as those that may be misconceived." But the turbaned crowd were STILL in a wad. So Pepsi corrected the rules again. It announced that photos violating laws and general ethics would not be published.
Appeasement, appeasement, appeasement. What will upset the turbanistas next?

Nancy Pelosi is going to be upset to hear about this ... attacks in Baghdad have fallen by 80%.

Here's a government outrage. How much tax payer money was wasted on these moonbats in Berkeley protesting the Marine recruitment center?

Great Britain is watering down their education standards yet again by possibly dropping oral language tests because they are "too stressful" for the children. OMG ! We sure don't want to cause the little Brit Brats any stress, do we? Here's an idea. How about calling in grief counselors after ever test!
