Karma's A Bitch

While in Europe, President George W. Bush infamously mispronounced his EU counterparts' names and claimed U.S. democracy was older than Europe's

Then, in a PR gesture for the cameras, he makes a state gift of a giant, mock-up button. The toy button was thought to be inscribed with the words (in Russian): "Reset," to symbolize a new beginning of relations with the Russians.

But the actual translation, as Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov explained (taking the oppurtunity to point out the knuckleheaded solecism in front of the cameras), was "Overcharge."

Okay, all of that was moronic.

But wait, that was the "elite" Hillary as Secretary of State, today.

Can you hear the howls of derision?

The Dow Jones Industrial Average has fallen faster under President Obama than under any new president in at least 90 years, according to a review conducted by Bloomberg.

Bloomberg reports that since Inauguration Day, the Dow has fallen 20 percent, leading at least one investor to dub this the "Obama bear market." The Dow has also dropped 31 percent since Election Day.

Despite a string of government bailout offers and Obama's advice earlier this week that Americans should be buying stock while shares are low, the Dow has continued to freefall.

Obi-One-Can-B.O. promised to return us to the stupendous prosperity of the Clinton Era (1992-2000).

Today, after a mere month in office, he miraculously delivered:

Back to 1997

Just days after suffering its worst February since 1933, the Dow plunged below the psychologically-important 7000 mark on Monday to its worst closing level since April 1997. The benchmark index, which is mired in its longest monthly losing streak since September 2002, suffered its worst first day of March trading ever, easily exceeding 1931's 2.78% decline. The broader S&P 500 briefly fell through the critical 700 level and ended at its worst level since at least October 1996.

Anonymous chided:

"Yeah - I'm sure Jim Morrison would luv you linking him to Coulter...I met that keyboardist for the Doors in Boston a few years ago. He would be both amused and appalled by your post."

And here's what Jim would say to that: "Lighten up, Ray. She's kinda cute."

In Praise Of Ann

(originally published June 13, 2006)

The mighty Greek Olympian goddess Pallas Athena sprang--fully armed-- from the very mind of Zeus.

She is the goddess of the Arts & Crafts.

And of Wisdom.

Yet she is also the warrior goddess, and could best her male counterpart--Ares, the very god of war himself-- in a fight, any day and anywhere, sending him off defeated and howling in short order.

She had no husband, yet stood tall, proud, and undaunted in the "Man's World" of Olympus, and won her own city in a contest of practical ingenuity against the mighty sea-god.

That is Ann Coulter, a women who--by her brains-- went to law school in the days when the field was very much dominated by males.

Standing on her own, she is a woman who intrepidly spoke Truth to vicious political power, unveiling the character of a sitting, liberal president known for his far-reaching, destructive vindictiveness--especially towards "trouble-making" women.

She is a woman who--on her own-- detoxified and refreshed an entire culture poisoned by liberalism, herself resetting the record straight by boldly slashing and overwriting decades of revisionism, as scribbled by entire armies of liberal liars.

She is a woman who, by reading books, by empirical observation, by her own busy hands and keystroking fingers, by her own talent, by the fire of her own creativity--again, by her brains-- became a self-made millionaire.

She is a woman who fearlessly speaks her mind.

She is a woman who emasculates men who try to bully her.

She chides other women for forsaking their femininity and betraying their womanhood.

She is a strong woman who fights back like a valkyrie against the seething, wailing hordes of liberal demons and harpies, who claw and gnash their teeth at her, trying to discredit and silence her, and destroy her.

And all along she is a woman who is unafraid, and laughs, because she knows.

She knows.

She dances in a ring of fire
and throws off the challenge with a shrug.

Jim Morrison

And the liberal feminists hate such a woman.

Go figure...
