YES! Naked flight attendants go on strike, NAKED!
Did I perhaps, at some point mention that these gals were NAKED?
Spanish-based budget airline Air Comet went bust last December after the High Court in London ordered the company to stop using its planes and selling tickets.
Stewardesses employed by the firm decided on their naked protest after failing to get up to eight months of unpaid salaries.
More than 1,000 calendars featuring nine women in their flight caps, gloves and high heels have gone on sale for £13.
Michelle Malkin destoys Nostrilsaurus Waxman
Ah, here I was feeling my blood pressure rise over the Nanny Statist campaign against the greatnes of America., Then, I stopped by the Blogging Role Model’s place, and took great pleasure in watching her dismantle Henry “Nostrilsaurus” Waxman! Give him Hell Michelle!
My syndicated column this week puts Henry Waxman’s latest witch hunt against companies speaking out on the costs of Demcare in the larger context of his power-grabbing career as the Left’s chief inquisitor. Related good reads: Megan McArdle breaks down Waxman’s war on accounting. John Fund calls the upcoming Waxman hearing the first Demcare death panel. As I note below, more companies are reporting write downs as required by SEC rules, disclosure laws passed by Congress (and supported by Waxman), and generally accepted accounting practices. How many show trials does Waxman plan on holding?
More targets for the Witch Hunter: “Small businesses fret over details of health law.”
Great video and info from Heritage/The Foundry: Side Effects: Obamacare the Television Ad
And do not forget, remember Waxman in November too! He is unfit to serve, throw him out of office, retirement time for Nostrilsaurus!
Muck Fayor Bloomberg!
Moonbattery has news of Mayor Nanny Statist’s latest gun grabbing fantasies!
Anyone with the least respect for the America form of government is disgusted and enraged, but B. Hussein’s fellow authoritarians are delighted with the Chicago Way (now known as Hopey Change). New York’s nanny state dictator, not content to micromanage his subjects’ snacking habits, wants Chairman Zero to circumvent Congress to attack the Second Amendment.
After months of waiting in vain for gun control supporters in Congress to take aggressive action against semi-automatic firearms, gun shows and NRA-supported restrictions on the abuse of instant background check records and firearm trace information, New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg is urging President Obama to make 40 changes to federal gun law interpretation and enforcement on his own-without congressional approval. …
Titled “A Blueprint for Federal Action” and released only in response to requests under the Freedom of Information Act, the 51-page Bloomberg battle plan takes another cue from the military in calling for its mission to be carried out jointly by seven federal departments and agencies: the departments of State, Justice and Homeland Security, the FBI and Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (BATFE), the White House Office of Management and Budget and the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC). The first six agencies are wholly under President Obama’s command, while the CPSC is an independent agency headed by commissioners nominated by the president.
The “Blueprint for Federal Action,” a copy of which was obtained through a Freedom of Information Act request, presents 40 recommendations that would dramatically curtail firearms freedoms.
That Bloomberg got elected to any office truly makes my skin crawl. To think such men as Jefferson, Franklin, Madison, Washington and Mason did what they did, risked everything to form a nation founded upon God-given liberties. That nation, and those same liberties, today, are under assault from Nanny Statists like Bloomberg, Pelosi, Reid, Grayson, Obama, Biden, and the rest. That is truly sickening isn’t it? These fools are dead set on absolutely eradicating everything that made this nation great. remember in November my friends!
What the Hell is wrong with me?
Carol at No Sheeples is hosting a Rule 5 Sweater Puppy contest, and I am just too lazy to get involved for some reason. Maybe I have Rule 5 disorder or something? Anyway, head over there and check out the puppies.
Good luck to Michigan State and Butler in the first game Saturday
And best of luck to West Virginia, I hope they beat Duke like a rented mule! I mean compare the Duke gals with WVU’s.
Wyatt Earp explains “Good Naked” and “Bad Naked”
Yes, and Dallas recently, it was BAD naked!
The good news is that she got completely naked. The bad news is that the singer is Erykah Badu. Um . . . pass.
Erykah Badu shed her clothes as she walked along a Dallas, Texas, sidewalk until she was nude and then fell near where President Kennedy was assassinated.
The result was a controversial video, released Saturday, for her song “Window Seat,” which Badu said was “shot guerrilla style” with no crew and in one take March 17. Children could be seen nearby as Badu stripped in Dealey Plaza, a popular tourist spot since Kennedy’s 1963 assassination.
Badu will not face indecent exposure charges for shedding her clothes on the Dallas, Texas, sidewalk, a Dallas Police spokeswoman said.
Selective Outrage Syndrome strikes Leftists!
Oh, the Left is so outraged over the Sarah Palin’s “target map”, yet, they had no issue at all when Democrats did the same thing!
Sarah Palin’s graphic…
The NYT’s Paul Krugman “searched in vain” but couldn’t find anything comparable from the Dems.
Verum Serum decided to search in vain and he found this on the DNC website.
Well it sounds like a bit of S.O.S. Selective Outrage Syndrome to Dr. Gator!
Selective Outrage Syndrome-SOSEver take note of how “sensitive” Liberals are quick to become outraged over a certain things, like any criticism of a fellow Liberal? They rant about how insensitive and divisive it is. Yet, when a Conservative is attacked in the same way…. No outrage at all.
Nice Deb offers some advice for an Liberally Accepted target campaign. I love it!
The next time you are tempted to say “does a bear shit in the woods?”
Just say Is Charles Johnson an idiot? instead
For all you Lefties to ignore later……..
Is this instance when I give Obama credit for doing something right. Clifton has news that Obama is using his noggin in approving oil and gas exploration.
The New York Times: The Obama administration will approve significant oil and gas exploration off America’s coasts, including a possible sale two years from now of leases off Virginia’s coast, administration officials said Wednesday.
The move, which President Obama will announce Wednesday morning with Interior Secretary Ken Salazar at Andrews Air Force Base, ends a long-standing moratorium on oil and gas drilling along much of the East Coast, from Delaware to central Florida.
The new strategy, an administration official said, calls for also developing oil and gas exploration in the Eastern Gulf of Mexico, more than 125 miles from Florida’s coast; and in large areas in the Chukchi and Beaufort Seas in the Arctic Ocean, north of Alaska, after the government conducts detailed studies. …
The administration’s decision to open up large swaths of the Outer Continental Shelf, even as it keeps some key preserves off-limits, is likely to anger environmentalists and several key lawmakers who had pressed Obama to keep the moratorium in place. But oil and gas companies are sure to welcome the proposal.
This is good news. America should have been drilling offshore decades ago. Not drilling off America’s shores to please environmentalist was always a foolish policy. With so many nations drilling oil for us (and less responsibly too) we were only deluding ourselves into thinking we were saving the planet.the Obama administration is opening up vast areas of the coast for offshore drilling.

Iranian Nuclear Scientist Defects To U.S. In CIA Intelligence Coup – ABC News
An award-winning Iranian nuclear scientist, who disappeared last year under mysterious circumstances, has defected to the CIA and been resettled in the United States, according to people briefed on the operation by intelligence officials.
The officials were said to have termed the defection of the scientist, Shahram Amiri, “an intelligence coup” in the continuing CIA operation to spy on and undermine Iran’s nuclear program.
A spokesperson for the CIA declined to comment. In its declassified annual report to Congress, the CIA said, “Iran is keeping open the option to develop nuclear weapons though we do not know whether Tehran eventually will decide to produce nuclear weapons.”

Amiri, a nuclear physicist in his early 30s, went missing last June three days after arriving in Saudi Arabia on a pilgrimage, according to the Iranian government. He worked at Tehran’s Malek Ashtar University, which is closely connected to Iran’s Revolutionary Guard, according to the Associated Press.
“The significance of the coup will depend on how much the scientist knew in the compartmentalized Iranian nuclear program,” said former White House counter-terrorism official Richard Clarke, an ABC News consultant. “Just taking one scientist out of the program will not really disrupt it.”
Iran’s Foreign Minister, Manouchehr Mottaki, and other Iranian officials last year blamed the U.S. for “kidnapping” Amiri, but his whereabouts had remained a mystery until now.

Michelle Malkin has the information on how we can help out the family of a fallen hero
My stalwart friends at the American Legion have stepped up to raise funds to cover the legal expenses of fallen Marine Lance Cpl. Matthew Snyder’s family. As you all know, Snyder’s funeral was targeted by the evil miscreants of the bogus Westboro Baptist Church. The Snyders took the protesters to court. In October 2007, a jury awarded the Snyders $2.9 million in compensatory damages, $6 million in punitive damages for invasion of privacy and $2 million for causing emotional distress. It was thrown out on appeal by the Fourth Circuit. Federal judges have now ordered the family to pay $16,510 to ringleader Fred Phelps as they pursue a Supreme Court case. SCOTUS agreed earlier this month to hear the Snyders’ appeal.

The DaleyGator Cartoon of the Day
This one is via Washington Rebel where patience for fools like Sarah Brady has long since expired.
Is Joe Biden REALLY this stupid?
Now, I know that Liberals often define words very differently than real people do, and the word “fair” is a great example. Joe Biden illustrates my point very well.
“It’s a simple proposition to us: Everyone is entitled to adequate medical health care,” Biden says. “If you call that a ‘redistribution of income’ – well, so be it. I don’t call it that. I call it just being fair – giving the middle class taxpayers an even break that the wealthy have been getting.”
The top quintile of Americans earned 55.7% of pretax income and paid 69.3% of federal taxes in 2006, according to the most recent CBO data. But the Vice President isn’t buying the idea that the wealthiest are already paying their fair share, noting the top 1% of earners get 22% of all income made in the U.S.
“Taxes have been lowered for the wealthy considerably over the years,” he says. “It’s about time we get a little tax equity here.”
See what I mean? Biden calls punishing the more successful fair. He calls a graduated tax rate fair. I call it Socialistic, unfair, assbackwards, and un-American!
One more thing, if health care is a right, if we are entitled to it, then WHY should anyone pay for it? Do we pay for the right to speak, or worship as we choose? Now, I am not arguing that health care insurance is a right at all. All I am saying is, if the Liberals are serious about it being a right, then they ought to argue it ought to be free shouldn’t they? Sorry, I know I am asking for some intellectual consistency from the Left, and that is certainly never going to happen.
And you wonder why I call it MSNBS?
With complete tools like Ed Schultz dotting their prime time lineup, MSNBS is assured of continued ratings that are lower than Nancy Pelosi’s approval ratings. Yankee Phil highlights how absolutely pathetic Schultz is by posting a video of Schultz “debating” a Republican, who does a damned pathetic job in my view, of refuting Schultz’s softball points. I mean come on, there are so many examples of Leftist acts of hatred and intimidation, that anyone ought to be able to list a few.
I would dearly love to have Schultz pose these same questions to me. Ed would likely reduce Schultz to tears within five minutes. Of course Schultz does not possess the requisite stones to have ED or I on his show.
CONTEST! Daley Gator Now Judging Best Tea Party Candidates Slogan
GREETINGS AND SALUTATIONS fellow gun-toting, bible-thumping, expletive-spewing, racist, war-mongering, homophobic, right-wing extremists!
Today we embark on a quest for the ultimate campaign slogan to be adopted (potentially) by the plethora of political candidates who’ve embraced the tea party movement’s basic philosophy.
But just what is that philosophy – you may be asking with your head cocked slightly to one side – and who the hell are you, anyway?
Well dear friends, my name is Edward L. Daley, and I was a radical, activistic conservative long before the term ‘tea party’ was reintroduced into our political lexicon. Now please shut the hell up for a moment and allow me to enlighten you.
The philosophy in question incorporates – but is not limited to – the following elements:
* Reducing the size, authority and influence of government (both state and federal) generally.
* Repealing the atrocity that is ‘Obamacare’.
* Devising free market solutions to our nation’s economic problems.
* Limiting government (both state and federal) spending and taxation across the board via permanent balanced budget amendments.
* Securing our nation’s borders and enforcing current immigration laws.
* Imposing term limits upon all government officials (whether elected or appointed – state or federal).
* Eliminating all public-sector unions, congressional staffers (save for one per legislator), and executive-branch czarships.
* Banning public subsidies to any and all private institutions not contracted to undertake government projects.
* Dramatically increasing domestic energy production in every responsible manner possible.
* Implementing educational free-choice initiatives (e.g. home-schooling and education vouchers) on behalf of every citizen living below the poverty level.
* Generally expanding the individual rights and responsibilities of all Americans.
Alrighty then, so now you know the score, and now you may refrain from shutting up and begin deluging this humble blog with your brilliant and insightful slogans designed to enhance the overall favorability ratings of the various 2010 ‘tea party’ candidates we all support.
And seeing as I’m responsible for initiating this little endeavor, it seems only fitting that I take the first stab at creating a memorable and effective catch-phrase.
So here goes.
SLOGAN 1 – I got your “Hope & Change” hangin’, beeotch! – Edward L. Daley

Over 100 Released Gitmo Detainees Have Returned To Terrorism – Fox News
Prior to his release in December, Abdul Hafiz was Prisoner Number 1030 at Guantanamo Bay. Now, less than four months later, he’s back home in Afghanistan and working for the Taliban – just the latest of more than 100 released detainees who have returned to terrorism, according to the Pentagon.
Hafiz, suspected in the March 2003 kidnapping and murder of an International Red Cross worker, was the “Taliban head of all Madrassas… responsible for recruiting and sending young men to fight for the Taliban,” according to U.S. government memos. He was said to have maintained contacts for Mullah Mohammad Omar, the leader of the Taliban of Afghanistan, and to have admitted to participating in jihad against the Soviets.
But despite the list of charges against him, the U.S. government transferred Hafiz to his home country in December. And now, a senior U.S. official tells Fox News, he is back on the battlefield. According to a published report, Hafiz has been appointed by Mullah Omar to oversee ransom demands for kidnapping victims and to coordinate with nongovernment-aid organizations operating in the Taliban’s areas of influence.

That makes Hafiz just the latest addition to an increasingly long list of former Guantanamo detainees suspected to have returned to terror. The Pentagon, in an estimate issued in January, now believes that roughly 20 percent of the 560 detainees who were released from Guantanamo are back on the terror front lines.
The figure, which was echoed in a Feb. 1 letter from President Obama’s chief counterterrorism adviser, John Brennan, to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, is a nearly 50 percent increase from the Pentagon’s estimate of 14 percent last April, and nearly double the 11 percent estimate issued in January 2009.
And though the current estimate is higher than ever, it’s still a “low-ball” one, says Lt. Col. Jeff Addicott, a former Green Beret and judge advocate general and director of the Center for Terrorism Law at St. Mary’s University. “I’d say the figure is probably closer to 30 to 40 percent,” Addicott told FoxNews.com. “A lot of these folks go underground, they change their name, they hide out a little bit, they pop back up.”

300 Companies Push To Repeal Obamacare Provision – New York Times
An association representing 300 large corporations urged President Obama and Congress on Monday to repeal a provision of the health care overhaul that prompted AT&T and other companies to announce substantial charges for the current quarter.
The American Benefits Council said the provision – which limits tax deductions for companies with drug coverage for their retired employees – would deal a significant blow to corporate profits and discourage companies from hiring more workers.

Lawyers for the father of Marine Lance Cpl. Matthew Snyder, who died in Iraq and whose funeral was picketed by anti-gay protesters, say a court has ordered him to pay the protesters’ appeal costs.
On Friday, the Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit ordered that Albert Snyder of York, Pa., pay costs associated with Fred Phelps’ appeal. Phelps is the leader of the Westboro Baptist Church, which conducted protests at the funeral of Snyder’s son.

Dying Hospital Patient Phoned Switchboard Begging For Water After Nurses Said ‘No’ – Daily Mail
A patient desperate for a drink of water had to telephone the switchboard of the hospital he was being treated in to beg to see a doctor. Derek Sauter, 60, used his mobile phone to request medical attention after his pleas for help were ignored.
But when the doctor arrived he was turned away by ward nurse Caroline Lowe, who said Mr Sauter was ‘over-reacting’ and threatened to confiscate his phone. Eight hours later the grandfather-of-three, who was suffering with a chest infection, was dead.

CNN Poll: Big Shift On Closing Guantanamo Bay Facility – CNN
Support for closing the facility has dropped 12 points over the past 14 months, a CNN/Opinion Research Corporation survey indicates. Shortly before Obama’s inauguration, 51 percent of Americans said they thought the facility in Cuba should be closed.
Now that number is down to 39 percent, and six in ten believe the United States should continue to operate Guantanamo. The poll, released Sunday, suggests independent voters are contributing to the 12 point overall drop.

Poodle Adopts Orphaned Squirrels – WTSP
Three orphaned baby squirrels in Hicksboro, North Carolina, have found a new mama: a poodle named Pixie. The Daily Dispatch of Henderson says the squirrels lived in a tree that was cut down. Pixie’s owner, Gail Latta, tried to feed the squirrels with milk for newborn puppies and kittens, but that didn’t work.
Pixie had given birth to a litter of puppies a few months ago, so she jumped right in to clean and feed the squirrels herself. The squirrels are now five weeks old and have been taken to a federal animal rehabilitation specialist, who will eventually release them into the wild.

Feds: Woman Posed As FBI Agent, ‘Hired’ Neighbors – Yahoo News
Authorities say a Virginia woman pretended to be an FBI agent and conned her neighbors into taking jobs as her assistants. Twenty-nine-year-old Brenna Reilly of Arlington was indicted by a federal grand jury in Alexandria last week on a charge of impersonating an FBI agent.
According to a court affidavit, Reilly told neighbors in her apartment complex that she was the FBI’s director of forensics. Two of those neighbors say they agreed to work as Reilly’s assistant and put personal information such as their social security numbers on phony job applications.
Anti-Semitic nutcase who threatened Eric Cantor arrested
Michelle Malkin is back from her well-deserved vacation and blogging about the nut who issued death threats to Eric Cantor.
Just obtained this from the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Philadelphia:
Today, a two-count complaint and warrant was filed charging Norman Leboon with threatening to kill United States Congressman Eric Cantor and his family, and threatening to kill Congressman Eric Cantor, who is an official of the United States, announced United States Attorney Michael L. Levy and FBI Special Agent in Charge Jan Fedarcyk. As set forth in the affidavit to the complaint and warrant, in or about late March, 2010, Leboon created and then transmitted a YouTube video to Google over the internet, in which he threatened to kill Congressman Cantor and his family. No harm came to the Congressman or his family as a result of Leboon’s threats.
“The Department of Justice takes threats against government officials seriously, especially threats to kill or injure others,” said Levy. “Whether the reason for the threat is personal or political, threats are not protected by the First Amendment and are crimes.”
By the way, since the media is SOOOOOOO intent on telling everyone how dangerous that “Republican Rhetoric” is, I ask them if the fact that this loon was an Obama donor means that Obama’s “rhetoric” led to this? Just wondering.
Michelle wonders if Salon’s Joan Walsh, who accused Eric Cantor of making the threats up. will APOLOGIZE? Don’t hold your breath Michelle. Walsh, is just like the race baiting Je$$e Jackson and Al Sharpton. They stir up discontent, but NEVER stick around when their BS is called. When one lie is exposed they just tell another.
