If you get REALLY hungry late tonight…

7x7-burger

Check this burger out!

We all have dreams. Some dream of feeding all the starving people in the world. Some say, “F**k the starving people. I want all the meat for myself.”

Those people would probably love the idea of Steak ‘n Shake’s new 7×7 Steakburger.

Though the idea of a 7×7 cheeseburger isn’t new — In-N-Out, for one, has been willing to pile as many layers of patty and cheese onto a bun as you’re willing to request for as long as I can remember — the idea of a major chain putting such a burger in writing on a menu is raising some eyebrows.

But wait, the shock doesn’t end there: because according to Huffington Post, the 7×7 appears exclusively on Steak ‘n Shake’s new AllNighter Menu. Yup, you’re encouraged to eat this 1,330 tower of cheap dining excess exclusively between the hours of midnight and 6am.

Wait till Bloomberg sees this

Complete decadence indeed!

The Other McCain has a post about women in combat, a topic I admit I have not really thought about, so I will reserve comment on that. So why am I linking this post? Well, at the very end of the post, McCain notes the story of Sadie. A transgender girl of 11, who was a boy, until at age five, when he, or is it she, decided, on her or is it his own that he or she was really a girl, and transitioned

“Sadie was so proud of President Obama for including the gay community in his inaugural address on Monday; however, she felt like the trans community wasn’t included,” Sage, Sadie’s mother, told The Huffington Post on Tuesday. “That inspired her to write her own ‘speech.’”

The Trans Community? Boy, these Liberals do have a community for everything. This community, that community, segregation seems to be a big hit with the Left the way they love to divide everyone, but identity politics is just how they roll I guess. But, back to Sadie for  a minute. 

The speech, which began making the rounds on the Internet soon after the President spoke and was published in full on the TransGriot site, reads:

“The world would be a better place if everyone had the right to be themselves, including people who have a creative gender identity and expression. Transgender people are not allowed the freedom to do things everyone else does, like go to the doctor, go to school, get a job, and even make friends.

I am all for anyone, even a kid writing a letter to Obama, or any politician, so I have no issue with the letter. Or with Sadie. My issue would lie with Sadie’s parents, or whomever has indoctrinated her into believing she is no allowed to got to a doctor, or make friends, or get a job or get an education. Also, I would ask this. How does a five-year-old “decide” that they are the wrong gender? That seems very young to make such a decision, So the issue with me is not whether or not someone can be “trapped in the wrong body”, or whatever the PC term is for that these days, My issue is how this very young person already sounds like a die hard Leftist

Sadie socially transitioned from male to female in kindergarten. She was home schooled until this year and is now in fifth grade and attending public school. A vegan, she loves anything that “protects the environment,” as well as reading, swimming, basketball and texting her friends. She listens to Lady Gaga, Pink and Justin Bieber and wants to work for Green Peace when she grows up. She also wants to be a mom.

Though Sadie has been openly discriminated against, her mother says that she “isn’t shy or ashamed of who she is,” and adds, “I’m always ‘on’ when we go out because I never know when she’ll strike up a conversation with the person in front of her in line at Trader Joe’s. When she chats with people, she introduces herself as, ‘Hi, I’m Sadie, my favorite color is pink, I’m vegan, and I’m transgender. Who are you?’”

Don’t think this child has been coached to be that way? To be so put front with her eating habits, and that she is transgender? Or perhaps mommy dearest is embellishing these stories a bit, or a lot? Maybe mommy is living her activists wet dream out through Sadie? Sorry, but something seems askew with this story to me.

By the way, I would like to congratulate myself for writing an entire post about transgender issues WITHOUT going to the glaring Rachel Maddow/Chris Hayes question.

So, how big would the crater be if Michael Moore were driven off the fiscal cliff?

19 Nov

Just a thought I had when I read this

Via Newsbusters:

Schlockumentary filmmaker Michael Moore had some straight talk for Barack Obama Monday.

In a letter to the President published at the perilously liberal Huffington Post, Moore advised Obama to “DRIVE THE RICH RIGHT OFF THEIR FISCAL CLIFF” while putting an end to “the s***ting on the poor.”

After predictably gushing and fawning over the President’s victory earlier this month, Moore cautioned, “I would like to take a few minutes of your time to respectfully ask that your second term not resemble your first term.” [...]

As such, Moore made ten demands of the President with the first being that he “DRIVE THE RICH RIGHT OFF THEIR FISCAL CLIFF.”

Of course Moore is not being serious, he is simply looking to get some publicity and to keep the idiots who take him seriously believing that he actually gives a flip about them.

 

 

“Hating Breitbart” and the unbearable stench of Leftist fanaticism

21 Oct

RS McCain sums up the left in this post Acting like the assholes they are

Tonight my co-blogger Smitty is going to see the new Andrew Marcus documentary Hating Breitbart for the first time. I’ve seen it twice — at the world premiere at the Republican convention in Tampa and at the D.C. preview showing Oct. 8.

Last night at the first commercial showing of the film in D.C., a fanatical Breitbart-hater named Ryan Clayton was reportedly ejected from the theater for disruptive behavior.

The bozo actually appears in the film. He’s a familiar type on the Left, the posturing “activist” who plays hero by Standing Up to Right-Wing Evil:  “Admire my courageous truth-telling!”

Such people don’t realize what tedious stereotypes they are. If Ryan Clayton had a line of trademark fragrances, it would be called “Sanctimony.”

Breitbart told the truth about the Left, and they hate noting like they hate the truth

 

A new inductee to my Politically INcorrect Hall of Fame

7 Aug

One Allen West, you have to love his honesty, and candor! Buying Chick-fil-A for the ENTIRE Congressional Black Caucus? Bravo Col. West!

Rep. Allen West reportedly offended the entire Congressional Black Caucus when he delivered a selection of Chick-fil-A chicken and biscuits to the members’ weekly meeting. CBC Chairman Rep. Alcee Hastings (D-FL) told The Huffington Post that, despite the incident happening six months ago, it is still fresh in their minds and every member was offended.

Despite that this incident occurred months prior to the public dustup that followed Chick-fil-A’s CEO voicing his support for traditional marriage, Hastings told The Huffington Post that the members of the CBC were offended by West’s choosing that particular fast food chain to cater their meeting.

Hastings says that it is appropriate for each member of the CBC to buy lunch on a rotating basis for their weekly meeting, but West’s purchase was too “in your face” to be tolerable.

“We have fried chicken. And we have catfish and BBQ. We do not have watermelon, although sometimes people will have fruit. We serve a full course meal with collard greens. We have Jamaican beans and rice,” Hastings said. But West “sent Chick-fil-A with biscuits. Ok?”

“That was an ‘in your face.’ Every member of the Congressional Black Caucus that was there was offended,” he said.

So, let me understand, watermelon is RAAAAACIST? And biscuits too it seems. Would cornbread be OK? Good grief! Are other melons OK? Do Honeydews and cantalopes have to under go sensitivity training before being served? One more thing, why is Chick-fil-A’s fried chicken RAAAAACIST, and not other fried chicken?

One thing that bugs me about self-appointed civil rights activists is their double standards. They lie, claiming that BBQ, fried catfish, fried chicken, mustard, collard, or turnip greens, cornbread, etc. are “Soul” food, meaning “Black” food. Yet, when anyone mentions these foods and Black people in the same sentence, they are RAAAAACIST! I am calling BS! Sorry, these are SOUTHERN foods, enjoyed by Southerners of both races. I should know, I enjoyed all those great foods growing up. My grandparents cornbread and collards were legendary. And fried catfish? My grandad taught me to to catch, clean, and cook those tasty fish. And fried chicken? My Great-Aunt Flora, made the best fried chicken, and the best biscuits, and her black-eyed peas? MAN! Frankly her food was so good, I suspect she is now the executive chef in Heaven.

Too bad Alcee Hastings will never taste my Aunt Flora’s Heavenly cooking. I am afraid maybe Alcee will be going some “other” place, where is it hot. And where he will likely have to eat Chick-fil-A every meal!

UNCOVERED: NBC News Star Sharpton’s Racist, Homophobic Rants

13 Mar

If the video does not load click the link at the bottom of the post

Via Breitbart. The ugly face of racism is a foul thing, and the Left is far more guilty of this abhorrent behavior than the Right. Sharpton is nothing but a race pimp, yet the media fawns over him as if he is some sort of hero. H/T Weasel Zippers

Batshit Crazy Virus Strikes, Sigourney Weaver Hardest Hit

4 Jun

Via The Pirates Cove where William Teach exposes an ugly truth about the Sigourney Weavers of the world

Isn’t it funny how the methods to deal with anthropogenic global warming always seem to revolve around Someone Else Doing Something? Ms. Weaver, a wonderful actress, is over at the Huffington Post giving us A Secret Weapon for Fighting Climate Change: Empowering Women

Over the past month, I have been speaking to women in Canada and the American Midwest about a powerful force that discriminates against us. I am not talking about the glass ceiling or sexists bosses, although we all know those still exist. I am talking about climate change.

Ah, so Climate Change is sexist now? It is actively seeking to discriminate against women? Is that what Ms Weaver believes? Or is she simply being over dramatic to get people to believe her spiel? More importantly, can she get any nuttier in her claims?

If you ask people the tools we need to stop climate change, most talk about wind and solar energy, fuel efficient cars, and biofuels. But there is another solution that is not so widely known: empowering women.

Empowering women you say Sigourney? William Teach likes the sound of that, but points put that when nuts like Sigourney, and don’t you have to be a nut to be named Sigourney, talk about “empowering women” they actually mean kill babies.

Empowering women sounds like a good idea, especially since they are treated like 2nd class citizens in so many of the 3rd world sh*t holes, er, developing nations, around the world. Especially in the Muslim dominated ones. Sometimes, women are worth less than the farm animals, so, raising their stature, treating them as equals, like in the developed world, would be fantastic…..what’s that? That’s not what Sigourney is talking about?

Most women and girls want more control over how and when they build their families, and most development organizations support that aim. Now researchers also recognize that what is good for women is also good for the planet.

Two groundbreaking studies, one from the U.S. National Center for Atmospheric Research and one from the Futures Group, found that simply by meeting women’s existing needs for voluntary family planning, we could reduce carbon emissions by between 8 and 15 percent.

That is the equivalent of stopping all deforestation today.

And there you go, Sigourney Weaver is so deranged that she thinks killing unborn babies will reduce the sexist effects of non-existent global warming, I mean climate change. Good freaking grief!

Then from the Land of Czars, Obama brought forth a Propaganda Czar!

24 May

And their name was Jesse Lee!

The White House is stepping up its rapid response media operation, creating a communications position to respond to unfavorable stories on the Web, the Huffington Post reports.

HuffPo’s Sam Stein writes that Jesse Lee, a member of the Obama administration’s new media department, will take on a new role in replying — at times aggressively — to stories that paint the administration in a bad light.

In a preview of what his duties may be, Lee blasted Fox News commentator Glenn Beck in a White House blog post, accusing Beck of lying and engaging in a “partisan attack to boost ratings.”

Hmmm, I wonder how Jesse will handle the “Progressive” media types?

Lee is also expected to deal favorably with the “progressive media,” according to the memo.

Well, that comes as a shock now doesn’t it? I also wonder how soon he starts coming after bloggers?

Of course Howard Fineman IS an expert on dumbed down

It will still be damned ugly!

Oh Lord help this sincerely stupid woman!

11 Jan

The idiot, I refer to is Rep. Chellie Pingree, who writes this at the Huffington Post!

As I write this, the motivation behind the shooting of my friend Gabby Giffords and eleven others isn’t clear. We don’t know what prompted the shooter to show up at Gabby’s Congress on Your Corner at a Tucson grocery store with a semiautomatic pistol and the motivation to kill innocent people. We don’t know if it was unmitigated hatred and misdirected rage or paranoid delusion. We don’t know if was politics — aimed at Gabby’s courageous stands on health care and immigration. I suspect in the end, we’ll learn it was a combination of factors that led this young man to go on the rampage that shook the nation.

In a way, though, it doesn’t really matter what prompted this act of senseless violence. What really matters is that we do everything we can to prevent it from happening again. And the first thing we can do is to crank down the rhetoric a few notches.

I work in a world of words — words that inspire, words that persuade and, increasingly, words that can send the message that it is acceptable to hate. All of us — no matter our party affiliation or political persuasion — must accept this fact and take responsibility for the environment these words help create.

No one should think that one side or the other of the political spectrum is without blame. Whether it’s a conservative politician publishing a map with a bullseye on Gabby’s district or a liberal blogger saying Gabby is “dead to me,” too many have forgotten what it means to be able to disagree without being disagreeable.

A good place to start a more civil dialog would be for my Republican colleagues in the House to change the name of the bill they have introduced to repeal health care reform. The bill, titled the “Repeal the Job Killing Health Care Law Act,” was set to come up for a vote this week, but in the wake of Gabby’s shooting, it has been postponed at least until next week.

Oh dear, is this woman serious? Is she suffering from another, as yet undiagnosed Liberal Malady? Hypersensitivitis perhaps?? If she wishes to say that rhetoric needs “toning down” then perhaps she should start by talking to many of her fellow democrats!

The fact is that,  wants the Right to hush up, and roll over and allow Liberals to have their way. In Pingree’s mind, dissent is thPjngreee very highest form of patriotism, UNLESS, of course, it comes from the right. Then, it is violent vitriol and completely un-American, dangerous, and incites violence, and likely leads to ingrown toenails as well.

Da Tech Guy: Will the Left ever give up their Palin Derangement Syndrome?

13 Dec

Well, buddy, they will never give it up! They are Stuck on Stoopit!

You know there is a point when you just have to hang it up

The Associated Press transmitted a photo from Haiti of Palin captioned, “Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, center, has her hair done during a visit to a cholera treatment center set up by the NGO Samaritan’s Purse in Cabaret, Haiti, Saturday Dec. 11, 2010. Palin arrived Saturday in Haiti as part of a brief humanitarian mission. Dieu Nalio Chery / AP”

That photo and caption set off rabid attacks on Palin from the Huffington Post, the U.K.’s Daily Mail and, of course, Palingates.

The photo does indeed show Sarah Palin standing with her husband Todd as a woman whose face is obscured uses two hands to fix the hair on the right side of Palin’s head.

However, one can observe that the woman is white, with her brown hair pulled back in a ponytail, wearing a white shirt with a bulky scarf and dark pants.

In other photos from Saturday, Todd and Sarah Palin’s white, brunette, eldest daughter Bristol, who accompanied her parents on the trip to Haiti, is wearing the exact same clothing and ponytail as the “hair stylist” in the AP photo.

That’s right, what the Palin-hating AP and others fail to report is that the “hair stylist” is Bristol Palin.

Your Marxist Moron of the Day is………..

The most obnoxious woman on planet earth, AKA Arianna Huffington

Let the spin begin. Arianna Huffington used progressive logic to deny what’s patently obvious to anyone over the age of two. She responded to Dick Armey’s assertion that the people are at the point where we’re telling the government it’s time they start listening to us, that it’s time we get back to the foundational roots of this country. Arianna would have none of that. Oh no. (H/T Smitty)

Dick Armey is making the mistake that a lot of people are going to make on Tuesday night, which is over-interpreting the results. This victory by Republicans, which I fully expect — I fully expect them to take over the House — does not mean that the nation is rejecting Democrats and affirming Republicans. It means that they are rejecting the way our institutions are working, that they have deep mistrust of all establishment, that basically our system has not worked for them.

Spin like a top  Arianna, go ahead. This election is FIRST and FOREMOST about Americans rejecting government corruption, waste and fiscal insanity. And Arianna, let me enlighten you a bit, if that is possible, Democrats are far more corrupt, wasteful, and fiscally insane than Republicans. Arianna, you are not this stupid. Stupid yes, but no one is THIS stupid, well, OK there is Jimmy Carter and Meghan McCain, but no one else is THIS stupid. This election is more about rejecting the inanity of Liberalism than it is anything else and you know it.

Worlds most irritating woman speaks, our ears bleed

Arianna Huffington, who has redefined the meaning of GRATING, is skewered by Noel Sheppard of Newsbusters for her glaring ignorance of basic economics

KEITH OLBERMANN, HOST: Now let’s bring in Arianna Huffington, editor in chief, co-founder of the Huffington Post. Arianna, good evening.

ARIANNA HUFFINGTON: Good evening, Keith.

OLBERMANN: So, the GOP says renew the tax cuts for the richest two percent of Americans. That will free the richest two percent of Americans to start hiring everybody else, and the economy will be stimulated overnight and we’ll all have ice cream in the morning. Does Huffington Post hire more people when your personal tax rate changes?

HUFFINGTON: Well, actually, Huffington Post operates like most American businesses which is that our hiring practices have nothing to do with the income or the tax rate of the people who are running the business. And it’s the same everywhere. Whether we hire or not depends on demand. It depends on whether we’re getting enough advertising dollars.

So, her organization’s hiring decisions have nothing to do with the income of the people running the business. Instead, they depend on whether the publication is getting enough advertising dollars.

OH! So income DOES play a major role! This woman is so dingy she cannot even manage not to refute herself in a matter of seconds. I think Ms. Huffington has more than earned today’s Marxist Moron Award!
