Liberalism: Why think when you can “feel”?

UN employees steal food meant for starving kids

The United Nations: more useless than Barney Frank at the Playboy Mansion.  More shameful, too.

Durbin cashed out stocks right before stock market plunge

When he’s not busy trashing our soldiers, Dick Durbin the Turban likes to spend his free time using insider information for personal gain.  You know, kinda like Gordon Gecko in Wall Street, only unlike Gecko, he operates above the law that applies to everyone else.  Details here, an excerpt of which follows:

As U.S. stock markets plummeted last September, the Senate’s No. 2 Democrat, Dick Durbin, sold more than $115,000 worth of stocks and mutual-fund shares and used much of the money to invest in Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway Inc.

The Illinois senator’s 2008 financial disclosure statement shows he sold mutual-fund shares worth $42,696 on Sept. 19, the day after then-Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson and Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke urged congressional leaders in a closed meeting to craft legislation to help financially troubled banks. The same day, he bought $43,562 worth of Berkshire Hathaway’s Class B stock, the disclosure shows.  …

Note to self: Call Durbin’s office from now on for stock tips.

Boy, it’s a good thing those Dems cleaned up that “culture of corruption” thingy, right?

Weekend round-up

The human gaffe-o-meter we’ve got for VP admits something we all knew: the “stimulus” isn’t working.  Gee, thanks, Joe.  Nothing quite like peeing away our kids’ futures over something that doesn’t work, huh?  How’s that Hopenchange workin’ for you now?

Ahmanutjob says he won the Iranian “election”.  We know it was rigged.  Pro-reform students say they’re screwed if Obama accepts the tainted election results that confirm Ahmanutjob’s victory.  Obama says “Hey, sucks for you, reformers!” by legitimizing vote fraud, like his mentor Jimmy “the Dhimmi” Carter would do.  Of course, considering his deep ties to ACORN, this should come as no surprise.

Oprompter fires an Inspector General who was investigating an Uhhh-bama ally, a move that should have generated tons of outrage due to its reeking of Chicago-style corruption and cronyism.  Firing an I.G. is rare, even more so than, oh, firing U.S. Attorneys who serve at the pleasure of the president.  Yet for some really weird reason, the left and the MSM (pardon the redundancy) made a lot of noise over the latter scenario when a Republican administration did it.  But nope…no liberal media bias!

Here is an outstanding column on the left’s and the MSM’s (it’s a redundant Monday, what can I say?) efforts to link abortionist George Tiller’s murderer to us pro-lifers.  I just want to know: Why is it “out of bounds” or “beyond the pale” to play “guilt by association” with Obama and guys he actually DID personally know and associate with (Wright, Ayers, Dohrn, Farrakahn), but it’s totally acceptable to play “guilt by association” with von Brunn and millions of people he didn’t know or who didn’t know him?  Nope…no liberal media bias!
