Deeply meaningless
Obama is:
“deeply troubled” by the situation in Iran.
“deeply saddened” by recruiter shooting
“deeply disappointed” by sentencing of American journalist in Iran to 8 years
“deeply concerned” about hurricane Gustav.
“deeply saddened” about troop deaths at U.S. Base In Iraq
“deeply interested” in strengthening ties with Pakistan.
PREVIOUS on our great orator president: Obama just wants to be very clear.

I don’t know how anyone gets lost when they leave the village. I think he’s just making excuses to not meet her.

Obviously
The question is “why do people not like vacationing near Russians?” It’s not because they’re loud, obnoxious, demanding, oh no, the answer, provided by the Russian newspaper Pravda: is because Russian women are so hot.

If this was a Bush spokesman, yada yada yada
White House spokesman can’t name any countries where single-payer healthcare system works.
He also ends up saying “some people in some countries like their healthcare system just like people in US do.” Deep. But if people in the US like their healthcare system, why is Obie trying to change it?

What the Brits call “pissing in your own tea”
Why would terrorists try to kill Jimmy Carter? He’s like their best friend!

Pointy
I once blogged how knives in Britain might be getting rounded edges because of British criminals being so stab-happy. I was somewhat mocked in the comment section, as if that would really happen! Well, it’s happened. Next up, getting rid of pesky knives altogether. Why tackle a crime problem when you can keep putting band-aids on the knife wound?
Quote of the Day
“There are those who say that if the Holocaust had not occurred, the state of Israel would never have been established. But I say that if the state of Israel would have been established earlier, the Holocaust would not have occurred. This tragic history of powerlessness explains why the Jewish people need a sovereign power of self-defence.”

Who is Gerald Walpin?
He’s the inspector general of AmeriCorps and he received a call from the White House that he either resign or be fired. Gosh, why?
Bottom line: The AmeriCorps IG accuses prominent Obama supporter of misusing AmeriCorps grant money. Prominent Obama supporter has to pay back more than $400,000 of that grant money. Obama fires AmeriCorps IG.
Nice.

Politicizing a tragedy
Jesse Walker nails the stupid leftist reaction to the Holocaust Museum shooting, namely that this is that “rightwing violence” the ridiculous DHS report predicted. Only those with a political agenda above all else could turn a Fox/Bush/Weekly Standard-hating lunatic into a “conservative” anyway.
Why would Chinese Muslims go to Bermuda?
Let me get this straight: we’re randomly dispersing Guantanamo prisoners throughout the world? Oh yeah, this will end well.

I live in a weird state
Blackberry rudeness may have been the cause of the NY State Senate coup this week.

You all speculated and it turns out, Nas probably did cheat on his 9-month pregnant wife Kelis and that is why they’re divorcing. She rails against cheaters on her twitter but also notes she recently had a date. In other news, there’s some guy out there dating a 9-month pregnant chick.
