Saturday, February 27th, 2010Algore Defrauds Nobel
Friday, October 12th, 2007Algore today defrauded the Nobel Peace Prize Filks into giving him the award. This is hardly a surprise in that they have given it to less recipients in the past.
ScrappleFace has the full story. Giving it the seriousness it deserves.
Although former Vice President Al Gore won the Nobel Peace Prize this week for his work as a global-warming performance artist, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled early today that President George Bush would receive the gold medal, the diploma and the $750,000.
Here is a take on it from Nobelprize.org that sounds more like a joke.
The Norwegian Nobel Committee has decided that the Nobel Peace Prize for 2007 is to be shared, in two equal parts, between the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and Albert Arnold (Al) Gore Jr. for their efforts to build up and disseminate greater knowledge about man-made climate change, and to lay the foundations for the measures that are needed to counteract such change.
Bizzaro-world indeed.
UPDATE: Damian Thompson of the Telegraph asks: What has Al Gore done for world peace?
So Al Gore is the joint winner of the Nobel Peace Prize. Admittedly, he has to share it with the United Nations’ climate change panel - but, even so, I think we need to declare an international smugness alert.
The former US Vice-President has already taken over from Michael Moore as the most sanctimonious lardbutt Yank on the planet. Can you imagine what he’ll be like now that the Norwegian Nobel committee has given him the prize?
Frank J. suggests a name change more appropriate of the award.
Dog Fighting Has Nothing On What Frank J. Is Doing
Thursday, August 30th, 2007I read this post from Frank J. earlier today and just about laughed my sell silly as is the case with most of the stuff he comes up with.
Thanks Frank, for making me laugh.
New Orleans: The Land Down Under
Thursday, August 30th, 2007This guy Ed called into the Neal Boortz Show today and said something about New Orleans that was very funny and somewhat true.
It went something like this:
New Orleans, The Land Down Under
The City is Under Sea Level
The Mayor is Under the Influence
and The Representatives are Under Indictment
This is not verbatim but you get the idea.
The Political Teen Is Great
Monday, January 23rd, 2006I am with Michelle Malkin, I also stopped watching SNL a long time ago.
The Political Teen has a great video: SNL Spoofs Nagin, Clinton, Jesse Jackson, And Anderson Cooper (VIDEO)
He also has one that proves John F’ing Kerry is an idiot: John Kerry Congratulated The Success Of al Qaeda Against Our Troops (VIDEO)
…and they continue to dig.
NY/DNC Times Offered Immunity
Wednesday, December 21st, 2005According to a trusted news media outlet: Frist Links ANWR Oil to NY Times Immunity Bill
After failing to block a Democrat filibuster of a Senate defense bill which carried a provision to allow oil drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist said he would employ a rare parliamentary maneuver to achieve passage for the ANWR measure.
Read the rest. This has to be an exclusive for Scrapple Face, because I have yet to see this on any other reliable news source. I am sure it will hit the rest of the media soon.
Bush In A Bubble
Monday, December 12th, 2005From BreitBart.com: Bush denies he lives in a ‘bubble’
Embattled US President George W. Bush denied that living in the White House “bubble” of security, policy advisers and political strategists had left him out of touch. “I feel like I’m getting some really good advice from very capable people and that people from all walks of life inform me and inform those who advise me,” he said. “I feel very comfortable that I’m very aware of what’s going on.”
I have to go with the President on this one, of all the photos and videos I have seen of the President, he does not seem to be in a bubble. I see no bubble.
Maybe it is just me.
UPDATE: If you would like a more serious take on this go read Mark A. Kilmer for some interesting history of the authors.
Just when you get out…
Wednesday, December 7th, 2005…they pull you back in.
From the AP:
JUNEAU, Alaska - It was only a small taste of freedom. David Mulligan, 21, served 25 days for drunken driving, and was released at 7 a.m. Tuesday. Authorities allege he stole a van three minutes later.
Clueless Headline of the Day

You just can not put anything past those folks at the AP.
Finally
Thursday, December 1st, 2005The democrats, moonbats and other knucle heads that do not get finally have a book created just for them. It is a book that may help them understand the Iraq Strategy.
I have my doubts though.

When You Fly - Pee Pee - A No No
Saturday, November 26th, 2005This is why I no longer take to the friendly skies.
Passenger Urinates In Aisle, Diverts Orlando Flight
CHARLOTTE, N.C. — An intoxicated passenger who lit a cigarette and urinated in the aisle led pilots to divert a United Airlines flight from Orlando to Washington, D.C., an airline spokeswoman said.
Actually to be sort of honest, it is not the real reason I don’t fly, even though it would be a good one. The reason I no longer fly is because I have no place to go.

The Dead not above the law down under
Saturday, October 22nd, 2005SYDNEY (Reuters) - Australian authorities have apologized to the family of an elderly man who was given a parking ticket while he lay dead in his car in a suburban shopping center.
The 71-year-old man, known to be seriously ill, went missing nine days ago and his body was found in his car in a shopping mall car park in a Melbourne suburb, police said.
So the next time in Aussie Land remember, don’t get caught parking dead.
Shepherds wanted — accountancy skills preferred
Tuesday, October 11th, 2005When I first read the headline above I thought, someone is doing something with counting dogs. This just goes to show how disconnected I have become from my country roots. They are looking for shepperds that are people to herd sheep.
Read it here. It is kinda neat.
Faux Balls and Penguin Poop
Saturday, October 8th, 2005WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The inventor of artificial testicles for dogs, Nigerian Internet scammers and a team that calculated the pressures created when penguins poop won Ig Nobel prizes for 2005 on Thursday.
The spoof prizes, awarded by the science humor magazine Annals of Improbable Research, are presented at a ceremony in Cambridge, Massachusetts, where the winners must try to explain their work in a minute or less.
While some awards clearly poke fun at current culture, others are meant to provoke debate about science, Annals editor Marc Abrahams said.
“Now in their fifteenth year, the Igs honor achievements that first make people laugh, and then make them think,” Abrahams said in a statement.
General Honore: “You are stuck on stupid”
Tuesday, September 20th, 2005Those are the 5 simple words that sang out around the inter-web today it seems.
Radio Blogger has the transcript.
The Political Teen has the video.
This is gonna be so cool, I have added it to my library of things to say.
As a statement:
-
“You are stuck on stupid.”
-
“You have to be stuck on stupid.”
-
“Get yourself unstuck from stupid.”
As a question:
- “Are you stuck on stupid?”
- “Excuse me sir, might you consider unsticking yourself from stupid?”
Democrats have a Plan
Sunday, September 11th, 2005ScrappleFace is all over it. Here is an excerpt of these dim witted Dem’s
“The disastrous mismanagement of relief operations in the wake of Hurricane Katrina made clear the need for federal government coordination of the federal government’s coordination of disaster relief,”
Over the last few years the Dem’s have never missed an opportunity to misidentify the problem and of course come to the absolute wrong solution. It is truly funny.
UPDATE: Wizbang has more on the Dem’s Plan as well.
