How profoundly America has changed since January 2009.
I was pondering this the other night during the State of the Union address. Did you know that our elite military units like the Navy SEALs are now examples of America at its absolute finest? Why, wasnt it just a few years ago that Sen. Dick Durbin was comparing these very same troops to the Khmer Rouge and Joe Stalins Red Army?
What used to be Dick Cheneys hit squad is now a beacon of freedom.
But now of course the president is a Democrat. When Durbin spoke a Republican resided in the White House.
Remember when Theo Epstein snubbed Republican George W. Bush when the rest of the Red Sox went to the White House after the 2007 World Series? Nobody said boo. Now Bruins goalie Tim Thomas does the same thing to our PC president and hey, somebody get a rope!
Since January 2009, natural disasters are no longer the personal fault of the president.
Now that Obama is president, Gen. Betrayus is once again Gen. Petraeus, the greatest American military genius since MacArthur, no make that U.S. Grant.
George W. Bush played 30 rounds of golf in eight years and it was dereliction of duty. Obamas played 80 in three years and its a well-deserved rest from his terrible burden of world leadership.
On Jan. 20, 2009, all the homeless people went home. Inflation ended that same day. No longer do dying Americans have to travel to Canada to buy affordable prescription drugs.
The Tea Party violent rhetoric. Occupy Wall Street and the publicly defecating hippies in the finest tradition of our Founding Fathers.
Bush mispronounces nuclear idiot. Obama butchers corpsman misspoke.
Raising the debt ceiling under Bush the worst kind of fiscal irresponsibility. Raising the debt ceiling under Obama a valiant effort by our young president to save the world economy.
McDonalds jobs under Bush burger flipping. McDonalds jobs under Obama entry-level jobs with one of Americas noblest public corporations.
Unemployment rate of 4.5 percent under Bush jobless recovery. Unemployment rate of 8.5 percent under Obama the new normal.
The Patriot Act under Bush incipient fascism. The Patriot Act under Obama yawn.
Words and phrases you havent heard since January 2009: no blood for oil ... Cindy Sheehan ... not one more dime ... quagmire ... atrocities ... candlelight vigils ... not on our watch ... waterboarding ... Abu Ghraib...
Being a Democrat means never having to say youre sorry.

They all get their marching orders from MoveOn.org.
If it isn’t fresh, it isn’t Legal. Howie namedrops Roger Berkowitz into his new book Hard Knocks. Jack Reilly meets Herald reporter Katie Bemis at Legal and they get to eat for free...because Katie (a trust fund kid) knows Roger B.

Rumplestiltskin in the story produced real gold from straw. Not so the guardians of the printing presses . . .
I’m not an advocate for violence but it almost seems like the times are ripening for vigilante hit-squads that take it upon themselves to return our country to that which was created for us for our founding fathers.
For someone who’s not an advocate of violence you are periously close to advocating violence. Democracy is a terrible form of government. It’s just less terrible than every other form that’s ever been tried.
Shooting water up foreign, mass murdesr nose (waterboarding) bad. Killing U.S. Citizens and their families, under order of secret panel, good.
finally, a piece from Howie that makes sense to those outside Boston...
he CAN write for national consumption.
I’m merely making a prediction of what Jefferson suggested long ago: “The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.”
