I rarely eat bacon, but when i do I pick through and find the ones with the least fat, usually Boar’s Head and that’s different. It’s cooked crispy and much of the fat cooks.

#1: Danny Williams is the (left-wing) Premier of Newfoundland, not the (Conservative) Prime Minister ( Stephen Harper). This misstatement is on a par with the insults the left has constantly assaulted Republican Presidents with for the last 50 years. Referring to Williams as PM is the same as calling the Governor of New Hampshire or Rhode Island “President of the US”.

#2: The procedure Mr. Williams went South for was developed in Canada.

#3: He owns a vacation home near where the procedure was done. Where would you rather recover from surgery, your house in Florida, or in a blizzard?

#4: He paid for this out of his own pocket, so why is this anyone’s business but his own?

Snippy, no. Insulted and fed up with intentional misinformation, “You betcha!”

I saw someone yesterday style him as PUSA. I thought that was appropriate.

Dude. I swear it wasn’t intentional. I didn’t know. I stand corrected. You could have corrected me the first time.

I agree with the choice of liquor but rather than the unfiltered US cigarettes, he should start puffing on the unfiltered Russian ones.

Just a friendly suggestion, mind you. Wouldn’t want him to get lung cancer or emphysema...would we? ;)

We went through 8 years of everything bad being Bush’s Fault, and no matter what he did, he got slammed for it, whether he did something (OMG Bush should NEVER have done that!) or not (OMG, Bush should DO something!), right down to his personal life and past mistakes.

It was fairly effective in turning him into the Emmanuel Goldstein of the decade, and is still used in dem political campaigns- Vote for me, I’m not Bush!

So, since it’s a proven technique and one accepted by and amplified by MSM and DNC, let’s copy the technique and return the favor.

Like pointing out that Obama giggled insanely when speaking about investments in the auto industry, causing the interviewer to ask if he was “punch drunk”. Heck no, he was drunk and high for the interview.

The technique undermined Bush, and as I said above, let’s return the favor, with interest and a bonus.

alcohol intake is only a problem if it was George W. Bush in his 20’s.

Calls to mind that great Johnny Hartman number. But in this case the love affair has been the diminshing one with the American voter:

End of a Love Affair

So I smoke just a little too much
And I drink just a little too much;
And the songs I request
Are not always the best
They're the ones where the trumpet blairs.
And I go at a maddening pace
To pretend that I'm not a disgrace,
But what else can you do at the end of a love affair?

Re: the 0bama/Karloff pics. The facial features are incredibly similar.

They both look evil in those pictues, but with Karloff, I'm sure it was all an act. With Obama, I'm not so sure.

The doctors may say that “a little wine” is good for the heart. But they don’t say what alcohol does to the brain and especially the frontal lobes where decisions are made!

"As is well known, when the Doc tells you to “moderate your alcohol intake” it’s just a polite way of telling you that you are a drunk."

Did I just read through this entire thread and this is the closest anyone has come to pointing out Bobo's father died of alcoholism?
