Nightly Ramble:Here Comes the Snow Jobs

Welcome, one and all to the most intense nightly read on the ‘sphere; Bitsblog’s Nightly Ramble.

We’re expecting a real whizbang of a blizzard around here.. they figure a foot before we’re done. Parts of our area is already at 110 inches of snow, and they’ll add over a foot before this goes away. More global warming for Al Gore to complain about, but we’ll get to that.

Lots going on, today. Let’s get it.

• OK, Blago did his “rehab the image” tour, yesterday. Not unexpected, but notice; the Dinosaur media’s been trying to ignore him.  There are those, mostly on the left, (And yes, that includes the press) who consider him and his games a distraction.  I thnk, however, Blogo is no distraction; He’s the game, now.  Not that he’s unique in any way… and that’s the point.  He represents the game the Democrats have been playing for a long time, now.  And it’s important to the entire nation. Look at how many people from the Obama administration are being hauled up in front of the grand jury. What Blago’s been doing is part and parcel of politics there.  If Obama and his people are squeaky clean, if they could have risen from that fetid sewer called Illinois Democrat party politics without getting crap all over themselves,  I’m beautiful, and 20 years old.
• I note Joe “Hokey Pokey” Biden commenting the other day about how we’re going to take added casualties in the middle east. Remember how the left used to whine and moan when Bush used to say things like that? No response form the left, this time.  I suppose that when a Democrat is in charge, you can ignore little things like soldiers dying. Right?
• I mentioned yesterday that Gore and his happy band of Gaia worshippers were going to bring their ” stop global warming” act to Capitol Hill sometime this week? Well, forget it; it’s been postponed on account of snow.  They are predicting several in down there,  I hear. Same storm will bring near on a foot to my area here.  I’ll leave it to you to fill in the punchline, but there should be no doubt that Gore has become a national joke. Sad part is the Democrats are taking this moron seriously.
• I doubt it, Billy.  Feeling stupid about it requires the ability to learn and alter one’s behavior based on past mistakes… and frankly, that assumes qualities not in historical evdience. Would they even be supporting him, much less putting tatoos of him on their body? That’s the working definition of ‘idiocy’ for the day.
• Glenn notes:
  

  PHILIP K. HOWARD: How Modern Law Makes Us Powerless. “But there’s a threshold problem for our new president. Americans don’t feel free to reach inside themselves and make a difference. The growth of litigation and regulation has injected a paralyzing uncertainty into everyday choices. All around us are warnings and legal risks.”

  Well, no kidding. That’s the over-relience on law and government that I’ve been talking about here, for… well, forever.

• Surber notes Obama’s approval ratings ahve already dropped by 15 points.  Like I said yesterday… Obama’s moving fast… a bit over 52 times as fast… he’s where Bill Clinton was after a full year… all inside a week. Ah, progress.
• I see Iceland has it’s first openly homosexual Prime Minister. First in the world, as I gather it. Since we know their government essentially collapsed a week or two back on the financial situation, one must assume that the frozen citizenry there must have figured there was no way she could screw things up worse.
•  Instant family? Sheesh. And she wants to breastfeed them all, I hear.
• Oh, come on. This annoys me.
