Harry Potter & The Half-Blood President

A US Army reservist refused to be deployed to Afghanistan because he believes that Barack Obama's continuing refusal to prove his citizenship means he's not the legitimate Commander in Chief. So did the Army court martial the protestor? Throw him in jail? Make him peel potatoes? No...this week they simply revoked his orders and said they don't want to talk about it.

Even liberal bastion NPR has given up trying to prove that Obama is a citizen, and instead has adopted the editorial position "who cares where he was born?" Sure, what the hell - it's only the Constitution, right?

Continuing their indoctrination of the American public, the NY Times tells why it's critically important that the Obama administration starts rationing healthcare, and saying "no" to life-extending treatments for people who are old or (just guessing here) conservative.

Seriously, "dying with dignity" (and no expensive treatment) is already getting a PR spin to make it seem noble and even a patriotic duty.

Sotomayor Hearings

Noted political historian and diaper-model Al Franken declared Sonia Sotomayor "the most experienced Supreme Court Nominee in 100 years." Strong praise coming from the least experienced of 100 senators. Meanwhile, Sotomayor is fielding softball questions...unlike conservative Judge Clarence Thomas who (despite being a minority) was demonized by Democrats in his confirmation hearings and asked if he rented "Long Dong Silver" porn videos, or placed his pubic hair on a can of coke.

Secret Plan

After the deadliest terrorist assault in American history, Bush-era officials chose to go after the bad guys and, if possible, kill them. The mainstream media is now declaring that this was a bad thing, a terrible thing, a criminal thing because... because...it was secret! (Gasp!)

So Obama's team has pulled the plug on the plan. The CIA will not be going after Al Qaeda's top leaders, killing them, or even putting them in a carnival dunking booth. And the mainstream media is cheering this as good news because...because...well, because the mainstream media are increasingly anti-American assholes. Oops - sorry, news guys! Was that also supposed to be kept secret?

Tonight, President Barack Obama will take time out of his busy, busy, busy schedule to join the Fox broadcast booth for the all-stars baseball game. Hope n' Change wonders if he'll take the opportunity to criticize the wealthy bastards down on the field, who have accumulated so much money that everyone else has to suffer. And if he does, we hope that his Secret Service agents are really good with catcher's mitts...

Boxer Rebellion

Senator Barbara Boxer says that the precious last seconds are ticking down towards Apocalypse, and the only thing that will now placate an angry Mother Earth is a giant blood sacrifice of money and virgins. Coincidentally, and conveniently for the senator, neither of those things can be found in California.

Sunday Special Edition: Tony Snow

Today (Sunday), Fox News will be honoring Tony Snow throughout the day. Tony was, and is, a hero to us here at Hope n' Change. Somehow, he faced all of the bad news in the world - and the unthinkable bad news about his own health - with unfailing optimism, intelligence and good humor. There was nothing defeatist or cynical in his entire makeup, and hearing him speak always left us feeling a bit better about the world...perhaps only because guys like Tony were in it.

Most of us can never hope to accomplish even a fraction of what Tony Snow did; but in remembering his example and emulating his courage and goodwill to the best of our abilities, we'll all be the better for the effort.

Thank you, Tony. We miss you now, more than ever.

Here's a great video that showcases Tony's eloquence, optimism, and insight:

Red Green

Van Jones, Obama's new "Green Jobs Czar," has described himself as a radical, a communist, and an anarchist, who formed his activist political philosophy while bonding with "radicals of color" in prison. He is open about using the "green movement" as a means to accomplish a radical class restructuring of America.

Shouldn't some news outlet, somewhere, think this is a more important story than "Michael Jackson Still Dead?"
