Let's dive in:



BOOM! (the sound a TRUTH BOMB makes when detonated)

Have a great weekend, everyone.

Uncle Al Done Lost His Mind

Everyone knows Uncle Al is gonna bring it. The crazy, that is...



Oh Uncle Al, no one says it better than you, "If we gonna be crazy, let's go all the way crazy."

Done. 

Pelosi Needs to Get Out of the Heat

Is this a record for lies told in 52 seconds?  Did Barry and Pelosi make some kind of lying wager?



Got it?  She's obviously going with the second most used definition of the word to make her point. 

"They are laissez, lassez, laissez, laissez, laissez, laissez, laissez faire. No supervision. No regulation. No discipline. And to those who would exploit the system for privatizing the gain and nationalizing the risk in our financial transactions. Laissez, laissez, laissez faire in terms of they don’t want any initiatives for clean air, clean water, food safety, public safety, public education, public housing, public transportation, public health, Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security."

No clean air?  No food safety?  No, no, no...

She's got her knickers in a knot and she spewing liberal garbage. Don't let the SAT Word of the Day fool you.

Tuesday Film!

Good satire makes me smile and nod in agreement:



"Stay ignorant, my friends."

Man, if ever there was a catch-phrase for a campaign.

Is We in Communist Russia, Auntie Em?!

Let me start out by saying, "I am NOT shitting you."  What you are about to see, with your own eyes, is the truth of how desperate things are getting in the WH.

I give you the Obama event registry.

Back?  Feeling like you're about to be robbed?

When I first saw this all I could do was shake my head in pity.  Barry wants your gravy boats too?  He's not happy that American's net worth has dropped, on average, 35%, but now he also wants your wedding gifts and your birfday presents?

What's next, your first born?!

As for me and my house, we like, nay look forward to, our special events and the funtime presents they bring. We're keeping our precious gravy boats.

If Barry had done more leading and less bullying/golfing/dictating, my guess is we'd be looking at four more years of his reign.  But he didn't.  And now that he's in a pickle, what's really happening is he's blaming you.  You didn't give enough.  You didn't care enough.  You are a greedy pig not willing handing over what he views as his rightful loot your gifts.

Shame on you.  SHAME!

Oh, and while he's ratcheting up the blame those who voted and hoped in his change last go around, but not so much now...here's some complimentary sunglasses.

Seeing the light after so much darkness can be a little unsettling.

Short and accurate and to the point.



Just like we like our facts.

Have a great weekend, everyone.

Fast and Furious Made Simple

Does all the talk about Fast and Furious/Obama/Holder make you wonder what the hubbub is, bub?

Wonder no more.



Got it?  Makes you wonder why Washington doesn't.

So Much LOL!

Al gots the floor!  Listen up mah babies, cause your weird political activist, Uncle AS has a PSA for all you RACISTS (you know who you are) out there:



Oh, Sharpie. Just because Holder is black doesn't mean he's untouchable.  We understand that's what you think, but golly gee, basing an opinion on a man's color, on color alone, seems, well, RACIST misguided.

Did you remember to take your meds this morning?  No?  That's what we thought....

Barry's Epic FAIL on Economy

I didn't know whether to file this under "Douche of the Day" or "WTF" or "You Lie!"  Barry is that deluded in his efforts to make you believe that this economy, the same one robbing you of your wealth, is recovering/ed.

Witness:



You'd think three years in office would make him a more nuanced liar.  He's trying so dadgum hard to convince you of the horse-shit that's coming out of his mouth, he ignores that he's insulting your intelligence in the process.

But, you didn't forget, did you?

Detour From Politics: Andrew Price Author Fun!

Today we take a reprieve from the political world, and focus instead on political blogger, friend, and new author, Andrew Price.

~clappityclapclap~

Andrew is a political blogger and co-founder of the blog Commentarama.  You know them well if you've spent any time here, as they are one of my favorite site's to link.  The writer's there are intelligent, funny and offer way more political meat than you'll ever get here (not to mention the sharp-as-a-whip comments via plugged-in readers).

When we first started-out blogging about politics, I liked to tell Commentarama that their style was akin to older wiser brothers juxtaposed to my stone-throwing, finger-giving, naughty-word flaming little sister.

I still can't believe they let me hang out with them.

Well, Andrew has now added author to his list of achievements and has kindly agreed to an interview.  He has written two books, but for the sake of this post, we'll focus on Without a Hitch.

Here's the blurb and cover art:

What happens when an innocent man gets framed for the perfect crime?  What if he’s not that innocent?

Drawn from the author’s sixteen years as a litigator in various state and federal courts, "Without a Hitch" is a high stakes courtroom drama which plays out amidst the desperation and uncertainty of a plan gone horribly wrong, as Washington, D.C. attorney Alexander Corbin struggles with his conscience, his panicky co-conspirators and not getting caught.

Did I mention that this book is FREE on Tuesday for Kindle, TOMORROW, June 19th, over at Amazon.

It's how he rolls.

Alrighty.  Get some popcorn.  Pour some vodka (what?!). Grab a chair.  It's interview time!

I give you Andrew Price...

1) You're a busy guy.  Was writing a book(s) always the plan, or was it born from your everyday work?

I’d always wanted to see if I could write a book.  I’ve had tons of ideas my whole life, but never actually put them together into a complete book.  So this began as a bit of a challenge for myself.  Then, it hit me one day that I was getting sick of books and movies which cheat the reader/viewer to make the book/film work.  That’s when I decided to do this seriously.  I wanted to see, first, if I could write a book, and secondly, if I could do it without cheating.  So I drew up a set of rules and then set out to see if I could do it.  (The rules I used are here:  http://andrewpricewithoutahitch.blogspot.com/p/rules-for-book.html.)

2) What was your favorite part about the writing process? 

The whole idea of creating the people in the book actually.  When you get into it, the characters become real people and it is fun to see where they will head next or what they will do next.

3) What was the worst?

Just the sheer amount of editing.  It took me about six months to write Without A Hitch and over a year to edit it.

4) Did the storyline surprise you in any way?

Yes it did.  One of my rules was to make sure the characters acted the way they really would rather than use them as plot devices.  I found that actually ended up changing the plot because the characters simply wouldn’t do certain things.  Moreover, when I began, I wasn’t sure how the book would finally resolve itself.  I knew where it would end up, but I didn’t know what choice the main character would make.  It wasn’t until I got very near the ending that it finally became clear how the main character would act.  And that was actually a pretty surprising moment for me.

5) Who do you read?  Shades of Grey, much?

I’ve been working my way through the classics actually, so people like Orwell, Rand, Shakespeare, Hemingway, etc.

6) Lawyer, blogger, author...What's your hidden talent or skill we'd never guess you had?

I’m an excellent cook. :)

7) If your books take off, will you leave us all behind in your dust?  As in, leave the bloggy world?

Yep, I’m outta here suckers!  No, of course not.  I love blogging.  Also, I’m a firm believer in taking your friends with you.

8) Who is your fantasy presidential team this year?

Darth Vader/Dr. Evil 2012

9) What are your must read blogs, political or otherwise?  (I will take mine out of it, so not to embarrass myself.)

I try to visit yours, BH, and Threedonia every day. I check out some sports blogs and, of course, Drudge.

(edit: mine?  really?  along with The King, BH?  that made me laugh at the absurdity!)  

10) Anything you'd like to ask yourself and then answer?  (third-person shenanigans is one of my favorite things!)

I got nothing.

Dang.  That last one disappointed me a little.  And, did y'all notice how he totally ignored my stick-poking in #5?  Andrew, your fans have a neeeed to know for the stalker fan page they're building.

Seriously though, thanks for playing along, Andrew!  Everyone here at Not A Wonk (that's me!) wishes you a made-for-Hollywood success story. You deserve it, bud.

To all my readers, don't forget to grab your FREE copy tomorrow, and after you're WOWed by the book, if you are so inclined, go support an artist by leaving a comment on the Amazon site.

Thanks, mah babies.

Go get 'em, Andrew!

Friday Film O'Fun!

YouTube has a slew of "Shit ___s Say".  If you have ever seen any of those, you will appreciate this one.

Shit Liberal's Say:



Got any you'd like to add?

How about, "Conservatives should stop blaming Obama for everything, when everyone knows it's all Bush's fault."

Barry Has This...Or Not

PEOPLE!  CALM YOUR ASSES DOWN! 

If Barry sez the private sector is doing fine, we IS doing fine.



He is rarely wrong. HEY, YOU!  IN THE CORNER!  STOP LAUGHING! 

Of course we know what this means: get ready to be pick-pocketed for the sake of union and government workers who are clearly in distress and having a hard time surviving on those fat pensions and healthcare packages the rest of us are paying for.

Wisconsin Sore Loser Gives Me A Laugh

The day after the recall efforts in Wisconsin, one particular protestor has a moment sharing her unhappiness with the rest of the world (go to the 44 second mark):



Yes, my dear, IT'S OVER.

Deal.

Jon Stewart Gets It Right

More Wisconsin WIN fun.

I love someone who can make me laugh, no matter what side of the political aisle they stand. (hat tip: grumpy old man)





Oh, Jon!

Attacks on Conservative Bloggers

Every day brings more disturbing news from the extreme left in this country.  You know, the same people that have asked us on the right for a nicer tone when we discuss politics, after they spent years exercising their free speech Bush-bashing.  The same ones who told us to STFU after Barry was elected when we disagreed with the direction we saw him taking the country.  The same ones who have used union thugs to intimidate and threaten those who oppose their positions.  The same ones who Occupy and defecate on police vehicles.  The same ones who have called for Walker's death following Wisconsin's recall results last week.  Those folks.

Well here's one of the most disturbing, not to mention illegal, tactics they are taking to shut down their fierce opposition: Blogger SWAT-ings.

What is a blogger SWAT-ing?

This from a letter Congressman Kenny Marchant (TX-24) sent to Eric Holder explains the level to which the left will stoop:

It has been brought to my attention that many of these harassing actions are dangerous hoaxes popularly known as “SWAT-ting.” SWAT-ting involves someone contacting the police with a false report of a violent incident at the home of the target. It is further believed that perpetrators are using advanced telecommunications technology to mask the real location of their contact with police. Local police then respond to the target’s home under the false pretense that the call originated inside of the home which also hides the true identity of the caller. Victims are left with a significant police presence at their home which is not only embarrassing but could potentially be dangerous. I am asking the Department of Justice to immediately investigate this alarming trend of SWAT-tings.

Asshats.

You can read the entire letter Marchant sent HERE.

Those of us who have been blogging for conservatism since Barry took office have known that the extreme left would not play nice, but they have entered a new realm of sickness that even we couldn't have predicted.

Their mommas must be so proud.

One more thing, don't miss Andrew's piece on this topic: Commentarama Gets It Right....Again


EDIT: After I wrote this entry over the weekend, more developments came to light.

CNN plays the 911 call


70 House members call for investigation of SWAT-ing

She wants to know if we're serious.  I know, it's almost cruel to make you listen to her self-righteous stupidity, but here we go...



Ms. Pelosi, in answer to your douchiness: OH, HELL YES!

The floor is now open for your self-righteous rebuttal, Nanc.

Obama + Solyndra = FAIL

Barry likes to stick it to you. The bigger, the better.

Exhibit A:



He's a failure in so many ways, and the empty Solyndra building, the folks who lost their jobs and those who invested and lost because of his deceit stand as testament to his utter contempt for your welfare.

He has got to go.
