Michael Ramirez skewers Nancy Pelosi‘s claim, that Tuesday was a big win for the far left:

UPDATE: Nancy would likely say that CNN won the ratings wars, too . . .

Update: Krauthammer’s Take

Well, [Obama] used a sports analogy. [So] let’s do a tally. He goes abroad, he denigrates America over and over again, he apologizes for everything from Hiroshima to everything that the Bush administration ever did, as a way to rebrand America, ingratiate himself and restore our leadership and what does he get?

Rio.

It was almost unimaginable that a president would actually go abroad if he didn’t have it wired. And look, this was the perfect audience for him, a collection of global Euro-trash who love all this anti-American stuff, and it didn’t even work on them.

I love it – anti-American Euro-trash.

American Bolshevik

un-American GothicAfter the 2006 State of the Union address given by President Bush, we commented about the Democratic Rebuttal and the emergence of the new Democratic leadership in Congress.

Again, in April of 2007, we posted about the Un-American Gothic with Reid and Pelosi as Grant Wood’s immortal characterization of middle America. We included the photoshop of Wood’s famous art in both posts.

I recently found this contribution from Michael Ramirez:

You saw it here first.

Über apologies, again, to Grant Wood.

Rubik’s Cube Sandwich

Found on Kini’s Hawaiian Website:

Rubik’s Cube Sandwich

We got a good laugh at this when we saw it. I guess the idea is to get all the cheddar, provolone, jack cheese, etc., in alignment in order to eat it. Right?

If, for some reason, you have no idea what a Rubik’s Cube is, visit Wikipedia, where the following description may be found:

The Rubik’s Cube is a 3-D mechanical puzzle invented in 1974 by Hungarian sculptor and professor of architecture Ernõ Rubik. Originally called the “Magic Cube”, the puzzle was licensed by Rubik to be sold by Ideal Toys in 1980 and won the German Game of the Year special award for Best Puzzle that year. As of January 2009, 350 million cubes have sold worldwide making it the world’s top-selling puzzle game. It is widely considered to be the world’s best-selling toy.

In a classic Rubik’s Cube, each of the six faces is covered by 9 stickers, among six solid colours (traditionally white, red, blue, orange, green, and yellow). A pivot mechanism enables each face to turn independently, thus mixing up the colours. For the puzzle to be solved, each face must be a solid colour. Similar puzzles have now been produced with various numbers of stickers, not all of them by Rubik. The original 3×3×3 version celebrated its twenty-fifth anniversary in 2005.

OK – So I was reading the RSS feeds today and I found a post at Robb Allen’s Sharp as a Marble entitled Basal Smear Harp. Hmm? I had to go take a look.

That was a mistake. For the next half-hour I was sucked into futzing around with the on-line anagram generator Robb referred me to.

But it paid a little dividend when I started typing in the names of some famous people:

  • Nancy Pelosi – Spacy Online
  • Harry Reid – Hairdryer
  • Joe Biden – I Need Job
  • Hillary Clinton – Carillon Thinly
  • Tim Geithner – Tiger Hit Men
  • Eric Holder – Clod Rehire
  • Rahm Emanuel – Ah, Elm Manure
  • Barney Frank – Fanny Barker
  • Patrick Leahy – Chalky Pirate
  • Janine Garofalo – A Ninja Rage Fool
  • Barack Obama – AAA Bomb Rack
