Obama, the Next Jimmy Carter


Obama is proving to be as great a leader as Jimmy Carter. Afghanistan is turning into a steamy pile of horse crap. Obama may or may not have been in cahoots with Blago, which could prove an impeachable offense, though in my humble opinion, that won't happen. But either way, Blago has confirmed what I suspected for so long, Obama doesn't wear the pants in the family (or in any relationship really). As you might expect, all of these problems have led to a waning confidence in our Commander in Chief.
In other news, it appears that Al Gore is a horny school boy. So much so in fact, that it has caused him legal problems in the past.

Sir Paul McCartney says you and I are as bad as genocidal Nazis, because we don't believe in global warming. Fine, you've guilted me into it, global warming is real...

And if that doesn't make you want to toss your cookies, a school district in Massachusetts is making condoms available to all students, even those in elementary school. Those crazy kindergartners and their sex parties, right? Wrong.
