More Pakistani Deaths From US Missiles
Missiles fired from a suspected U.S. spy plane killed 10 people Friday in Pakistan just east of the Afghan border, security officials said, the first such strike since the inauguration of President Barrack Obama.
"Two
million people attended the inauguration, compared to less than 500,000 when
Bush was inaugurated four years ago. But that makes sense because four years
ago, you know, people had jobs to go to." --Jay Leno
Disturbing News
"I hope he fails." - Rush Limbaugh showing his jealously of Obama
A cowboy departs, but his shadow lingers With his head held high and a self-proclaimed sense of accomplishment, former President Bush has ridden off into the Texas sunset – presumably on his mountain bike, because this particular cowboy wasn’t famous for his equestrian ability. Rather, he was known for riding
roughshod over military intelligence, international diplomacy and the
Constitutional rights of his fellow citizens. The fallout from the Bush II
era should last for years, depending on the willingness of whistleblowers to
keep coming forward and of the Congress to investigate their charges. Not to
mention the swirling flush of the U.S. and global economy that Bush and his ilk
triggered. The arch-conservative political leadership and electorate will be striking out at the new Democratic administration and progressive causes in general like female grizzly bears protecting their young. Does anybody seriously believe that we have heard the last of hockey mom Sarah Palin? Does anyone think that the anti-abortion, anti-stem cell research, anti-evolution and pro-assault weapons crowd will ever submit to popular opinion or majority rule? And as for Democrats, is there any possibility that they ever will get their act together in order to rule effectively and honestly? After watching the appointment process follies for the new U.S. Senators from Illinois and New York during recent weeks, that seems unlikely.So here’s to another great eight years of political slapstick. AHNC would like to be around for the laughs.

The Technology Bush Left
If the Obama campaign represented a sleek, new iPhone kind of future, the first day of the Obama administration looked more like the rotary-dial past. ..."It is kind of like going from an Xbox to an Atari," Obama spokesman Bill Burton said of his new digs.
Last
night, while their parents were at the inaugural balls, Sasha and Malia Obama,
the kids, had their own little party at the White House. They held a scavenger
hunt for them and some other kids. And this is the best thing. At the end of the
scavenger hunt, they opened door and in a closet waiting for them were the Jonas
Brothers. True. I guess they did the same thing with the Bush twins back in
2000, only it was Motley Crue with a tray of Jell-O shots in the closet.-
