Friday Cat Blogging With Photoshop

From Album3

Tigger gets another close-up this week, with the Taj Mahal Hotel in Mumbai in the background. Like me, the boy is wondering how anyone can believe the nonsense spewing from the right wing noise machine/puke funnel re: the cost of Obama's trip to India in his, you know, official capacity as President of the United States.

And if they'll lie about that, what WON'T they lie about?

Have a good weekend...

Hey -- The Son of a Bitch Wants Less Government?

From Album3

Then the Obama administration should give him less government. Less government than he or his teatards could dream of.

I'm not an expert on the functionality of the feds, but the Executive Branch MUST have some way to give McConnell et al a lesson they'll never forget. Pull every goddamned federal dollar you can, from him, from Alaska, from every jurisdiction that claims to want "less government." Let's see just how much less they want.

And don't give them a nickel until they learn to behave.

The next two years are going to be interesting.

The Great Non-Recession

From Album3

Bob Herbert reminds us that a number of fat cats did just fine during the economic meltdown; better than ever in fact. And they're continuing to rake it in while presumably enjoying the free for all amongst us groundlings for the remaining crumbs.

Sigh. Will we ever learn?

Not So Sweet Tea

From Album3

Well, I'm sure everyone stopping by has seen this, but it doesn't make it any less depressing, no pun intended.

Still...tomorrow I'll vote, and watch the returns, hoping that maybe someone will plausibly be able to spin the phrase "exceeded expectations."
