…. or Fun SChwung…. or Feng Schweing or whatever the heck that is.

YOU KNOW. The placement of stuff in a room to make everything “flow.” So your spine will tingle with Buddhists’s Delight when you walk into a room.

Oh wait, I looked it up. It’s Feng shui. OK OK. Got it.

Apparently, the Brits DON’T got it. Go to this photo and take a look. It’s OK, it’s not a bad photo. It’s a picture of Michelle Obama, PBO, and the Queen of England in a room. I’d post the photo here, but I’m afraid I’ll get sued for “copyright infringement” if I do. So you’ll have to click the link yourself and go see. I’ll wait for ya….

Whadaya think? BWAHAHAHAHA!!!

Er, uh, I mean– THAT’S TERRIBLE! HORRIBLE! Michelle has had some pretty weird fashion ‘dos, but this one takes the cake. I think everyone was perhaps more concerned about how to remove dark circles than plant placement, eh?

Those Brits– did they do that on purpose? It seems pretty obvious that such a gigantic plant would make the poor lady look like Medusa. You can read the little story here. It’s almost like they are snickering under their scones…..

Poor President Obama. He misses “being anonymous.”

Doesn’t it just make ya wanna cry? Aw!!

Heck, PBO, we ALL miss being anonymous. How about ditching the National ID card, Google’s Eye in the Sky, Echelon, and government spies lurking in Facebook and Twitter, huh? ‘Cuz I sure miss being anonymous, too.

Well, this was a surprise coming from *another* celebrity. CNS News has a story about Garth Brooks talking about the Oval Office and how difficult the job must be for good ol’ PBO.

Wait wait wait!! Wait a second. “The system” did he say? Don’t you mean the U.S. Constitution, Mr. Brooks? Like, the entire LAW of the LAND?!

“Yeah, I think what President Obama is finding out is all that we want to do, the system kind of doesn’t allow the most powerful guy in the world to kind of do his job and I’m sure nobody’s more frustrated than him to complete those promises that he did and I think he’s trying his heart out. I love him to death and I fully support him and I just wish him well because it’s got to be hell in that office.”

No, it isn’t “all” that “we” want to do. I am kinda partial to the Constitution. We aren’t going to throw out the very founding documents that made this country great AND protect our freedoms just because you “love Obama” and Obama needs to “do his job.” It’s the Constitution that MAKES Obama president, hello!!! Some folks have heads too big to fit their ten gallon hats, I tell ya.

Folks, I’m sorry. I’ve been trying to be funny and not as crabby, but yow. Stories like this make me scairt. I need to go bury myself into seo moz again to lower my blood pressure…

Odyssey Dawn? That’s what President Obama’s [unconstitutional] military strikes into Libya are named? LOL. I dunno, it just sounds kind of funny, like a girl’s name.

You all know I usually try to avoid politics and current events on this blog (*snicker*) but I got this funny in my email and just HAVE to share.

Apparently the White House tossed out a number of perfectly good names before arriving at “Operation Odyssey Dawn”:

10.Operation Nine Months In The Senate Didn’t Prepare Me For This
9. Operation Organizing for Libya
8. Operation Double Standard
7. Operation FINE! I’ll Do Something
6. Operation Enduring Narcissism
5. Operation So That’s What the Red Button Does
4. Operation France Backed Me Into A Corner
3. Operation Start Without Me
2. Operation Unlike Bush Wars This One Is Justified Because Hey Look A Squirrel
1. Operation Aimless Fury

Hee hee! I especially like #1 and #2. SO apropos! Hahahahah!!!

OK, enough fooling around. Turn off those sweet samsung 3d tvs and get back to work, everyone!

How very, very insulting to citizens of the United States.

OUR president, President Barack Obama, has told people (according to Bill Kristol of the Weekly Standard and the New York Times) that “it would be so much easier to be the president of China.”

Well, Mr. Obama, GO RIGHT AHEAD. Good riddance! Don’t let the door hit you on the way out!

What an ingrate.

Unfortunately, PBO is the president of the U.S. As Kristol said, “Barack Obama ran for president of the United States. Maybe he should start behaving as one.”

I’ve been heartened by the news that the new Congress is going to work to repeal Obamacare. I’m a little discouraged that the Congress is going to repeal it “piece by piece.” I’m impatient to see this piece of cr*p repealed. I don’t want them to mince around, splitting hairs while time runs out. The Congress had BETTER get this done, I tell you what. According to CNBC, Rep. Fred Upton of Michigan says his main priority is repealing he blasted thing.

Obamacare is a touchy topic for a lot of people, I know that. But it is an illegal and immoral piece of legislation. Illegal because the federal government has no power to regulate American citizens’ health, not AT ALL. They are barred from doing so by the Constitution and the 10th Amendment. If the STATES want to enact health care, so be it, that’s legal. Many do, and many do not. But the feds have NO POWER. And grabbing for such power over our laws and over our bodies is illegal AND immoral. Just the fact that Obamacare gives the IRS police powers is absolutely terrifying; these people have a horrible track record when dealing with American citizens.

And just so you know, my state offers health insurance for poor people, disabled people, and people in certain health situations. I have been on this insurance. Because it is run by the state, it is a bloated, frustrating monster. God forbid such a system should enlarge into a federal entity. It’s how I feel about so many things– education, energy, real estate, banking– the federal government is TOO BIG, too monstrous, too controlling. If I want to buy eggs or a furnace or commercial pumps or a car, I want it to be between ME and the seller, not with the meddling hands of the feds controlling everything.

I’m afraid for this country, I am. The federal government is swallowing up so much. People do not seem to care about freedoms as long as they get their “bread and circuses.” It makes me very nervous.
