If you think I'm going to talk about the Super Bowl, you would be wrong. I could care less about a bunch of guys beating each others brains out at an over-priced sporting event. I will not, however, criticize those that do enter into the Super Bowl Sunday festivities. An elitist attitude of "I don't watch much TV" or "I hate spectator sports" is not something that I will ever do. For those of you that do indulge - have fun and save some chips and dip for me...
Or...if you're planning heartier fare, now would be the perfect time to throw together some of my famous (in my own mind) chicken roll-ups. Head over to Adrienne dePitera for the complete instructions. You could even cut them up smaller and serve as an appetizer.
The "Creepy" Award
Am I the only person that found Obama's reference to the lady wanting to be buried in an Obama t-shirt creepy? What was creepiest of all was the laughter from the audience when he related this story. Gateway Pundit has a video - warning: don't eat before watching. The Washington Examiner thought is was strange so maybe I'm not alone.
The "How to Raise a Really Stupid Kid" Award
The educational system in this country is broken. It is broken because of government interference. Privatize the schools and let the cream rise to the top. There is a reason homeschooled kids do better than kids locked up in our government schools. Take a gander at what Robert Weissberg has to say in Obama and Education: Pork You Can Believe In. The Blog Prof adds more with Fourth Grader Punished for 2 inch Lego Gun That's your tax dollars at work...
The "It's Not Dead Until I See a Stake Through It's Heart" Award
Do not believe for one itty bitty moment that ObamaCare is gone. It's just creeping around under the dark of night where you'll find the rest of the vampires. Karl wrote a fine piece (promoted from the Green Room to Hot Air main page), and also seems to think we need silver bullets and stakes.
The "What Exactly is the Problem" Award
An obviously deranged millionaire mother, Gigi Jordan, fed her 8 year old enough pills to kill him. She failed in her attempt to kill herself. Here's the question for all you pro-choice folks out there. Why is it ok to kill a baby in the womb but not ok to kill him when he's 8 years old? Really! Why?? That poor child...pray for him.
The "World Doesn't Revolve Around Me" Award
Those were words I heard often while growing up. It ranked right up there with, "life isn't fair." Dr. Sanity receives this award for her fine piece The 21st Century PC Entitlement Philosophy.
The "Chutzpah" Award
Good Lord in Heaven - what will Obama think of next? Doug Ross brings us Won't You Please Help Us Grow Our Federal Bureaucracies? Obama wants you to receive your tax refunds in Savings Bonds. My advice? Bwaaaaahaaaaahaaaaa...
I would really like to see my buddy DaTechGuy attend CPAC. Mainly 'cause I'm hoping for some timely phone calls. I've had the pleasure of speaking with him several times and I can testify to the fact that he is the real deal.
Plus, he will be keeping us all up to date on what's going on. So here's the deal - he needs a bit more money. So even if you only have a dollar or two, head over and help him reach his goal. He only has 9 days to raise the needed funds. It's folks like DaTechGuy and Stacy McCain, who are willing to get in the trenches and bring us the news, and we should support them. Let's help them do their job.
The "You're Doing a Super Great Job" Award
PJTV is live streaming the Tea Party Convention plus has tons of videos of key interviews. Registration is required but it's FREE! What more can I say...
The On the Lighter Side" Award
- We bought the Hyundai Sonata and are very pleased! Very!
- We've made it to the gym on all our scheduled days
- It's not snowing here and for that we are very grateful
- Acts of Apostasy has posted his State of the Blog Address. It's waaaaaaaay better than Obama flapping his jaws.
- Addiction alert. Sarah has had a close encounter with Bunko and it's not looking good!
- Lent starts on February 17th. I love Lent. My entire year revolves around Lent and I start early with preparations, including special reading material.
This year one of the books I will be using is The Gargoyle Code by Father Dwight Longenecker. I purchased it as soon as it was released last year and have been very pleased. Written similar to C.S. Lewis' The Screw Tape Letters, this book will give you plenty to pray and think about over Lent. Just click on that wonderful picture and it will take you right to where you can purchase the book.
And finally (for now)...
Today would have been Ronald Reagan's 99 birthday.
"A number of Americans from time to time have suggested the need for a national purpose as if somehow we are drifting aimlessly without purpose."
"Perhaps their very suggestion is a measure of how far we've drifted from what has been our national purpose for 200 years. Their suggestion creates an image of a determined people marching in ranks dedicated to the completion of some program or project. But wasn't and isn't our national purpose the original cause which created us a nation? We brought forth a social structure to guarantee for the first time to each individual his right to control his own destiny. Our nation exists for one purpose only - to assure each one of us the ultimate in individual freedom consistent with law and order. God meant America to be free because God intended each man to have the dignity of freedom." Letter to Dr. Kenneth Wells, president of the Freedom Foundation at Valley Forge. 1967 or 68
Happy Birthday Mr. President
We miss you...

You're definitely not alone thinking the Obama t-shirt burial reference was creepy. You get used to creepy from this president but that was exceptionally creepy.
MarySue - Thanks. I was completely taken aback when I saw that video. Why did those people laugh???
Re: the T-shirt. It's all about him, it's always been about him, it will always be about him.
Hiiimmmm, hiiimmm, **** hiiimmm!
Sorry, it was the first thing to come to mind.
Thanks for the link, Duchess! Glad you liked my SOTB address!
creepier than the laughter or even the tshirt comment is how bo uses this story (in the longer video) and therefore the DEAD WOMAN to push for his healthcare plan....especially when the facts don't weigh up. It's just a "kids and dogs" moment. throw a tearjerker in there, ...add some guilt.I mean A DEAD WOMAN thought so much about getting ME elected she was buried in MY tshirt...how dare you disagree....shake and voila! a commercial. All he's missing is sex...look for that next.
