Sunday Night War of the Sexes

I think this is how the fight started. For some reason, Gruntessa thought this graphic was absolutely hilarious.

And I retaliated with this photo which is perfectly accurate.

Even the MSM is Now Openly Mocking Marie Harf’s Defense of Iran


CNN – A State Department spokeswoman battled a New York Times story on Iran’s nuclear fuel stockpile on Wednesday with a line-by-line challenge of the article on Twitter.

State Department acting spokeswoman Marie Harf tweeted at David Sanger, one of two New York Times reporters who authored a story Tuesday about the stockpile, saying many central tenets of the story were “not true.” The pair reported on an assessment from the International Atomic Energy Agency, a U.N. watchdog organization, that the stockpile had grown by 20%.

Harf proceeded to tweet multiple criticisms of the NY Times article, beginning with…

Still More Bestselling Children’s Books by Chelsea Clinton

I don’t know where she finds the time to write all these. She’s a busy executive officer at the Clinton crime family slush fund foundation. And she’s already written several very successful children’s books that we showcased here. All of them are available now for sale at the Gruntington Post Publishing House, Gift Shop and Cigar Emporium.

Chelsea Clinton Cranks Out a Few More Children’s Books

Because we can’t wait to find more quasi-legal ways to funnel cash to the Clinton Foundation. Somebody at Ace of Spades came up with this brilliance last week.

Beirut Bombshell: Greatest Threat Facing Mankind Is NOT Global Warming

Nope. Apparently, it’s Israel.
Threat1j
Wow, look at all these green countries. Sunni or Shia, it doesn’t seem to matter. The biggest threat they face and the reason that they are all struggling with crushing economic, cultural, technological and environmental failure is just one word: Israel. Such a relief! At least we know that Bill Nye and Al Sharpton are wrong about that whole “climate control” thing.

Breitbart(Washington DC) – Muslim clerics gathered in Beirut on Wednesday to kick off the Khomeinist International Union of Resistance conference, where “scholars” discussed how to stand up against the “cancerous tumor of Israel,” according to reports from Lebanese and Iranian media outlets.

Radical Iranian cleric Mohsen Araki said that destroying Israel and “countering the arrogant world” should be the two main priorities for “resistance clerics,” reports Iran’s state-run Taghrib News.

Araki, who once served as Iranian dictator Ali Khamenei’s representative in London, continued with his speech. “Standing against the arrogant world and its representative in the region, the cancerous tumor of Israel, is a must which should be shouldered by resistance clerics and leaders,” he said, according to the state-media report.

Indy 99: All Eyes Open for Airborne Cars

usa-today-7926505.0
Being a Hoosier, born and bred, and having worked in the press box overlooking the finish line at the Indy Speedway, it goes without saying that I’ll be watching the 99th running of the race today. If you are so inclined also, here is a handy rundown from SBNation.com about the things unique to this racing season. Tops in everyone’s mind this year is probably the incidence of accidents due to problems with car body aerodynamics. Here’s what you need to know:

1. The No. 1 starting position has been good to pole-sitter Scott Dixon, whose only Indianapolis 500 victory came from this spot in 2008.

2. Simona de Silvestro and Pippa Mann are the only two women drivers in Sunday’s race. They will be looking to eclipse Danica Patrick’s record third-place finish by a female set in 2009.

3. The No. 3 is the most successful car numeral in Indianapolis history with 11 victories overall. That total includes two by Helio Castroneves, who again will have the number on his Chevrolet Sunday.

4. Speaking of Castroneves, another Indianapolis victory would be his fourth and move him into rarified company. He would join A.J. Foyt, Al Unser Sr. and Rick Mears as the only four-time winners. No other active driver even has two wins.

5. Five former winners qualified for Sunday’s race — Dixon (2008), Tony Kanaan (2013), Castroneves (2001, ’02, ’09), Juan Pablo Montoya (2000) and Ryan Hunter-Reay (2014).

6. The introduction of new aerodynamic body panels this year has produced mixed results thus far. In the season-opener on the street course in St. Petersburg, Fla., a piece of debris flew into the stands and fractured a woman’s skull. And things haven’t improved since the kits were used on the Indianapolis oval for the first time. Leading to …

7. After accidents that saw three drivers get airborne and a fourth wreck that seriously injured James Hinchcliffe, a feeling of apprehension hangs over the garage. IndyCar decreased boost and made the cars easier to handle, but there’s been minimal track time to see if those changes will make Sunday’s race any safer.

8. A Graham Rahal win would make him and father Bobby just the second father-son to achieve victory at Indianapolis. Al Unser Sr. won four times, while son Al Jr. won twice.

9. When it comes to Indianapolis car owners, Roger Penske and Chip Ganassi are unquestionably the measuring sticks. The two IndyCar titans have fielded cars that have combined to win nine of the past 15 races.

I’d Call Jessica Valenti My New Muse, But I’m Pretty Sure That Would Be Sexist

Forget “Mansplaining.” The latest feminist whining point is that men don’t think enough about, read enough or listen to enough women. Or maybe too much. It’s not clear. How do they know? They just do. Get it directly from the “killjoy’s” mouth here. Also, SooperMexican reports on some of Guardian writer Jessica Valenti’s stalking habits, and this cartoon is definitely NOT grounds for a lawsuit. I think.
