Unemployment rose to 9.1% last month, and employers added only 54,000 new jobs, the smallest increase in eight months. To add insult to injury, half of the new jobs were created by one employer — an employer of whom our obesity-obsessed First Lady vehemently disapproves. The inimitable Bard of Murdock comments:

At fifty-seven tries
I got a real surprise:
A job that oft applies
More cellulite to thighs.

Most mornings when I rise,
With sleep still in my eyes,
I head to work that ties
My life to apple pies.

“Perhaps you would like fries?”
My clients I advise,
“Or maybe Supersize,
And get a Nobel Prize!”

Barack might improvise,
But doesn’t realize,
The jobs his plan supplies,
Michelle would criticize.

THE SATURDAY GRUDGE

posted by Pistol Pete

EDITORIAL ALERT!!!!!!

There were two notable deaths yesterday.

The first was Jack Kevorkian, “Dr.Death.”

I could care less.Unfortunately,Joe Biden won’t be able to redeem the gift certificate I sent him for a session with the good doctor.

The second passing leaves an empty place in the heart of Americans who remember when the good guys won.

James Arness,TV western icon, passed quietly at age 88.The 6’7″ tower of manhood walked down a dusty street and outdrew the faceles bad guy at the beginning of every episode.Those of us who are old enough will always remember Roy,Dale,Gene Autry,the Lone Ranger just to name a few who epitomized all that was good and moral in our culture.

Contrast that with today’s heroes.Womanizing politicians,barely-dressed women,gangs dealing drugs and death with indifference.A failed education system,decaying cities,a population stripped of hope and the ability to dream.

Rest in peace,Marshall Dillon,we’ll not see your like again.

OBAMA’S NON-ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF TODAY’S JOBS REPORT

The D in Democrat stands for Do-nothing

I am reminded of the months and months of ObamaCare debating when the Left blatted that Republicans did not have a plan of their own. The Left Stream Media backed them up on their big fat lie. Republicans put forward a bunch of plans. The Democrat majority leaders refused to let any of them on to the floor.

I’m thinking if one of the Republican health care plans had ever seen the light of day, some Republicans would have voted for it. Since Democrats have the majority in the Senate, they could have passed the Obama budget plan. Instead they ALL voted NAY. So pathetic.
