The Arizona Cardinals will be playing in their first Superbowl Sunday, it is very surprising because the last time they were even in the play-offs they were known as the Arizona Peradactals.

Ice Cream & The Election
Who worries about "the cow" when it is all about
the "Ice Cream?
The most eye-opening civics lesson I ever had was
while teaching third grade this year.
The presidential election was heating up and
some of the children showed an interest.
I decided we would have an election for a class president.
We would choose our nominees.
They would make a campaign speech and the class would vote.
To simplify the process, candidates were
nominated by other class members.
We discussed what kinds of characteristics
these students should have.
We got many nominations and from those,
Jamie and Olivia were picked to run for the top spot.
The class had done a great job in their selections.
Both candidates were good kids.
I thought Jamie might have an advantage because
he got lots of parental support.
I had never met Olivia's parents.
The day arrived when they were to make their speeches.
Jamie went first. He had specific ideas about
how to make our class a better place.
He ended by promising to do his very best.
Everyone applauded.
He sat down and Olivia came to the podium.
Her speech was concise.
She said, "If you will vote for me,
I will give you ice cream." She sat down.
The class went wild. "Yes! Yes! We want ice cream.
" She surely could say more. She did not have to.
A discussion followed. How did she plan to pay for the ice cream?
She wasn't sure.
Would her parents buy it or would the class pay for it?
She didn't know.
The class really didn't care.
All they were thinking about was ice cream.
Jamie was forgotten. Olivia won by a landslide.
Every time Barack Obama opened his mouth
he offered ice cream and
fifty-two percent of the people reacted like nine year olds.
They want ice cream.
The other forty-eight percent of us know
we're going to have to feed the cow and clean up the mess.

OBAM's Media
Without the Mainstream Media, the Left is Nothing
Headlines On This Date 4 Years Ago:
"Republicans spending $42 million on inauguration while troops Die in unarmored Humvees"
"Bush extravagance exceeds any reason during tough economic times"
"Fat cats get their $42 million inauguration party, Ordinary Americans get the shaft"
Headlines Today:
"Historic Obama Inauguration will cost only $120 million"
"Obama Spends $120 million on inauguration; America
"Everyman Obama shows America
"Citibank executives contribute $8 million to Obama Inauguration"
There's just nothing like
fair & unbiased coverage of the news !
Some people got bored while waiting for the inauguration so they started doing the Electric Slide. Apparently, the best way to celebrate our first black president is to do the whitest dance imaginable.~Conan O'Brien

Israel Aggresses Humanitarian Boat in International Waters
MIDDLE EAST (Jan. 02-09) Former Georgia Congresswoman and Green Party presidential candidate Cynthia McKinney's latest attention getting, cheap, political stunt was derailed last Tuesday when the yacht she was on board rammed into an Israeli gunboat. Paul Larudee, a co-founder of the California-based Free Gaza group said the organization was determined to continue the relief missions, the sixth such trip to Gaza and the first to be interrupted. "We're going to get it repaired," Larudee said of the Dignity, the cabin cruiser sustained damage to the bridge, engine room, and hull, "and we're going to continue our missions of pure propaganda. We have liberal journalists, a crazy Leftest Congresscritter, and all kinds of other nutjobs who are coming basically to provoke Israel and provide relief for Hamas!"
Foreign Ministry spokesman Yigal Palmor said the boat ignored a radio order to turn back, Israel has declared areas around the Gaza Strip a "closed military zone" after it launched an aerial offensive in the coastal territory on Hamas targets on Saturday, the boat tried to outmaneuver the navy ship and crashed into it, lightly damaging both vessels. The blockade-running attempt to carry medical supplies to Hamas was then ordered to turn around and return back to Cypress. The activists claimed they did not have enough fuel to return so the Navy allowed the vessel to sail to the Lebanese seaport of Tyre.
Defense Ministry spokesman Shlomo Dror said "The time has come to put a stop to these morons who are sending a 66-foot yacht into a war zone and are not bringing any significant amount of humanitarian supplies." He pointed out that the Gaza crossings are still open, despite the ongoing rocket and mortar attacks on Israel, more than 120 trucks entered Sunday and Monday, for hundreds of tons of aid, and 100 more are expected to reach the area Tuesday. "If McKinney must deliver supplies to an organization on the US State Department's terrorist list she can just use one of her limos!"
