Quote of the Day – Politics and Media Edition
the Obama administration could find itself in the uncomfortable position of reconsidering its vows
I bet that’s been programmed in as a keyboard shortcut by the tech support departments of the media companies of the world by now. Ctrl-Alt-O.

That’s from the comments to Tom Maguire’s JustOneMinute post One Of Obama’s Great Achievements May Be Unraveling.
The snark is strong in this one.
This one is by email suggestion. Reader “Cormac” sent the link. Jennifer of In Jennifer’s Head brings the snark on the day that concealed-carry in national parks becomes legal. I hope she’ll forgive me, but her post is not excerptable, it’s of a piece and 100% USDA Prime snark, done rare just like I like it:
Today is the day that all law-abiding gun owners will collectively lose their minds and begin shooting the moment they cross the invisible barrier between national parks and everywhere else. As someone who has passed the sheriff’s background check, the OSBI’s (Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation) background check, the FBI’s background check, I intend to avoid any national parks so as to avoid the creeping insanity. I would hate for today to be the day that I break my non-murdering streak.
Thank goodness the law requires me to remove my firearm before entering a school! Just think about the carnage that’s been prevented by limiting the freedoms of all those dastardly permit holders.
Bravo, Jennifer, bravo!
Quote of the Day – Heavily Armed Edition
It’s very important to me that when they do my junk-on-the-bunk display, folks on internet gun forums will say “Okay, that is an arsenal.“
— Tam, commenting on her own post, If the pants fit, wet them about some guy getting arrested for having, as she put it, “fewer guns in total than I own, say, Mausers.”
Of course, true, hardcore Randians don’t really have friends….just other rugged individualists with whom they enter mutually-beneficial economic agreements. – “Anonymous” in comments over at Sipsey Street Irregulars
Word of the Day
Gorewellian
That is all.
This is in relation to the previous post on this topic, Audi’s Super Bowl “Green Police” ad. Reader Perlhaqr in the comments:
Now I have “the Green Police… are buried under my shed…” running through my head.
First runner-up comes from SayUncle’s post yesterday, Ad Fail:
The ad says that, by virtue of buying this car, you will be a compliant citizen. In essence, you’ll be a better sheep. Fuck that.
The commercial should have ended with a guy in a big ass Ford Earthfuckertm that gets 5 miles per gallon with seats made from baby seals blowing past the roadblock billowing smoke. And, for effect, the driver flips them off. I’d buy that car.
Let’s see, the Escape, Explorer, Expedition, Excursion, Exclusion, and Earthfucker. Helluva lineup!
Fool Me Once, Shame on You . . .
. . . fool me twice, shame on me. And still we’re stuck with the lesser-of-two-evils choice.
That’s by Nate Beeler of the Washington Examiner.

Borepatch Does it Again!
Fellow gunblogger Borepatch, creator of the Clippy image that shot around the world (and brought me hellacious traffic) has done another! “It looks like you’re trying to write a State of the Union address . . .”
