Slut?

Sunday, March 4th, 2012

I wrote this earlier but decided to post a video of me reading it instead of just the words because I wanted to add emphasis where I thought it belonged. Mind you, I don’t really care what people do in their personal lives and if you want bang a phalanx of male members or dive into a sea of muff, that’s your business… but don’t politicize it or you might not like what you hear. Do I think Sandra Fluke is a slut? Naw, probably not. Frankly, I don’t care if she is or is not. What she does with her vagina is her business. When she starts trying to force people to pay for what she does with her vagina (in fact, when she tries to make the government and ergo make me pay for it) and goes before congress to testify about it, she makes it everybody’s business.

The bottom line is this: the old mantra “keep government out of my vagina” is total bullshit if you want government to pay for what goes in it.

 

By the way, here are the links to the US News and World Report and Kinsey Institute reports if you want to check my numbers as well as a SlutWalk link.

Halliburton, Halliburton, Brown and Root, Hall…. Crap! Uhh, never mind…

Obama warned not to visit Solyndra

A Silicon Valley investor and senior administration officials warned the White House to reconsider having President Obama visit a solar start-up company because of its mounting financial problems, saying he might be embarrassed later.

“A number of us are concerned that the president is visiting Solyndra,” California investor and Obama fundraiser Steve Westly wrote to Obama senior adviser Valerie Jarrett in May 2010. “Many of us believe the company’s cost structure will make it difficult for them to survive long term. . . . I just want to help protect the president from anything that could result in negative or unfair press.”

The memo was among several copies of e-mails released Monday morning by Democrats on the House Energy and Commerce Committee, which is investigating a government loan to the now-bankrupt company.

Obama’s Energy Department had provided Solyndra with a $535 million government-backed loan in 2009 and wanted to highlight the investment to show taxpayers how their stimulus dollars had been put to work. Westly said that if Obama proceeded with the visit, he should be careful about touting the company’s future.

“If it’s too late to change/postpone the meeting, the president should be careful about unrealistic/optimistic forecasts that could haunt him in the next 18 months if Solyndra hits the wall, files for bankruptcy, etc.”

Released by Democrats?

We know not this man, Obama, that you speak of. Someone please pass the Purell…
