Republicans hire Obama impersonator to belittle the President, only to escort him off stage when he turns on them.
Courtesy of Sarah Jones over at Politicususa:
Video surfaced today of the Republicans kicking Reggie Brown, their Obama impersonator, off the stage at the Republican Leadership Conference after he made fun of their candidates. I confess that I’ve been struggling to understand what passes for Republican humor ever since we found out that they think Colbert is a conservative and tried to claim “Obama Waffles” “Barack the Magic Negro” and “Watermelon White House” were “satire”.
I’m still befuddled after watching this video, because they were gettin’ a good laugh on as Reggie mocked Obama’s race and birthplace but they got all button down upset when Reggie went for the Obamneycare.
See, it’s rip roarin’ funny when the impersonator goes after Obama, talks about race endlessly, and equates Obama with the Kardashians. I’d grade this sort of low level base humor on par with what I expected from my nephew when he was in Junior High, but I’ll note that even my small town nephew with a big heart got the cruelty of such jokes by the time he reached the ripe age of 13. Happiest laughter at Anthony Weiner jokes — this coming from a party chock full of elected officials who have committed actual sex crimes and remain in office, self-awareness clearly not in evidence in New Orleans this night.
When do they get offended? When the humor is directed at their candidates, of course.
At has been pointed out repeatedly that the Republicans just don't get humor. So they hire a rather juvenile comedian because he sounds like Obama and often mocks him in his act, but have no idea that this guy makes jokes that also target their own candidates.
When they realize that his jokes have more than just a grain of truth in them about the GOP field they quickly have him escorted offstage by an old white guy.
Of course having Obama pushed off stage by an old white guy is EXACTLY the kind of wet dream that most of the GOP have every night anyway.

Happy Father's Day!
When I woke up this morning my radio alarm was going off. I usually wake up well before my alarm, but this morning I was greeted by the lovely voice of Stevie Nicks, singing "Landslide" which is perhaps one of my all time favorite songs.
Not a bad way to start the morning in my opinion.
Still I had almost forgotten that today was Father's Day. That is until I walked into my office.

So yes, apparently my daughter thought it would be very humorous to combine the phallic nature of the Shake Weight with a video of scantily clad women exercising. (Gee you know that DOES sound like a good combination!)
Ha, ha! Very funny.
But you know sometimes a Dad might want to receive something that is not a joke and let's him know that he is appre.....oh!

Uh..I got a little something in my eye...so....um...Happy Father's Day everyone. I have to go hug my little girl now.

This is what I found covering the floor. Apparently my daughter did NOT forget it was Father's Day.
But what do you get the Dad who has everything.
Really?
Yes folks, my daughter does indeed share my somewhat twisted sense of humor.
Just in case you are not familiar with the Shake Weight, you can learn more about it here.
Now you might have thought that was enough for my jokester of a daughter, but you would be wrong.

Is Mitt Romney too socially awkward to be the President?
Reporter Dana Milbank spent the other day following Mitt Romney around and reported on his strained attempts to connect with the little people.
Mitt Romney, the leading contender to become President Obama’s Republican opponent next year, had just finished working the room at Blake’s Creamery here when he paused for a photo with the restaurant’s owner, Ann Mirageas, and decided to tell her a joke.
“I saw the young man over there with eggs Benedict, with hollandaise sauce,” he said. “And I was going to suggest to you that you serve your eggs with hollandaise sauce in hubcaps. Because there’s no plates like chrome for the hollandaise.”
The proprietor laughed weakly. “Good luck to you,” Mirageas said.
WTF? Is this guy running for President, or is he a contestant on "The Gong Show."
And it did not get much better for Romney after that.
He talks about the weak economy with the proprietors of a feed shop, then abruptly pivots: “Okay, so what do you do about mosquito control? . . . This has been a mosquito-infested year with all the moisture. They flew away with my dog.”
At Mary Ann’s, a retro diner in Derry, N.H., the slogan on the owner’s shirt is “A blast from the past” — and the description suits Romney, too. He admires the Texaco “Fire Chief” gas pump and a jukebox (“You guys hear this music? ‘I want a caveman, I want a caveman.’ ”). Posing for a photo with his arms around the waitresses, he suddenly jumps forward, pretending somebody pinched his bottom. “Oh my goodness gracious!” he exclaims, then, “Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.” He later says the gag is “kind of fun to do.”
This last exchange, unfortunately for Romney, was caught on camera and broadcast on Hardball yesterday.
Perhaps this kind of thing plays well with the GOP base, who must still set bags of dog poop on fire on their neighbors doorstep before ringing the doorbell and running away, but this guy is looking to land a job representing ALL Americans. And some of us are not uptight humorless mannequins.

I think that Sarah Palin's next trip to pick up her favorite food, Crunchwrap Supremes, might be a little AWKWARD!
I received this in my e-mail earlier today from a fan of IM.
So when was the last time YOU heard of a person being taken seriously as Presidential candidate after having a fast food chain make fun at them?
I am just asking.

I'm a climate scientist.
Might not be safe for work. Unless of course you're a climate scientist.
