The Only "Miracle" Seen So Far (Is That He Won)

"In the Washington Post, E. J. Dionne tried to break it gently to us: 'No occupant of the White House has ever been able to walk on water.'



Yeah, sure, no previous occupant of the White House has been able to walk on water—your Eisenhowers and Roosevelts, your Chester Arthurs and Grover Clevelands and whatnot. But Barack Obama didn’t run as just another of those squaresville losers. He was gonna heal the planet, and lower the oceans. So, even if he couldn’t walk on water, he should at least be able to paddle in it. 'He is a community organizer like Jesus was,' said Susan Sarandon, 'and now we’re a community and he can organize us.'

So how’s that going? Jesus took a handful of loaves and two fish and fed 5,000 people. Barack wants to take a trillion pieces of pork and feed it to a handful of Democratic-party interest groups."

-- Mark Steyn, noticing the messiah's metaphysical mumbo jumbo just ain't cutting it in the real world, at the National Review Online.

Many "Thanks" to our Uncle Irwin at WFMU!!!

This Is A Man's World (Women Want Superstition)

"The news consumption survey,...found that Limbaugh's audience included a greater share of men than the audiences for any other news or opinion outlet included in the survey. Fully 72% of those who said they regularly listen to Limbaugh were men while just 28% were women.

The news consumption survey found that women outnumbered men among those who regularly listen to religious radio; 69% of religious radio listeners were women, while just 31% were men."

The Cult Of NewAge: Now It's Scaring Old People (Which Certainly isn't In Any Of The Literature)

"As I come to the end of my life, there are four times as many registered astrologers in the United States as there are physicists and chemists. Four times as many. The wife of our sometime Prime Minister wears an amulet against 'space rays.' There is not a corner of our lives now that is not invented, invited, invaded by idiocy of irrational superstition, [such as] people who pay vast sums to have some fake Oriental arrange their furniture. Vast sums! The whole New Age -- this is a charlatan's age like never before. It makes the Middle Ages seem scientific in many ways. And all around me, in people I deeply respect, you scratch the surface and there is a frightened, profoundly superstitious person doing hidden gymnastics of the non-mind, in a way, trying to plan their fate, trying to escape from reality. And it frightens me a great deal, because reason is very fragile."

-- George Steiner, saying what so many wannabe super cool and with-it superstitious cowards (including politicians, celebrities, and so-called doctors and scientists) can't admit as we mysteriously go broke ("Vast sums!") and they continue to pay lip service to Burning Man or The Goddess or whatever, as members of the incredibly stupid Mystic Bourgeoisie.

If These Three Celebrity Atheists Are So Damn Smart, Why Is TMR Always Laughing At Them?

"Professor Richard Dawkins, the crème de la crème of the New Atheists,...."

-- Nathalie Rothschild, still pretending the most well-known atheist (along with the other popular - but laughably old school - types, like, the bullshit artist, Sam Harris and Daniel Dennett) represents all the thinking there is on the subject, in Spiked!.

Joseph Nigro: On What Is (And Isn't) Science

NO scientist claims [The Big Bang Theory's] been proven or that it’s a fact.

The word used,...is THEORY, and as such it is subjected to constant scrutiny, testing and revision, all subject to duplication and verification by others.

Science strives to self-correct and expand from the last known demonstrated fragment. The operating principal behind science is “here is what we know SO FAR, and we’re working on it”.

By contrast, the belief systems,...claim to be unquestionably true as a mere act of faith (mind games), regardless of the absence of demonstrable verification.

Understand this,...because if you don’t, that’s what is dangerous; the,...computer,...is a result of science.

That your cell phone works is science. Air travel is the result of science, as is your microwave oven and the fact that your car starts when you turn the key. I could fill a million pages with examples.

Now,...tell me how I can tape a crystal to my elbow that will make me sing like Elvis. And if it doesn’t work,...don’t tell me it’s because I don’t believe strongly enough. Remember, your computer worked whether you believed it would or not.

My ex-wife, Karine Anne Brunck, after I explained that her homeopathic boyfriend, "Dr." Robert Wohlfahrt, killed her mother and his magic "medicine" couldn't work:

"You're just saying that because you don't believe."

They've now killed two more people in France. Like the man said, this NewAge cult is pervasive and dangerous stuff. It's cultism in it's purest form. - CMC

It's The Adulterers Themselves Who Are Ugly

"I still like to believe monogamy exists."

Delusional Thinking: To "Believe" And "Hope" For "Change" From An Unknown Politician With A Big NewAge Cult Following But No Accomplishments

"This is not the kind of change Obama promised us in 2008."

-- The Charlotte Observer, now crying like the children Obama supporters have proven themselves to be, having drank the Kool-Aid everyone with a brain told them to avoid, only to discover there's nothing (but a bit of poison) in it.

And it ain't homeopathic.

Tim Minchin's Anti-NewAge Beat Poem: "Storm"

Or "The Night Tim Met My Ex-Wife," or "Tim Minchin's 'Dinner Of Enlightenment,'" or "If He's Going To Mention Oprah I Wonder If He'll Mention Obama?" or (our favorite:) "Wow: To Think Some Women Are Willingly Destroying Their Marriages, The Lives Of Other Loved Ones, And Society - And Everything Else In Their Path Like Even A Silly Party They'll Blame On Others For Having Disturbed - Because They're So Fucking Arrogant And Narcissistic (And Blindingly Stupid) They Can't Tell The Difference Between Their Oh-So-Cosmic Asshole Of A Brain And The Fact That What Any Quack, Guru, or Spiritual Leader Sells Is Just Another Cultishly Empty-Headed Hole In The Ground - Which Means, Even If They're So-Called 'Homeopathic Doctors,' They're Not Even Half-As-Smart As A Certain Stupid Fucking Drug-Taking Totally-Wigged-Out-By-The-Multiple-Deaths-And-Other-Damage-Done-To-Others-For-A-Whole-Packaged-Nazi-NewAge-Paradigm Musician!"

But then, upon further reflection, we're sure you can come up with a few more snappy titles of your own,...Storm's nice though. Short.

Here's the lyrics for the Frenchies.

Important Safety Tips: Don’t Stick Your Tongue In A Light Socket, Don’t Eat The Yellow Snow, And Don’t Get Your News From These Gerbils

Recent blithering from Katie Couric includes these hard-hitting questions to Obama:
 
"You campaigned to change the culture in Washington, to change the politics as usual culture here. Are you frustrated? Do you think it is much, much harder to do that than you ever anticipated?"
 
And about Tom Daschle:
 
"But in fairness to him, and I don't know all the ins and of it, but he was given a limousine by a private equity fund that I guess he was consulting for, and I don't think he realized perhaps it was taxable income. I think he's really well liked, he’s very knowledgeable on health care."

Not to be out-blithered, Brian Williams said:
 
"A question I had for him yesterday, and I ran out of time -- it was kind of like pictures with Santa in the Oval Office, you didn't get much time with the big man ,..."

Rick Sanchez, aka Diaper-Boy, has an apparent sexual crush on Joe The Plumber - There’s just no reason to listen to his unrequited love rants and his constant projections of his own miserable shortcomings onto everyone else.

And there's Chris Matthews, the world’s tallest kindergartner, who has nothing to say that would matter to anybody.

That's the line-up: your "Mainstream Media." Get it? Got it? GOOD!!!
