THE NATIONAL IMBECILE: LITTLE BARRY OBAMA DOESN’T EVEN RECALL WHAT ‘THE OBAMA DOCTRINE’ IS
“This president stuff is MUCH harder than getting D’s in college was!”
It’s official – Barack Obama is dumber than Sarah Palin on her worst day. Remember the fun we all had laughing when Vice Presidential candidate Palin proved incapable of adequately explaining the Bush Doctrine back in 2008? Well, the weak, inept and crooked little man named Barack Obama proved he can outdo THAT! Little Barry today proved incapable of recalling, let alone explaining, HIS OWN DOCTRINE!
Anyone who wants to check that can search it out online and use their own preferred website. I always say to do that with items like this because there is no point linking to a site – American Liberals and American Conservatives are such fanatics they refuse to believe anything that appears at a website not of their own choosing.
Knock yourselves out, people! This pathetic little man is one enormous joke. “Period” as Little Barry himself said when he was lying about people being able to keep their doctors under Obamacare. Continue reading

PULP HERO NORTHWEST SMITH: STORIES THREE AND FOUR
Balladeer’s Blog continues its examination of another neglected pulp hero – in this case Northwest Smith. Created by the female author C.L. Moore in the 1930’s Northwest Smith was a ruthless outer-space smuggler and mercenary decades before Han Solo. With his Venusian partner Yarol at his side and armed with a trusty blaster Smith roamed the solar system in his deceptively fast spaceship The Maid. In the course of their criminal pursuits the two often found themselves in the role of reluctant heroes, sometimes with the fate of entire planets at stake.

3. SCARLET DREAM (1934) – Once again lying low between illegal activities of some sort Northwest Smith finds himself in the Martian city of Lakkmanda. The city’s illicit markets are legendary throughout the solar system and Smith buys a very odd scarlet blanket made of some otherworldly silk-like material. The blanket was found on a deserted spaceship with no sign left of the original crew, which should have warned our hero away from the odd blanket but if it had there would be no story.

GEORGE C SCOTT CAPTIONING FUN
I’ve had days like that. One time I unwittingly trained a dolphin to kill the president of the Teamsters Union. I had a hell of a time hiding Hoffa’s body. “Thanks for all the fish” my ass!
IF YOU PREFER YOU CAN SUBSTITUTE ONE OF THE FOLLOWING CAPTIONS INSTEAD: Continue reading

COLLEGE BASEBALL: NAIA CONFERENCE TOURNAMENTS ARE UNDERWAY!
The Kentucky Intercollegiate Athletic Conference threw out the first pitch yesterday in postseason play for the NAIA (National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics). The ever- dangerous INDIANA UNIVERSITY- SOUTHEAST GRENADIERS came in as the 3 seeds and opened up the proverbial can of whupass on the 6th seeded ALICE LLOYD COLLEGE EAGLES. The college sports gods always smile when a team with an overused name like Eagles, Tigers, Bulldogs or Wildcats gets routed and the Grenadiers were happy to oblige!
IUS led 4-1 after the 1st Inning and 7-1 after the 2nd. The Grenadiers then went on to put up 4, 1 and 3 runs respectively in the 7th, 8th and 9th Innings on their way to an impressive FIFTEEN to ONE humilation of the Eagles. Mason Lingafelter got the win as IUS moves on to the next round. Continue reading
