Most of the media ignored this: Al Gore recently bought a 2nd home - a $9 million mansion in CA. Now we know why he's so concerned about global warming - it made him tons of money!

Hope Floats?
This was shot from the Nashville floods this past weekend. Notice the banner on the building. I guess HOPE doesn't float after all - at least not when it encounters an obstacle. Maybe that thing that smashes into it is a crate full of TEA! Ironically, this building smashes into about the only useful thing out there and sinks it - a fishing boat!

Can't wait and what's the rush?
So far, Obama's "leadership" has been to continue campaigning. He's more like a used car salesman than statesman. We've seen him rush to:
Bail out the banks
Pass a stimulus ("now")
Force Chrysler to be sold
Force GM into bankruptcy
Pass ObamaCare
And lately even securing the 2016 Olympics for his hometown.
But when it comes to Afghanistan:
He's only met with the commander once (via video conference)
He still can't decide whether to commit more troops.
He has the time to fly to Europe to petition the International Olympic Committee for the 2016 Summer Olympics. He even has the time to get the British PM involved. But deciding on Afghanistan, the Taliban, and al Queda? That apparently can wait. This is a war he reminds us that he "inherited"; yet he seems to have just heard about it yesterday and has to examine all the angles. Makes you wonder since he was ready 4 months ago to take over our healthcare just how long he's been working on that.

National Health Care
The next time you hear Obama or Congress claim that Obama’s health care plan will cost $50-65 billion per year, remind them that when Medicare came into existence in 1966, its projected cost in 1990 was $12 billion. They only missed that estimate by 900%.

What would my dog say if she could talk?
I often thought "if Peanut could talk (that's our Golden Retriever) , what would she say?" I mean look at the picture - doesn't she look like she would say at least one of these?
"Well, YOUR breath doesn't smell so good either."
"No, I don't know why my leg does that when you scratch me."
"You're acting weird, so it must mean we're going to the Vet."
"They want to express my what??!!!"
"The next time the Vet does THAT, somebody's gonna get bit!"
"Don't tell me it's going to be okay. Does your doctor do THAT to YOU?!!"
"Yoo hoo! Dog's gotta go wee-wee!"
"Oh. It's only you. I thought it was somebody."
"Pet me? . . . . . . . . . . Pet me. . . . . . . . . . . . PET ME!!!"
"Dog food again?"
"I didn't do it."
"Squirrel!"
"I'll make you a deal - I'll stop staring if you'll stop eating that steak."
"Go ahead - blame the dog."
"I saw you slip that pill in with my dog food."
"Tell you what, while we're at the Vet, let's pretend you're the dog."
"It was the kids. Honest."
"How can you look at this face and not feed me chicken?"
"What?"
"I'll trade you one bowl of dog food for one steak bone."
"Woof!" (which means "Hey!" in human language)
"You threw it. YOU go get it."
"It's slobber. Get used to it."
"Haven't you ever scooted your booty across the carpet? You oughta try it sometime."
"I sleep so much during the day because you snore so much during the night!"
And while at the dog park: "Hey mister, you call THAT a dog??!!!"
