Louis C.K.

Louis C.K is a pretty funny comic, and this clip is funny- the guy mocks how the fact that we have it so good and all we want to do is change- this really isn't a political comedy routine, but it is pretty funny. Copy and paste the link to enjoy-

Blog Lingo- "More Cowbell"

"More cowbell" is a pop culture catchphrase originally derived from an April 8, 2000, Saturday Night Live comedy sketch which fictionalized the recording of the song "(Don't Fear) The Reaper" by the Blue Öyster Cult. The sketch featured guest host Christopher Walken as music producer "The Bruce Dickinson" and regular cast member Will Ferrell as a fictional cowbell player Gene Frenkle. At the climax of the sketch, Dickinson exclaims to the group: "Guess what?! I got a fever, and the only prescription is more cowbell!" The first reference that I saw to this in politics was from Jonah Goldberg over at the Corner at National Review Online.

The way that it is used on this blog is to mock those who demand more of something when the original doesn't seem to be working, because in the sketch, the more cowbell that is included in the song, the worse the song gets, and yet Dickerson continually asks for 'more cowbell'.

For example, if Obama calls for 'more stimulus' when the previous stimulus plan didn't work, than I would mock this by saying that Obama is calling for 'more cowbell.' Or if government regulation and policies hurt an industry and the government comes along and suggests more regulation and policies, I'll mock it by saying that 'the government has a fever, and the only solution appears to be more cowbell.'

Blog Lingo: "Bizarro World"

The Bizarro World (also known as Htrae) is a fictional planet in the DC comics universe. Introduced in the early 1960s, Htrae is home to Bizarro and his companions, who are ruled by the Bizarro Code. This code states that you should do the opposite of all Earthly things, such as hate beauty, love ugliness, make it a crime to make anything perfect, criminalize doing right, attempt to lose money on business, etc. It was referenced notably in the Seinfeld episode "The Bizarro Jerry".

One of my crazier joke conspiracy theories is that Bizarro world is real and that residents of this world have been flooding into the United States through some sort of interworld rift. They are here now, voting Democrat, being liberals, hosting radio shows, and even getting elected into office.

You can tell who the real denizens of Bizarro world are because they argue the opposite of good: that our economy must crash for things to be better, that the more people who are on unemployment the better the economy is, that you must appease all bad guys in the name of peace, that having few wealthy people is a good thing, that kind and considerate people who are curious about the world around them are the bad guys, that closed minded individuals who want to control your life are the good guys, that taking property from others is protecting property, that removing choice from others is helping to liberate them, that the middle class is supported by empowering elites to transfer wealth to the poor, that Israel is the bad guy and Hamas the good guy, that the US killed lots of innocent people in Iraq, that you must bully others in order to stop bullying, that cyber-attacks against those who you disagree with are important to protecting free speech, that liberty is best protected by controlling others, etc.

I call on all good Americans to resist these Bizarro's and their Bizarro agenda.
