A Quick Roundup of Things I Don’t Care About

A few quick hits, so I can get to work on the project I’m supposed to be finishing up (and incidentally, is keeping me in light blogging mode lately). Let’s do it McLaughlin Group style.
Issue One: Eason Jordan. If you don’t know the story, Eason Jordan is a bedwetting, limp-wristed CNN journalist who allegedly made the claim at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland last month that U.S. troops are deliberately targeting journalists. Michelle Malkin and LaShawn Barber have good roundups if you need more.
White Trash Wednesday blogger Dan even got a Malkinlanche for his hilarious contribution to the story. One word: spitballs.
Why don’t I care about this story? It’s just another anti-American journalist – of which there are too many to count at CNN – spreading lies about the same U.S. military they claim to support. (Not enough to wear a U.S. flag lapel pin, but they really do care) To hell with Jordan and his ilk. There are plenty of other half-wits waiting in the wings to take the place of these fallen journalistic heroes. I don’t believe we’re targeting journalists, but would I lose any sleep if we were? Naaaaaaaaaaaaaaah.
In fact, I recommend a purple heart to the first soldier to take out Cristiana Amampour.
Issue Two: The Super Bowl. Pretty good game. Glad to see T.O. lose even though he showed considerable stones playing that well with a gimpy ankle. I hate to give him props on any level, but what can you say? He put his money where is big fat yapper was.
A couple of other Super Bowl-related issues I don’t care about – Super Bowl Ads and President Clifford and President Senior appearing in the same suit with their hands out for tsunami victims. They need to be raising money to pay more INS Officers at the Mexican border, the media whores.
Issue Three: Hot National Guard chicks mud wrestling. While it’s certainly something I would enjoy watching – I might even go so far as to join in, a la John Candy in Stripes – but who the hell cares? Lighten up for the love of Pete. Hell, they need to let loose with the stress they’re under.
Issue Four: Ward Churchill. This is another shocker. A university professor who says that the 9/11 victims got exactly what they deserved, and is generally a Marxist clown. On top of that, he’s masqueraded as a “native American” when he is apparently nothing of the sort.
Word now is that he may be fired from his position poisoning the minds of malleable college-aged dimwits, though his 9/11 comments may not be the only motivation. How hard is it to find a tenured Sandinista on a university campus? It takes about 5 minutes in most cases.
Alright, back to whatever you were doing.
