Strike A Pose

The face that launched a thousand ships

Although the President was never in any real danger, death threats against him must be taken seriously. Even when they give you a mug shot as goofy as the one of Rochester woman Christine Wright-Darrisaw, who was arrested last Friday after her latest round of rambling phone calls to the White House regarding the unfairness of child custody laws.

A White House operator told the Secret Service that “she recognized the caller’s voice because she is always calling the White House with regard to child custody issues,” according to the affidavit.
The “female caller was rambling wildly and screaming into the phone with regard to how unfair the child custody laws were and that she needed Obama to fix this” (Source: WGRZ)

A judge ordered her to take a competency exam.

However, in the mug-shot that I’m sure has already gone viral, I couldn’t help but notice that I think I’ve seen this pose before. Then, it hit me:

That'll make you miss a free throw...

 

A lot of brackets will be blown if this head starts popping up at games…

Lawmaker Earns “Stupid Grandstanding” Badge

Tuesday, February 21st, 2012

"I was thinkin', I'm gonna take me some of these taters home with me...."

Republican Representative Bob Morris was the only member of the Indiana House who has refused to sign a resolution that celebrates the Girl Scouts’ 100th anniversary, in a show of stupidity that demonstrates that there is such a thing as “bad press”. (Link to Indiana News Center here.) Morris, who is a doppelganger for Karl Chiders in Billy Bob Thorton’s “Sling Blade” (but not as bright, and with less sound judgement) told House Republicans in Indiana via a letter (that The Journal-Gazette of Fort Wayne obtained) that he “did sum researchin’ and done found out that Girl Scouts is a ‘tac-tic-cal’ arm of Planned Parenthood” and that the Scouts supports abortion (presumably through the sale of their cookies?) and “dun promotes homo-sinuality”.

Hot Carl Vs. The Four Wheeled Freeloaders (Video)

Monday, September 26th, 2011

Tommunisms returns from it’s month long “Internet vacation” with an exclusive video featuring former gubernatorial candidate Carl Paladino weighing in on what is a direct affront to the American Dream: food trucks…

Tell Buffalo’s “leaders” that you support reasonable regulation of food trucks in Buffalo, not knee-jerk protectionism from money-grubbing landlords and the restaurant tenants who feel somehow threatened from the “terror on wheels” the food trucks represent to their imagination. Check out the petition!
