Now that the Supreme Court has ruled that you have to pay a tax if you fail to buy medical insurance, here is an interesting sample of other things the Federal Government can constitutionally tax you for not doing.

Federal Broccoli Act of 2013: Eat your broccoli, else pay the IRS $1,000.

Federal Green Car Act of 2015: Make your next car battery powered, else pay the IRS $3,000.

Some of the people in this video have got to be adrenaline junkies.

Thanks to my buddy, Brian, the Air Force Vet.

I’m sure that by now you all know about The Obama Event Registry. The object of this clever stunningly idiotic idea is for The One’s supporters who have a wedding, anniversary, birthday or other gift-giving event coming up, to forego receiving a gift, but rather to ask their gift-givers to click on the Obama Event Registry to make a gift to the Obama campaign.

PRS Operatives have learned of yet another fundraising scheme being cooked up by the geniuses running the Obama Campaign. In fact, we have obtained a copy of the fundraising letter that will mailed to The One’s supporters, and it will appear online as well. Take a look.

TAKE THE PLUNGE FOR BARACK.

Dear Friends and Supporters:

Quite simply, my re-election is absolutely critical to the future existence of the United States, the world and the planet. The Republicans, obstructionist fat cat creeps that they are, just don’t seem to realize that. We’re in for a tough fight this year, and Michelle and I need your help in a big way.

In that regard, I am happy to announce our “TAKE THE PLUNGE FOR BARACK” program, which provides you with a convenient way to make a meaningful donation to my campaign and thereby ensure that I have another four years in which to finish the job of fundamentally transforming America.

It’s easy! Here’s all you have to do:

1. Create your Last Will and Testament, leaving your entire estate to my campaign. If you already have a will, you will need to write a new one to accomplish this. Don’t worry about the cost of preparing the document, as Eric Holder and I have a virtual army of lawyers available to help you, free of charge, just a click away.

2. Properly execute the document in accordance with your state’s probate laws (our lawyers can help you with this – again, at no cost to you!)

3. Once you have executed your Last Will and Testament, locate a high bridge and take the plunge. If you are having trouble finding a suitably high bridge, consider throwing yourself in front of a bus or driving into a bridge abutment. This has to be done before November, and we ask that you “Take the Plunge” no later than October 15th, as we will need all the money we can get our hands on for the final run-up to Election Day.

Do it for your Leader!

It’s the right thing to do!

Thanks.

Your Pal,
Barack

Update: The lunacy continues — for real.

Priceless.

Thanks for the email tips from The Angry Americano and Fausta.

I’m sure you’ve seen action/mystery movies or have read novels in which horrible things happen to the hero, almost always resulting in death, when his companion says, “We’d better call the cops!”

Did you ever hear or read the hero to say, “Great idea. Let’s do it.”?

Yeah, me neither.

Happy Father’s Day to all the dads out there. For my part, I’ll be spending some special time today thinking of my father, who was and always will be my hero, and who taught me how to play C, F and G chords. I remember him bragging to his friends that I, a seven-year old squirt, could play an F7 chord on a guitar much like the one pictured above. I’d give anything to play a duet with him today.

I like to think that I’ve got a flair for accents, but this kid is better. He does 24 of them.

Note: Many of his ad-lib bits contain adult language and are most definitely NSFW.

I hope the sonofabitch who is responsible for this hoax, which resulted in a massive search and rescue effort, is caught and his ass sent to federal prison. Interesting, to me, is that he reported the sinking yacht’s position as “17 miles due east” of Sandy Hook (a beach recreational area). I’ll bet the asshole was on the beach watching it all.

I admit it; I’m too lazy to write something. I’ve been “busy” shooting pretty crummy pool and playing very crummy golf, so much so that it has cut into my drinking time. I have to work on that.

In the meantime, take a look at a real-time clock comprised of a bunch of naked men (It is “G” rated). If you click on it, it changes from analog to digital. I’m in “ore” of people who have the talent to create such things.

That is all.

Thanks to Darlene for the clock thing

Today marks the 68th anniversary of the Allied Invasion of Europe. Each of us owes the men who participated in that operation a debt that can never be fully repaid. Sadly, with each passing year fewer people are aware of its significance.
