The greatest economic boom since the foundation of the Ramanaya Empire in India circa 20,000 BC continues to be unstoppable. The great prosperity unleashed by the policies of the Obama regime and the money printing of the Federal Reserve is unparalleled in human history. Americans across the land are grateful for the good times they are enjoying economically. The 1st quarter numbers were historic and shows the great strength of our economy!

U.S. economic growth braked more sharply than expected in the first quarter as harsh weather dampened consumer spending and energy companies struggling with low prices slashed spending, but there are signs activity is picking up.

Gross domestic product expanded at an only 0.2 percent annual rate, the Commerce Department said on Wednesday. That was a big step down from the fourth quarter’s 2.2 percent pace and marked the weakest reading in a year.

A strong dollar and a now-resolved labor dispute at normally busy West Coast ports also slammed growth, the government said.

The economy is doing great and the stock market is just awesome. Things are looking up thanks to the great Obama, our glorious leader leading us to prosperity and eternal Hipness!

Kudos to Andrew Breitbart For Multiple Smackdowns

“As soon as I heard about the “scandal” involving Rep. Anthony Weiner, and saw it being pushed like crazy by fraudster Andrew Breitbart, I knew it would turn out to be yet another phony story. And that’s exactly what happened.”
Charles Johnson 30 May 2011

Woot. The Clown Posse Rides again. Charles Johnson jumped on the left running board of 1930s smear liberalism, honking the horn all the way, and rode it right into the ditch. Although Breitbart hasn’t been wrong yet,  Andrew’s learned about dealing with the left-wing media hounds who were loosed on him regarding PENIS PENIS PENIS LOLgate.

To be fair, Charles The Consistent was merely echoing the talking points distributed by the leftist media in defense of a slimeball who sent images of his privates to the public… some of whom were apparently underage.

Charles only forwarded the fabricated memetrope and declared Weinergate to be a fraud. His Lizard Army picked up the ball and ran with it. They deduced that it was Andrew Breitbart who set up a clever sting operation in which his spies tracked NY Dem Rep Anthony Weiner into a mens’ locker room. Breitbart’s spies waited until Weiner had a woody, then sidled up next to him and took a picture from a cellphone camera while pretending to check email, and all without Weiner taking notice.

Once they cropped and enhanced the images, they hacked into Weiner’s yfrog account to post the embarrassing pictures to young girls and a porn actress so that Breitbart could claim credit (for busting a married democrat for lewd and lascivious behavior) and eventually rule the world. Fucking brilliant.

Charles, you owe Breitbart an apology, because once again, you’ve pwnd yourself.

April Fools Day in Россия = Lenin Fart Day

Apparently there’s a tradition in Russia that involves decorating/desecrating/mocking the ubiquitous statues of Lenin on April Fools Day, and this one in particular is in a class by itself.  From the excellent website English Russia:

And so, on April Fool’s Day they made Lenin Fart Day, with putting 300 gram TNT explosives inside the monument that was located in very busy city square of seven million population Russian city.

Then at designated hour they heard a boom. Be sure it was heard by hundreds or even thousands of passers by as this unfortunate Lenin statue was right in front of St. Petersburg’s railway station.

The consequences might be very rough for the ones who made this happen, but it is still unclear have they been found or not.

Other examples of anti-Lenin pranks can be found here.

Oh yeah. This is a shamelessly open thread.
