The President MUST Be Involved in an Issue to Invoke Executive Privilege

By now, you probably know that President Barack Obama invoked executive privilege to stall Congress' attempt to get Attorney General Eric Holder to fork over documents in the Fast and Furious Scandal.

You probably also know, by now, that Obama explicitly spoke out against executive privilege before he was president, saying "the American people need to know what's going on," in yet another classic "do as I say, not as I do" moment brought to you by the first dictator in the history of the United States.

But did you know the president has to be involved in a situation in order to invoke executive privilege?

From the files of Congress:

Under those precedents, the privilege, which is constitutionally rooted, could be invoked by the President when asked to produce documents or other materials or information that reflect presidential decisionmaking and deliberations that he believes should remain confidential.

Note the emphasized language, and the grammar of the sentence that leaves no doubt that the president MUST be involved in whatever issue for which he invokes executive privilege: "when asked to produce documents or other materials or information that reflect PRESIDENTIAL DECISIONMAKING AND DELIBERATIONS.


You won't hear this from the lapdog media. But, hey, I'm just a blogger.

So, what we have here, then, is the president not only protecting Holder, he's also protecting himself.


Meanwhile, over at Think Regress (see comments), the left  is rejoicing about the president's actions, once again, as leftists do, defending the indefensible.


I wonder how the president's new 800,000 voters feel about him covering up information about the murder of Mexicans.


UPDATE: Not only is the president apparently involved in F&F, he's illegitimately using executive privilege to shield wrong doing.

UPDATE II: Breitbart is saying this is deliberative process privilege, rooted in common law not the Constitution, and therefore Obama didn't invoke EP to protect himself.


UPDATE III: But Judge Napolitano says the implication the president is involved is in his actions of claiming executive privilege. H/T: YouViewed

The President MUST Be Involved in an Issue to Invoke Executive Privilege

Mantyhosers: Men in Tights (Because They Want It That Way)

We’re losing a war, men, and I’m not talking about the war for the White House. It’s a war on manhood. First there were bronies, men who watch and worship the TV show My Little Pony. Now, just when you thought you it was safe to pull your mancard out of your wallet and act like a caveman, comes mantyhose. Yes. Pantyhose for men. Control top for your tummy. Fashionable nylon to flash beneath your shorts. Outright insanity if you’ve ever considered yourself a man.

According to a growing number of … ahem … “men’s legwear” aficionados, you American men will be trading in your Montecristo No. 2s and flasks of 1792 bourbon for a Venus razor and Activeskin “legwear” any day now. (And, don't forget, you men with boobs will want to ask your wife if you can borrow her bra.)

Why, the mantyhose craze is sweeping Europe, just like socialism is, once again, after spilling over to America in 2008. I mean, the president wears mom jeans and throws like a girl and takes about as long as a woman to make a decision, changing his/her mind 20 times along the way.

It stands to reason that your manhood is going to swing, very soon, for … mantylines.

Hell, your wife will love rubbing up against you in mantyhose, considering that she’d probably rather slit her own wrists than wear a pair of her own hose to the office every damned day. Oh, and you’ll have to start shaving, another inconvenience more than one woman has told me she’d rather do without. Then again, one manly mantyhose man told me on Twitter recently, “Hair belongs only on one part of the body, that’s the head.” (You can stop laughing now.)

What the hell. Let’s go out of our way, men, to do all the things that annoy women, just to feel more womanly. Let’s win hearts and minds (and the metrosexual press, naturally, is eating up this disintegration of manhood), and step away from our mental demons telling us it’s bad to want to dress like a woman and roll up those legs -- BE CAREFUL! one at a time -- without starting a runner and head out to join the rest of the mantyhosers for International Men in Tights Day.

It’s all about style, man ... Wait. Is it man? Can I say that about a guy who wears pantyhose? Didn’t God send an 11th Commandment down from Mt. Sinai with Moses that said “Thou men shall not wear panty hose”?

Just. Make. It. Stop.

I think I need to go run with the bulls in Pamplona and suffer a concussion from a direct hit, just to erase from my mind the fact that I ever even heard the word “mantyhose.”

Hitler Learns Aaron Worthing (Walker) Case Has Been Dismissed

via the original Velvet Revolution

Heh. There's no better way to fight a bully like Brett Kimberlin than to pound him and pound him and pound him. And even when he appears to succeed in pissing all over your First Amendment rights, the wheels of justice reality prevails.

And the reality is we are all Aaron Worthing (Walker). True to Andrew Breitbart's next to last published words -- "apologize for what?" -- we will not apologize. We will not shut up. And we will not be stopped.

Hitler Learns Aaron Worthing (Walker) Case Has Been Dismissed

A Mind Is a Terrible Thing, Leftists

If I were to write a movie script to describe leftists, I'd call it "A Mind Is a Terrible Thing."

Yesterday on Twitter, while Barack Obama was giving his same speech, different day explanation of the country's economic situation, before leaving Cleveland smellier than he found it, I joined in a guilty pleasure, hashtag games, where snark is a premium and the closer you are to the truth with your tweet, the more it resonates.

This one resonated pretty well:

#ObamaSpeechIn4Words It is Bush's fault
— Snarky Basterd (@Snarky_Basterd) June 14, 2012

The fact that Twitchy grabbed up the tweet immediately says my aim was true. The fact that, by my current count, it's received more than 400 retweets, however, tells me there are more stupid people on twitter than those who participated in the 119% voter turnout in some parts of Wisconsin for the Scott Walker recall: About 90 percent of the retweets were from leftists, many of them young blacks. Most of the leftists thought I was sincere; many followed me. Some even got it, and the tweet got under their skin:

@Snarky_Basterd it's true..he started a war without raising taxes...what kind of "Conservative" would do that? if we say "Bush"-that's blame
— Jon Hartmann(@jonhartmannjazz) June 14, 2012

I used to think that leftists were clinically insane; now I just think they're stupid. Please make it stop.

I could argue that George Bush isn't to blame for unfunded entitlements to Social Security and Medicare (EXCEPT for the stupid drug plan he forced down our throat). I could argue that Bush isn't responsible for Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac or the equally bloated and destructive Banking Queen Frank-Dodd law. I could argue that Bush isn't responsible for 70 years of progressive policies aimed at chaining 50 percent of the people in this country to the slave post of government entitlements and/or tax irresponsibility.

But all leftists can scream is: "KATRINA! IRAQ! THE BUSH (Nancy Pelosi-Harry Reid) BAILOUT!"

Four years later, it's still Bush's fault. Bush is obviously responsible for this:

And this.

Bush is obviously responsible for Obama spending the first two years of his presidency paying back his union cronies and inserting Obamacare up our asses and trying to enslave us through cap and tax. Bush is obviously responsible for, AFTER NEARLY FOUR YEARS, real un- and underemployed figures that look like this:

No, leftists aren't insane; they're just stupid. Theywere  born into this world with an inability to connect with facts; they were born into this world with a brain cavity overflowing with liquid LSD; they were born into this world with unrealistic visions of unicorn dreams.

They were born into this world to prove that a mind is a terrible thing.

Stupid kills, leftists. Good luck with that.

A Mind Is a Terrible Thing, Leftists

Obama Needs More Bacon

When Barack Obama opens his ample mouth, people make fun of him. You can take anything the man says and turn it against him. It's just too easy.

Statements like this make my world go round (about Mitt Romney's 2012 campaign): "You can pretty much put their campaign on, on a tweet and have some characters to spare." (Notice the grammar gaffe, "on, on.")

Queue the LOLOLOLOL:

While we know from the president's mouth that Moochelle Obama doesn't quite like to put things in her mouth,  it's obvious that Obama needs to fill his own. I suggest more bacon; a nice Burger King bacon sundae ought to do the trick.

Moochelle might not approve, but then she has a habit of planning lavish, high-calorie dinners on your dime because, well, she can:

The White House has proposed mandating meals for elementary school kids that include none of these items, or anything like them. Here, for example, is the Wednesday lunch from a proposal on the White House website. 

Chef’s salad: (1 cup romaine, .5 oz low-fat mozzarella, 1.5 oz grilled chicken) with whole wheat bread
Soft pretzel (2.5 oz)
Corn, cooked (1/2 cup)
Baby carrots, raw (1/4 cup)
Banana
Skim chocolate milk (8 oz)
Low fat ranch dressing (1.5 oz)
Low fat italian dressing (1.5 oz) 

Here’s what the governors got: 

Garden salad
Bread and butter
Ribeye steak 12 oz
Creamed spinach
Crab mac and cheese
Pear tart with ice cream
White wine 

Based on conservative estimates of caloric totals for each of the items that found their way to the governors’ plates, and assuming consumption of a single glass of wine from the bottles that were placed on the tables, the total intake amounted to about 2,250 calories. 

The recommended intake for an adult male during AN ENTIRE DAY is about 2,500 calories. For women, it’s about 2,000 calories.

You won't find that menu in Moochelle's new book, American Grown, but then again you have to show identification to get her to sign it while in most states you can vote if you're dead. It's all part of her Marie Antoinette act, telling you what's black and white for you to eat, all while she plays out 50 shades of grey on a daily basis as only a Demorrhoid can.

Dinner is even better if you attend an Obama fundraiser:

And break out your roulette wheel. You, too, can choose the next celebrity guest for a fundraising dinner! My lucky stars; I think it should be Madonna, baring itty bitty titty.

Such is life when you spend too much time jetting around the world, while your husband golfs and smashes fundraising records. It's hard to keep your focus. Did someone say we need more jobs?



Speaking of jobs, the Theft-Winger in Chief's Twitter account has been tweeting incessantly about the importance for the nation to hire more federal firefighters and teachers, the president apparently forgetting that there aren't any to begin with.

Which begs the question: Was it a Chevy Volt?

Bacon, Mr. President. Fill that big mouth with bacon. You may also want to try some Cherokee.

Obama Needs More Bacon

Without the Lapdog Media, Obama Is Doomed

Minister of Disinformation Jay Carney and the rest of Barack Obama's minions are running scared.

For the first time in a long time the national press called Obama out yesterday, for his "doing just fine" comment last week on the state of the private sector economy. (Except Juan Williams, who parroted Obama, his central processing unit showing its usual signs of damage.)

Carney's response to the press: "you all ought to do your jobs and report on the context" of Obama's gaffe.

I can simply refer you again to what the President talked about as he stood here before you in the context of his rather full discussion of the state of the economy, and the simple fact that in this recovery has seen 4.3 million jobs in the private sector created – it has also seen a situation where, because of massive layoffs of teachers, firefighters and police officers – a reduction in the public sector. And by public sector, we’re talking about state and local governments who have had to layoff teachers from classrooms, firefighters from the force and police officers from the force. That was the context of his comments which I think everyone in this room was aware of at the time.

I watched Obama's "rather full discussion" of the state of economy, resisting the urge to commit seppuku. What I heard was lethargic script reading. He said nothing we didn't already know. Obama was about as lively as a dead fish, except during the questioning period following his "rather full discussion"-- in which he said, with his usual arrogance, that it was offensive for the GOP to accuse his administration of being the source of national security leaks. (Shockingly, it turns out the Obama machine probably is.)

In fact, Obama's defiance in the face of questions about sensitive information leaks is exactly what Carney demonstrated yesterday. Carney's blustering was symptomatic of the administration's official policy in response to controversy: Bully, bully, bully.

And it's more revealing of what's really bothering the administration: If the lapdog media is finally waking up from a four-year Obama high, if the lapdog media is going to start questioning this president and his record (or lack thereof), if the lapdog media is going to start moving toward giving even 10% fair coverage in this election, Obama's in for a tough road.

Obama NEEDS the lapdog media. The lapdog media made Obama because they didn't vet him. The lapdog media didn't tell voters about Jeremiah Wright. The lapdog media didn't tell voters about Bill Ayers. The lapdog media didn't tell voters Obama's ties to ACORN. The lapdog media didn't question the lack of transparency from the candidate who promised the most transparent administration in history. Instead, the lapdog media were caught up in hope and change and presumably snorting unicorn farts. The election of the first black president of these now fractured United States promised to eradicate hundreds of years of bad treatment of minorities in this country in one fell swoop. It would reverse history. It would transform America into a utopia. It would heal all wounds and stem all tides and spread rainbows across the land. Consider the saccharine profile the Washington Post ran on Obama on August 22, 2008.

Mitt Romney, meanwhile, doesn't need the lapdog media. He's already overcome an anti-saccharine, trumped-up WaPo story about his so-called bullying youth and the administration's fiasco in using the lapdog media to denigrate Romney's tenure at Bain Capital, which didn't turn out to be 1/10th as bad as Obama 2012 and the media claimed it was. (Always remember, the lapdog media will tell you one or two "bad" facts but leave out 10 other positive facts, in order to advance the left's narrative.) Romney, in fact, has us, the legion of electronic conservative pundits and activists and everyday citizens who've had enough of the socialist nightmare freight train we're on. Obama has Media Matters, living-with-mom-@Shoq, Mother Jones, and a host of other energized but failing online rejects who couldn't hold a candle to us if we gave them all the wax and wicks in this country.

And we've vetted Romney. We excoriated him during the brutal Republican primaries. We've been harder on him than a rattlesnake treats its prey. I'd wager that, if Romney wins, his administration is going to pay a lot more attention to what the online community and the American people as a whole are telling him about the state of the country than Obama did, probably because he won't be breaking any presidential golfing or fundraising records. He'll be too busy cleaning up after the Demorrhoid in Chief.

The lapdog media isn't going to win any fans. They're not going to do 1/32nd of the job that we will. They've become a de facto arm of the government, and, when leftists are in charge, as long as the president isn't sleeping with interns, they've been content to massage press releases and bland statements from the Whitehouse and pass them off as their own insights.

Until, apparently, now.


If the lapdog media is waking up, if they're becoming aware, if they're finally starting to question this administration, Obama might as well just pack up and quit now, while he's behind.

Heh. This is my LOLOLOL of the day. (via @DeusVult1911 on Twitter)

I'm no birther, but I find it just hysterical that Barack Obama would use the URL www.barrysoetoro.com as a duplicate for www.whitehouse.gov. Same banners, same drop downs, same revolving featured posts.

Who, knows? Either the Left has hijacked the Whitehouse site, or maybe Obama does have a sense of humor. Or maybe he's just so desperate he thinks he can appeal to the birther crowd. Good luck with that.

UPDATE: (Via @jStablehand on Twitter). The www.barrysoetoro.com site is registered here. WND (yeah, I loathe to link to them, but) says it's a hoax.

Anyway, it's for sale! And it will certainly be after sale November 6, 2012.

UPDATED: HOAX ... Obama Must Be a Satirist; BarrySoetoro.com Lives

Racist Congress Sets Contempt Vote for Holder

I just KNEW that GOP Congress was racist.

They send nearly 30 jobs bills to Dirty Harry Reid's desk, but he won't sign them because ... they're racist. They won't cooperate with Demorrhoid in Chief Barack Obama's agenda because ... they're racist. They call Obama out of touch for saying the economy is "doing just fine" because ... they're racist.

Now they want to hold Attorney General Eric Holder in contempt of Congress.

That's. Just. Racist. Why, it's criminal to suggest Holder has withheld information from Congress about Fast and Furious. After all, he has Superior Knowledge.

The Justice Department has maintained it has cooperated fully with the congressional investigation, turning over tens of thousands of documents and having Holder testify to Congress on the topic at least eight times.

However, Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Calif., says the Justice Department has refused to turn over tens of thousands of pages of documents. Those include materials created after Feb. 4, 2011, when the Justice Department wrote a letter to Congress saying no gunwalking had occurred. The Justice Department later retracted the denial.

"The Obama Administration has not asserted Executive Privilege or any other valid privilege over these materials and it is unacceptable that the Department of Justice refuses to produce them. These documents pertain to Operation Fast and Furious, the claims of whistleblowers, and why it took the Department nearly a year to retract false denials of reckless tactics," Issa wrote in an announcement of the vote to be released shortly. It will reveal the vote is scheduled for Wednesday, June 20.

But that's just Issa grandstanding. In a day and age when the racist GOP accuses the Supreme Leader of the Less Freer Than We Were in 2008 World of leaking classified information in attempt to boost his I Killed Bin Laden MYSELF image in time for the election, it's just time to stop being so damned offensive.

Fast and Furious was a routine government operation. Just like Ruby Ridge. Just like Waco. There's nothing to see here; just move right along, GOP.

Why, Holder's such a stand-up guy he's even investigating the classified information leaks himself. Kudos to him for not wasting the taxpayer's money on an independent council. It's better to look yourself for where you stashed your dirty underwear.

In fact, if the GOP wasn't so racist, they might be congratulating the president on his win in Wisconsin last week. After all, the sky really isn't blue (since NASA no longer rockets into space to check), the 1%er tax payment checks are in the mail to the IRS, and, since Michelle Obama doesn't go all the way down, Obama isn't ... ahem ... leaving anything in anyone's mouth any time soon.

Except the word "GOTCHA."

UPDATE: Apparently 31 Demorrhoids are racist too.

Racist Congress Sets Contempt Vote for Holder

Death is yours ... if you want it

I am an expatriate in reverse. I left America to find America. When I returned, I found America a writhing, swollen, tumor infested beast, wriggling in the throes of death.


That was nearly 20 years ago. It takes a long time for a bloated bureaucracy to die.


Now I sit on my front porch and monitor the decay from an iPhone, like some detached scientist, keeping data, talking notes, bookmarking doom, plotting charts that prove my hypothesis: We're all going to die.


I am a prognosticator, a Nostradamus, ready to flip to the last page of the Mayan calendar. A false prophet.


Of course we're all going to die; humans weren't meant to be immortal. Thank God for that. The problem is we are all dying of loss, a loss of self, a loss of responsibility, a loss of personal dignity. Premature rigor mortis. We still live and breathe and pump cholesterol clogged blood through our veins. But outside we die a nanosecond at a time as the world passes by, microscopic oblivion ex utero.


When nearly 50 percent of the taxpayers pay no tax at all and demand that the 10% of the highest earners who already suffer 70% of the tax burden pay more, when we give up basic freedoms for the "comfort" and "security" of government "protection," when we eschew freedom for "safety," only death is inevitable. The death of individuality. The death of rational thought. The death of a way of life we couldn't possibly have had anywhere else. The death of a country.


So I sit here on my porch, watching it all, trapping the images in these words, photographing in hi definition the end.


It's a God-damned comedy of horrors.


...............................................................................................................................................................


The news is filled with cannibalism. A man takes synthetic bath salts and chews off the face of another man in broad daylight on a Miami causeway. Both are naked. No one knows why. A gay porn star mails pieces of human flesh to political offices. He sends videos to fans. He blames Hollywood.


The paranoid fear the zombie apocalypse is nigh. It's been here for decades, if not a century. We just never noticed.


Zombie politicians began devouring our lives, our freedoms, our human-ness long before the images of freaked out psychopaths scrolled across our 50-inch TV screens, the very ones on which we watched Jeopardy and American Idol and Jersey Shore, while zombie cannibals in our local municipalities and state capitols and the District of Criminals gutted us from within. And it wasn't even surreptitious. The gutting occurred before our very eyes. We were just too blind to see. Now we live on life support: HDTV, Xbox, takeout Chinese. We get fat from Big Gulps and digital over-stimulation, as we bleed our insides out into government coffers, knowingly.


We are not sheep: we are slaves.


...............................................................................................................................................................


When I lived in Germany in the early 90s, a soldier "fighting for my country" in a guard shack, I'd walk around the villages and cities of my adopted country and meet people who were in denial. When you start two world wars and eviscerate the population of a continent, you no longer have a sense of self. Socialism was rampant. Kids graduated from high school expecting the government to cradle them. Government assistance checks were a badge of honor. If you were a young woman and uncomfortable with your bra size, a government boob job magically transformed your confidence. A good day was drinking your way through breakfast and lunch and dinner and collapsing on a bench at a bus stop. Four years in the pit of a cradle to grave society taught me there was no better place on earth than America.


But what I came back to wasn't what I had left. I've seen federal government agents kill American citizens for no reason at all. I've seen young people no longer embrace the values my parents taught me: work hard, be your own man, expect nothing but what you earn by the sweat of your own brow. It's as if I came back only to find I was still living in the apathetic society I'd left behind in Germany. I returned to participation trophies for being born and people spending $100,000 to earn sociology degrees so they can never earn more than $50,000 a year.


I came back to madness.


It's accelerated beyond belief these past four years. My iPhone wants to replace "people" with "proletariat" as i type. Free has now replaced freedom as the fundamental purpose of life in America. Satire is now reality; we're living a Ray Bradbury novel, an Ayn Rand prophecy, a George Orwell realization.


................................................................................................................................................................


Aphorisms for our times race through my head. Weird scenes inside the dumb mind. Something wicked has already come. What rough beast slouches toward Washington to make you bow down.


We've been living in strange times for as long as I can remember. I was born during Vietnam; I now write during Americanam. The yoke of government is so locked around our necks I fear we may never break free.


The days ahead are dangerous. When a sitting president who has accomplished nothing but corruption and anguish and doled out more than your fair share of abuse has a chance to win re-election, we may already be over the cliff.


In these spend times we are nearing end times. The center cannot hold. It's already beyond being off axis.


In the coming 5 months we have a decision to make. Do we let our country die? Do we let our way of life die? Do we let ourselves die?


Choosing Mitt Romney over Barack Obama is infinitely more palatable than continuing on this path of destruction we follow. We have great sacrifices to make. We will have to retire later than we planned. We will have to expect less government entitlements than we were "promised" when we were forced to give the government our money to fund them. Then more money. And still more money. (Hell, every year we vote to tax ourselves locally for infrastructure projects many of us never see come to life, because often that money is diverted to other expenditures, just like the entitlement taxes we pay.) We will have to make the biggest gut check of our lives. We will have to hold the limbs of the people we elect to take over this monstrosity to more than just a fire; we will have to tie them to a rack and torture them, if necessary, to right this sinking ship.


I don't know if we have the stomach for it. I don't know if we are brave enough. I don't know if we can disconnect from the shroud of unreality we create for ourselves to get through every second and minute and hour of every day.


But we must. If we don't, it's all over. And the death throes our country has been experiencing for longer than I've been alive will accelerate.


And it will entirely be our own fault.


We'll have to live with that, until we don't. Live, that is.

Breitbart IS John Galt

Guest post by The John Galt Line

Andrew Breitbart is a force of nature, and I use the current tense intentionally; he will never leave us. Many words have been said about his passing. Many tears have been shed. Shock over his death was not an uncommon emotion and while the conservative community rallied and mourned, the progressives showed their true, gangrenous heart through the vitriol that they spewed in all communication mediums.

But enough about what happened. Let us focus, instead, upon what is…and that “is” is a BIG one, just as BIG as Breitbart and all his BIG websites.

Andrew Breitbart IS John Galt.

If you don’t know who John Galt is, I’m not sure if I should tell you to stop reading now and get thee to a library or a bookstore and read “Atlas Shrugged” or tell you to keep reading and THEN go get a copy. But I digress.

John Galt, beloved character of “Atlas Shrugged,” brought the men of the mind back to their senses. He taught them that they didn’t need to apologize for their success or their independence. “You are attacked, not for any errors or flaws, but for your virtues. You are denounced, not for any weaknesses, but for your strength.”

Breitbart was repeatedly attacked by the insidious left and he, unlike many of us before he came along, reveled in it. Andrew showed us that all we need to do is shine the light…and the truth…on the lies of the left and they will writhe and shrink like slugs with salt poured on them.

Galt and Breitbart both shrugged the feebleness of the left off their shoulders as if they were no more than a feather. When John Galt is asked by a looter what he thinks of the looter, Galt’s response is, “But I don’t think of you.” When told he should apologize for something, Breitbart’s response was, “Apologize for WHAT?”

Galt led the way to a better life by ignoring the left and Breitbart led the way by attacking them, but both showed that the left…the progressive, unscrupulous left of yesterday and today…are the antithesis of goodness and right.

And while John Galt took away producers from the world, Breitbart urged today’s producers to “run towards the fire!” He recognized the looter mentality of the progressive movement, most especially the progressive news media and their selective reporting, if not their outright lies, and he went toe-to-toe with all of them, begging them to prove him wrong. They never could.

It was his conviction in his rightness that makes Breitbart our Galt.

It was his fearlessness.

It was, most of all, his virtue.

Tax Breaks for Porn Staches

Leave it to Congresscriminals to spend their valuable time during these days of recession and massive unemployment uncovering groundbreaking ways to bring us, the little people, some relief:

The Stache Act (Stimulus to Allow for Critical Hair Expenses) aims to earn a well-deserved $250 annual tax deduction for every Mustached American for expenditures on mustache grooming supplies.

Maryland Rep. Roscoe (P. Coltrane) Bartlett (R) has referred the bill to the House Ways and Means Committee because, you know, having enough money to trim your porn stache properly is far more important than having a job to pay next year's tax bill. It's not as if Bartlett (who claims to be unaware that he referred the bill to committee) has other important matters to bring to the House floor, except maybe a bill that would make him piss in a cup so we can find out just what he's smoking.

But what the hell, a tax break is a tax break, right?

So as your attorney I advise you to cultivate that peach fuzz above your lip into the most glorious porn stache you've ever grown. Who knows: perhaps the better the mustache you grow the bigger the tax break you'll receive.

Here are some fine examples to emulate.

1. To choose between Tom Selleck and Burt Reynolds is like trying to decide whether to spike your coffee with arsenic or shoot up with heroin; each had arguably the worst porn stache of the late 70s and early 80s. But Reynolds wins this example, for his distinguished look as dirty old man Jack Horner in Boogie Nights.

2. Next up is Frank Zappa. This Catholic girl loving paragon of the weird actually gets points for being a Conservative, although if you can grow a stache like that, as your attorney I'd advise you to be on the lookout for the First Wookie to throw her panties at you.

3. If you can rip off anyone's stache, you may as well go for the Sam Elliot look. The hair flowing off your cheek bones alone is deserving of a $250 tax break, plus you'll immediately develop the ability to kick anyone's ass.

4. Since we're on the subject of porn staches, I'd be remiss if I didn't advise some of you to look like Ron Jeremy, who would have given himself a mustache ride if he could but should receive credit for being unsignificunt enough to be cast in this role in Boondock Saints.

5. In the interest of being fair, I have to include my recommendations for Liberals: Johnny Depp, who's ability to grow facial hair is about as bad as his grasp of politics, therefore making him the perfect model for any Liberal porn stache.

Finally, it's important to point out that not every male can grown a mustache. The president is a fine example. It's just not in his DNA (what with the First Wookie probably having more between her legs than he does). Sorry, Mr. President, the bill won't be giving anyone tax breaks for guys who like to rub their mustaches together.
