For those of you who miss the days of having a President who could not complete a thought in the English language – there’s a rainbow on the horizon.  Michelle Bachman on her migraine headaches:

But I’d like to be abundantly clear: My ability to function effectively will not affect my ability to serve as commander in chief.

Does anybody know what that means?

If Paul Krugman ever comes to town, Juanita will hurt you to get on the front row and flirt with him.  She is sweet on that man.  One time Verdelia ended up looking like that Rebekah Brooks woman because Paul Krugman came on teevee while Juanita was giving her a perm.

Krugman did a blog post yesterday on the ethical bonfire of Glenn Beck selling gold on his show.  Beck, with a financial stake in Goldline, had much to gain by pushing pushing fears of hyperinflation.

But, even more enlightening was this comment by a reader —

You didn’t push your analogy far enough.

The primary market for Gold recently has been fiscal conservatives. Many of those same affluent conservatives either supported or became recent inductees into the House of Representatives.

Because gold is in theory a hedge against Hyperinflation, arguably if the United States defaults on its debt, the value of gold goes up and these conservatives stand to make a killing. If the United States becomes solvent, the price of gold will go down and a lot of fiscal conservatives stand to loose a lot of money.

Have I told you lately that I just hate Republicans?  Well, I hate those sons of motherless goats.  I do.  They will steal little kids’ lunch money.  I’m still hoping they’re just temporary.

For pete's sake, check his feet for cloven hooves

Rick!  Give him his money back!  We already have fires and brimstone in Texas.  We don’t need locusts, too.

Thanks to Mike for the heads-up.

And while you’ve got Rick Perry on the mind, think about this surge of brain and ethical power.  Rupert Murdoch gave $1.25 million to the Republican Governor’s Association.  And they’re bragging about it like it’s manna from heaven with God’s autograph on it.

AUSTIN — Gov. Rick Perry said Tuesday that it’s too early to judge whether the Republican governors group he leads should return contributions from News Corp., the company at the center of a growing phone-hacking scandal in Britain.

Too early?  Hasn’t Rick got someone to read the news to him?

“To judge Mr. Murdoch at this particular point in time is rather premature,” Perry said. He said the group, which aims to elect more Republican state executives, takes in contributions of “tens of millions of dollars made by a host of individuals.” In a few instances, after donors were indicted, “monies have been given back,” he said.

Sooooo …. is Rick saying he’d take money from Cayce Anthony?

If he says he’s waiting for Murdoch to be indicted, that is hogwash.  Nope.  Then we’ll have to wait for him to be convicted.  And then we’ll have to wait for him to be pardoned.  Rick Perry will back up against a wall and suck a brick out before he’ll give that money back.

Thanks to David for the heads-up.

Keller, Texas, has not had a day under 100 degrees all month.  The average temperature in January is freezing.

Welcome to Rick Perry’s Texas.

Thanks to Bob for the heads-up.

Okay, what with Sarah Palin’s movie being about as popular as a boil on your butt and Rupert Murdoch being grilled on teevee by the British Parliament, The World’s Most Dangerous Beauty Salon, Inc. is declaring this International Schadenfreude Day.

That means you get to do a  spontaneous little happy dance in the center aisle of the grocery store, giggle in a crowded room for no apparent reason for those around you, smirk at will, put the little pot in the big pot and fry the skillet, and cut the wolf loose.

I truly enjoyed hearing Rupert Murdoch say, “This is the most humble day of my life.”  “So far,” I smirked.

Now, if Michelle Bachmann’s husband will have a press conference to admit that he has uncontrollable lust for Tom Cruise, I’ll sneeze glitter for the rest of the day.
