Oh, Chris Christie Is The Smart One Now
In the debate the other night, Chris Christi said —
“When I stand across from King Hussein of Jordan, I say to him you have a friend sir who will stand with you to fight this fight,” Christie said during Tuesday’s Republican primary debate, making the case that the president is not trusted by the leaders of Jordan and Saudi Arabia because of the nuclear deal with Iran.
King Hussein of Jordan has been dead since 1999, so you gotta kinda wonder where Christie is gonna go to capitalized on that trust.
In 1999, Christie was working in a law firm in New Jersey so I can see how he could have missed the nightly news.
Here they are, Chris. They are both way cooler than you.
Any Democratic candidate for President is gonna eat these guys alive.
And Happy Holidays To You, Too, Sid
Regular customers know that Sid Miller, Texas Agriculture Commissioner, is the guy who took the culture out of agriculture.
In honor of the holiday season, he posted this on Facebook.
My friends are kinda taking after him in the nicest possible way, they same you would with a child who just said something very stoopid.

Miss Karma Gets Mr. Pharma
Remember Martin Shkreli, the CEO of Turing Pharmaceuticals, who upped the price of a life-saving drug from $13.50 to $750 per pill?
Remember his 32-year-old smirking face explaining that’s free enterprise and that alone makes him a better American than the people who are dying?
Remember how he was flat gleeful over becoming a multimillionaire and you wanted to smack his rear end?
Nah …. forget all that.
Here’s what you’ll want to remember about this guy.
Martin Shkreli, the price-gouging pharmaceutical company executive, was arrested early Thursday morning on securities fraud charges.
Prosecutors in Brooklyn charged him with illegally taking stock from Retrophin Inc., a biotechnology firm he started in 2011, and using it to pay off debts from unrelated business dealings.
That little nincompoop was arrested on securities fraud! Well, put the frying pan in the pot, call the dogs off the porch and get granny’s dancing shoes – there’s gonna be a party.
Thanks to Don for the heads up.
Fun With Guns: Your Butt Edition
Okay, if I ever get accidentally shot in the butt, please keep it as low key as this.
Here’s the entire story. It’s Gary, Illinois.
GARY | A Gary woman was shot in the buttocks Sunday morning in an apparent accidental shooting in the city’s Miller section, police said.
The 27-year-old woman was taken to a hospital for treatment after the shooting about 8:40 a.m. in the 5800 block of Forest Court, Lt. Dawn Westerfield said. The woman’s wounds were not life-threatening.
The circumstances surrounding the shooting remain under investigation, Westerfield said. She declined to release more details pending further investigation.
Look, enough said.
