Live! From Key Largo! Johnny Rocco! We’ll be here all weekend.

Did you know that today is National Day of Un-plugging?

Probably not, if you’re reading this. 

Yes, it’s official: regardless of what Vlad does, we intend to unplug in the Florida Keys as a family this weekend. After a joint appearance of the Wons at a Coral Gables high school to deliver the pre-vacation obligatory speech on the importance of getting an overpriced college education.

Besides, that whole Moscow/Kiev situation could stand a little unplugged cooling-off period if you ask me. So even if BO decides he has to return to the Big White so he can pretend to attend National Security meetings, Lady M and the Wee Wons will remain to enjoy the sun, sand and surf. Butt don’t worry, if Barry has to plug-in and go home early to look concerned, at least that will give him time to get a jump start on his March Madness brackets.

Are you done yet Pete? I’ve got to get back to work for the American people on my iPad.

Anyway, while you deal with ice, snow and freezing rain this weekend, at least you can vicariously enjoy the beautiful Florida weather the Wons will have on their (3rd!) vacation getaway of the year in Key Largo:

Since you’re here, I assume you’re not participating in Unplugged Day so I though you might enjoy a scene from the classic Bogart film Key Largo. It’s from my 2011 post, Obama’s Rocco Recovery Plan. For the record, we’re still waiting patiently for that Recovery Plan to kick in. Anyway, here’s Johnny Rocco, live from Key Largo:

IMPORTANT NOTE FOR FACEBOOK USERS: SOME PISSANT MUST HAVE FILED A COMPLAINT WITH THE GODS OF FACEBOOK BECAUSE THEY’VE JUST NOTIFIED ME THAT MY ACCOUNT WAS BEEN PERMANENTLY DISABLED BECAUSE I’M A GADGET, NOT “A REAL PERSON.” I VEHEMENTLY OBJECT, BUTT LIKE WITH BIG GUY’S SYSTEM OF GOVERNMENT, THERE IS NO PROCESS FOR APPEAL IF YOU’VE BEEN DEEMED TO BE SUBVERSIVE.

SO IT LOOKS LIKE I WILL BE INVOLUNTARILY “UNPLUGGED” FROM FACEBOOK FOR EVER. MY WHOLE PAGE HAS BEEN “POOFED” AND I GUESS I’VE BEEN SENT TO RE-EDUCATION CAMP.

AS THIS SIGNIFICANTLY IMPACTS MY ABILITY TO SPREAD THE WORD OF THE WONS, I WOULD APPRECIATE YOUR HELP IN PASSING MY FUTURE POSTS AROUND. IF YOU HAVE A FACEBOOK ACCOUNT, PLEASE POST A LINK TO MY DAILY MUSINGS. IF YOU HAVE A TWITTER ACCOUNT, PLEASE RE-TWEET ME!

THANKS FOR YOUR HELP.

I WONDER IF FACEBOOK HAS BEEN AUDITED RECENTLY? I’LL TWEET LOIS!

Obama’s Rocco Recovery Plan

In case you were wondering – and I know you were – the answer is yes! Lady M will be present to listen to Big Guy’s speech tonight. She’ll be in her special FLOTUS peanut gallery (which has room for 20 special props du jour). Joining her this evening will be a whole bunch of little people who wouldn’t have jobs butt for Big Guy’s generous use of your tax dollars to “invest” in his favorite kind of “infrastructure for the future” -  railroads and high-speed off ramps. We had some people from the green energy business lined up too, butt apparently they got laid off last week and can’t afford the trip.

The joint sessions of Congress always provide us with fashions worthy of royalty; opportunities to display Lady M’s considerable talent for selecting and wearing extraordinary fashions.

Like these SOTU frocks from the past: he incredible inflating butt plum dirndle, and the platinum pre-wrinkled Jackie sheath.

In the past, we’ve gone dark and we’ve gone light. I’m guessing a nice, grey mid-tone for tonight’s fashion statement on our economic recovery. Either that or red.

So, only a few more hours before we find out exactly how Big Guy intends to fix the economy. I’ve seen his draft: I call it his “Rocco Recovery Plan”

“After an $830 billion "economic recovery" plan, two auto bailouts, cash for clunkers, mortgage bailouts and at least two subsequent jobs programs, Obama wants to convince the country that just a little bit more stimulus is what the economy needs to finally get back on track".

I sure HOPE, there aren’t many others who HOPE for a world with no place for Johnny Rocco!

While our official term for Big Guy’s economic strategy is “doubling down,” apparently there isn’t enough money left in the entire world to play our hand that way, so we’re just going to ask for a little bit more. To prove to our supporters that “we are on correct path now, comrades!”

I’m sure Big Guy is glad he moved his big speech to this evening, because he wouldn’t have wanted to miss the R-word debate at the Reagan Library last night. The bad news for the Big White coming out of the debate is that every one of the R-word candidates were deemed to be winners. The only losers on deck last night appear to have been Brian Williams and John F. Harris.

They both seem to have forgotten their briefing books and as result were left to shuck and jive instead. Although that may just be a new progressive strategy they’re trying out.

They managed to get through the debate, butt forgot to ask some of the questions that R-word viewers might have liked to see the candidates respond to, like anything regarding the nation’s precarious fiscal situation.It must have slipped their minds. Butt  they did manage to inquire about Rick Perry’s sleep habits.

It’s still a bit perplexing why the R-words continue to let the enemy camp define the who-what-why-and-how of their debates. Sheeze! I thought the hawkish R-words studied the Art of War.

"If an enemy has alliances, the problem is grave and the enemy's position strong; if he has no alliances, the problem is minor and the enemy's position weak."

Beware of those alliances; they present grave problems.

American Capitalism: Chopped, Rolled and Smoked

Can you blame Hillary for believing America has already embraced European-style socialism and plans her campaign strategy accordingly?

Welcome to America: the new cheese-eating surrender monkeys.

Her approach — outlined in interviews with aides and advisers — is a bet that social and demographic shifts mean that no left-leaning position Clinton takes now would be likely to hurt her in making her case to moderate and independent voters in the general election next year.

Our federal food stamp (SNAP) program tops out at $74 billion/year and “according to GAO, there are at least 18 different nutrition assistance programs, and together they spend over $100 billion annually of taxpayer funds.”  And still, progressive legislators complain that’s not enough.

“What do we want? We want more!” h/t Johnny Rocco

Possibly because we have a 37 year low “labor participation rate” - translation: 93 million people in America are simply “no longer in the workforce” – and in addition 40% of the 8.5 million officially unemployed are no longer even LOOKING for work! (So we can add another 3.4 million to that 93 million – assuming you know how to do your common core number bonds).

So again I ask: can you blame Hilz for running to the left? Not only does it look like we’ve embraced European-style socialism, butt it looks like we’ve even upped the ante. Therefore the ever pragmatic (some would say opportunistic) Hillary is prepared to embrace paid family leave, paid child care, higher minimum wage, and “affordable,” i.e. government paid, college and endless unemployment…all that in addition, of course, to HillaryKare ObamaKare. All so your children and grandchildren will be able to “follow their bliss.”

So that’s that: socialism! That’s what we need more of around here!

Cuba’s successful experiment with European socialism will now serve to enlighten our economic policies and political ideology for generations to come.

After all, Havana (above) was Detroit (below) before Detroit was even Detroit

So rather than fight it, what do you say we just sit back and enjoy a lovely Havana?

And because America’s had enough of old, white socialist guys, what say we rally around a Clinton/Warren ticket in 2016?

This political message was brought to you by the Clinton Global Initiative where our motto is: Smoke ‘em if you’ve got ‘em
