Crazy Racist Tea-Bagger Attacks Innocent Black Comedian

Oh, my bad. I screwed up the headline. I meant it to read Crazy Racist Comedian Attacks Innocent Tea-Partier.

The New York Times bestselling author of the explosive new book, Hollywood Hypocrites: The Devastating Truth About Obama’s Biggest Backers, Jason Mattera, had his crew’s camera snatched and hurled by comedian Chris Rock when he asked the star why he has called the Tea Party racist.

Mattera's new book is available here. It sounds like a hoot.

Photo Sequence: Ryan Seacrest Gets Doused in Ashes by the Dictator

Think what you want about Sacha Baron Cohen, but the man knows how to market himself. Initially banned from attending the Academy Awards in costume, Cohen was later granted permission to stroll down the Red Carpet.

Interviewed while portraying the character from his forthcoming movie The Dictator, Cohen "accidentally" spilled the ashes of Kim Jong-Il all over Ryan Seacrest.

Turns out that that Kim had always wanted to visit the Red Carpet.

Cohen closed the sequence with a prepared punchline to Seacrest, delivered in a stilted accent: "Now, Brian, when someone asks what you're wearing, you can tell them Kim Jong-Il!"

Chinese Plutocrats Hire Migrant Workers to Wait in Line for New iPhone 4; Thomas Friedman Hardest Hit

Thomas Friedman (pronounced: fried - man) is a Marxist New York Times hack who simply loves China's form of government.

"There is only one thing worse than one-party autocracy, and that is one-party democracy, which is what we have in America today. One-party autocracy certainly has its drawbacks. But when it is led by a reasonably enlightened group of people, as China is today, it can also have great advantages. That one party can just impose the politically difficult but critically important policies needed to move a society forward in the 21st century." --Thomas Friedman

Yep, that's right: Friedman's pining for a totalitarian form of fascism.

To put it in the kindest terms.

So I'm sure this despicable human being will be ecstatic to hear how China's plutocrats are spending their money:

On January 13th, Apple’s new iPhone 4S was finally made available for purchase in China。By 7PM, over one thousands eager customers were lined up outside Beijing’s two official Apple Inc. retail stores, in Sanlitun and Xidan. The crowd was made up of a large number of migrant workers from Hebei province and Beijing’s Daxing...

...By 7pm, the crowd outside of the Xidan location had surpassed 1,000 people. This number includes the Apple store’s staff as well as police officers that were dispatched by the city government to maintain order at the scene.

...As the day went on, the crowd grew. Tensions rose when the clock struck 8pm and the promised dinner was still nowhere to be seen. Around the same time, it became evident that the number of Apple employees was insufficient to provide for the needs of the hundreds waiting in line. Some began to worry that after already waiting in line for a full day, they would still be unable to get their hands on the new cell phone.

The situation further intensified when those hired to wait in line began to worry that they would not be compensated for their hours of waiting, knowing that their pay was conditional upon whether or not they produced the iPhone 4s. Some began to abort the plan and headed home, still leaving several hundreds committed to waiting in line...

Someday I hope that Friedman, Sean Penn, Samuel L. Jackson -- and the rest of the clueless, incredibly wealthy freaks who take America for granted -- will get to experience life as a migrant in China.

Just for a couple of years. Or ten.

Such a lesson might help them better appreciate America, because they obviously don't have a semblance of a clue right now. They take their stunning wealth for granted, when the default condition for man is poverty, misery and an all-powerful government that suppresses individual liberty and expression. Kind of like being a migrant in the PRC.

Friedman and his ilk are disgraceful schmucks.

Malkin: Should the Secret Service be at all concerned that those Hollywood stars never showed up in the White House visitor logs?

You've probably heard by now that President and Mrs. Obama threw a crazily over-the-top, Hollywood-style Halloween Party in 2009, during the depths of the ongoing national recession. Alice in Wonderland director Tim Burton transformed the White House into a reproduction of the movie set; and stars Johnny Depp and Mia Wasikowska appeared in costume.

Of course, a compliant and docile legacy media reported none of this for fear of a political backlash.

But America's best independent investigative reporter, Michelle Malkin, noticed something interesting: none of the big Hollywood stars appeared in the White House visitor logs. The logs, of course, are all part of the administration's "commitment to government transparency."

Well, I’ve just finished scouring the White House visitor logs.

Regular readers know I seem to be one of the few in the media who actually does such a thing.

Regular readers also know that I’ve pointed out time and again that the logs are incomplete, misleading, obtuse, and designed to make it as difficult as possible to figure out who has visited and when.

So, it is no surprise that neither director Tim Burton nor actor Johnny Depp — hosts of the big 2009 Hollywood Halloween bash at the White House — show up in the visitor logs.

Perhaps the spokes-idiot Jay Carney will blame the Cheshire Cat; you know, that it used its cloak of invisibility to render Tim Burton, Johnny Depp and Mia Wasikowska invisible to the Secret Service.

So much for even the last shred of credibility the White House had regarding "transparency".

The accuracy of the White House Visitor Logs appear to be roughly equivalent to that of the rest of President Obama's promises. Which is to say, every one of this administration's pledges are backed by the full faith and credit of a Greek 20-year note.

Finally: Scientists Explain Michael Moore's Behavior

The headline of the article is -- and I quote -- "Fatty diet damages brain - study."

SCIENTISTS have found a high-fat diet damages a crucial region of the brain that controls body weight in rodents and believe a similar process may occur in obese humans.


Within 24 hours of being fed high-fat foods, rats and mice developed inflammation followed by scarring in the hypothalamus, a region that regulates body weight and food intake in humans and rodents. Animals fed the diet continuously for four weeks developed chronic inflammation and neuron loss.

Rosie O'Donnell could not be reached for comment at press time either.

And We Have a Winner: With Just Days Remaining, Whoopi Goldberg Wins 2011's Most-Doltish-Comment-on-"The View" Award

A normal person would have to drink a forty of stupid juice to match Joy Behar on even their worst day. But "normal" doesn't apply to Whoopi "Windy" Goldberg.

After mentioning the background of new leader Kim Jong Un and his education at a Swiss boarding school, Goldberg proclaimed, "...If you say that this is how our culture is and then you send your child to a Swiss boarding school. You know, this is what happens with communism. It's a great concept. On paper it makes perfect sense."

The comic added, "But once you put a human being in power, it shifts. We saw it in Russia, we've seen it all around the world."

After lauding the "great concept" of communism, Goldberg said of North Korea: "But, I keep my fingers crossed."

Co-host Joy Behar chimed in, "We wish them well in North Korea."

I wish both of them would express their good tidings to the new dictator in person.
