I'm sure it's just research and preparation for Hollywood fund-raisers.....

Michael "Flathead" Blanchard 1944 ~ 2012
A Celebration of the life of Michael "Flathead" Blanchard will be held on April 14th, 3 pm 8160 Rosemary St, Commerce City. Weary of reading obituaries noting someone's courageous battle with death, Mike wanted it known that he died as a result of being stubborn, refusing to follow doctors' orders and raising hell for more than six decades. He enjoyed booze, guns, cars and younger women until the day he died.
Mike was born July 1944 in Colorado to Clyde and Ethel Blanchard. A community activist, he is noted for saving the Dr. Justina Ford house from demolition and defending those who could not defend themselves. He was a Republican delegate, life member of the NRA, founder and President of the Dead Cats MC. He loved music.
Mike was preceded in death by Clyde and Ethel Blanchard, survived by his beloved sons Mike and Chopper, former wife Jane Transue, brother Stephen Blanchard (aka Susan), Uncle Don and Aunt Cynthia Blanchard (his favorite); Uncle Dill and Aunt Dot, cousins and nephews, Baba Yaga can kiss his butt.
So many of his childhood friends that weren't killed in Vietnam went on to become criminals, prostitutes and/or Democrats. He asks that you stop by and re-tell the stories he can no longer tell. As the Celebration will contain Adult material we respectfully ask that no children under 18 attend.H/T IHTM
The course of events lately, namely Sandra Fluke and the mythical 'War on Women' opened up the chance for the democrats to wind up the ol' propaganda machine in great style this campaign season. But in this case, it may not be working, at least so far.
Jay Cost of the Weekly Standard is excellent at deciphering polls. His latest column deciphering this weeks ABC/Washington Post poll spells major trouble for Obama. Here’s part of what he wrote:
"Yesterday, a new ABC News/Washington Post poll seemed to confirm the meme that Barack Obama is pummeling Mitt Romney among women, helping the former open up a 7-point lead in the general election horse race."
"What to make of this?"
"Well, for starters, the poll has an inexplicably large Democratic advantage; the party breakdown in the poll is 34 percent Democratic, 23 percent Republican, and 34 percent independent. As a point of historical comparison, the party spread in four of the last five elections since 2002 has basically been an even split between the two sides. In 2008, a “perfect storm” of bad news for the GOP, the party ID advantage was “only” +7. So, a Democratic advantage of +11 is an unjustifiable number, at least in terms of what the electorate is thinking."
You're in trouble when you lead by 7 points but they oversampled your ‘supporters’ by 11 points. That's like hearing your spouse say that there's a 60% chance you'll still be together a year from now. That isn't a ringing endorsement.
Unfortunately for Bo, that's just the tip of the iceberg. I’ll guarantee that this statistic has David Axelrod drinking a bottle of Maalox each day and Debbie Waddler Schultz smoking the Marlboros to the nub:
"President Obama’s handling of the economy: 23% strongly approve, 21% somewhat approve, 12% somewhat disapprove, 42% strongly disapprove.."
This result is more troubling for President Obama:
"The situation with gas prices: 14% strongly approve, 14% somewhat approve, 12% somewhat disapprove, 50% strongly disapprove".
Remember, these numbers are actually propped up by the unjustifiable oversampling. If the sample accurately reflected the party identification figures, those results would look even worse for Dear Leader. Any body remember the DNC poll showing Gore up by 6 in Florida two days before the 2000 election?
If Obama can't turn those figures around fast, he'll get thumped this November. It's a distinct possibility that he'll get fewer electoral votes this year than McCain got last time.
Though I can't find the link for it, I saw a poll yesterday that showed President Obama leading Mitt by 5 points in Michigan. That's trouble for Obama because the president thrashed Sen. McCain in Michigan 57% to 41%. HINT: If Obama is fighting to win Michigan, he’s heading for a lost state.
Obama is rightly called incumbent now. If these polling figures don't turn around by Election Day, the term one-term wonder will be most appropriate.
Sounds good don't it?
Middle Finger News has learned DNC computers were compromised by a super secretive group of tech savvy anarchists known only as 'Bob'.
An anonymous spokesman for 'Bob' told us they recently hacked into DNC Chairwomen Debbie Wasserman Schultz's personal computer. Reportedly, the feat was accomplished by a female member in South Korea who correctly guessed Wasserman's password might be "Debbie".
Included in the information leaks are notes and power-point presentations from the re-election strategy meetings of President Obama. But Bob said most info found was "the same ol' shit" like enemies lists and democrat smear tactics, but did find some very interesting unicorn drawings made by Vice President Joe Biden in Microsoft Paint while attending the meetings.
SHREVEPORT, LA (KSLA) -Michelle Obama has marked the one-year anniversary of her "Joining Forces" initiative with a visit to Shreveport-Bossier City.
The First Lady spoke for less than 20 minutes at the Kansas City Southern Railway company in North Shreveport. There was no teleprompter in sight.
In August 2011, President Barack Obama announced a series of policies to increase veterans' employment and asked the First Lady and Dr. Jill Biden to lead an effort through Joining Forces to challenge the private sector to hire or train 100,000 veterans and military spouses by the end of 2013.[snip]
