Best Picks of the Grapevine (VIDEO)

This country increased its domestic output 17% last year, and 13% this year. The number of registered companies rose at almost 400%, and salaries rose at 100% over the last three years. So which country is this? Why, if you must ask, it’s Iraq! But you’d never know that to watch the MSM. You have to catch the Grapevine.

Oh, and guess what the number one job is that’s being sought by record numbers of Iraqis? Why, if you must ask, it’s “Executioner!” Seems everybody in Iraq wants to take that job so they can exact their revenge on Saddam Hussein. Wait, I thought things were better under Saddam??? Anyway, they want him to be hung in public, but he’ll be actually hung at Camp Cropper, where he’s currently being housed.

Camp Cropper. Heh.

Watch the Iraqi bit of the Grapevine here.

A Very Slow News Day (VIDEO)

This was hysterical. Look at the seriousness on these reporterettes’ faces as they ask Tony Snow why the First Lady’s skin cancer issue was not revealed to the public sooner. Was it because of health privacy laws? Was it because of White House secrecy? Was it because it was “no big deal”?

Nosy reporterette

Well, pardon me, but every time I now go to get a new prescription, I have to fill out the HIPPA form at the counter. Whose business is it of these reporterettes that the First Lady has a medical issue? One even puts it into the context that if she would have come out sooner with the info, she could be a voice for the cause. WTF?
