Another no brainier this week. Let's look at the runner ups.
1)Homeland Security- This week DHS seized at least 75 domain names for copyright infringement. I don't remember them having this ability but low and behold they do apparently. All who were taken down had content or links to content that had copyrighted material. With the new anti-copyright infringement bill sailing through Congress (and who said there was no such thing as bi-partisanship), this may become common place and effectively shut down whole sections of the Internet, including legitimate sites like Drudge Report or Newsmax. The new Gestapo rules again.
2)Mohamed Osman Mohamud- This Somali born teenager, 19, tried to blow up the Portland Christmas tree lighting ceremony. There was never any real threat as the FBI in a rare show of competence had the guy under surveillance all along and the "bomb" he had was inert. When he tried to set off the explosive by his cell phone, the feds arrested him as he shouted "Allah Akbar (God is Great)." I'm reminded of a quote from the movie Spawn. "How come God gets all the good ones and we get all the retards?" If this is the best the Muslim fanatical world can come up with, color me not afraid. To be honest, they haven't had a successful anything anywhere since the Bali massacre or the Mumbai attack. And that was just people shooting randomly at anything that moved. Their bomb making skills lie somewhere between a drunken teen and a retarded monkey. Let's not throw away our freedoms for this bunch. I think we can handle it ourselves.
3)TSA- Inundated with complaints and serious concerns from Congress and the ACLU, the TSA turned off their back scatter machines and performed less pat downs than usual this holiday season. Of course, they declared victory saying no one had opted out and everything ran smoothly. To them the protest fizzled. Only more people traveled by car this year than previous years, 13 percent more in fact. San Diego Airport is Gestapo central right now with a man arrested for striping down to his underwear rather than be searched. New Jersey lawmakers are looking into lawsuits filed against the TSA and anti-fourth amendment laws, all of which are being violated. Benjamin Franklin wrote "those that give up their rights for safety and security will receive neither." We must continue this fight before we are being strip searched for walking down the street. If the douchebag from Portland had seceded would this happen and would people allow it? I fear they would.
4)Obama, Congress and the American People- A close second to North Korea as several bills being looked at right now could make home gardens illegal, end free speech and make flea markets and garage sales a crime. The American people deserve some of the blame for electing these idiots but most has to go to the lying scum that are our electorate. Obama is by and far the worst. His campaign promises weren't worth garbage, making him the second president in a row incapable of telling the truth. Think what you want about Clinton but if you look back on his campaign promises he accomplished most of them. I wanted an FDR instead I got Bush again. His policies are going to help end this great country. And as he is all but certain to lose in the next election, short of a massive war breaking out (hmmmmmmmmm), will we get President Palin?
5)North Korea- With all sorts of scenarios playing out right now, North Korea may have just started WW3. Or maybe not. It's impossible to know at this point as we have zero info on the sheltered country. But it is possible nonetheless that all this could be the beginning of the end. North Korea could miscalculate a future attack and the reprisals could lead to disaster. Worse, our posturing at this point makes us look exceptionally weak. We cannot let North Korea control the dialogue anymore so sitting back and waiting for talks is a sure fire way to lose. Just ask the US before the attack on Pearl Harbor. We talked and talked with the Japanese, all the while they planned their attack against us. Could the North Koreans be doing the same? If Russia, China, Iran, Syria, Lebanon (which is due to fall any day now to pro-Syrian forces), Venezuela, and North Korea all decided to launch simultaneous attacks on US interests, we'd fall within days or the Earth would be a nuclear crisp. Some sort of punishment has to be handed to the North Koreans if for nothing else but for saving face. So congratulations to North Korea you are indeed douchebag of the week.
