Remembering Our Heroes
- Monday was Veterans Day, and our DC Newsbreaker says Obama honored those who had given the last full measure of their devotion at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier at Arlington National Cemetery by dropping a “Jesus Bomb” after he climbed the stairs and entered the building. Veterans Day is the nation’s second most patriotic holiday, next to Independence Day on July 4, for those FCPS graduates who might not be able to remember the exact day. Maybe next year Obama can just lay a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknown Contributor in Chicago.
Whistleblower War Hero Ollie Hackworth says veterans are deeply disappointed. Regardless of what political party you endorse, you always saw pictures of prior Presidents at least pretending to be patriotic on Veterans Day.
The Blower remembers when Former President George W. Bush addressed a packed house at Wright Patterson Air Force Base in Dayton, Ohio. Dubya thanked all our brave Veterans who helped secure the freedoms we enjoy. No real Whistleblower reader would ever take them for granted. God bless America!
- The Blower also remembers when Semper Si and his bagpipers were swinging free under their kilts to celebrate Veterans Day on the 11th, but 1st LT Dave Gallaher, USMC says you may be sure he was also celebrating the Marine Corps birthday on the 10th. Happy 238th Birthday, Marines! Now for your next mission, go invade Berkeley.
- How about this 2008 birthday card to the Marines? It’s still makes you want to re-enlist.
- Yesterday at Applebee’s Restaurant, Charles Foster Kane (U.S. Army, Retired) was really surprised they weren’t offering “SOS” (Creamed Chipped Beef) to make Veterans really nostalgic, instead of the food they offered. If you’d like to try some “SOS” at home, here’s the recipe. Yum, yum— give us some!
- They weren’t offering “SOS” at Outback Restaurants either. What you got there was a free Bloomin’ Onion and a beverage.
- At The Fishwrap, Skaggie Maggie says, “I think we should change the traditional observance of Veterans Day to “Gay Marriages in the Military Day.’”
- Veterans at Monday night’s Skyline Dinner at the Anderson Center received hand written thank you notes from area school children that included “Thank you for serving when I was alive or not, you still protected the United States of America” from Mara at Nagel School, “Thank you for serving in the military. My grandpa was in the Navy” from Megan at Wilson Elementary; and “Why am I writing this letter to you? Because you helped protect our country” from a fourth grade student at Wilson who is really interested in playing tackle football.”
- Finally, our old war hero buddy PFC Kadon asked our Quote for Today Committee to honor Louie, the Waiter, who coined the couplet, “Send a Salami to Your Boy in the Army” in 1943 and who alone sold $2,060,000 worth of war bonds at the delicatessen in Manhattan where he was employed. Now let’s watch Jerry Lewis sing that famous song.
Not So Patriotically
- HURLEY THE HISTORIAN says on this date in 1982, the Vietnam Veterans Memorial was dedicated in Washington. Obama can hardly wait until the next government shutdown so he can close it down again. Hurley also says even Obama Supporters are stunned over Obama’s refusal to attend the 150th Anniversary of Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address next Tuesday. His dismissal of the request shows a man so detached from the duty of history, from the men who served in the White House before him, that it is unspeakable in its audacity.
- OUR QUOTE FOR TODAY COMMITTEE chose “Freedom is never free” by an unknown author.
- OUR LATE NIGHT JOKEWATCHER liked Conan O’Brien’s “Today Matt Lauer and Al Roker had prostate exams live on the ‘Today’ show. So the ‘Today’ show has finally cracked the code on what people want to see first thing in the morning.”
After all, we’ll all have a good chance to watch Americans getting jabbed up the ass during the Dark Ages of Obama’s Second Term for the next 1,164 days of Obama’s Second Term (unless he’s impeached). Don Feder says Obama’s America is a only mixture of disgust and dread. For those of us who grew up when America was still relatively sane, it’s a country we hardly recognize, where the pathological is normal and decency is derided.
- OBAMACARE UPDATE: Whistleblower Senior National Political Affairs Analyst Britt Humus says former president Bill Clinton delivered some blunt criticism of the sitting president, saying Obama should live up to his promise to Americans that if they like their health plans, they can keep them. You don’t imagine that has anything to do with Hillary’s aspirations for the Oval Office in 2016, do you?
- CRIME IN AMERICA: While Illinois State Senator Barry Barack Hussein Soetoro Obama’s senate district kills more people each night than the Iraqi and Afghanistan battlefields combined……without his guardianship…..it is in danger of falling into second or even third place, as the nation’s foremost killing fields; as the Illegal DemocRATS of Los Angeles and the legal DemocRATS of Detroit aggressively pursue the title.
- YOUR TAXES AT WORK: The downtown Cincinnati public library held its 59th Veterans Day program on Monday morning. Library head Kimber Fender was on the dais still looking like the fat sweaty Amish male farmer she is. Several hundred attended the event and were listening to a speaker when one of the library’s dirty smelly homeless porn guys slowly walked in front of the audience, scratching himself. Kimber just smiled.
- POLITICAL CORRECTNESS ALERT: Macy’s calling its Christmas tree on Fountain Square a “Holiday Tree” so Atheists, Homos, and Murdering Muslims don’t get offended.
- THE CINCINNATI MESS (only reported in The Blower) In recent years, DemocRATS have taken once beautiful cities and turned them into abject poverty zones. Chamber/Fishwrap endorsed candidates have moved Cincinnati into fourth place as the poorest city in America. (Detroit, Buffalo, Cleveland……Ohio being the only state with two in the poorest 10). Here is their analysis of the economic insights of these good folk such as Mr. Mann: “The Chamber believes this Council will serve the business community well as we work to strengthen the local and regional economy.”
The Blower hopes the day will come when they are insightful enough to support someone with the capacity to…………..oh, build a freaking bridge….for example.
And is construction work on the Trolley Folly really continuing? Maybe our Litigious Lawyers from COAST should file another lawsuit. The more it costs to tear up our streets, the more it will cost to put it all back. At least the Port Authority has announced its controversial parking lease with the City will be canceled. So Mayor Cranley is already batting .500 and hasn’t even been sworn in yet.
- LEGACY LETDOWN: Trouble-making Over-Taxed Payer Tino Delgato is trying to figure our Dainty DemocRAT Mayor Mark Mallory’s “Legacy.” It won’t be his Trolley Folly, because it got canceled. Just like his fabulous Parking Deal. The Banks was done by his predecessors and Hamilton County. Charlie Luken and his lobbyist friends got us the Casino. Maybe Mallory will just be remembered for visiting 30 Sister Cities at Over-Taxed Taxpayers’ Expense and, of course, Mahogany’s million dollar restaurant on the Banks.
Tino also wonders if they’ll be making a mark on the door frame in the mayor’s office when Diminutive DemocRAT John Cranley arrives. Cranley will the shortest mayor in America since Fiorello La Guardia, who was only five feet.
Speaking of Mallory’s aborted Trolley Folly, Bunky Tadwell the Bard of Cleves brings our Inspirational Thought for the Day: “Preconceived notions are seldom carried to full term.”
And was that really City Clowncil-man PG Sittenfeld’s dad who just got caught falsifying an education test and fined by the Ohio Department of Insurance?
- SHAKEDOWN IN THE CITY: Belligerent Black Blogger Nate “Rhymes With Hate” Livingston says his favorite corrupt Black Couple (Steve and Alicia Reece) are back to their old tricks. This time they’re trying to do a Jesse Jackson-style SHAKEDOWN of the Port Authority. Steve and Alicia Reece want the Port Authority to buy their crappy property on Seymour Avenue for top dollar. Is John CRANLEY really helping them?
- GAY NEWS UPDATE: When a Colorado College Application included “Queer” as a sexual orientation option along with “Male,” “Female,” “Transgender,” and “Not Disclosed,” Whistleblower Alternate Lifestyles Contributors Ben Dover and Phil McKrevis were surprised Clown-cil Gay Chris Squealback hasn’t already tried to update the City of Cincinnati’s options too.
- IN HAMILTON COUNTY: Bellwether Blogger Bill Sloat says The Blower was wrong about how Veterans Court projects in Hamilton County got started. Sloat claims he wrote a letter to then Commissioner David Pepper suggesting we start one here after Sloat talked to a judge in Pittsburgh. Then he drafted a letter for Bill Mallory, who sent it to David Pepper who then got the wheels in motion. One of the Ohio Supreme Court justices jumped on the bandwagon and got things moving. [READ MORE HERE] Sloat says, “It’s cool that the program is working and these people The Blower wrote about (Judges Melissa Powers and Ethna Cooper) want to take credit for starting it. Hats off to all of them them for enlisting and doing the right things for our Vets!”
- SNOW BLOWERS: Whistleblower Weather-guesser Delkus Apuozzo says, “Death doom and destruction were being predicted on Monday as the weather Nazi’s were scaring the kids and schools already.” Which school will be the first to call off classes this year and how many snow falls that are predicted won’t happen?
- IN ANDERSON: Anderson High School students will be presenting “Urinetown” on November 22-24. It’s a so-called “modern musical” where people have to “pay to pee.” Read all about it in the Forest Hills Urinal.
Also in Anderson, Failed DemocRAT Trustee Candidate John Peidowitz says, “The people taking my signs down before the election were really effective. Why can’t they be as effective taking down my signs not that the election has been over for more than a week?”
- AND RINO HUNTING SEASON officially opens Thursday night at the Anderson TEA Party Meeting. Some big name speakers will be on hand. Just wait till you hear their names.
- DUMBED DOWN DEMOCRATS: Obsessive Obama Supporters Tom and Rose say DemocRATS are launching a new contest. For a mere $3 donation, you’ll be automatically entered to win a trip for you and a guest to meet Obama. Do you think it’s the last time that offer will be made?
- HONORING THY COMMITMENTS: Whistleblower Senior National Political Affairs Analyst Britt Humus says former president Bill Clinton delivered some blunt criticism of the sitting president, saying Obama should live up to his promise to Americans that if they like their health plans, they can keep them. You don’t imagine that has anything to do with Hillary’s aspirations for the Oval Office in 2016, do you?
- SOMETHING ELSE OBAMA SUCKS AT: Whistleblower Senior Spoiled Sports Editor Andy FurBall says despite frequently playing golf while the country struggles economically, Obama is actually not very good at it, according to testimony from a top-ranked golf instructor.
- IN NORTHERN KENTUCKY: Bluegrass Bureau Chief Ken CamBoo says it was a who’s who at the Greyhound Grill yesterday for lunch. Who knows what is going on with “Beanball Jim” Bunning. Is it a coincidence that the Honorable Ray Lape was at the same table with the ever-knowing Danny Miles? We don’t think so. Miles is setting the stage to do something. Only time will tell.
Also in NoKY, Bluegrass State Auditor Adam Edelen plans to conduct a special examination of the Kenton County Airport Board, which wastes over-taxed payers’ money at The Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport.
- PERISHING PUBLISHERS: The Onion will stop its remaining print editions on December 12. [READ MORE HERE] Can The Fishwrap be far behind? At times, it has been even sillier than the Onion, which is humorous be design. Not to say The Blower has always been ahead of its time, but the last printed edition was published on November 12, 1991.
- FINALLY, AT TODAY’S MEETING OF THE CONSERVATIVE AGENDA Political Insiders were asking Charles Foster Kane about the deadline for nominations for The Blower’s 2012 Whistleblower Turkey of the Year Contest (sponsored by Dummy’s Restaurant). “Next Friday’s the deadline,” Kane explained.
“And like everything else in The Blower, nominees will be discriminated against on the basis of race, religion, color, sex, age, non-disqualifying physical or mental disability, national origin, sexual orientation, or any other basis covered by local law).
“And don’t forget, Northern Kentucky turkeys won’t be left out, because separate winners will be awarded for both Ohio and the Bluegrass.”
So this year’s Turkey of the Year Contest promises to be our best yet, but only with your help. Remember what Jesse “The Body” Ventura said: “If you don’t vote, you’ll be leaving the decision to an even bigger turkey than you are.”
