Here are some other highlights and headlines that I noticed over at Ransom Notes Radio:
Ruth Bader Ginsburg appeared to fall asleep during the President’s speech. Everyone else in the room appeared to be jealous.
Barack Obama quoted Barack Obama in his State of the Union address… What do you want to bet that he refers to himself in the third person when he’s talking to his staff?
Obama has used the term “Middle Class Economics” to describe his fiscal policies. Sure, middle class incomes might have just hit a 50 year low; but don't let those little "facts" get in the way of a good Orwellian sales pitch.
Oh, and Obama is clearly taking global terrorism very seriously… So seriously, in fact, he wouldn’t even mention Al Qaeda, or Yemen, in his speech. I guess he wanted to focus on the rousing success of his campaign against common sense.
Slate.com is insisting that we “forget about the oil and gas industry”, and work instead on curbing cattle as a source of methane… Look, I’m doing what I can; but there are limits on how much red meat I can eat each day.
The action star Liam Neeson called America’s gun ownership a “f@#&ing disgrace”. And now a gun manufacturer has decided to boycott anything, and everything, to do with the British actor. The manufacturer even announced that it would stop providing prop guns to movie studios that work with Neeson. It’ll be cute watching him do another “Taken” movie while pointing his finger at bad guys and making a “pow” sound.
