Hardly a Snub

James Harrison is not going to the White House when Obama hosts the Pittsburgh Steelers for their Super Bowl Championship. The world is calling is a "snub" of the Obama-machine. If the great and powerful Obama invites you to a gathering, how dare you not attend? He better not have any Ron Paul bumper stickers lying around, or else he might end up in an orange jump suit where Obama's moving the Gitmo detainee's.

There are several issues that need to be resolved here instead of calling it a snub. Let's touch on each briefly:

1) Notice that he DID NOT attend the Bush invite either. Why a big deal with Obama?
2) How much taxpayer money is being spent on this during the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression (says the Obama, not me)? Not only that, when will Obama say that he's too busy for a PR event (other than ACTUALLY SNUBBING dead troops at Normandy)?
3) Does the world think Harrison, as a black man, owes Obama something by attending? If Ben Roethlisburger did not show, how quick would the Obama PR machine call him a racist?
4) Since Harrison just signed another huge deal, he probably realizes he's not going to make any more money once Obama taxes his raise. Perhaps this is him showing his displeasure at the fact that he worked his ass off for a pay raise and Obama took it from him.

Most importantly, this is a NON STORY because Obama, constitutionally, is a figurehead, a nobody. The President was given the least power in the Constitution and, thus, not wanting to attend the White House should not matter. Great leaders manage subordinates, they don't steal their freedom to make their own choices and control them. Unfortunately, the world has forgotten this fact, and brought us Bush then Obama, the same machine setting out to destroy the very fabric that this nation was founded on: freedom.

Maybe Harrison recognizes all of these things. Maybe he's just scared of airplaines. I like to think he's on my side though.....

Presidential Name Popularity

The press really picked up quite a nugget with this one. The name "Barack" has become more popular with newborns with our new president.
He does have an advantage here, I highly doubt that parents wanted to punish their children with the names George, Bill, Ronald, James, Dwight, Richard, or John to make a political statement......

Why my 26th May will be the Worst

I just flipped my Chiefs calendar in my cube to May. I have to stare at Damien McIntosh’s fat ass for a month.

May’s gonna suck…..
