Forget those other scandals!

Naked beauty queens? Nuclear Pakistan? Bank of America $35 billion short? Forget all that silly crap.
DIJONGATE!
Barack Obama ordered a burger with dijon mustard! Just what we can expect from one of those snooty un-American law professor types, y'know.
  • Fact: Dijon mustard comes from France.
  • Fact: From 1843-45, Karl Marx lived in France.
  • Fact: From 1940-44, Adolf Hitler ruled France.
  • Fact: From 1978-79, the Ayatollah Khomeini lived in France.
Draw your own conclusions.

  1. EVERYONE SHOULD GO OUT AND ORDER "THE STIMULUS BURGER" TODAY. ORDER WITH AMERICAN MUSTARD AND LEAVE A TIP OF 20% OF MORE. OBAMA WILL NOT STOP US! OBAMA WILL NOT STOP CAPITALISM! NO ONE WILL TAKE AWAY OUR GUN OR OUR RELIGION! I WILL FIGHT TO MY DEATH JUST AS MY 13 DESCENDANTS OF THE REVOLUTIONARY WAR DID BEFORE ME! A AM AN AMERICAN. I BELIEVE IN GOD, COUNTRY, LIFE, LIBERTY AND THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS! I BELIEVE IN THE FREE ENTERPRISE SYSTEM! THIS WILL BE THE NEXT "TEA PARTY" MOVEMENTS!

  2. Actually, the Bank of America story is interesting. Here is a bank that wanted to give back the TARP money. And guess what? Treasury finds they are $35 billion short! Amazing!

    Does anyone know exactly how the stress test works? Or is it like the super-secret NASA hockey stick algorythm? Or the super-super-secret Air Force 1 pictures?

    Nice bank you have there, Bank of America. It would be shame if anything happened to it.

  3. Oh, look, here's the answer to the stress test question!

    "Big banks — those with more than $100 billion in assets — will have to carry out supervised analyses by the end of April of how much their capital would be depleted under the Treasury Department assumptions. If federal banking regulators conclude that a bank would not have enough capital under those circumstances, the bank would have to raise the extra money within six months or get it from the government in exchange for ceding a potentially big ownership stake."

    Again I ask: What is the formula for the stress test?
    If said bank still has TARP obligations, then said bank has enough capital. Obamanomics.

    Undeniable proof (if you needed it) that Obama is a limousine liberal:

  8. I have dijon mustard in my fridge. Am I really a conservative, or am I a...

    (sinister music blares as gopher turns and glares!)

    ...double agent???Or is it that dijon mustard is pretty darn good on some things? Though I must say I prefer good old plain bright yellow stuff on my burgers. Never mind that I was raised in a household where we only used Goulden's Spicy Brown Mustard. I blame George Bush.

  9. Fact: Dijon mustard comes from France.Right, and it's quite good (the original old one)

    Fact: From 1843-45, Karl Marx lived in France. so what ? born in may 1818 in Trèves, death in 14 march 1883 in London, so that makes him lived in Germany from 1818-43, in Belgium from 1845_49 where he published the 3manifest",in London from 1849-83

    Fact: From 1940-44, Adolf Hitler ruled France.from 1944-67 the Americans occupied France

    Fact: From 1978-79, the Ayatollah Khomeini lived in France.

    from october 1978 untill 1rst february 1979 in France

    “Condamné à mort il est gracié par le Shah d’Iran, qui conscient de son influence, le fait libérer rapidement en 1964. Il est alors forcé à l’exil, d’abord en Turquie, puis à Nadjaf et Kerbala en Irak pendant 14 ans, où son discours se radicalise progressivement. Son activisme pro-chiite indispose le pouvoir irakien et en 1978 il part vers la France avec un visa de touriste et s’installe à Neauphle-le-Château sans demander l’asile politique. Selon Alexandre de Marenches (chef du Service de documentation extérieure et de contre-espionnage, ancien nom de la DGSE), la France aurait suggéré au chah qu’ils pourraient « organiser un accident mortel pour Khomeini » ; le chah refuse l’offre d’assassinat, arguant du fait que ceci en ferait un martyr"

    So methinks, mister is a press bite, that makes ado for attracting the flies on his narcissic expressions
