This week’s uncaptioned picture for you to play with:

PRODUCTION NOTES:
#1: When creating lolbama! pictures, please caption with either black or white text, as colors like red and yellow tend to blur badly when I compress the images.

#2: Standard image size for these posts is 350px wide by whatever high. If you can have your images 350px wide before you caption them, I won’t end up shrinking your captions into illegibility when I re-size the images.

MAKE YOUR OWN: The free lolbuilder from I Can Has Cheezburger.

STYLE NOTE: Short captions are usually better. Your goal is 10 words or less, with humor value tending to increase exponentially as the number of words approaches 1.

Send your submissions to lolterizt@gmail.com and – if they aren’t obscene (IMAO is a PG-13 site) and don’t suck too terribly bad – I’ll post them for you. Remember to include your name (and blog URL, if applicable) so I know who to thank.

Best Line Since “I Aim to Misbehave”

Just to Make Sure You Didn’t Miss It…

Harvey is reposting our podcasts (can you believe that was done more than five years ago?). Definitely check it out if you’ve never heard it before… and even if you have because it’s been like five years and I don’t even remember any of it. They were pretty funny… just also a lot of work.

Now I have the Chairman Mao song stuck in my head…

Democrats Are Racist And Sexist

Following up on my post yesterday asking which of the two political parties is really racist, I now ask which of the two parties do you think is most sexist? A Tennessee Democrat Rep. Janis Baird Sontany remarked about Republican woman, “You have to lift their skirts to find out if they are women. You sure can’t find out by how they vote.” Similarly, a number of people have been asking if all the Republican women who won the primary last week is a blow to feminism because they don’t have the “right views.”

See, in the minds of Democrats, only white males are allowed to have any viewpoint they want without having their authenticity questioned. Women have to have certain views or they’re not real women. Similarly, if you’re black you have to have certain viewpoints on tax issues or your not a real black person and if you’re Hispanic a nice white liberal will tell you what viewpoint you should have if you want to be an authentic Hispanic. As for Asians… well, just look at the bile Michelle Malkin gets.

Republicans, on the other hand, are enlightened and think women and minorities can have whatever views they want and we won’t attack the authenticity of your race or gender. We might call you a hippie and punch you, but that’s not a race issue — that’s a hippie issue. Republicans aren’t racist or sexist, while the Democrats only exist because of racism (I wrote about that some time ago for Pajamas Media). The only way their party can exist is keeping people in racial groups and not independently examining the issues. That’s why they’re always trying to awkwardly inject race into everything (Against Obamacare? Racist! Don’t like soccer? Also racist!). With all the racism they spread, they’re like the KKK, except more effective and with more taxes.

Obama Tries to Use His Bumbling to His Advantage

So Obama sent out a fundraising e-mail about the oil spill. So how does that work?

“I have no idea what I’m doing, but maybe I’ll figure it out if you send me money. Why, with your contribution of $50, you can help lead me down the path to figuring out whose ass to kick.”

Anyway, the letter outlines a bunch of new policy ideas Obama wants to use the oil spill as impetus to as he doesn’t want to let a crisis go to waste, but does that really work when people see you as part of the reason of the crisis? Like he goes on about how we need clean energy because of how awful oil is, but of course oil looks awful when you have a president who just twiddles his thumbs while it’s gushing out into all the ocean. Basically, the oil spill has demonstrated Obama doesn’t know how to do anything useful or competent, so why is his bumbling of this big disaster going to convince us to follow anymore of his ideas? The only proposal he could have that I would see catching on with the public would be for him to say he’ll now sit quietly in the corner while other people handling the important things.

How to Help a Failing President

In my latest Pajamas Media Column, I talk about how Obama failing as president is really our fault and explain how we can do something about it.

Random Thoughts

If someone accused me of supporting the Obama agenda, I’d get violent too.

In this age of video and YouTube, it’s probably good advice to politicians to not violently assault people.

Maybe Etheridge has a good excuse like he had some bad acid or something. Or he thought the kid was Justin Bieber.

The way Etheridge grabbed that kids hand at the beginning, I thought he was going to follow it up with, “Kneel before Zod!”

“So you want fries with that?” “Who are you?! WHO ARE YOU?!!!”

A reporter tried to ask Etheridge about the incident, but Etheridge’s only comment was, “Who are you?!!”

So is Etheridge a Representative or a really aggressive census worker? “Who are you?! What’s your name?!!”

So did they introduce the vuvuzela to keep Americans from falling asleep while watching the games?

The oil spill as Obama’s 9/11? It would be more comparable if it took Bush a month to read “My Pet Goat.”

Would what Etheridge did be considered a “harsh interrogation technique”?

Who will protect the Tea Parties from violent, angry politicians?

Could someone use an autotune to make Etheridge sing the chorus to the Who song “Who Are You”?

Palin’s quest to make “feminist” a non-derisive terms seems to be angering a lot of feminists.

I like Douthat. He’s the one guy at the NYTimes trying to sound smart who I think actually succeeds.

Watching Babylon 5 and one guy said, “You’ll go down in history like Fleming or Salk.” I knew they heard about me in the future!

Is it a guarantee when Beggin’ Strips says that “Dogs Don’t Know It’s Not Bacon!”? If my dog discovers the ruse and attacks me, can I sue? It could be like when I found out my wife was giving me turkey bacon all over again.
