- Many communities have decriminalized marijuana-cigarette smoking, but one very progressive township has taken this to the next level. Niskayuna, New York, has legalized ice cream trucks so children don’t have to drive to the ice cream store after they get high on marijuana. Now they can just lie in the street, stoned, and wait for the ice cream to come to them. [Hit & Run]
- The anxiously anticipated release of Erick Erickson’s autobiography, Jesus, et Cetera, is just two short months away. Pre-order Jesus, et Cetera on Amazon maybe? [RedState]
- Diaperman David Vitter has a very poor opinion of the FDA, because in his alternate whoremonger universe FDA is a secret acronym for Federal Death (Panel) Administration. Sigh. [Think Progress]
- Yes, The View forced Barack Obama to confess he doesn’t know what “Snooki” is, and yes, this means he probably just read “Snooki” from a teleprompter during the White House Correspondents’ Dinner, because he is braindead and regurgitates important words such as “Snooki” without even knowing what they are. You figured it out Jonah Goldberg, you are Today’s Winner. [The Corner]
- Poll: Hillary Clinton could be The President if she murdered Barack Obama and then wore his skin as a body suit, in 2012. [Washington Whispers]

Today, we are all teleprompter-reading, Snooki naysayers.
Oh, I thought the ice cream trucks were going to drive around town selling weed. That would be the only thing that could make up for the infernal things playing that damned Casio version of “Pop Goes the Weasel” that you can hear from ten blocks away.

Sweet, don’t forget to tag Ewick son of Ewick’s book.
Okay. I feel stupid. Who/What is a snooki?
Damn you, Waggaman, for making me check to make sure that Erickson didn’t actually name his new book after my favorite Wilco song. I should’ve known. Everyone knows he’s an Uncle Tupelo man, anyway.
[re=628623]BlinkyThe3EyedFish[/re]: You’ll never know.
OK, “Einstein,” who is snookie? She’s the quintessential New Jersey chick, except she’s from Chile and lives in New York. That clear things up for you? (Why do I read those lame NY Times “cute” pieces?)
Einstein’
Snooki is a very orange, short, poof-haired lady person on some terrible “reality” shore called The Jersey Shore, which also involves some douchebag with too much hair gel who calls himself “the Situation”.
Apparently Snooki grew up across the Hudson from me, in downstate NY, not remotely near the Jersey Shore.
Anyway, I’m kind of ashamed that I know this fucking shit.
Uh, that should be “reality” show.
Gov. Christie recently made some sort of stink about how the show makes NJ look bad.
When I lived near Boulder Colorado, the city council there considered (maybe enacted) a ban on ice cream trucks playing music. They didn’t cite highfalutin “safety of the children” as the reason. They said parents complained that upon hearing the music children wanted some ice cream, but those parents just didn’t like saying “no”. So with the government’s help, children in Boulder were no longer tempted and maintained a healthy weight. And the parents were able to stop taking their anti-anxiety pills. A happy ending for everyone!
Oh Barry, if you knew who “Snooki” was, you’d hate her too.
Damn you NYT, for showing her stupid, orange, face online this weekend!
(There, I feel better now.)
[re=628641]DemmeFatale[/re]: I dont know who she is either. that makes me as smart as Einstein
[re=628636]just pixels[/re]: As yes, the great Boulder Ice Cream truck wars. But to be fair, I remember the fine print being that the trucks would roll up in front of your house, park, and play the Weasel song for-fucking-ever. I think that was more the crux of the issue than the fatties.
10 minutes of jingle = Norman Rockwell painting
2 hours of jingle = grounds for murder
[re=628623]BlinkyThe3EyedFish[/re]: Your voice is smoking; last cigarettes are all you can get.
[re=628627]thehelveticascenario[/re]: Every generation thinks it’s the end of the world.
[re=628591]SayItWithWookies[/re]: That’s mainly in Connecticut and New Mexico.
There is a difference, of course, between 61 percent of people saying Clinton could beat Obama in a primary, and 61 percent actually voting for her over him.
Aww fuck it. No one’s listening.
[re=628636]just pixels[/re]: “A happy ending for everyone!”
I didn’t know they had legalized massage parlor trucks also. Also.
[re=628630]Witch Hazel[/re]: Haha RE: Christie. Jersey doesn’t need Jersey Shore to look bad, yo.
[re=628629]Witch Hazel[/re]: you should not be ashamed . you should be proud . you will find a way .
Riley, I cannot believe you did not reference your own brilliant live-blogging of The View this afternoon.
[re=628650]HedonismBot[/re]: There is also a difference between 61 percent saying she could beat him, and 61 percent saying they would vote for her.
But the media has already settled on their “Dems/Obama going down in flames in 2010/2012″ meme, so such distinctions are lost on them.
[re=628662]HedonismBot[/re]: This is true, even on NPR every reference to the next elections includes a remark like “The Democrats will be lucky to hang on to Vice Dog Catcher’s Assistant in 2010″
It seems pretty obvious that David Vitter should be wearing the diaper on his head, as there is a lot shit in there.
There is a guy going around calling himself “The Situation”? Please you dumb asshole let your whole name which is SNAFU out to the public, so we can really identify you.
Jesus et Cetera? I thought it was supposed to be the other way around? I know that Peter’s best days (w/Chicago) are over, but what’s he done that would piss off the baby jeebus so much?
[re=628671]Beowoof[/re]: Yeah, but all his friends call him The.
[re=628671]Beowoof[/re]: Oh, his name is out there – just google The Situation – in fact, just google the sit… and it will be the first suggestion.
I think his first name is Michael or something. Again – I am ashamed to know this shit – I feel like the witness to a brutal crime.
I’ve never seen the show, but another awful thing about it is that these orange busty/muscular irritating people are all Italian-American. I am Italian-American and I while I detest organized crime in ALL forms (to the point that I believe in the death penalty only for white collar crooks ala Enron and all the fuckers responsible for the more recent unpleasantness, etc. and of course child rapers), I’d rather be painted a Mafioso than one of these loud-mouthed “guidos and guidoettes” or whatever the fuck they are calling themselves.
Also, I love the south Jersey shore.
Remember, Jersey has her problems, but she’s also got some great tomatoes.
Hurrah, Niskayuna!
In Mobile, Alabama back in the day, the ice cream trucks DID sell marijuana, so we just had to lie in the street.
From Erik:
Heck, Republicans gave us Earl Warren
Earl Warren gave us Brown vs Topeka BOE.
Earl Warren gave us Mapp vs Ohio.
Earl Warren gave us Loving vs Virginia.
Earl Warren gave us one man-one vote, and o poll taxes or reading exam.
Why is that bad Erik?
Guys, gotta tell you – I clicked through to the ice cream truck story and read the comments there…
Those guys are GOOD.
Problem is Hil’ couldn’t squeeze her pear-shaped cellulite-y ass into Hopey’s skin even if lathered with 3 gallons of Astroglide and dropped from the Truman Balcony…
[re=628629]Witch Hazel[/re]: Ah. Thanks for the clarification. I was thinking it was Mitch McConnell’s secret love name for John Boehner and that’s why he was exempt from the tanning bed tax. But I guess Boner’s orange comes from a bottle.
I was wondering how long it would take for “Obama doesn’t know who some overtanned, famous-for-nothing halfwit nonentity on reality teleivision is” to morph into “Obama is out of touch with ‘real’ America.” It looks like about four hours. This is going to be Fox’s meme this weekend.
Clicking through the piece on Hillary running in the primary you can find USNews’ slide-show on the “Ten keys to an Obama Comeback”

#10: Name Oprah as a Domestic Envoy
Jesus, Etc is an great song by Wilco. However, Tom Clancy’s Red Storm Rising is probably a more accurate picture of our future if the Sons of Erick ever take control.
