Alright, alright maybe he didn’t actually come out and say that, but that’s what he meant.

This is what he really said about condom usage “Aids, is a tragedy that cannot be overcome by money alone, and that cannot be overcome through the distribution of condoms, which even aggravates the problems.” Although the quote seems to be open for debate as to whether it was an accurate translation of the Pope’s speech. Read Damian “the devil himself” Thompson of  telegraph.co.uk has to say. ( DT really looks like the devil).

Also there’s Jack’s Attack over at CNN Politics.

Then you have The new york times, the US news, and 1 million others.

I don’t know maybe it’s just me, but anybody that is sworn to a life of celibacy shouldn’t be commenting on any subject that has to do with sex. I could be wrong, NOT.

An Atlanta cop working in city hall arrested two CBS 46 news people, because, well because his cheese slid off his cracker. You can’t explain it any other way. Watch the video, after placing the cuffs on the reporters this guy kinda had a deer in the headlights look.

Clearly not the best example of Atlanta’s Finest.

Also what’s funny in the bottom of the article is how the news organization takes a moment to mention,” After this, we will still ask the tough questions”. OK if asking about water bills is tough questions, I guess you guys are the best.

775 Billion Dollar Public Works projects.

I read about this last week sometime and what stuck out in my mind the most, was how they wanted to keep that monetary figure under the passage of death amount of 1 Trillion Dollars.

And why is that important; because the American taxpayers that haven’t lost their homes yet, would be freaking out. After all, who will be footing the bill for this. He’s already telling us what we want to hear, he wants to cut taxes and create jobs. That’s nice, so where’s this 775 billion coming from ? The Military’s budget, I don’t think that’s going to happen they love their trillions and will fight to the death before they part with one “red” cent. For you accountants out there you will notice it’s not, one “black” cent.

But that’s not what I’m here to talk about, what I want to talk about is the president-elect Obama’s “Yogism’s”. Not Bushisms mind you, although they were kind of enjoyable.

And to be more specific, Yogi’s unique mathematical logic. Yogi said, “Baseball is ninety percent mental and the other half is physical.” For those of you counting, that’s 140%.

The Obama camp when describing how many and what type’s of jobs will be created, said ; “More than 40% of the new jobs should go to women and 90% of them should be in the private sector.” The math here is 130%, OK not as bad as Yogi but you get my drift. Is this going to be the first of many “Obamaisms”?
