| The Irony Of Obama’s Slam Of Clarence Thomas | | 2008-08-18 23:04:06 | | Obama’s horrendous performance on Saturday is filled with interesting nuggets and statements that I’m sure we’ll be looking at for some time. This particular one caught my attention though. In the video clip above, Warren asks Obama which sitting Supreme Court justice he would not have nominated were it to have been his choice.

| Irony can be pretty ironic sometimes. | | 2007-08-29 19:29:00 | | Amy Winehouse's father-in-law calls on fans to stop buying Winehouse's records to pressure the couple to quit drugs.So you get famous by singing a song called "Rehab" in which the main chorus is "They tried to make me go to rehab, I said no, no, no..." only to have people suggest boycotting your records until you quit drugs? Oh, the life of a rock star. Anyway, as an alternative to supporting Amy's drug habits I suggest instead checking out The Detroit Cobras. Here's what LA Weekly has to say about them:"No offense to Amy Winehouse, but it was the Cobras‚ Rachel Nagy who first reinvented the 60s soul-pop diva as a boozy, punk-informed, smart-mouthed chanteuse in the late 90s."

| The Irony of Fuel Economy Legislation | | 2007-06-26 03:39:00 | | Good article by David WelchTo the American car buyer, I say prepare to downsize your vehicles or pay more for them. Late Thursday, the Senate approved a bill that would require auto makers to boost the fuel economy average of the fleet of vehicles they sell to 35 miles per gallon by 2020. Right now, they must meet an average of 21.6 mpg for trucks and 27.5 mpg for passenger cars. The bill still needs to be passed by the House of Representatives and signed by the President to become law. Moving to a one-fleet average generally means auto makers will either have to sell fewer suvs or sell enough small vehicles to offset the sales volume of their gas guzzlers. Lawmakers see this as politically expedient because voters will roil over a gasoline tax.Here’s the bit of irony. Congress and the President (regardless of which side of the aisle and who is in the Oval Office) have long seen gasoline taxes as political suicide. Consumers want their big cars and suvs and would like to drive them, | | By: Car, Car Purchase, Buy Car , Car Insurence all abo | | |

| Morning dose of Irony | | 2007-05-23 16:09:08 | |
The President has two constitutional powers to stop wreck-less Democrats from their insistence on committing Unconstitutional Acts, and one is the power of the Veto.. If this does not stop them from ignoring Constitutional Limits on the Legislature, then the President will have no choice but to Exercise his OTHER Constitutional Power, and that is to Adjourn Congress till 2008 and send the Democrat crybabies home..(Article II, Section 3).
President Bush Vetos Dem’s UNCONSTITUTIONAL spending bill
Wait… the President is preventing unconstitutional acts? That is almost like protecting the constitution! Wow, that’s rich.
The author of the post cited swallowed a White House press release whole, and, well, the White House says that the Dems are trying something illegal. Must be so, right?
Finally, this legislation is unconstitutional because it purports to direct the conduct of the operations of the war in a way that infringes upon the powers vested in the Presidency by th | | By: Hell's Handmaiden | | |

| Irony and the movies | | 2007-05-11 00:08:00 | | I find it rather ironic that George Lucas recently called Spider-Man 3 “silly”, implying that the movie is nothing more than shallow entertainment. "There just isn't much there. Once you take it all apart, there's not much story, is there?" That’s something like Bush chastising Blair for not withdrawing from Iraq; or the Chicago Bears starting Superbowl quarterback Rex Gross chiding secondary Brian Griese for failing to complete a pass. | | By: Despair and Coffee | | |
