The first couple plans to visit Senegal, South Africa and Tanzania from June 26 to July 3,the National Security Counsel said on Twitter. The White House hasn’t yet released an official announcement of the trip.

“How dare he leave the White House?!”

Oh man. I’m not sure whether to stock up on popcorn or bourbon. I’m thinking both.

Hol-lee shit. We’re approaching the Wingnut Racist Singularity.

It’s like a million white-sheeted bigots all cried out at once.

I really am looking forward to all of the spin our moderate Republican friends will employ to deny that the GOP has a racism problem.

Postulate: we will see at least one member of the extended media (looking at you, Dim Jim) propose that Obama is actually secretly fleeing the country for his homeland, as #BengUmbrelIRSDOJgate is about to take him down.

Bourbon-flavored popcorn works.

I might actually start smoking weed. Anything to dull the pain…

Troll hard, Mr. President. Troll hard.

It’s almost like Obama thinks goading the RWNJs into being extra-racist-y just prior to the midterms might spur turnout from his base or something…

Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake.

I thought Ben Shapiro was only interested in the sex lives of people he doesn’t know (see Fluke, Sandra; Collins, Jason).

And so it begins

That’s a bad location for a tornado. Newcastle is heavily developed suburbia. It’d be nice if a few of these twisters hit empty range land.

One of my favorite pics, long since removed by Photobucket admin, was of Bush on Safari…here’s a small version, but without the captions, which used to be:

Bush: What about him?
Laura: No, that’s not Colin Powell either.

Waiting for someone to claim that Obama shouldn’t go to Africa because it will give the RWNJs something to make their complaints legit.

Virginia’s Atty General Nominee

The bill, introduced in 2009, stated that if a miscarriage occured without medical attendance, the woman would be required to report the “fetal death, location of the remains, and the identity of the mother” to the local or state police department. If she failed to do this within 24 hours, the bill would find the woman guilty of a Class 1 misdemeanor. As Think Progress notes, a Class 1 misdemeanor carries a maximum sentence of “confinement in jail for not more than twelve months and a fine of not more than $2,500” in Virginia.

Today’s reminder that you can be both logically consistent and deeply evil.

And just how in the hell would this be enforced? Small Government! Jobs! Freedom!

How did the Oklahoma delegation vote on Sandy aid? I’m sure Peter King (and the New Jersey delegation) will have some words for them.

Me too, the Republican party is going to fold like bad flan.
