Grief, they have time for this pansey story, but a real hard hitting story, like, um, I don’t know, how about “Why are there so many law suits wanting Obama to prove he is eligible to be Potus?” is off the table.

Worthless Media bump.

Muy expensivo when you can get it. 150$/lb I think

Looks like we'll be footing the bill for the next four years.

Main stream press... don't be surprised you will not get any information from O's holier-than-thou-administration... he and his campaign used utes like 2 bit whores. Once again... don't be surprised.

Why is the President Elect of the Free World out getting lunch for his staff? That’s very weird.

[Kickass Conservative]

Just wait until the follow up story telling us what time tomorrow morning Obama had his BM.

They probably have a pool going in the Newsroom.

Corned Beef and Cabbage is more Irish-American than Irish. The Irish in America learned about the glories of corned beef from their Jewish neighbours because they were looking for a cheap substitute for Irish bacon.

What is Corned Beef?

I prefer Kimchi in my Reuben sandwiches.

I had heard that corned beef was something eaten by Irish immigrants, but that it was not something they had eaten in Ireland before emigrating to America. Whether they picked up the habit from Jewish immigrants, I don’t know—large-scale Irish immigration started earlier than large-scale Jewish immigration (although there had been some Jews in the colonies as early as the 17th century).

"I double dog dare you to say that the AP is no better than the National Enquirer!"

LOL!

“Yes, President-elect of Historical Merit Obama had delicious corned beef for lunch. After the weather and sports, we will bring you tonight’s next top story: does Obama fold or crumple his toilet paper before using it? If we have time, we will also bring you how he likes to flip his pillow at night to make it cooler on his cheek. Jose, what kind of weather are we in for tomorrow?”

[lowbridge]

Jose, what kind of weather are we in for tomorrow?”

Well Chet, the good lord has been pleased by the recent election results, and as a result has informed us that he is cancelling winter and will bless us with nothing but sunny skies and a nice comfortable 72 degree temperature from now untill April.

There will be no dog...the first of many broken promises.
