'Dirty Jobs' Host Mike Rowe Zings Special Ed Schultz


"I Can Get You a Truck Before You Realize You're 'Canceled!"

"Viewers who watched Ed Schultz on Wednesday witnessed something rare on the liberal host's show: a guest who voted for Republican Mitt Romney in 2012. Dirty Jobs star Mike Rowe appeared and even got in a dig at Schultz's expense. After the MSNBC anchor touted his working class background and love for trucks, Rowe quipped, "I can make a call. I can have a truck in your driveway before you say, 'holy crap, I'm canceled!'

 A surprised Schultz blurted, "I'm just trying every time slot here at MSNBC." Rowe joked, "Something's bound to stick." Earlier in the segment, the Dirty Jobs host laughed as Schultz called for him to join the Democratic Party: "You know, he is the perfect independent that we have to convince that it's their Republicans fault!"

Moody’s busts Obama myth: “No direct connection between the debt limit and default”


Obama is the first President in history to oversee a downgrade of America’s credit rating, and if you remember, that downgrade came after Congress raised the debt ceiling the last time. This week Moody’s came out to dispel one of Obama’s top falsehoods about the debt limit.

from Washington Post:
In a memo being circulated on Capitol Hill Wednesday, Moody’s Investors Service offers “answers to frequently asked questions” about the government shutdown, now in its second week, and the federal debt limit. President Obama has said that, unless Congress acts to raise the $16.7 trillion limit by next Thursday, the nation will be at risk of default.
Not so, Moody’s says in the memo dated Oct. 7.
” We believe the government would continue to pay interest and principal on its debt even in the event that the debt limit is not raised, leaving its creditworthiness intact,” the memo says. “The debt limit restricts government expenditures to the amount of its incoming revenues; it does not prohibit the government from servicing its debt. There is no direct connection between the debt limit (actually the exhaustion of the Treasury’s extraordinary measures to raise funds) and a default.
The memo offers a starkly different view of the consequences of congressional inaction on the debt limit than is held by the White House, many policymakers and other financial analysts. During a press conference at the White House Tuesday, Obama said missing the Oct. 17 deadline would invite “economic chaos.”
Read the Rest

Without a debt limit increase, the Federal government would still have enough money to service our current debt and fulfill obligations to Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security.  The real risk of a credit downgrade or a default is caused by our long term debt (which currently sits around $17 Trillion), not from Obama’s legal ability to accrue more of it.

Exclusive Hidden Camera Footage Of Obama AP Interview

By MFNS Investigative Correspondent The Earl of Taint

(Please note we are posting stills from the video portion of the evidence only. The audio was basically inaudible, due to the overwhelming background noise of some type of large carnivore savagely devouring its prey on the White House grounds. MFNS contracted at great expense with one of America’s leading lip-readers to transcribe the dialog into those balloon thingees, so our readers could follow the conversation.)






More Proof Harry Reid is a Space Alien

Reid complains to Politico about the Media  
Democrat Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid is as crazy as a loon.  He’s a pro-abortion, pro-gay marriage, Morman from Las Vegas who thinks the media has a conservative bias. Geeze!
from Politico:
"And he argued that no objective analysis could conclude that Democrats are at fault for the shutdown given that he agreed to a lower spending level to win the support of Republicans, who later decided to tie the government funding battle to their long-standing demands to overhaul the health care law.
“You and other journalists have a real shortcoming in that you are trying so hard to be fair that you are unfair,” Reid said. “Democrats have had almost nothing to do with the problems here. It’s all Republicans......” 
So, Harry Reid thinks that the media isn’t doing their job because they’re not biased enough against Republicans? Also saying “it’s all Republicans” isn’t really a great way to find common ground across the aisle. The truth is that Harry Reid is a lying, vindictive, nasty little old man who doesn’t own a suit that fits him.

If You Think The Beltway Media Is Bad Now, Just Wait Until This Crowd Gets In…

CNN’s Frank Sesno apparently has one of those Bob Mann-style academic gigs these days, in which an old leftist media type gets a cushy gig at a college teaching new leftists how to spin biased narratives to the public. In Sesno’s case his cush gig is at George Washington University. And yesterday, Sesno displayed the product of his current work by trotting out a gaggle of J-school clowns from GWU to ask them (1) where they get their news (hilariously enough, almost none said CNN) and (2) what they think the media’s role should be. The results?


Let’s pray this isn’t representative of the majority of what comes out of America’s journalism schools, though we all know most of them turn out much worse product than Sesno does.  The fruitcake in the green shirt is the classic example of the “everybody gets a trophy in my soccer league” entitled milennial leftist – Ted Cruz disagrees with Me, Therefore I will Deny Access To The Media for Ted Cruz. Because those who disagree with Me are not fit to breathe My Air. And that fool will likely have a position of authority in a newsroom at some point.

DMF Volunteers Services to Update White House Social Sites

Due to the government shutdown, the White House social sites are not being updated. The geniuses at the White House either aren't smart enough to figure out how to post, or they don't realize they are free and cost the gov't nothing to run.  Not to worry.

DMF has taken on the task of updating our favorite site for them, the White House Tumblr.  We're sending it on to the White House hoping they'll appreciate the time and expense spent doing it and let us post it up for them, and maybe drop the IRS audit this year. Here's the rough draft of our post......




The Official White House Tumblr

Things going around the White House that we just had to share with you.


This Weeks Obama Supporter Spotlight

 Meet Jerome Mohammad Katz , 26 of Chicago. Jerome is an avid supporter of the the president and his policies and was a valued member of the reelection team, working as a poll monitor in 2012.  Jerome is  a self-employed pharmaceutical rep and spends his spare time community organizing and volunteering with his neighborhood watch patrol. As soon as the gov't shutdown is over and Republicans fund the gov't agencies, Jerome plans to attend Stanford University and become an astronaut. Thank You and Good Luck, Jerome. 


Meet Ricardo Blankenship, 31 of Los Memos, Cal.  A Victim of the Bush recession, Ricardo is an unemployed school crossing guard  and came to our attention during a essay contest for third graders on the subject of ObamaCare. Ricardo will be happy to know he is just one of millions of Americans who get free health care covered under pre-existing conditions.  

Thank You Larwyn’s Linx at Doug Ross@Journal for the Linkage!

Woke up this morning to the sounds of whining coming from the White House....

“President Obama has to cancel his trip to Asia because of the government shutdown.” And of course those mean ol’ Republicans are to blame. I suppose this rates right up there with FLOTUS not being able to ‘tweet’ as much. Could it be the impeccably technologically savvy Obama administration has never heard of Skype? Sorry Mr. President you have to stay here with us sappy Americans and not trek off to Bali or Indonesia. Quite sure the leaders of those countries would be happy to tele-conference with you. How about this, just repeal the medical device tax and ensure Obamacare is a law that applies to all Americans — no waivers, exemptions, and delays for some — and we promise you can go out and play, little fella." - Allen West

Swedes Cash In on Government Shutdown

MFNS - In a brilliant marketing campaign based on the current U.S.Government shutdown and refusal of Barack Obama and his lapdogs in congress to negotiate with republicans, Swedish furniture giant IKEA yesterday announced its newest fall line of assemble-it-yourself furniture: the Obama "2013 Empty Chair Series".

Greatly satisfied by the wildly successful 2008 "Embrace the Change" campaign featuring cheap Oval-Office style home furniture, the iconic Scandinavian furniture retailer announced that its "Obama Empty Chairs" would further increase revenue by using Clint Eastwood’s metaphor at the 2012 Republican National Convention about the empty-suited “not present” Obama.


At a recession-proof price of only $19.99, Ikea shoppers have their choice of 3 basic Obama "Tom Stools" ("tom stool" translates to "empty chair" in Swedish). Stained in red, white and blue, the three stools have already garnered thousands of online orders from U.S. taxpayers and from zipcodes as far away as Gaza City, Ramallah, Cairo and Benghazi.

In interviews with several Ikea shoppers at a suburban mall outside of Washington, DC and in College Park, Maryland, MFNS learned that most shoppers were opting to purchase the upgraded version of the Obama Empty Chair – the “Ihalig Stool” – which is not due to be released until November 7 and costs $10 more. The Ihalig Stool (which translates to "Hollow, Cavernous or Shallow Chair") is intended to remain permanently unassembled and left in its box; there are no screws or any other accompanying hardware which might enable the buyer to actually assemble the upgraded empty chair. 

Antique furniture expert, Dora Lamore of Langston Virginia, told us the new line of chairs are destined to become an instant collector's piece as soon as Obama gets impeached.
