I Would Have Traded Jay Carney for Bowe Bergdahl

There's been too much discussion about the Bergdahl trade. How about a knowledgeable government varmint for a probable deserter? Yes, I'm talking about Jay Carney, the lying little weasel who's been spinning the truth for Barry Soetero since day one.

Keeping with tradition, we could have gotten back a man who knowingly abandoned his post for Carney, who knows every little evil hidden secret that is buried in the bowels of the White House.

I also considered throwing in Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid in the deal, but Nancy rejected the deal when she learned that "rape, loot and pillage" wasn't part of the agreement. Harry Reid was also rejected because the Taliban did not have a suitable nursing home.

Unfortunately, Obama choose to trade the political equivalent of the Miami Heat starting five for the team mascot. Alas, he refused to give up the blindly obedient and resident idiot, Nancy Pelosi, whose motto is "a standing ovation" every time something comes out of Obama's orifices, albeit burps or farts. He also refused to give up Reid, who has been in a coma for years, but still votes democrat.

Yep, I think a Carney for Bergdahl trade would have been great. What's the worst that could have happened? The Taliban tortured him until he told the truth?



Then again, Carney could go to work for Fox News and haunt Obama forever.

The News As I See It: The air conditioning stopped working during game one of the NBA Finals between the Miami Heat and the San Antonio Spurs, which made it feel like 90 degrees inside. Or as football players, baseball players, tennis players, soccer players, and runners put it, "Must be rough." LeBron James sat on the bench for the final four minutes of the game with leg cramps and what’s crazy was his teammates still kept passing him the ball.

The original trade exchanging POW Bowe Bergdahl for five Taliban prisoners included Joe Biden, but the Taliban said no.

Printable Things I Never Told You: 1) The fact that peanut butter companies feel it necessary to put on the jar that the product "Contains Peanuts" makes me extremely nervous for the human race. 2) Upon graduation from the University of Phoenix, do they just send you a screen shot of your degree? 3) I thought I saw an eye doctor on an Alaskan island, but it turned out to be an optical Aleutian. 4) I wonder if the guy who named the mustache was aware that "hair lip" was available? 5) My friend's kid is almost old enough for social media so he'll need to have "the talk" soon.

The AREA 51 Retirement Home Bar And Grill: A man and his ever-nagging wife went on vacation in Jerusalem. While they were there, the wife passed away. The undertaker told the husband, "You can have her buried here in the Holy Land for $150 or we can have her shipped back home for $5,000."

The husband thought about it and told the undertaker he would have her shipped back home. The undertaker asked him, "Why would you spend $5,000 to have her shipped home when you could have a beautiful burial here and it would only cost $150?"

The husband replied, "Long ago, a man died here, was buried here and three days later, he rose from the dead. I just can’t take that chance!"

A police dog responds to an ad for work with the FBI. The personnel director says, "You’ll have to meet some strict requirements. First, you must type at least 60 words per minute." The dog sits down at the typewriter and types out 80 words per minute.

The director says, "You must also pass a physical and complete the obstacle course." This perfect canine specimen finishes the course in record time.

The director continues, "There’s one last requirement. You must be bilingual." With confidence, the dog looks up at him and says, "Meow!"

The Hits Just Keep On Coming: Little Johnny comes down for breakfast and since they live on a farm, his mother asks him if he has done his chores. Little Johnny replies, "Not yet." His mother tells him he can't have any breakfast until he does his chores.

Pissed off, he goes to feed the chickens and he kicks a chicken. He goes off to feed the cows and he kicks a cow. Then he goes to feed the pigs and he kicks a pig. He goes back in for breakfast and his mother gives him a bowl of dry cereal.

Little Johnny asks, "How come I don't get any eggs and bacon? Why don't I have any milk on my cereal?" His mother says "I saw you kick the chicken so you don't get any eggs for a week. I saw you kick the pig so you don't get any bacon for a week either. I also saw you kick the cow, so for a week you aren't getting any milk."

Just then his father comes down for breakfast and kicks the cat as he is walking into the kitchen. Little Johnny looks up at his mother and with a smile says, "Are you going to tell him or should I?"

An elderly Italian man who lived on the outskirts of Rimini, Italy, went to the local church for confession. When the priest slid open the panel in the confessional, the man said: "Father, during World War II, a beautiful Jewish woman from our neighborhood, knocked urgently on my door and asked me to hide her from the Nazis. So I hid her in my attic."

The priest replied: "That was a wonderful thing you did, and you have no need to confess that." The elderly man said, "There is more to tell, Father. She started to repay me with sexual favors. This happened several times a week, and sometimes twice on Sundays."

The priest said, "That was a long time ago and by doing what you did, you placed the two of you in great danger, but two people under those circumstances can easily succumb to the weakness of the flesh. However, if you are truly sorry for your actions, you are indeed forgiven."

The old man said, "Thank you, Father. That's a great load off my mind. I do have one more question." The priest asked, " And what is that?" The old man said, "Should I tell her the war is over?"

That's it for today, my little sweet peas. Remember, don't rely on anyone to cure all diseases when we as a society can't figure out how to merge into traffic correctly?
