When California's not the worst, New York is: Department of Conservation seizes man's rescue animals, Peanut the Squirrel and Fred the Raccoon, and euthanizes them

 Because some asshole complained.

People have been complaining for what seems like forever about all the diseased illegals flooding the country, but the Feds and the state of New York don't check them, now do they?

Orphaned squirrel who became social media star was euthanized after being seized from home

 

Because the squirrel wanted to die

 

Gomer Pyle, USMC, expert on the Armalite series of rifles

You know Armalite, the famous inventors of the AR-7, the .22 Long Rifle semi-automatic survival weapon designed for downed pilots to fend off invading hordes of squirrels at 50 yards.

Assault that, mutherfuckers.

If only this is what Robert Redford meant

Why did the liberal cross the road, mommy?

Same as the squirrel, honey. He wanted to die.

Mario Draghi: ECB is Greece's biggest depositor

There's real power, and then there's just power

Seen here this morning:

"We now have a total exposure of €130bn to Greece, that makes us the biggest depositor."

That's actually more than was on deposit at the end of May: 129.9 billion EUR. Deposits are down 108 billion EUR since September 2009, about 45%, squirreled away in other banks outside Greece, and under mattresses at home, which makes it a little risky to leave, say to protest in the streets. Europe has played Greece like a fiddle.

Obama's Real Lie: Hiding His Own Bogus Claim Of Kenyan Birth

Erick Erickson at Red State, here:

The point is not that Barack Obama was born in Kenya. The point is that Barack Obama has repeatedly been perfectly okay embellishing and having others embellish his qualifications and biography to make himself someone unique instead of just another Chicago politician. The pattern goes back to his job as a “financial reporter”. A former colleague of his and Obama fan, way back in 2005, claims Barack Obama really embellished his resume describing his financial related reporting. ...

Barack Obama embellishing his biography to make himself look unique? Hardly worthy of press attention. In fact, nothing Barack Obama has done suggesting serious character flaws — and that’s what this is about — is ever worth the media’s collective attention. Why? Because some people think Barack Obama was born in Kenya, but much of the press corps is pretty damn sure he was born in Bethlehem.

One last point — a friend raised this on email. Could this be why the campaign screams bloody murder about racists and birthers every time someone asks about Barack Obama’s college transcripts? This would explain why Obama is so squirrely about the issue and waited until Donald Trump caused him measurable damage in the polls on this issue before responding. He’s not embarrassed that people will find out he lied about being born in Hawaii; he’s embarrassed they’ll find out he lied about being born in Kenya.
