X-Ray eyes watching you!

A new surveillance camera developed in Great Britain make help airport security in the fight against global terrorism, but could also make some folks uncomfortable; it reportedly can see through clothes.

While the technology was developed to detect concealed weapons and other contraband, rather than to determine whether to give you a copy of a book on how to lose weight, it no doubt will make some people – especially women travelers – a bit nervous and just how much it can see under clothing.

Of course, the technology has been there for decades; I remember first coming across it in a comic book as a kid; for only $5.00, back then, you could order those goofy glasses that gave you X-ray vision, just like Superman, so you could spy on your own personal Lois Lane.

A bit seemy, to be sure, but the T5000 camera costs quite a bit more, these days. It’s price runs into the high five figures per unit.

And yes, the comic book thing was a joke, people. Smile once in a while.

Global climate drops!

All the Algore zittoheads and Chicken Littles out there concerned about how CO2 emissions (it’s called breathing, folks, and it makes plants grow) are causing global climate increases can finally breath easy; according to actual climate scientists, this winter has been so cold that global temperatures have dropped by one full degree, wiping out the alleged progess of over 100 years of so-called “global warming.” Winter Park real estate has the climate it should once again!

So, let’s drop the carbon credits scam, the tax hikes and bring back the old refrigerant in our AC units that actually works; we’re back to square one, people! Take your bow, Algore; gloat away, you zittoheads. Somehow, you did it and “unstoppable” global warming has been pushed back 100 years in the mere 12 months since Algore won an Oscar.

Take the credit; just stop taking away our money in confiscatory taxes for fictional reasons. Deal? Deal!

How to lose to a guy in 10 weeks

Hillary Rodham may yet see a movie made of her campaign. With Kate Hudson starring as Hills, opposite perhaps Denzel Washington or Cuba Gooding Jr. as Barack Obama. It could be a follow-up to Hudson’s romantic comedy, “How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days.”

Only, in this case, it would be called, “How to Lose to a Guy In 10 Weeks.”

Senator Rodham will soon be laid up in a back rack from the whiplash the Dem voters are giving her; and now, she perhaps knows how former Democrat loyalist Joe Lieberman felt a couple years ago.

Hills is a dyed-in-the-wool, MoveOn.org socialist liberal, but she made one voting mistake; voting to support the war on terror. Obama, who has never been called on this, constantly points out that he never supported the war, “from the beginning.”

Hold on, Senator Obama, but you weren’t a US Senator back then! Sure, while you were serving in the Illinois congress, you may have been annoyed by the war, may have even opposed it, but you weren’t in a federal office to vote on the issue.

This overstatement is so obvious, and Hills’ team so afraid to critique Obama on the issues, that even though the statement is a whopper, no one has even once turned to him and said, “Senator Obama, I was a US Senator when that vote was cast. You weren’t.”

Seems simple enough. But for her lack of courage to even say the bloody obvious, Hillary’s campaign is going down in flames. I don’t weep for her, but it is things like this that have put her where she is.

Perhaps when Hudson’s movie version hits the screen, she’ll dump a philandering Bill, steal Obama from his wife, and marry her way into the White House once again, just like the faux femanist she’s always been.
