A Truth Journal: Check Out Colbert Report Features Indie Band Lake Street Dive: 3 videos - and interview with band members.

From Denny:  While Al-Qaeda whines about how other terrorist groups [in addition to them] are fighting each other in Syria and behaving badly, the Colbert Bump is in full swing back here in America.

Oh, come on, Sec. of State Kerry and President Obama, just sit back and wait for all those terrorists coalescing in Syria to thrash it out until there are fewer groups.  Then you send in the drones.  Let these guys do your work for you.

Look at it this way:  Stupid is as stupid does.  Terrorist groups continue to mass in Syria.  Well, we sure know where to find them.  It will be like shooting fish in a barrel.  At least the IC should be tagging and identifying these now easy to find terrorists.

Meanwhile, rather than write yet another political post and yell at the TV news tonight, our house switched over to Colbert Report and found this awesome indie music group.  These folks will definitely benefit from the Colbert Bump.  But, you know what, they have game - and lots of it.

Dennys Global Politics: White House Press Briefing: Trade, Arms Control Treaties, Afghan Corruption, Sochi Olympics, Unemployment: Press Gaggle aboard Air Force One en route WI, 1/30/14: From Denny:  Just so you can see how the press interacts with the White House and how the White House responds on the issues of the day - and unfiltered.  At least this level of transparency has been fulfilled by this President.  His record on the NSA?  Not so good at all.

Another bone to pick with my fellow media:  Why isn't ALL of this news that's being discussed in these White House press briefings getting out to the public?  Morning shows spend way too much time discussing Justin Bieber's hair, clothes and antics to shed his Good Boy image rather than informing about world issues that easily affect our economy, our families' security and our ability to hold long-term and well-paying jobs...

A Truth Journal: WTF? Daily Show Rats Out Pentagon Denying PTSD Help 40 Years: Insulting Vietnam Vets: From Denny:  It's gotten to the point in America that the only way military veterans can get the help they need is to take to the airwaves, especially comedy shows, to inform the public and put pressure on Pentagon officials and politicians.

These two Vietnam War era veterans are interviewed on the Daily Show, revealing how absolutely ridiculous is the "leadership" at the Pentagon.  Is it any wonder we have the pompous a$$e$ installed at the helm of the NSA and its ensuing outrageous mass global surveillance for the past two administrations?

A Truth Journal: Jon Stewart Mocks New Jersey Obvious: Gov. Chris Christie Payback Scandal: 

3 funny videos.
From Denny:  Talk about the typical greedy politician.  Need a good laugh?  Wait until you hear what Jon Stewart had to say about Republican 2016 contender Rep. Paul Ryan's imagined thoughts - upon hearing of Christie's investigation misfortunes.  (Ryan was Romney's horrifically bad choice for VP in 2012.)

Comic Jon Stewart wastes no time exploiting the latest political scandal.  New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie was up beyond 20 points ahead of his competition in the election, winning his second term in November.  But, in September, to ensure he mocked his Democrat competition, Christie just had to grind them in the ground. He does carry the reputation of the excessive bully like a cheap suit, complete with full blown temper tantrums - which Stewart reveals on tape.

A Truth Journal: Jon Stewart Applauds No NSA Reforms Proposed By President Obama:

2 funny videos.
From Denny:  Were you all waiting anxiously on the edge of your seat for President Obama to announce the historical sweeping NSA reforms?  Yeah, me too.  I went to bed early because we all knew the Obama reforms were a non-starter.

Looks like even America's comics agree with me.  Gee, for all my fussing and cussing at the NSA trolls harassing me as both a journalist and an annoying NSA critic (to them) complaining of their incompetence, I noticed today they had returned to their usual WTF stalking.  Yes, DNI Clapper, your NSA gremlins did not obey you for long when you told them to lay off journalists and me in particular.

A Truth Journal: Funny Ad: Clean Up Congress: Pee Pads For Washington Politicians

A Truth Journal: Funny Ad: Clean Up Congress: Pee Pads For Washington Politicians: From Denny:  Want to teach your politicians how to pee properly - instead of lifting their leg on you?  Just check out these new and improved pee pads for your favorite animal left indoors while you are away at work.  It's tough to trust your pet politician when you are not there to watch over their antics.

You just never know what they will do to smell up your home if you aren't there to stop them.  You just never know when they will pee on your leg unexpectedly.  They do so love to stink up the place with last minute legislation, earmarks and no-bid contracts at midnight that no one has been allowed to read in time before a crucial vote.
