Fed up with his unsuccessful scarecrows thus far, a Surrey farmer has dressed his up in Lady Gaga-inspired clothing. Nigel Britten, the farmer who is using the LG scarecrow, was struck by the idea after seasons of unsuccessful scarecrow usage. His fiancee commented on Gaga’s rather terrifying look at the Brit Awards, and now he’s having fewer and fewer problems everyday.
The unwed daughter of Sarah Palin has been offered a spot on one of TV’s fave family shows, and Bristol was excited to accept. Appearing on “The Secret Life of the American Teenager,” Bristol will be playing herself.
The nineteen-year-old is “thrilled” to be on the show, and added, that she hoped her example would make other teens think twice before engaging in sexual activities in the teen years.
Is this the love child of Obama’s Communist logo and the most identifiable image of “the religion of peace?” Real threatening.

Rounding off the week-long event known as CPAC, Ron Paul made it out with the most votes as a promising Republican Party nominee, with 31% of the attendee population. The announcement was made to both cheers and boos, though, perhaps out of the GOP’s fear of electing yet another snoozy old white man as the party’s frontrunner.
Following Paul were Romney with 22%, Palin with 7%, Pawlenty with 6%, Pence with 5%, and Gingrich with 4%.
Obama has finally beaten Bush’s record. The current prez has gone 215 days without holding a formal press conference, beating Bush’s record by one day. And it doesn’t seem to stop there. Obama has no intentions to have formal and public press conferences anytime soon, despite running on platforms to be the most transparent president ever.
The last time BO had a press conference, it ended disastrously when he idiotically called out a white cop for “acting stupidly” when following protocol resulted in a black man being arrested. Obama has since moved into closed doors discussions to avoid such public embarrassment.
