Looks like the ole Godfather found the smoking gun

There has been a lot of talk in this country about just what ideology our dear president holds. Is he the most moderate Democrat in the last 70 years? Some would say so, with fancy line graphs to back up their assertion and everything. Then you have others, like the governor of Louisiana, who seem to hold a different view. Then there are the libertarians, who often seem to think that Obama is simply another neo-con in Democrat clothing.

The one thing that we can say with some degree of certainty is that a lot of people like to call the president a socialist, and a lot of other people get pretty pissed when that happens. Until now the 'Obama is a socialist' crowd have had to rely on comparative political analysis, pitting the president's views against those of self-professed socialists in Europe. It's a fair exercise, but most of the Tea Party crowd aren't picturing a European social democracy when they talk about the president. They're talking about a good old fashioned commie. That label is a little more difficult to justify... until now.

I was taking a quiz online a little while ago. There was a list of the U.S. presidents' names, but they were spelled in the Russian form of the Cyrillic alphabet. I got them all right eventually, although I did have to pause the game in order to decode the different characters and relate them to the English names. My score on the quiz is not the point here though. Just take a look at the list and see what stands out to you.



Some of those loony liberal types might try to tell you that this is just an odd coincidence, but I know better. We've had presidents in this country for more than 220 years. None of their names are recognizable in that crazy commie language. None of them except one, that is. They have been planning for the arrival of Comrade Obama for quite some time, it would appear.

I remarked to my brother today, as we left Joe Louis Arena, that you don't always buy the ticket to experience the game. You can watch the game on television, after all. Sometimes you buy the ticket to experience the walk back to your parking spot. After the Irish won the last ever CCHA championship this afternoon in Detroit, that walk back to the parking spot was a beauty. Absolute silence. The same Michigan fans who were hooting and hollering after their early 1-0 lead were forced to simply shut the fuck up and accept reality for what it is.

Notre Dame beat Michigan five times out of five this season.

Notre Dame caused Michigan to miss the NCAA tournament for the first time in more than 20 years, likely securing a #1 seed for the Irish in the process.

Notre Dame sent Red Berenson out on a loss. Heh. (Although, to be fair, Red's two national titles are infinitely more than Bo's zero.)

The little douchebags to our left, doing the weird 'whoop whoop' thing during Michigan penalty kills, had to sit and suffer as my brother did the same following each of Notre Dame's three glorious goals.

Notre Dame will own the Mason Cup... forever.
