Scared Monkeys Turns 20,000,000 … A Special Thanks to All Our Readers

SCARED MONKEYS … 20,000,000 Served!

We would like to thank all of our past and present readers and commenters on both the Front page and in our Forums. Thank you for being a part of Scared Monkeys. Thank you for taking the time to make a difference. Don’t ever think that your voice cannot be heard.

Scared Monkeys has always been about providing an array of news, politics, current event stories, crime, missing persons, humor, Vanderbilt’s artwork and editorials so that you the reader can become informed and participate and be interactive in the process. 20,000,000 visits later and nearly 60,000,000 page views. Many first became associated with SM during the Natalee Holloway case. Many others have become readers and members since.

A long the way having MSM producers, state, local and federal LE reading through the numerous posts and comments. Scared Monkeys has always treasured it’s relationship with Texas Equusearch and the selfless volunteer work they do for families of of missing. Scared Monkeys has been featured on TV, radio and print.  SM  has provided back ground info to MSM and made special guest appearance on Court TV going up against the bad guys. SM has also been a part of many missing person and crime cases behind the scenes and even found it’s way into the exhibits for the defense in the Kalpoe’s v. Dr Phil case.

Scared Monkeys was always meant to be a community where one could go for a multitude of stories. The main focus is obviously crime, missing persons and politics. However, SM has also been a place to have fun as well. I learned a long tome ago if you cannot laugh at yourself, who can you laugh at. However, there is also a serious side to what SM does. We have not just written about crime and missing persons cases, we have participated in them as well. SM was one of the first to put their volunteerism where their keyboard was an participate in searches for the missing. I will never forget the day that Tim Miller asked whether I wanted to help search for Natalee Holloway. It was not about covering a story, it was about helping find a missing girl. We thank the many Monkeys who have taken the time and given  of them self for other in helping in missing person searches as well.

A long the road we have been fortunate enough to bring on Dana Pretzer of The Dana Pretzer Show and the multitude of amazing guests and pundits that have taken part in his weekly show. Ask yourself, what guest that you see on TV who has not been a special guest on Dana’s show? With guests like Wendy Murphy, Clint Van Zandt, Tim Miller, Pat Brown, Dog the Bounty Hunter, Stacy Dittrich, Diane Dimond, Mark Williams, Cyril Wecht and Robin Sax just to name a few.

Most recently we have added Blink and Blink on Crime to the Scared Monkeys stable.All one has to do is read the crime posts and instantly understand the tremendous work and dedication that she and her team do on crime stories. BOC is a site unto itself that has taken off due to the great writing and sleuthing by Blink and her investigative team. For exclusive, original content there is no where else to go. BOC has instantly become one of the best new crime blogs on the Internet today.

Lastly, I would be remiss not to thank you, the readers. You make it possible. Although we never expect everyone to agree all the time we are appreciative that it is most respectful.  A thanks also goes out to our Forum moderators, San, CBB, Nut44×4, 2NJson, Bearlyhere and Muffybee.  A special thanks goes to Klaas. Anyone who reads or has spent time on Scared Monkeys knows the hard work that Klaas provided. Thanks!

It has been an amazing ride with so many bumps, turns, hills, valleys and server crashes. Thanks to all who made it possible and here is to the future and the many innovations and special surprises down the road.

With Much Appreciation, Red

Rush Limbaugh: “Scozzafava Has Screwed Every RINO in the Country”

OMG … This is too funny and dead on satire.

Rush says that “Scozzafava has screwed ever RINO in the country. We can say that she is guilty of wide spread beastiality”.  So-called Republican candidate for NY-23 endorses the Democrat? Beware of RINO’s in liberal clothing.

 H/T: Gateway Pundit

2010 is going to be a nightmare for PETA. Two animals might become extinct, RINO’s and Blue Dog Democrats.

Pelosi is going to kill off Blue Dog Democrats and Conservatives are going to finally get rid of RINO’s.

Now This Is Funny … MSNBC’s Contessa Brewer Can’t Tell the Difference Between Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson … Oops!!!

Yet another MSNBC interview worthy of the MSM Hall of Fame …

Talk about your ignorant teleprompter reading news media. MSNBC’s Contessa Brewer can’t seem to tell the difference between the Reverend Al Sharpton and the Reverend Jesse Jackson. I guess all reverends look the same to her.

This is priceless … HAHAHAHAHAHA, Jesse did not look amused.

 Reverend Jesse Jackson … “um, I’m Reverend Jesse Jackson”

Brewer’s response: “I’m so sorry, the – the script in front of me said Reverend Al Sharpton…I know who you are, Reverend Jackson.”

To Contessa Brewer’s defense, it is difficult to tell the difference between bottom-feeding demagogues? as after a while they do tend to sound the same.

Just a reminder to Contessa, Jesse Jackson is the one who wanted to “cut Obama’s nuts off”. Al Sharpton is the one who advanced the Tawana Brawley case.

Could you imagine, just imagine if this took place if Jackson was doing this interview on FOX News? Just imagine if Jesse Jackson had the courage to be interviewed by Rush Limbaugh and this occurred? Do you not think that the first thing that would come from Jackson would be a defensive and accusatory comments like … what, you can’t tell who I am, you think we all look the same? But when it comes from BSNBC, we all realize it’s not racism, its just plain incompetence.

Cindy & George Anthony, Lee and Mallory on a Cruise … Caption Contest … Hey Casey, Wish You Were Here

Did Cindy, George, Lee and Mallory send Casey Anthony a post card from their Caribbean vacation … having a great time jail bird, wish you were here.

The Anthony clan takes a cruise ship vacation to the Caribbean while 48 Hours runs a TV special focusing on the case of the murder of Caylee Anthony. According to this report from Eyewitness News, the Anthonys received $20,000 for an interview on that special.

Cindy and George Anthony apparently left their daughter’s murder trial hearing last Friday and headed to Port Canaveral for a 4-day Bahamian cruise on the Monarch of the Seas. That comes after George told prosecutors under oath that no one will hire them and, just to make ends meet, they had to accept a few thousand dollars from the CBS network for an exclusive interview that aired Saturday night. Cindy told prosecutors it was more like $20,000.

They must have been looking for Caylee’s killer on the cruise ship. Yeah, that’s the ticket. Hey, Doc, Gopher, Captain Stubbing … have you seen Caylee’s killer?

CAPTION CONTEST

Ship of Fools

Think it’s a coincidence that no one is sitting around them?

Give us your best caption to the pic above. This should be like shooting fish in a barrel. There are no bigger softballs that this.

Let’s see ‘em.

Okay, I will start the first volley … George says to the clan, wonder what Casey is doing … Cindy replies, I don’t know I am worried about her now put some more sun tan lotion on me and sit down, you’re blocking my sun.

Cindy says, I checked on the Lido decks, no one there killed Caylee either.

OUTRAGE: What Do You Mean that Barack Hussein Obama did not win the Nobel Prize for Economics

WHAT DO YOU MEAN OBAMA DID NOT WIN THE NOBEL PRIZE FOR ECONOMICS!!!

The Nobel Prize was awarded for economics and the winner was a shocker! The prize did not go to President Barack Hussein Obama. Americans Elinor Ostrom and Oliver Williamson won the Nobel Prize for economics for work on how community institutions can prevent conflict. What? We demand a recount! I mean come on, Barack Obama deserved to win the Nobel Prize for Economics just as much as he did for the Nobel Peace Prize.

How could Ostrom and Williamson beat The One?  Barack Obama or at least Tim “Turbo Tax” Geithner should have won for the tremendous work that they have done with the $787 stimulus pork barrel package that has yet to create the jobs they claimed, the 9.8% US unemployment and federal deficits for as far as generations to come can see. What better economic policy could there be than to raise taxes and deficits in the teeth of a recession. Hey after all, “Cash for Clunkers” did make money for Asian auto makers.

Barack Obama was heard to say that he was surprised that he did not win the Nobel Prize for economics as he had spent 11 days in office as President putting the United States in debt up to it’s eyeballs and had thought about transforming the capitalist economy of the US to a socialist one for years. I thought the Nobel Prize rewarded socialism and weakening the United States. Maybe I should have weakened the US dollar some more? Obama was then heard to say … well there is always next year’s award.

Gasps came from the crowd as the Nobel Prize for economics was awarded to the two Americans. Oops, that’s right.The gasps came from the onlookers when an undeserving Obama won the Nobel Peace Prize. Obama already had his Economic prize winning speech ready:

“Let me be clear: I do not view it as a recognition of my own accomplishments, but rather as an affirmation of American leadership on behalf of aspirations held by people in all nations,” he said at the White House. “To be honest, I do not feel that I deserve to be in the company of so many of the transformative figures who’ve been honored by this prize.

Obama looks forward to the Major League Baseball, NBA and NFL’s MVP voting. And of course the Heisman.

SNL: Barack Obama Wins Nobel Peace Prize and Powerball on First Try … “I won the Nobel for not being George Bush.”

SNL mocks Barack Obama for winning the Nobel Peace Prize. I guess SNL is siding with the terrorists as well for laughing and making mock of Barack Obama?

Obama: “I won the Nobel for not being George Bush.”

Obama: “This award comes as a complete surprise as I have only been not George W. Bush for 9 months.”

The sad reality is that in order to have been nominated to make the Feb 1st deadline, Barack Obama only had to not be GWB for 11 days.

It appears that Barack Obama has also won the Power Ball lottery on his first try. Next up, the Heisman. Is it too late to nominate Barack Obama as the MVP of MLB? After all, The One did have quite an impressive opening pitch at this years All-Star game, not!

Just as a reminder for those who may have missed the comments from the DNC, via the Politico. Who dare mock and make fun of “The One”, the “Obamamessiah”.

“The Republican Party has thrown in its lot with the terrorists - the Taliban and Hamas this morning - in criticizing the President for receiving the Nobel Peace prize,” DNC communications director Brad Woodhouse told POLITICO. “Republicans cheered when America failed to land the Olympics and now they are criticizing the President of the United States for receiving the Nobel Peace prize - an award he did not seek but that is nonetheless an honor in which every American can take great pride - unless of course you are the Republican Party.

“The 2009 version of the Republican Party has no boundaries, has no shame and has proved that they will put politics above patriotism at every turn. It’s no wonder only 20 percent of Americans admit to being Republicans anymore - it’s an embarrassing label to claim,” Woodhouse said.

Life Imitating Satire … The Nobel Peace Prize Becomes the Ultimate Joke to SNL’s “Do Nothing” Obama Presidency

How comical and absurd was Obama’s being awarded the Nobel Peace Prize? Saturday Night Live’s satire of  their liberal Obamamessiah President as a record of nothing and a do nothing Commander and Chief was more of an actual commentary as to The One’s time in office than a spoof.

Last week we commented on SNL’s scathing satire of Barack Obama and his “do nothing” Presidency. SNL stated, Obama was not a socialist. Barack Obama had a RECORD OF NOTHING. Almost one year and nothing to show for it …

One really glaring issue is brought up in the humorous comparison between SNL and the Noble Peace Prize decision. SNL stated one year and Obama has done nothing so it begs to ask the question what did Obama do in 11 days as President? Would not the nomination of a Nobel candidate have to include their accomplishments? How could the Nobel Peace Prize committee consider accomplishments of a nominee that were not on an application? Hmm? The answer is, you can’t.

The deadline for nominations is Feb. 1, meaning the president was nominated after being in office for just 11 days.

The award is “extraordinarily unprecedented,” Michael Worek, author of “Nobel: A Century of Prize Winners,” told ABC News.

“It would be like awarding the Oscar halfway through the movie. You’re not saying it’s a bad movie, you aren’t knocking it. But we just don’t know how it ends,” Worek said.

See VIDEO HERE

However, the writers at SNL were out done this past week on the comedy front. Barack “a record of nothing” Obama was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for literally doing nothing. When it was first announced that Obama won the award the first thing people did was check the calendar to make sure that it was not April Fool’s Day. Who didn’t think that this was a goof or a news report from either The Onion or Scrappleface when they were read it?

Trouble in Democratic Paradise: Speaker Pelosi’s Eye Roll When Harry Reid Touches Her and Lies

Now this is priceless … How do you really feel San Fran Nan?

Democrat Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi will never confuse being “touched by an Angel” with being touched by Democrat Majority leader, Nevada Senator Harry Reid.

Wow, this little diddy has all the looks of that uncomfortable moment of a blind date or the creepy, older, touchy-feely uncle giving a hug. The body language and facial expression on Pelosi is priceless. The eyeroll is even more amazing when considering Botox.

Pelosi insisted Wednesday that it wasn’t so, telling POLITICO that she was “not upset,” adding: “I don’t know where you would have heard such a thing.”

SNL Rips Barack Obama for not Being a Socialist, But for Being a Do Nothing President … A Record of NOTHING!

Looking at the List of Obama accomplishments, SNL sees just two … JACK and SQUAT!

Has SNL finally understands what makes humor funny when it comes to the Liberals messiah? The answer is a truth. For months we have said that if you want humor as pertains to Barack Obama you only need look at the facts and the truth of his administration. Nothing mean, just the truth.

SNL makes mock of Barack Obama’s Presidential election and his mandate of “Change you can Believe In.” SNL says Obama is not a Socialist … he is instead a do nothing President.

There are those on the right that think that Barack Obama is changing America into the Soviet Union or Nazi Germany. Because when you actually look at his recored, it is very clear what he has done so far and that is … NOTHING!

Almost one year and nothing to show for it as SNL provides a check list of Obama campaign promises:

• On his first day in office Obama promised he would close GITMO – NO
• I said we would be out of Iraq – NO
• I said there would be improvements in the War in Afghanistan – NO, it’s actually worse.
• Healthcare reform – HELL NO
• Tried to bring the Olympics to Chicago in 2016 – NO

The SNL skit also goes on to say that I [Barack Obama] do not understand why the Right is so riled up, imagine how the Left feels? I am sure that the Left would have thought that Obama would have addressed one of the following things by now. All are NO’s.

• Global Warming
• Immigration Reform
• Gays in the Military
• Limits of Executive Powers
• Torture Prosecutions

However, Obama does have a couple of accomplishment … the cash for clunkers program stimulated the economy. Unfortunately it was the economy of Japan. Obama killed a fly on TV. Obama also brought a white police officer and a black professor together for a beer, who else could do that? Ok, Oprah, but no one else!

It’s pretty bad when the liberal bastion of comedy that all but refused to poke fun of Obama because they said in the past, nothing he does is humorous, finally does.

However, the truth of the matter is that Barack Obama might have actually accomplished many of the above socialist changes to the United States had it not been for the voice and the opposition of the Tea Party movement and “WE THE PEOPLE”.
