Democrats’ Tat For Limbaugh’s Tit

Forty-one Senate Democrats did what they do best once again — they wasted time.* Instead of doing the real business of governing, they put their collective heads together to get into a war of words with radio show host and political commentator Rush Limbaugh.
Just for the record:
Limbaugh is paid to sling barbs at Congress.
Congress is […]

Terror Behind The Knob

A woman recently found herself locked inside a medical facility and called the police, who upon arriving simply had her unlock the door from the inside. I was going to make fun of her, but after a second reading of the news report, I began to sympathize with the trapped woman…

Indian Run

One tradition that never grows old in America is pandering to special interests, especially if there’s some good PR to be had.

This Chick Is The Bomb!

If Star Simpson (not pictured here) wanted to get featured on BentSense, she would have been better off claiming to be OJ’s long-lost daughter. Instead, she almost got herself shot. Many times. With a lot of bullets. All in the name of “art.”
Art? A sweatshirt with a circuit board, a battery, some wires and flashing […]

Conversations With Jesus

Politically Correct? Comments (8)

bs-hammock-guy.jpgMany times when I am troubled or confused, I seek comfort in my hammock, sipping on a drink, conversing with Jesus. On one particular day, I found myself mired in self-doubt.

“Jesus,” I asked, “why do I work so hard?”

And I heard the reply: “Men find many ways to demonstrate the love they have for their family. You work hard to have a peaceful, beautiful place for your friends and family to gather.”

“I thought that money was the root of all evil,” I responded.

And the reply was: “No, the LOVE of money is the root of all evil. Money is a tool; it can be used for good or for bad”.

I was starting to feel better, but I still had a question bubbling up inside of me and could not resist prolonging the conversation, so I asked it. “Jesus,” I said, “what is the meaning of life? Why am I here?” Click to continue

Survey Shows That CEOs Are Bad Liars

Money, Silly Salesmen, Uncategorized Comments (2)

According to a survey conducted by a business-beholden think tank, CEOs around the world do not - I repeat, do not - rank profit as their number one concern.

And we are supposed to believe this bald-faced lie. Because despite any CEO’s survey check mark, the primary goal of any business is to make money. Otherwise they would register themselves as a not-for-profit organization. Plus, as every CEO of a company that is publicly held and/or beholden to a board of directors knows, his or her job security - of which there is none - relies on what it says on the balance sheet’s bottom line. That’s why there are layoffs, down-sizings, belt-tightening, and the hiring of outside consultants to insult and scare the company’s own employees.

Please, CEO survey takers — do not mistake the working-person’s brown nose for stupidity.

But alas, the CEOs go on to compound their already huge lie with another one — they rank as their number one concern execution.

At first I thought they were referring to their own ability to kill the hopes, dreams, and very souls of their own employees, but by “execution” they actually mean to say they care about HOW a job gets done, regardless of results. Perhaps such a lie is suppose to keep us from seeing them step on their own dead-mother’s body on the way to the top of the corporate ladder.

But are any of us really that blind?
