All the ignorantly blissful little lambs who scoff at the idea of the Second Amendment being about protecting the American people from a government heading toward tyranny got a big healthy dose of reality Monday when a classified memo was leaked detailing the Obama administration’s justification for assassinating American citizens. Call it death by drone without due process.

In honor of this major step towards tyranny, yesterday, the hashtag #ReplaceSongTitleWithDrone was trending all over Twitter.

Celebrity-coined and paid-for-promotion hashtags are all fine and dandy, but for me, Twitter is at its very best when an everyday, average Joe or Josephine can send out a tweet with a hashtag they coined themselves and suddenly, it just strikes a chord that echoes out all across the Twittersphere.

Such was the case with this one from TxAv8r whose tweet started it all:

It took off from there.

Some of the tweets are worthy of top status simply becuase they fit in with the original so well:

Of course, all this was sure to ruffle a few feathers:

After checking their profile, you can be sure this person tweeted his John Lennon remake with a straight face and heartfelt sincerity:

But the best tweets found a song titles that spoke directly to the madness of what’s going on:

Runner up for best #ReplaceSongTitleWithDrone tweet:

And finally, the top tweet on the hashtag, sung from the perspective of King Obama himself . . .

Bam!

So there you have it, folks. Are we done here?

Well who would have guessed it? Maybe the biggest story from the inauguration was the first lady and her new hairdo. The media was absolutely gushing:

Matt Lauer: New term, new ‘do. First Lady Michelle Obama changes up her hairstyle with a bang as the final preparations are being made in Washington to host the President’s second inaugural.

NBC Nightly News anchor Brian Williams took time out of the broadcast to provide this supposed “news” update: “First Lady Michelle Obama turned 49 today. But the big news came as the First Lady’s office inaugurated a Twitter account and sent out this picture showing the First Lady’s new bangs. Which Vanity Fair’s website instantly praised, calling them ‘featherly,’ and tracing their lineage in hair terms to Brigitte Bardot.”

White House correspondent Kristen Welker proclaimed: “The buzz over her bangs was immediate. People magazine tweeted: ‘Guess who’s turning 49 with bangs? Yep. bday girl @michelleobama debuted a fab new cut.’”

“Fab” was the exact word that came to my mind.

Amazing that we have to explain the process of amending the Constitution to a guy the media sold us on as some sort of brilliant constitutional scholar.

Remedial Course for the Constitutional Scholar

Please note that the executive branch, executive orders and the office of the president are never mentioned in any way with the process of amending the Constitution.

“No Congress? No problem.” That’s the attitude of the so-called constitutional scholar who now resides in the White House. I have news for you, King Barry. Now that you don’t have to worry about being re-elected, you may think you can trample the Constitution without being held accountable, but on that, you couldn’t be any more mistaken.

From an Oregon sheriff vowing not to enforce unconstitutional gun control laws to a lawsuit challenging federal gun control in Montana to a Texas lawmaker proposing arrest for any feds who try enforcing new gun regulations in their state, this attempt to disarm the citizens is a fight the would-be tyrants on the left are going to wish they’d never started.

For youngsters who may be curious about mommy’s pregnancy and how it happened, in trying to avoid the nitty gritty details, many parents have often resorted to the old tale about the stork delivering the baby in a basket.

I prefer this explanation from Canadian photographer Patrice Laroche, as seeing is believing:

How To Make a Baby 1

How To Make a Baby 2

How To Make a Baby 3

How To Make a Baby 4

How To Make a Baby 5

How To Make a Baby 6

How To Make a Baby 7

Nice.

Laroche created his “How to Make a Baby” photo series carrying out the project through the 9 months, taking pictures in the exact same settings as Sandra’s belly expanded.
