‘Reality slap’ photo puts first lady’s hashtag activism in brutal perspective [pic]

Michelle Obama’s contribution to the #BringBackOurGirls campaign came weeks after a Nigerian activist launched the hashtag that helped interest journalists in the terrorist kidnapping of hundreds of Nigerian schoolgirls. The teenybopper administration might believe in “the promise of hashtag,” but the first lady’s frowny-faced photo has been widely criticized as late-to-the-table, impotent slacktivist feelgoodery.

Here’s the response from Jack of Ranger Up that Blackfive says “sums up my feelings about pouty Twits believing that social media works better than action.”

O-Bam! Stacey Dash blasts Obama with single snark-word [video]

http://twitter.com/#!/Wellfonder/status/428567604995710976

As Twitchy readers know, actress Stacey Dash is still on receiving end of vicious hate and demise desires. The reason why? mainly because she actually is a Republican. That doesn’t suit the oh-so-tolerant Left.

Ms. Dash isn’t cowed and continues to talk truth.

http://twitter.com/#!/REALStaceyDash/status/430542486571069440

O-Bam! We come across everything you performed here, Ms. Dash! The @BarackObama Twitter account incessantly tweets away lies aided by the term “FACT” before all of them, as if which makes the lies real. Nailing with one well-placed snark word? Achieved!

Ms. Dash in addition weighed in on what she agrees had been best elements of Sunday night’s Super Bowl.

http://twitter.com/#!/REALStaceyDash/status/430148909642825728

Amen.

http://twitter.com/#!/smiles813/status/429044738528772097

Hold speaking genuine truth to energy, Ms. Dash.

‘American Idol’ viewers still wondering: Why is Harry Connick Jr. so orange? Or yellow?

http://twitter.com/#!/JillK42/status/428714075632062465

New “American Idol” judge Harry Connick Jr. has won raves for his music theory expertise and fresh injection of energy on the talent show’s panel. But as Twitchy noted a few weeks ago, many admirers are alarmed by his rather unnatural color.

Tonight, inquiring minds still wondered: Why so orange, Harry? Or yellow? Scary!

‘Can a magazine jump a shark?’ The New Republic redefines ‘voter suppression’

“Didja hear how the GOP is suppressing the vote?” “Dogs? Water cannons?”’ “WORSE. They’re, gasp, LEAVING A DEM ON THE BALLOT!” “…”

— Sonny Bunch (@SonnyBunch) September 05, 2014

Welp, give The New Republic points for creativity with this one:

http://twitter.com/#!/tnr/status/507980510405357569

So here’s the deal: Kansas Democrat Chad Taylor has been running against incumbent GOP Senator Pat Roberts, but the Independent candidate is currently beating him in the polls. So, what’s a flailing Dem to do? Why, drop out of the race, of course.

Unfortunately for Taylor, Kansas’ secretary of state isn’t letting him off the hook so easily. And The New Republic really doesn’t like that. Because … voter suppression?

The case will now go to the courts. Election law guru Rick Hasen writes that though Taylor has a case, the question of what the courts will do is a tossup. If they rule for Kobach, then Democrats will have to undertake the awkward task of asking voters not to vote for the Democrat on the ballot. But they’ll also have vouchsafed the strategy Republicans always employ when they fear the electorate isn’t on their side. Normally that means making it hard for Democrats to vote in the first place. This time around it means trying to trick low-information Democrats into voting for a candidate who isn’t running. But it’s still voter suppression.

It is? Since when?

Uh, that’s “Kornacki,” guys. He hosts a weekend show — on your network.

Russell Johnson, probably best known for playing “The Professor” on the classic “Gilligan’s Island,” passed away this morning. He was 89.

His “Island” costar Dawn Wells expressed her grief over the loss of her friend:

As Twitchy reported, Obama and the Democrats are engaged in full-on fits of ecstasy over the news that Obamacare signups (read: not necessarily enrollments) have supposedly surpassed the 7 million mark:

President Obama’s even going to take to the stage to give himself a special round of applause:

http://twitter.com/#!/HealthCareTara/status/451077974146969600

Lucky us.

Here’s the thing, though: As of yet, the White House has been less than forthcoming with any real, concrete data about signups or enrollments, at least with the public. So, we’re not about to start taking them at their word now.
