Did Global Warming Cause Obamunism?
At last, we have evidence that it really is getting warmer at the North Pole, just like envirofascists keep screaming. Remember the final scene in The Blob, when they freeze the mindlessly voracious pile of protoplasm and drop it in the Arctic?
We were safe, until it got warm enough for the creature to thaw. Then it made its way down to Washington, DC. From there, it is spreading out across the country, devouring everything in its path. Just today it absorbed Detroit.
On a tip from Lyle.

Wait a minute...didn't they use CO2 fire extinguishers to immobilize the Blob in the first place? So the CO2 that was used to temporarily immobilize the thing would have been no less than instrumental in its eventual escape, according to greenie logic!
Ah, what an apt allegory of our current situation...

The Downingtown (PA) Diner shown in the clip is just over 20 miles north of the Biden mansion.
Coincidence? I think NOT!!

Steve McQueen - one of my all-time favorite actors. Ya know... He was thrown in jail once in my home town (Anchorage) for driving 90 mph up 4th Street (downtown). Yep - while inebriated...
He also did many of his own stunts - You other Old Farts remember him in the 'Great Escape' when he jumped the fence on a motorcycle running from Nazis? That was him all the way.
Let's see George Clooney do that.

TonyD is right- that Diner still stands in Downingtown, PA. The sign out front used to read, "Home of 'The Blob'". It's painted a little different now, but still remains, a (mostly)forgotten part OF American cinematic history.
