Michelle Obama reveals husband is no lame duck in bed

When Americans voted for the next president in November, President Barack Obama entered the so-called “lame-duck period.” During this time, it is typically considered poor form for the president to pass legislation, especially if his replacement is from the other party. At a recent press conference, however, First Lady Michelle Obama revealed that her husband is no lame duck in their White House bedroom.

As we crawl toward the end of the semester, the snow is starting to fall and the degrees are dropping; it’s enough to make you want to bundle up in layers of flannel and fleece, turn your bedroom into a blanket cave and never leave.  But, sometimes it’s worth it to strip off the layers, adjust the lighting and send the holiday gift that keeps on giving ... Nudes!  I reached out to my fellow Badgers to find out about their experiences with taking pictures that are sure to get them on the naughty list.  1.

almanac animal review: fire ant

FIRE ANT AT A GLANCE: PHYSICAL TRAITS: Super horny, very small (like really really small), has two seemingly pointless limbs on its face. CAREER GOALS: Eventually bang the queen, in the future bump uglies with the queen, reproduce with the queen, spread his genes through the queen. PRIMARY FLAWS: Only cares about work and hooking up wth the queen, can potentially be squashed by almost any human being. SPECIAL ABILITIES: Super romantic, able to lift something 20 times his body weight, has two limbs on his head which are seemingly useless but are actually very important. PLACE OF RESIDENCE: Almost everywhere, in a mound of dirt, wherever he is able to reproduce. FULL REVIEW:  Back in my clubbing days I used to be a wingman for this incredible insect called a fire ant.

Senator Hillary Clinton sets eyes on 2016 presidential election bid

WASHINGTON STATE—Despite the widespread celebration of President Barack Obama’s re-election last night, one notable cabinet member, Hillary Diane Meriwether Jehoshaphat Rodham Clinton, was far too busy to spend the evening clinking drinks.

Two Brothers

Two boys called upon to serve their land, Both believed to have God’s graceful hand. With causes both just in their own minds, Who will be blamed in history’s time? Two boys called upon to ’fend the line With different banners, proud to shine. They call upon the other’s demise But who will be right when the fervor dies? Two boys called upon to bid family farewell And to uphold honor; do your duty they tell. But with destruction wrought on both sides, Mothers’ tears soon fall by hollow shrines. And when we ask who was without flaws, Who truly had the rightful cause? The boy on my side, without hesitation we say, Because he fought for me, I mean no dismay.
