A REMINDER from Walter E. Williams: "Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience."
AFTERBURNER: Bill Whittle takes a look at the state of this country three years into Obama’s rule (registration required; it's free) and has amassed a breathtaking list of Obama administration failures.
CONCERNED:
I am really concerned about North Korea's appointment of the "dear leader" Kim Jung Il's youngest son to be the new leader of North Korea-- a nuclear power!

After all, Kim Jung Un had no military experience whatsoever before daddy made him a four-star general in the military. This is a snot-nose twerp who has never accomplished anything in his life that would even come close to military leadership: he hasn't even so much as led a cub scout troop, coached a sports team or commanded a military platoon. So, setting that aside, next they make him the "beloved leader" of the country. Terrific!

Oh, crap! I'm sorry. I just remembered that we did the same thing here. We took a community organizer who has never worn a uniform and made him Commander-in-Chief; a guy who has never led anything more than an ACORN demonstration and made him the leader of this country. I'm sorry I brought this up, never mind.
