AMERICA'S COMEBACK TEAM makes a big splash.
MARS ROVER CURIOSITY to get a 'brain transplant' to transition from landing to exploring.
VICTOR DAVIS HANSON: Our best and brightest aren't. "Our civilization is under assault. Those who have taken upon themselves to direct it are instead doing their own part to destroy it."
HEH. "Democrats don’t think that capitalism works within the atmosphere, and Republicans apparently don’t think it works above it."
SOCIAL SECURITY DEFICITS to add up fast. Well, they should; I'm sucking at the government teat as hard as I can.

UPDATE: We just found out in the mail today that the government wants to pay us more!
ELECTRIC FIRES: second Fisker Karma burns. I guess smoke isn't an environmental pollutant.
NOT GONNA HAPPEN: "The Democratic Party electoral strategy in 2012 asks Grandparents ... to throw their grandchildren off a fiscal cliff."
PHOTOS: Inside the Mars landing. Ignore the annoying ads that keep reappearing throughout the gallery of pictures.
ROMNEY-RYAN TICKET puts entitlement crisis at center of campaign. Now we'll see if Americans have the courage to face the crisis.

Added: the video of Ryan's evisceration of ObamaCare.


WHY I LIKE TEAM ROMNEY: "When your child earns a place on the honor roll, we don't credit the school bus driver who drove him there."
THEY COULD TRY TO GET REAL JOBS: Federal workers fret about jobs as sequestration looms.
ROMNEY'S HORSE
So the Romneys are selfish for keeping a horse? And employing a groom with a family to support. And paying for feed that’s sold by someone with a family to support and transported in trucks by someone with a family to support and manufactured in a factory by people with families to support from stuff that’s grown by farmers with families to support. And having a barn built by construction workers with families to support with materials trucked by drivers with families to support from factories with workers with families to support. Sounds to me like that one horse has done more to put Americans to work than that horse’s ass in the White House.
From my email.
JOHN RANSOM: Washington's Take is Now More than Wall Street's. Under Obama, we are now the 1%.
THERE'S A REASON for the Obama administration's lack of transparency.
AMERICA: Olbermann's Worst County in the World? Not quite.
YES, WE CAN lie, cheat, and steal.
THE CURIOSITY ROVER happened to catch a picture of its own ride crash-landing on Mars — a wink-of-an-eye serendipity....
HISTORICAL NOTE: The USS Paul Ryan USS Wisconsin is a battleship.
WHEN DID MILK become bad for you? The problem with experts is that they're usually wrong; the problem with experts in government is that we suffer when they're wrong.
OBAMA: Flailing and Failing. My personal ObamaMeter reads the same.
