GO FOR IT. Senate environment panel to hit EPA regulations early and often.
UNITED VAN LINES NATIONAL MOVERS STUDY: People are leaving New York and New Jersey en masse. I wonder why....
FOUR OBSERVATIONS prompted by the Paris attack.
HOLY COW, the world's largest Bible printer is in atheist China.
RANDOM THOUGHTS from the retirement lane. Puritanism (The haunting fear that someone, somewhere, is having fun) is now government policy.
COWARDS ALL: "We are not at this time showing Charlie Hebdo cartoons of 'the Prophet'.”

Only cartoonists refuse to be intimidated.
AMERICAN LEFT: The Paris attacks aren't about Islam.
Sure, they may swear by the Koran, and sure, most of them come from the Middle East, and sure, they act with plenty of moral support from Salafist clerics based in the same country where Mecca and Medina are located, but hey — that doesn’t make them Islamic.
Just ignore the shouts of "Allahu Akbar" and professions of "avenging the prophet",
WHAT I’VE LEARNED FROM DROPPING FOX NEWS -- it was a bad idea.
SO 2015 WILL BE WORSE YET? "I have to say, I think my year-end column in 2013 pretty much called it: 'Obama’s 2013 is likely to be similarly ‘average:’ Worse than 2012, but better than 2014.'"
MICHELLE MALKIN: The Black Brunch brats.
BAD NEWS FOR 'CLIMATISTAS': The Medieval Warm Period Lives!
UNEXPECTEDLY? Illinois concealed carry fails to produce hoped for bloodshed and mayhem.

Yes, with the lede being 'unexpectedly?' I was being sarcastic....
CHRISTOPHER HITCHENS predicted Paris (way before his death in 2011).

For proof of Hitchens' correctness, you need only look here.
IN HONOR OF BUGS BUNNY, Seattle ought to be renamed "Maroonville". Seattle bans throwing food away in trash.
I'M ABOUT TO KILL YOU: Volvo cars will warn bicyclists of impending collisions.
WE'RE VICTIMS TOO: Police unions want hate-crime laws to apply to them as well. They make a better case for themselves than the current set of 'victim' groups can possibly make.
KEYSTONE XL VETO THREAT sets early tone for Obama-Congress relationship. You expected something different? Really?
YES, LET'S PAY OUR VICTIMS MORE. Top Democrats pushing minimum wage hike. To ensure loyalty.
FAA GRANTS PERMITS for agriculture and real estate drones.
The permits require that drone operations include both a ground "pilot" and an observer, that the pilot have at least an FAA private pilot certificate and a current medical certificate, and that the drone remains within line of sight of the operator at all times.
A private pilot's license to fly a 1-1/2 pound drone? And a medical certificate?
MORE PLEASE: ISIS beheading their own in the name of 'purity'?
DAY BY DAY gets it right.


The complete cartoon is here.
‘IT’S TIME. RESIGN.’ Retired Cops Fly Huge Anti-De Blasio Banners Past NYC Skyline. When you insist on making a fool of yourself, you should be treated as such.
A CLOSE ENCOUNTER of the ego-bruising kind....
THOMAS SOWELL: The 'Equality' Racket. Liberal dogma seems to suggest that there can be no 'equality' until everyone is a victim....
BRACE FOR STUPID: Well, except for MSNBC, where stupid is to be expected.
DUELING ECONOMISTS: Sachs v. Krugman.

Question: do two half-wits make a whole wit? Or a nitwit?
PASS OUT THE EGGS: There are some faces that need some.

Don't waste good eggs; rotten ones will do.
TWEET OF THE DAY: "I'm starting to think Harry Reid owes money to the mob."
IS THE NOTION of different “learning styles” a dangerous myth? Dangerous, no. Just dumb. Read the comments for confirmation.
