PARASAILING OVER TURKEY. What a beautiful country.

DANA MILBANK: The birthers eat their own. Milbank bends himself into a pretzel attempting to blame the Republican orthodoxy for the 'birthers' and the 'birthers' for racism.

The 'birthers' are wrong, but at least they are consistent in their insistence that eligibility for election the presidency and vice presidency be restricted to children born on American territory of parents who are U.S. citizens at the time of birth. Remember that they challenged Sen. McCain's Republican nomination on the grounds that he was born in Panama.

As for the implied racism charge, it's hard to believe that Milbank doesn't understand that most of the non-'natural citizen' charges (Marco Rubio, Bobby Jindal, Nikki Haley) would be levied against fairly recent immigrants, most of whom are likely of non-caucasian origin.

ANOTHER REASON TO DERAIL OBAMACARE: do you really want your private medical information in government hands?

OSHA: another government agency gone rogue. Since it's virtually impossible to prevent government from being stupid, the next-best thing is to dramatically reduce the size of government.

NO KIDDING: 'Cash for Clunkers', home-buyer tax credits were mistakes.

TRANSPARENCY FOR THEE: Lefty activist demands oped 'transparency,' but hides own funding ties to Big Green, anti-energy groups.

WHAT 'OCCUPY WALL STREET' really wants:

The core essence of their proposals involve $1.5 trillion in new revenue to create 25 million public sector jobs paying union wages, free public transportation, free university education, a single payer health care system and other initiatives. They also favor "reappropriating our business structures and culture, putting people and the earth before profit." Further, they want to end free trade, spend a trillion additional dollars on environmental programs, and forgive all debt.

Straight from the mouths of babes idiots.
