BUT IT'S NOT IN HIS PROPOSAL: Obama Touts Minneapolis Initiative That Put Cops in Schools.
STUPID: Washington state considers final gender-neutral language bill.


One would think they had more important things to do. One would be wrong.

SOME ADVICE to the President on his skeet shooting. (The advice to 'widen his stance' was particularly amusing.)
DANA MILBANK: With a friend like this....

This, from someone who believes friends don't let friends drive drunk (unless it's to his benefit).
WHAT TO DO when you reach the limits of big government?
WASHINGTON POST: The case for a national ID card.
Inevitably, there would be glitches and errors. But with effective safeguards for privacy and against government prying, the benefits would easily outweigh the costs.
Tell me what the 'effective safeguards' are, then we can discuss it.
SO LONG AS IT'S ONE WAY: Ahmadinejad Volunteers to be Launched Into Orbit.
OBAMA AND GUN CONTROL: The conversation that isn't taking place.
WHERE WILL YOU GO if when if America collapses? I lean toward South America. Spanish isn't that difficult to learn, and practically it's already the U.S.'s official second language.
YES, let's create a new federal Department of Cities. Why am I reminded of Asimov's Caves of Steel?
THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT wants to create super WiFi networks across the nation, so powerful and broad in reach that consumers could use them to make calls or surf the Internet without paying a cellphone bill every month.

You can pay in cash, or pay in privacy. I prefer cash.
THE ULTIMATE INSULT OR JUST DESSERTS? Skeleton found in parking lot identified as that of England's King Richard III.

Based on the quality of current political leadership, I lean toward the 'just desserts' theory.
MARK STEYN: Containing Hagel. I will give Hagel some small credit; he is capable of opening his mouth and trying to extract his foot. That's more than some of his former colleagues in the Senate are capable of.
A FEMALE SOLDIER speaks out in favor of women in combat. The contrary view is posted here.
JESSE JACKSON: 'Assault weapons' can shoot down airplanes and blow up railroads. Jesse has been watching too many Hollywood action movies.
PLEASE,not another 'national conversation'. I'm tired of being lectured by a bunch of pompous airheads whose skill sets consist entirely of emoting.
IT'S CALLED gangster government.

GROW UP, LADIES.
It's not sexist;
you're hypersensitive.
MORNING EXAMINER: Conservatives skeptical of Karl Rove's new project:
[S]ome of “the biggest donors in the Republican Party are financing a new group to recruit seasoned candidates and protect Senate incumbents from challenges by far-right conservatives and Tea Party enthusiasts.” This new “Conservative Victory Project” is backed by Karl Rove’s American Crossroads 527 organization....
If Karl Rove (and the Republican establishment) thinks the Tea Party is the problem, then the Republican establishment (and Karl Rove) is in serious trouble.
MATH IS HARD: and it's harder still when the numbers are changing (at risk).
WHY I WON'T BUY A SMART CAR:


THE “I” IN DIA apparently does not stand for Intelligence.
WHY PRESIDENT OBAMA endorses skeet shooting (scroll down): "Skeet are among the gravest threats known to President Obama’s supporters because their existence encourages the civilian purchase of firearms. In addition, rabid skeet have bitten countless small children en route to worship him."
IN CHICAGO, don't call 911 unless you're dead or dying. Otherwise, file a report online.
ARMED GUARD stops school shooter after he opened fire at Atlanta middle school; CNN's Piers Morgan claims armed guard was unable to stop Atlanta school shooting.

Is it beyond Morgan's intellectual capability to understand that the aggressor always gets the first shot? He really needs to quit watching those Hollywood action thrillers.
IS PUTTING YOUR CHILD IN PUBLIC SCHOOL parental malpractice?
