DR. BENJAMIN CARSON’S speech at the National Prayer Breakfast:

AMERICAN HERO: Massive public memorial in Dallas for slain Navy SEAL Chris Kyle. "Nearly 7,000 people ... attended the service at Cowboys Stadium."

MAYBE LIBERALS should think of the children before they go off half-cocked....

BAN REALITY SHOWS: "If it saves only one child person, it'll be worth it."

MICHAEL BARONE: Congressional Hearings Show Obama Treading Dangerous Global Path.

ADDING INSULT TO INJURY: Hurricane Sandy victims facing new tax hit after superstorm.

MORE WILL ROGERS: About growing older...

Eventually you will reach a point when you stop lying about your age and start bragging about it.

The older we get, the fewer things seem worth waiting in line for.

Some people try to turn back their odometers. Not me; I want people to know 'why' I look this way. I've traveled a long way, and some of the roads weren't paved.

When you are dissatisfied and would like to go back to youth, think of Algebra.

You know you are getting old when everything either dries up or leaks.

I don't know how I got over the hill without getting to the top.

One of the many things no one tells you about aging is that it's such a nice change from being young.

One must wait until evening to see how splendid the day has been.

Being young is beautiful, but being old is comfortable.

Long ago, when men cursed and beat the ground with sticks, it was called witchcraft. Today it's called golf.

If you don't learn to laugh at trouble, you won't have anything to laugh at when you're old.

From my email.

"CALIFORNIA'S GOVERNING CLASS, along with urban planners and some developers, want to push people into city apartments near rail and bus lines. But that's not what most people want."

Most people, I suspect, view a rental apartment in an urban high-rise as a (hopefully brief) stop along the way to a single-family home in the 'burbs.

OBAMA PREPARES TO SCREW HIS BASE: "Young people re-elected the president. Now they get to pay disproportionately for ObamaCare."

Well, you voted for him, didn't you? Those of us who are older, wiser, and more experienced, knew better. Quit whining. Sit down, shut up, learn from your experience and don't be such damned fools the next time.

"LEFTISM REQUIRES this illegitimate use of force — this use of violence — because free individuals simply will not do what leftists, in their wisdom, have decided is right and good.”

DEREK HUNTER: Sometimes it is the messenger.

FOX NEWS SUNDAY with constitutional scholar Nancy Pelosi:

Wow this dizzy bimbo is incoherent. So gun owners have a first amendment right to have a gun in their workplace for hunting?

How many more of her nitwiticisms never make the news?

This was one of the kinder comments.

SPEAKING TRUTH TO POWER is good only when Republicans are in office.

NOW WE KNOW: The $1.2 trillion in tax cuts the Democrats are so proud of are mostly fiction. Using the Democrats' logic I just saved $4.40, or 0.73% of my annual budget, by not going out and buying my usual croissant and cup of coffee this morning.

THE FIRST-RATE IDIOTS behind the new second-rate power. Sequestration's not even pocket change given the size of the federal budget. The tragedy, of course, is that in the sequestration the budget items that should be cut are not the ones that will be cut.

MEDIA CONTROL and the First Amendment. An interesting comparison with gun control and the Second Amendment.

IT'S THE CULTURE, STUPID!

DOUBLE THE HOPE™, double the Change™.
