THE WEEK IN PICTURES. My favorite:

TIP: "If you have to have taken Race & Gender Studies 101 to understand why something is racist, it’s not racist."

NOAA: focus on weather, not climate.

REPUBLICAN REP. BOB GOODLATTE, chairman of the House Judiciary Committee: Senate immigration bill repeats mistakes of 1986.

THE HOUSE VOTED 241-175 to pass legislation that would speed up the approval process for the Keystone XL pipeline. It would bypass State Department and EPA objection obstruction, but still requires President Obama's signature.

JEFF JACOBY ON TERRORISM: "In the wake of a bloody atrocity ... the first duty of civilized people – regardless of politics or ideology -- is not to start asking why the evildoers hate us, or how they became so angry. It is to call their actions evil, and denounce them without equivocation."

SCREW UP, MOVE UP: President Obama on Thursday nominated Victoria Nuland, a State Department official involved in the editing of the administration's talking points on Benghazi, to be the next assistant secretary of state for European and Eurasian affairs.

A reward for her role in the Benghazi cover-up.

OBAMACARE: a few more benefits for a lot more money?

THE LEFT'S FIRST AMENDMENT: freedom from (politically incorrect) speech.

UNINTENDED CONSEQUENCES: Some unions now angry about health care overhaul.

Tough. That's what happens when you enthusiastically support ramming a 2,000 plus page bill through Congress in the dark of night. Either lobby to repeal the whole damn bill or suffer alongside the rest of us.

MORNING EXAMINER: Even liberals turn on Holder. But there "is little to no chance that a man as stubborn as Holder would ever offer his resignation or that a president as stubborn as Obama would ever accept. But that only means that the scandals plaguing Obama’s White House are far from over."

INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE: We'll get back to you, Congress, after the election.

PUNCH BACK TWICE AS HARD: Study backs farmer in pollution battle with EPA.

SO YOU THOUGHT THE IRS SCANDAL WAS A 'ROGUE' OPERATION? Think again.

NEWT GINGRICH: Eighty percent solutions & 20% investigations. The 80/20 rule is pretty common in systems engineering, but usually it's interpreted to mean that 20% do the actual work while 80% are merely along for the ride.

SOMEONE AT HOMELAND SECURITY has discovered reality. Stop him before he memos again.

WASHINGTON EXAMINER: Five senators who know how to control federal spending.

I'm asking my Senators to join with these five. I just wish I didn't have to ask.
