YUVAL LEVIN on a long October. Read it all.
THIRTEEN NUTRITION LIES that made the world sick and fat. Bank on it: if it's politically correct, it's almost certainly wrong.
WHOM SHOULD YOU TRUST? Warren Buffett or Harold Hamm? It's not always -- or even usually -- the biggies.

RELATED: Looking for a different sort of president.
DEMOCRATS may be forced to admit ObamaCare is a tax increase.
KRAUTHAMMER takes on ObamaCare. It all boils down to this: "The core conceit of central planners is that the participants in the marketplace are too stupid to act in their own interest."
GOVERNMENT ATTEMPTS TO BAN THE WORD GOVERNMENT: The Defense responds. Read the whole thing; it's hilarious.
IT'S ALL THE REPUBLICANS' FAULT: Want some cheese with that whine?
CHARLES KRAUTHAMMER on the three pillars of ObamaCare: mendacity, paternalism, and subterfuge.
WHAT REALLY HAPPENS to people whose insurance is 'canceled' because of ObamaCare. They get 'better' insurance they don't want at a price they can't afford to pay. Which is the real answer as opposed to TPM's 'reality' answer.
SEEN ON THE INTERWEBS:


"We supply patriots not the government." Someone gets it....
A NEW THEORY OF LIBERALISM: They're addicts. On the bright side, they can no longer use the insanity defense....
NEW YORK TIMES: Your Insurance Policy Was Cancelled for Your Own Good. Gee, thanks....
NEXT UP: the ObamaCar.

And by the way, your current car does not meet ObamaCar standards. We are recalling all existing noncompliant cars (I know we said that if you liked your current car, you could keep it, but that just hasn't worked out. Sorry). Well, you wouldn't be allowed to drive it after this month anyway. If you don't buy an ObamaCar by March 31, 2014, the IRS will levy a fine on you. If you are unable to pay this fine, they will seize enough of your property to cover the fine. And by the way, this is just a cardboard mockup - the real ObamaCars won't be available to buy until 2015 (if things go well). On the other hand, if you were POOR, or an OPPRESSED MINORITY, you could have one of these babies, with all the mandatory "options", FOR FREE! Too bad, you are the wrong race. You might check the competition. Oh that's right, none of them seem to still be in business. We are anxious to see the first one of these completed at Government Motors in the People's City of Detroit, but we seem to be having some labor issues there. Something about their health insurance, I think.
But you needn't feel bad that your shiny new ObamaCar doesn't exist, since there's no coal to fuel the power plants that make the electricity to run it.
MALLARD FILLMORE on the mainstream media.
WINTER IS COMING: Are you ready?
