THE WASHINGTON TIMES: The vanity of public transit. You're worse off, but we feel really, really good about it.

RARE PRAISE: from Newt Gingrich.

REP. DUNCAN HUNTER (R-CA) TELLS NAVY: Skip the tobacco ban, focus on budget and ships.

We want a fighting military, not a politically correct one.

STEALTH TECHNOLOGY: Boeing's Bird of Prey.

ONLY A 'D'? ObamaCare's score of 67% merits a 'D'.

The Weekly Standard is being very generous.

THE IRS SCANDAL: Day 323, and more bad news for the Obama administration. Click through the links for details.

A PERFECT EXAMPLE of liberal projection:

Climate change deniers are as committed. Their denial fits perfectly with their support for free market economics, opposition to state intervention and hatred of all those latte-slurping, quinoa-munching liberals, with their arrogant manners and dainty hybrid cars, who presume to tell honest men and women how to live. If they admitted they were wrong on climate change, they might have to admit that they were wrong on everything else and their whole political identity would unravel.

He describes himself perfectly, attributing his faults to his opponents.

And his climate-change soufflé collapsed as well....

AIR FORCE faces shortage of engineers. It's true. I've worked with a number of very good AF civilian engineers in the past, but they don't tend to stay because Civil Service regulations make life in an industry cube farm seem positively idyllic.

THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION: still just smoke and mirrors.

[N]o attempt will made to change policy, but spend money instead on deception operations, in order to mask reality and conduct business as usual under another name. Nothing changes except the make-up. While this will be as effective as renaming Titanic the Love Boat in an effort to keep things afloat, the probable fact is that the president is unprepared to change. It will be denial to the bitter end.

Sleep well.

POWERLINE: Code Red for team Franken.

Sen. Al Franken (D-MN) should be sharpening his skills to resume touring as a performer in a third-tier comedy club. Oh, wait ... he already is.

THE SCOREKEEPER'S comment of the day (#6): "Come on. If you cannot run something as simple as a bank, how can we expect you to run a bike stand?"

THERE'S SOMETHING VERY WRONG WITH THIS: "The family of Justina Pelletier, the 15-year-old girl at the center of a battle spanning two states and two prestigious hospitals, is devastated but defiant after a Massachusetts judge gave permanent custody of the girl to the state's Department of Children and Families."

FOX NEWS' DR. KEITH ABLOW is outraged. And rightfully so.

POWERLINE'S WEEK IN PICTURES, spring climate change edition. But my favorite isn't about climate change:

MILLENNIALS, the Social Security sucker generation. You've got it bad, but your children will be much worse off.

And don't blame me, I've been trying to fix it for years.

SCREW YOU, MICKEY KAUS: I want my health insurance back.

I'VE WONDERED ABOUT THAT, TOO.

INSTANT KARMA: How many times I've wished for this.

SAY 'GOOD RIDDANCE' TO COMMON CORE: Fourth-grade Common Core reading worksheet features story about adultery.

The math part of Common Core is horrible, and this (the English part) is obscene.

US AIR FORCE'S secretive X-37B space plane sets new orbital endurance record.

REGULATION.

WOULDN'T IT BE just as easy to rename Asians? The way you did blacks?

SO YOU REALLY WANT these bumbling idiots in charge of your healthcare? For all you liberals out there in La-La Land, remember this: doctors, nurses, and medical technology don't coexist with rainbows and unicorns. Lawyers do. And lawyers don't fix broken bones.
