CEILING FANS? CEILING FANS!? After attacking light bulbs and wood stoves, the Obama administration is trying to regulate our ceiling fans.

What? Do I have to install a thermostat to turn off my ceiling fans when the temperature is within a DOE-approved range?

SURPRISE: higher wages don't grow on trees.

ANOTHER REASON why you should never, ever pay attention to unsolicited 'health' tips. Aside from the fact that they're always wrong, they're incredibly stupid.

HEROISM is the last 50 yards.

THE FORCE IS STRONG IN THAT ONE: Attempts to strike down Prof. Mike Adams have only made him more powerful.

WESLEY PRUDEN: An ususual field crowds the Republican pool:

There’s two Cuban-Americans who speak fluent Spanish, a Baptist preacher who speaks fluent old-time values, a black man and a white woman, and “a big mule” from the Republican establishment with more than his big toe in the water. There’s more to come, including an Indian-American governor. They all appear to be comfortable in their “gender,” and if Bruce Jenner, a newly discovered transgender conservative, Republican and Christian can be persuaded to run the party would have left no stone unturned.

Contrast that with the "dead white old folks home" contenders on the Left.

Added: Well, the Left does have a potential "Native American" backstage....

THE MORAL CODE of the progressive milieu: It has to be legal because I want it to be.

THE DIFFERENCE between bullying and free speech: if a conservative does it, it's bullying; if a progressive does the same, it's free speech.

DON'T MESS WITH TEXAS: Two heavily armed jihadis were dispatched by one Texas cop with a pistol.

Reading this, I was reminded of this very old Texas Ranger (the state law enforcement agency; not the baseball team) joke:

After several days of rioting in a small town in west Texas, the Mayor telegraphed the Governor asking that a company of Texas Rangers be sent to quell the riot. The next morning a single Ranger stepped off the daily train. Upset, the Mayor demanded to know where the rest of the company of Rangers were. To which the Ranger replied, "Well, you told us there was only one riot."

One riot, one Ranger. The finest of Texas tradition.

OOPS! Well, so much for all that global warming hysteria.

A LESSON about government oversight -- and government overseers.

OH. MY. GOD. A reminder of what we have to look forward to....
