THE SCOREKEEPER: Liberal whine of the day.

Liberal finally discovers the meaning of insurance only to find that ObamaCare destroyed it.
THE SEXISM that propels Carly Fiorina’s candidacy. Washington Post columnist Ruth Marcus writes:
I would love to see a female president, of either party, and I expect I will — if not in 2016, then in an election to come. But the female president I would love to see is one who is fully qualified to be president — qualified by dint of experience, not of chromosomes. Carly Fiorina is not that woman.
As opposed to Hillary Clinton's many and varied (non)accomplishments? Please explain to me how a woman who rose from a secretary in a small law office to CEO of a major technology company is less accomplished than Hillary Clinton.
I would have serious qualms about any candidate who seeks the presidency without government experience, no matter how much value he or she produced for shareholders. Business demands different skills than politics....
And your proof is ... where?
[T]he presidency isn’t the place for on-the-job training.
Marcus is at least right on this point; and I offer Barack Obama as proof. And Obama had government experience....

I quit subscribing to the Washington Post a year or so ago because, well, Ruth Marcus' columns (among others) offend me.

[ADDED] NOEMIE EMERY RESPONDS: Hillary's crisis of competence.
LET THE PROTESTS BEGIN: not even 24 hours has passed.

If I were in charge of the police department, I'd simply back off and let the protestors foul their own nest. If you're not welcome, why go?
POWERLINE'S Week in Pictures (Tactical Edition) is up. My favorite:


But 'Plan B' is pretty good as well....
CLEVELAND POLICE OFFICER found not guilty in deadly 2012 shooting; Department of 'Justice' to review. The verdict was correct, just not politically correct.
DOES OBAMACARE make insurance cost too much? No. Liberals do. By larding it with unnecessary, unneeded, and unwanted regulation.

ObamaCare has been so fattened with progressive lard that the poor 'insured' is payig so much for insurance that there's no money left for care.
ANOTHER PROMISE BROKEN: Emergency room visits up under Obamacare.

Unexpectedly (as predicted).
