ON IRAN AND ENTITLEMENTS, Obama kicks the can down the road. No, over the precipice.
DARPA’S “CHEETAH” sets land speed record.



I don't think I'd want it chasing me ....
NO, NO, IT WAS BUSH'S FAULT! Moon Tied To Crash Of The Titanic.
NEWT GINGRICH: "America has a destiny in space."
I want to restate: America has a destiny in space. That’s who we are. We are not backing off John F. Kennedy’s challenges, and we are not going to let the Chinese dominate the future in space.
That's why I like Gingrich -- boldness and vision.
STIMULUS FAIL: what happens when you look only at the benefits side of the equation. Another good reason why each house of Congress needs a few good systems engineers.
THE CHEVY VOLT is a failure, so it must be the Republicans' fault.

Talking Points Memo: the spin starts here.
WIND POWER: subsidizing companies to not produce subsidized energy. Just another benefit of crony capitalism from the White House.
MICHELLE MALKIN: The War on Conservative Women.
CAPITALISM IS GREAT. It's the only system with a moral core because it's based on freedom, not force.

U.S. AIR FORCE SPACE PLANE marks one year in orbit.
PAUL KRUGMAN: States of Depression. Is there ever a time in the liberal mind not to increase taxes and government employment?
I AM ANDREW BREITBART. As am I.
VICTOR DAVIS HANSON: The Gaseous Policies of Barack Obama. Here are two delicious excerpts.
Is the driving force [to keep gas prices high] then some philosophical desire to restrict crass American materialism in order to return to a preferable pre-carbon dioxide Golden Age past? And if so, are the president’s sudden complaints about high gas prices and considerations to draw again from the strategic petroleum reserve entirely cynical, in the sense that once reelected, he and Secretary Chu will accelerate their restrictionist policies in hopes of keeping gas prices even higher?
And
When the world economy began rebounding, demand picked up, prices spiked, and now Obama is in campaign mode: suddenly high gas prices are bad and he claims not that he wants his House-approved cap-and-trade bill pushed through his Democratically controlled Senate, but rather that all along he has encouraged private enterprise to drill while successfully persuading us to cut back our consumption (as if we did so because of the impressive oratory of Barack Obama rather than because he had managed to ensure millions of Americans now had no jobs to drive to work to).
There's much, much more. Read it all.
ONLY 'PROGRESSIVE' SCIENCE is real science.

LONG BEFORE I got to the end of this piece, I was thinking of Hitler's 'Aryan supremacy'.
SANDRA FLUKE: Rush’s apology “changes nothing”. That's right; she's still a twit.
SANTORUM'S 'SNUB' was no gaffe. Inelegant, yes; wrong, no. The idea that everyone needs a college degree, if taken seriously, will have the effect of making a college degree the de facto equivalent of a high-school degree back when I graduated from high school.
OBAMA TO DEMOCRATS: I've got mine; you're on your own.
THE OBAMA ENERGY POLICY: Clearing The Roads For Fatcats!
RANDOM THOUGHTS from the retirement lane: The Democrat Party should change their name to the Unicorn Party instead of the Jackass Party as I've previously suggested. After all, the unicorn is nothing more than an imaginary jackass.
