PAYBACK TIME: Hit the IRS where it hurts -- in their budget.

MCCONNELL TO REID: You, Sir, are about to become the Worst.Senate.Leader.Ever. About to become? Dude, that ship sailed six years ago.

WALMART scraps D.C. store plans. As they should. If I owned WalMart, I'd simply walk away, but it would be 'just desserts' for WalMart to build its stores just 1 foot outside the District line in Maryland, and just across the Potomac in Virginia.

And hire only [D.C.] nonresidents.

I recall an old story of an irate voter sending his Congresscritter a telegram: "Go to Hell. Strong letter follows." That's a tradition that needs to be reinvented.

NEW PURITANS: California regulators look to curb beach bonfires, citing climate change. Fun is strictly forbidden unless specifically authorized by regulators.

HEH: Florida accidentally bans all computers and smartphones.

A really wise man (conservative, naturally) once said "You can never do just one thing." So it's probably a good idea to think carefully about what you're planning before you, you know, attempt it.

DEMOCRATS: "busy pouting and drawing crayon mustaches on [their] photo[s] of Newt Gingrich."

OBAMACARE IS MUCH EASIER TO IMPLEMENT when the Government ignores its own laws. So ... can I just ignore the individual mandate?

KILL THE IMMIGRATION BILL: "[I]t would be better if Republicans won more Hispanic voters than they have in the past—but it’s most important that the party perform better among working-class and younger voters concerned about economic opportunity and upward mobility. Passing this unworkable, ramshackle bill is counterproductive or irrelevant to that task."

JUST IGNORE THEM: New York school drops Michelle Obama lunch plan after kids complain they're starving. I'm seeing more and more cases where Americans are just ignoring the Progressives' recommended mandated solutions for America's ills.

Civil disobedience on a massive scale....

WELL, YES: "The country's in the very best of hands." It is if you want to guarantee that the progressives never have another chance to run the country.

WILL DOCTORS PROMOTE OBAMACARE? The head of the AMA thinks so. I'm not so sure. I doubt my doctors will; and the AMA doesn't represent all -- or even most, as best I can tell -- medical professionals.

I suspect those who want to tell you how to live will; those who want to treat your illnesses, won't.

REPEAL THE 16TH AMENDMENT and abolish the IRS: "[T]he ground for repeal is becoming more fertile with every new twist in the current IRS scandal. As Rep. Mike Kelly, R-Pa., told Breitbart News, 'the information that the IRS has on file on people goes pretty deep into personal lives. It is being leaked out and given to people for very specific political reasons. I think this is something that should be the most chilling thing for Americans to understand.' That is the kind of power no federal agency should have."

THE FUTURE OF FLIGHT will be 3-D Printed Planes.

ON VACATION here in Nova Scotia, I've seen signs in the grocery stores indicating that when you buy fish, it'll be tagged with the name of the fisherman who caught it. As long as it doesn't come with an affidavit by some government functionary attesting that it died happy....

OBAMACARE'S 'dirty dozen' implementation failures. But other than that, everything's going swimmingly.

"THE CONSEQUENCES of too much sun, it’s becoming clear, are likely to be less serious than the chances of not enough. Too much sun gives you wrinkles and an elevated chance of skin cancer — but skin cancer is easy to diagnose and usually easy to treat if it’s caught early. Too little sun increases your risk of ovarian, colon and other cancers that are much harder to spot, and often more serious."

Real science, not progressive pseudo-science.

MORNING EXAMINER: Immigration reform is dead and Obamacare implementation killed it. Can you ask for better news?

ASSOCIATED PRESS: Temporary jobs becoming permanent. No shit, Sherlock. Now explain to me why you're surprised.

UPDATE & BUMP: America's second-largest employer is a temp agency.

THE MISSILE DEFENSE AGENCY'S REPUTATION continues to suffer.

WELCOME TO THE CLUB: Democrats “Nervous,” “Concerned” About “Complex,” Confusing, “Train Wreck” ObamaCare.
