NOT DISADVANTAGED BLUE-STATERS. Who serves in the military? I noticed, both times I was in Iraq.
WHY THE BRITISH MEDIA IS SO IMPORTANT: they're not nearly as PC as U.S. media. Here are two examples of what you won't find in the U.S. mainstream media.
EVEN THE NSA HAS STANDARDS:


From my email.
”WOMEN — We Treat You Like Dirt, But At Least You Can Kill Your Unborn Children!”

Proof: if any is needed.
THOMAS SOWELL: The trajedy of isolation.
NEWS YOU CAN USE:
San Antonio Spurs Lineup Set to Contest NBA Title Are Mostly Black Men

Democrats Set to Pass Obamacare Are Mostly Liberals
From this PowerLine post.
WOMEN BACK late-term abortion ban by narrow 35-point margin.
A CASE OF asses being the law.
INDIVIDUAL MANDATE: the soft underbelly of ObamaCare.
SEVENTY-SEVEN PERCENT of jobs created in 2013 are part time. So maybe we should consider a part-time Congress and President. Oh, never mind; we already have a part-time President.

THE POOR DEARS ON CAPITOL HILL don’t want to pay for their own ObamaCare. How dare they be treated like little people!
EXPLAINING WHY I PREFER PAPER (WHEN I CAN): Online bank heists just the latest in a long string.
MORNING EXAMINER: Libertarian populists giving establishment Republicans headaches. Good. It's time for the establishment (both sides) to take a hike.
THE DEATH OF POPULISM: Plenty of pleaders for rich and poor, but no politician speaks for the common man.
NEWT GINGRICH: Curing Bureaucratic Health Care.

I'm on board with much of what Gingrich is proposing in this article. America would be far better off if, for example, the money being spent on ObamaCare were instead being spent on basic research in genetics, regenerative medicine, and brain diagnostics as Gingrich suggests.

I'm less on board with his 'big data' initiative which, as the evidence from the NSA debacle suggests, is far more likely to become a political weapon than an analytical tool.
OBAMANOMICS: the soft bigotry of low expectations.
OBAMACARE PREMIUMS lower than expected in Maryland, but they're still going up. Florida, Georgia, and Indiana expect premiums to rise as well.

Surprised? You shouldn't be.
LET THE BUBBLE BURST: Obama faces homeownership plunge. I'm sure that's okay with him; he wants those little people to move into downtown high-rises where he has better control.
YES, PLEASE DO LECTURE US about phony scandals.
OBAMA AS a Comparative President Assessment Specialist.


Making Jimmy Carter look good since 2009.
