JIMMY CARTER calls President Obama incompetent. Carter should know....

TECH FOCUS: A History of the Magnetic Compass.

DO INTROVERTS make good Presidents? Yes. Liars don't.

REP. TREY GOWDY (R-SC) Benghazi isn't going away. Despite the media's assistance.

WELL, THAT'S AWKWARD: A white supremacist who made headlines worldwide for plotting to take over a town in North Dakota received the results of a DNA test -- and the results say he's 14% black.

WASHINGTON POST: Navy tests drone’s ability to integrate with aircraft carrier environment.

The drone also completed arrested landings and catapult landings, and participated in flight deck handling drills.

Hmm. I've made arrested landings and catapult launches from a Navy carrier, but never a catapult landing. What did I miss?

Where are those legions of editor-type fact-checker people that the media claim to have to ensure accuracy?

HERE WE GO AGAIN: Report on climate change depicts a planet in peril.

IF YOU LIKE more competition between insurers, you can't have it. I recall a week or two ago, when I browsed HealthCare.gov, there was only one PPO available in my county. I tried to check again before posting, but ... guess what? ... HealthCare.gov is down.

NEW YORK TIMES: Talk of Penalty Is Missing in Ads for Health Care. My only surprise is that the NYT is mentioning it.

HERE WE GO AGAIN: Democrats prepare minimum wage hike bill.

Same old, same old. And the 'feel-gooders' will probably win again while the poor will take it in the shorts ... again.

DO TELL: ObamaCare is junk insurance.

CLINTON TO OBAMA: Keep ObamaCare promise, let Americans 'keep what they got'.

Wow. The Democrats are tripping all over themselves running away from ObamaCare.

REPUBLICANS ON THE OFFENSE: "This Is What Betrayal Looks Like".

DEBBIE WASSERMAN-SCHULTZ: I think Democrats will run on ObamaCare next year. Oh, I hope so. I certainly do hope so.

Take note of the latest Democrat talking point linguistic change: 'cancellation notices' are now 'transition notices'.

POWERLINE'S Steven Hayward on 'progressive linguistics'.

Follow his link (here) for other linguistic changes the 'you didn't build that' brigade is trying to launch.

And don't forget the comments for a quick laugh.

HOW BAD IS IT? Hope is the only remaining option. Follow the link provided in Instapundit's post.

OBAMACARE: Bending the approval curve down.

Data from Rasmussen's Obama Approval Index.

OBAMACARE: "like peeling an onion of fail!"

MATH JOKE.

DEMOCRAT CHALLENGER invites Mitch McConnell to go shooting with her.

The Republicans made a tactical error in denigrating Lundergan Grimes lack of eye & ear protection. There are times when snark is acceptable, and even desirable, but this isn't one. Sure, safety precautions are advisable at the gun range (ten weapons firing nearly simultaneously at close range is loud) but I doubt there are very many hunters who wear eye/ear protection when out putting dinner on the table. And I doubt very much that there are very many who are going to be religious about eye/ear protection when defending themselves against an armed assailant.

Unforced error.
