LIBERAL NERD WORSHIP: There’s a difference between intelligence and wisdom.

Random thought: liberals may be intelligent (though I don't think that argument is supported by evidence), but conservatives are wise. It's a reality world vs. real world thing.

THOUGHTS FROM THE AMMO LINE: Let's move.

Our parents would be felons in much of America today.

POWERLINE'S WEEK IN PICTURES -- Snarknado edition. My favorite:

[Added snark]: I wonder if the terrorists were told that their 72 virgins are 'male'.

REASON'S Nannies of the Month. Despite it being Reason's #3, I voted for Iowa's banning of the open carry of toy guns.

SPACE-X MUST BE A SUCCESS; the Washington establishment is pushing back.

CALIFORNIA SCHOOL DISTRICT decides learning about diversity is more important than learning geography: "the class is necessary because minority students 'need to feel validated'."

That way they'll feel good about themselves when they go on welfare.

50 YEARS AGO: Ranger takes first close-up photos of the moon. Ranger's crash into the moon was broadcast live; I remember watching that last photo being interrupted at impact.

WHAT’S WITH all the Democratic Senate candidates being caught displaying a condescending, insulting contempt for voters? Because that's who they are ... and their voters are dumb enough to fall for the charade.

TAR & FEATHERS: Mother charged with a felony for letting her 7-year-old son walk to a nearby park alone. And lawsuits? Where are the lawsuits?

Where are these idiots coming from? And why haven't the bureaucrats been charged with felonious idiocy?

HMMM: MSNBC's Ed Schultz opposes an Obama executive order on immigration. Dissention in the ranks?

OUR MOST INCOMPETENT PRESIDENT EVER warns Republicans he may act on his own to address immigration. After doing everything in his power to derail any Congressional action.

YES. NEXT QUESTION? Are tax dollars being channeled through the Environmental Protection Agency to Democratic activists working in the nonprofit sector?

LOOKING BAD: Medicare and Social Security still insolvent.

The bright side is that I'll be gone before they go....

ARE LIBERALS REALLY, REALLY STUPID? Read on.

THE DEMOCRATS are really pushing impeachment. For two reasons: (1) to rev up its base, and (2) if successful for some unknown reason, it would remove the Democrats' biggest albatross since Jimmy Carter.

BEST COMMENT EVER about the Washington Post: "[R]eal life doesn’t visit WaPo very often because it gets an icky rash when it does."

THE ART IN FAILURE.

KINGS DON'T NEED CONGRESSES: Bipartisanship is alive and well, but not in the Obama White House.

FROM THE SCOREKEEPER (#7):

[California Gov. Jerry] Brown reportedly spoke of California’s relationship with Mexico as older than the one his state has with the “government in Washington.” Brown pledged to do whatever he could do to aid the Central American unaccompanied alien children arriving in his state and proclaimed his support for additional shelters for the illegal-immigrant children in California.

So give California to Mexico and improve both countries.

CARS MAY THINK, but will they achieve artificial stupidity? Why should they, when by emulating humans they can achieve real stupidity.
