THE KEY TO DISASTER SURVIVAL? Friends and neighbors.
Pretty obvious when you stop to think about it. Also pretty obvious (and widely unsaid) is that the government does its level best to prevent you from helping yourself and your neighbors. There are a lot fewer jobs for 'first responders' when citizens realize that they can take care of themselves just fine,thank-you-very-much.

LIBERALS ARE name calling goons posing as intellectuals. It would be more accurate to leave off 'posing as intellectuals'.

THIS IS WHAT GOVERNMENT TRANSIT LOOKS LIKE. Metro: Track Defect Deleted From Inspection Report.
Now we know what the meaning of 'is' is, to recall to another famous Clintonion fudge: 'erroneously deleted' is PC-speak for 'covered up'. For those of us old enough to remember Richard Nixon (he was impeached), then administration spokesman Ron Ziegler was once quoted as saying "This is the operative statement. The others are inoperative." Meaning, of course, that the previous statements were lies.
When it comes to government pronouncements, caveat emptor. Don't trust, verify.
A technician “erroneously” deleted information....The second part of Instapundit's lede "but government healthcare will be awesome!" reminds me that we already know how 'awesome' government healthcare will be.

NATIONAL LABOR RELATIONS BOARD declares war on franchises. It's nothing more than a ploy to force unions on franchise owners.
Remember the $15 minimum wage? Unions demanded it, Los Angeles adopted it, and now unions are before the city council asking to be exempt from the minimum wage requirement. If permitted, then they can go to companies and say essentially 'if you permit your company to be unionized, then you won't have to pay the minimum wage'. Same ploy here.

There’s always a chance a federal court ... [will see through the NLRB ruling}, ... but in the meantime, if you were thinking about opening a franchise operation, wouldn’t a ruling like this give you second thoughts? The uncertainty generated by this ruling will almost certainly have a negative impact on the franchise industry, thus placing another drag on an already sluggish economy.But with the Obama administration, dragging the economy to a halt is the point.

HURRICANE KATRINA: What the media missed. News reports are 'the first draft of history', and as such, are almost always wrong. Here's a much more sober assessment.

MAKE OF IT WHAT YOU WILL: Assessing Carly Fiorina's time as HP chief.
She should clearly be in the next debate. But will she? I suggest that if not, CNN will have hell to pay.
