THE FIELD IS THINNING: Huntsman to drop out of GOP primary race. I wish he'd enter the Democratic primaries challenging Obama. He'd be an excellent Democratic candidate.
BILL O'REILLY: The 'spin stops here' one brochure at a time.
TECHNOLOGY'S END, and technology's promise. Watch the video here.
LOST IN THE PRAYERS OF ATHEISTS: Tebow's on God's side, not vice versa.
PRIVATE EQUITY EXPLAINED.
WHY SHOULD Obama recognize it? He's probably never seen one before.
MORE GOVERNMENT STUPID: DC Law May Relocate Rehabilitated Rat Families To Virginia.
PREDICTION: grilled cheese sandwich to cause constitutional crisis.
THERE'S STUPID, REALLY STUPID, AND THEN THERE'S GOVERNMENT STUPID: Oil companies fined for not using a fuel that doesn't exist.
OBAMA'S ENDLESS POWER TO APPOINT may be coming to a screeching halt.
I GOT MINE; now to "spend more time with my family."
TAILHOOK PROBLEMS with the carrier-based version of the F-35?
ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW about progressivism.
BEDBUGS: "They sound like politicians."

HMM: Italian Cruise Ship Reported Torpedoed By Iranian Submarine.

Linked from the PJ Tatler.
DOUBLE JEOPARDY.
THE NEW YORK TIMES: "Are We Biased Enough?" Not for their Progressive readers; they're too nuanced and well-versed in 'critical thinking skills' to be able to read a simple factual statement without help.
DARPA PLANS to repurpose retired geosynchronous satellites. No doubt a useful but challenging task. What surprises me, though, is that there are roughly 1,300 satellites in geosynchronous orbit; that works out to about 100 miles (or 0.3 angular degrees) between satellites if they were uniformly distributed in orbit (and they're not).

It's getting crowded up there.
NO BIAS HERE; MOVE ALONG: Supreme Court Recognizes Religious Exception to Job Discrimination Laws. A more honest headline would read "Supreme Court Recognizes Limits on Government Interference With Religious Freedom."
IS THERE AN OBAMA DERANGEMENT SYNDROME? Yes. but it's still on the Left, directed at the Right. Here's an astute observation:
It’s about feelings and self-identity for Progressives. They’re like monkeys. They’ve got enough primate brain to form tribes, but they just don’t use the higher faculties. So it’s no surprise that flinging crap is their modus operandi.
It's from the comments at another website.
