POWERLINE"S WEEK IN PICTURES, media overdrive edition. My favorite:

THE JOLLY HOLIDAYS CAROLING COMPANY: 'Twelve Days of ObamaCare'.

IN LUNACY, VERITAS.

TOM BLUMER: Nobody's This Stupid and Incompetent. I wish; I'm afraid we've only seen the beginning.

NEVER FORGET: December 7, 1941.

DOES A CHIMPANZEE deserve to be called a ‘person'? I should think a more relevant question to be addressed by the "Personhood Beyond the Human" conference should be "Does a progressive deserve to be called a 'person'?"

72 YEARS LATER: Remembering Pearl Harbor.

"We'll (just barely) let you look, but don't touch anything, don't step off the path, and whatever else you do, don't look behind the curtain!"

FIGURES DON'T LIE: There is no poverty in America. Unless, of course, a very large percentage of that $1 trillion is siphoned off by our ruling controlling class. Which it is.

IF IT’S WRONG TO USE slavery as a metaphor, what about all those SEIU types going on about “slave wages?”

GO TO MARS, get hit by a comet.

A SHORT COURSE on driving in Russia.



Only for those with nerves of steel and loaded up on vodka.

GOOD LUCK WITH THAT: Young Americans Expect Obamacare to Be Repealed. Nonetheless, I hope they're right.

LUNA -- the first real Death Star?

HOW MANY PEOPLE “enrolled” in ObamaCare have paid their first month of premiums?

Obama voter: "Hey, I signed up. I have to pay, too?"
