FEDS: America Should Adopt ‘Plant-Based’ Diet.


So eat more bacon.

It’s modestly surprising how ignorant liberals are of the food chain; pork, beef, venison. mutton – hell, even fish – are ‘plant-based’ foods.

The cartoon, by the way, can be found here.
IMPRIMIS: Jason L. Riley on race relations and law enforcement.
GLENN HARLAN REYNOLDS: Gov. Scott Walker may bring reality back to an Ivy League-suffocated government.
IT’S OFFICIAL: Americans should drink more coffee. I drink between 8-12 cups a day, so I’m doing my part to make up for all you slaggards out there....
ELECTRIC INDUSTRY warns of power shortages with EPA power-plant rule. I don’t have any problem at all with power shortages in blue states provided the red states refuse to supply cross-border power to the blues.

NOTE TO EPA: Ideological fervor Hot air is not an alternative source of energy.
FROM MY EMAIL: Participating in a gun buy-back program because you think that criminals have too many guns is like having yourself castrated because you think your neighbors have too many kids.
YOU’VE GOT OBAMACARE. But do you have health care?
SEAFOOD FRAUD: Is it really cod you’re eating?
AIR FORCE considering A-10 replacement for future close air support. I’m certainly no aircraft expert, but I’d think seriously about upgrading the A-10 instead of replacing it.
GET COVERED, AMERICA:


Oops, wrong picture....

Each [Gore, Kerry] lost when they struck people as having no beliefs other than that they deserved to be president. And right now, Hillary Clinton looks a lot more like this kind of candidate....
Good.
CALIFORNIA’S NO DRONE ZONES. I prefer the obvious solution – redefine drones flying below 400 feet as clay pigeons and let the problem take care of itself.
ROOTING OUT MALWARE with a side-channel chip defense system. Interesting technique. Too bad it won’t work on personal computers....

NET NEUTRALITY: “If you like your internet, you can keep your internet.”


THANKS APPLE: Pilot and wife use iPads to navigate and safely land plane after total electrical failure leaves them flying blind.
MAJOR QUESTIONS in the net neutrality debate. The wise thing to to keep government regulation far, far away from the internet.
SHOULD EMPLOYERS give paid time off for volunteering? No. Absolutely not. Keep the ‘social justice’ movement out of the workplace. And out of the IEEE as well: it’s a professional organization, not a social justice one.
IF YOU LIKE HBO’S GIRLS, you might be an overeducated overcredentialed insular dumbass.
