GREATEST AD EVER: I think I'll have a cheeseburger.

American ingenuity at its best....

WHEN ENGINEERS HAVE NOTHING BETTER TO DO:

TEENAGE EMPLOYMENT at its best point since the recession of 2008-2011. But it's still above 17%. I'm sure it'll make teens happy to know they're not an unemployed as they used to be....

NOT FLAT, NEGATIVE: The liberal learning curve is flat. I read the Google report some months back. It is an excellent review of the real science, and environmentalist liberals would be well-advised to read it and pay attention.

BUYING VOTES? Clinton Family Foundation donated $100K to NYT charity the same year the newspaper endorsed Hillary for President.

The Clintons are well versed in quid pro quo.

PLANET UNKNOWN: our first closeup of the last remaining (former) planet in the solar system.

AMERICAN EXCEPTIONALISM derives from outperforming rivals, not apologizing to them.

PROGRESSIVE WORLD: age(s) to be an adult.

14 - have an abortion
16 - vote (proposed in several places)
18 - vote; join the military; marry; sign contracts; buy guns; get tattoos.
21 - buy cigarettes (including e-cigarettes); consume marijuana
26 - buy health insurance

We're enroute to the nanny-state nirvana of perpetual childhood.

A NOVEL TO BE: The Progressive's Progress.

JONI ERNST TO HILLARY: “[I]t’s not enough to just be a woman.”

INSTAPUNDIT on 'campus crusaders':

They’re awful, nasty people using the excuse of “social justice” to justify indulging base desires of power and control. Awful, nasty, horrible people who should be recognized for what they are, denounced for what they are, and shamed for what they are. Because what they are is evil.

Evil is as evil does.

DAY BY DAY: Altitude adjustment.

SO WHAT'S CHANGED? Five years ago today on Shadow's World.

NEW YORK TIMES shows its 'gotcha' colors -- and gets soundly mocked.

Punch back twice as hard.

WHAT MAKES A PROGRESSIVE? The ability to turn on a dime. Insanity helps....

HEH: A line separating the smart from the not-so-smart.

Update: read the comments.

OH, GROW UP: Calling “Caitlyn” Jenner a “he” is a microaggression. Elizabeth Price Foley's response is priceless, and the comments are worthy of an extra bowl of popcorn.

You know, progressives act much like my kids did when they were learning to talk. Every time they learned a new word, they had to mouth it over and over and over again until I had to tell them to knock it off. I think it's time to tell them to 'knock it off and grow up'. Progressives, like children, should be seen and not heard.

THE SCOREKEEPER is on a roll this week: here, here, here, here, here, and (dear God, no) here.

AN EXCELLENT EXPLANATION of why I canceled my subscription to the Washington Post.

BREAKING: Obama wins Triple Crown.

Dan Pfeiffer @danpfeiffer
Another accomplishment -- Obama first President to have a
Triple Crown winner since Carter

Are these people completely nuts?
