NOT THAT IT MATTERS, but the Democrats held a presidential debate last Saturday. All three candidates lost.
FALLING DOWN DUMB: Blind girl denied use of cane in school because it's a tripping hazard. Just not for her.
RANDOM THOUGHT: It used to be that I thought Liberalism was all about control; now I'm leaning to thinking it's all about other people's money. (Or most likely both: controlling other people's money.)
SEATTLE: Fight the evil Koch Brothers with your neighbor's money!
AND NOW PRINCETON: "How long will it be before these various, misguided students simply demand the erasure of all of United States history so that nobody’s no snowflake's special feelings are hurt?"
SURPRISE! "Smart" guns aren't. They're an easy way to get killed.
THE PINK GUARDS: The rise of the teacup totalitarian.

Time to kick ass and take names....
REASSURING: Who are we letting out of prison?

If we must let them out, do it in Syria and let them ply their 'trade' there.
SO LET'S BLOCK SOMALI REFUGEES TOO: More Somali-Americans have traveled to join ISIS and Al-Shabab than any other ethnic minority.
QUENTIN TARANTINO: I demand to be protected by the very police I call murderers.
YA THINK? A lot of Americans think that Islam is at odds with their values.


Surprise, surprise....
PROGRESSIVE LOGIC: When we argue for the annihilation of terrorists, the terrorists win.
TOWERING ARROGANCE AND STAGGERING INCOMPETENCE: Our Bitter And Graceless President.

Peter Wehner is being kind.
MICROMANSIONS: Tiny, energy-efficient, homes are bucking the trend toward bigger and bigger houses.

Read and weep. I'm a Life Senior Member of the IEEE, and I'm sorry to say that the Institute has become just another social justice/environmentalism flack.
NASA CHIEF CHARLES BOLDEN: Government climate scientists won't be intimidated. But they might will be embarrassed.
MIKE ADAMS compares journalists to used car salesmen ... and journalists lose.
DISPATCHES from the education apocalypse. Grab your popcorn and enjoy.
THE ANSWER IS 'YES': "They can’t be this dumb, can they?"
OVERHAULING THE VA is the only chance to save it.
More than 200,000 U.S. veterans have died waiting for health care through the Veterans Administration (VA), according to new government documents.

Naturally, the federal government has decided to reward the people responsible. This month, a House committee revealed that the Department of Veterans Affairs handed out $142 million in bonuses in 2014, the same year the public learned that veterans on VA waiting lists had died.
Why is it so hard to understand that massive bureaucracies are (at best) venal, craven, and incompetent?
WHY NOT?


I understand the Lincoln bedroom is available....
