SIXTY FIVE WOMEN defend Brett Kavanaugh amid allegations.

About that letter from women in support of Brett Kavanaugh.

Virginia Hume is a Troll Master. President Trump could learn from her....
BARACK OBAMA: Return of the hypocrite.

He doesn't seem to understand that Republicans already hold both houses of Congress....
MILLENNIALS AREN’T TAKING OFFENCE. They’re hunting for victims.
What is the real emotional experience of pouncing on minor infractions of rules right-on activists seem to be making up as they go along, and which only proliferate and grow more exacting the more cravenly the rest of us obey the last ones? ... Nothing short of exhilaration. Crusaders relish locating another paper dragon to slay. In the guise of suffering and woundedness, the overriding emotion in call-out culture is a sensation of triumph.
They're going to be surprised - and hurt (in the physical sense of the word) - when they set upon a real dragon.
NEITHER DO I: I really don't feel like submitting to socialist tyranny.
THE CLIMATISTAS are all spun up to say that Hurricane Florence proves that catastrophic climate change is upon us and that we need to do something right now. Umm ....


The first period is before the 20th century warming began. This is what you call an “inconvenient truth.”

Here are more hurricane facts if you want to peruse them.
BETSY McCAUGHEY: The 'Medicare for All' hoax.
MEET SABO: America's pre-eminent right-wing guerrilla street artist.

Long, but a good read.
SILICON VALLEY’S futile search for Utopia via the ‘perfect algorithm.’

The Progressive Left's Utopia has no unintended consequences; the real world does. Their 'search' is destined for failure.
ANOTHER 'VICTORY' FOR SOCIALISM: Venezuela raises minimum wage 3,000% and lots of workers get fired.
RANDOM THOUGHT on the hurricane Florence coverage. In the interest of full transparency, the following should be inserted at the end of each televised segment:
No journalist or concern warrior has been harmed during the filming of this event. All victims have been selected from a basket of deplorables.
And yes, I am annoyed by all the idiots, government and non-government alike, who believe that they - and only they - know what's best for every single American.

RANDOM THOUGHT: Why not send Barack Obama to Charleston SC and have him tell the seas to 'stop rising'? After all, wasn't that what he promised when he was first inaugurated in 2008?
REMEMBERING


the 17th anniversary of 9/11.
OBAMACARE REQUIREMENT blamed for doctor burnout.

I'm inclined to believe the report - especially for older doctors. My doctor in Virginia was older, and vociferous in his distaste of ObamaCare's electronic health record requirement. I wouldn't be the least bit to surprised to find he's retired. My current doctor here in Georgia is much younger, and more used to computers. She is more comfortable with computerized health records and was more sanguine about them - until this:
There are serious dangers lurking behind the government’s $30 billion electronic health record (EHR) experiment. This omnipresent technology turns doctors into data clerks and shifts attention from patients to paperwork -- while health plans, government agencies, and the health data industry profit. Patients who think the HIPAA ”privacy” rule protects the confidentiality of their medical information will be shocked to discover it makes their medical records an open book [emphasis added].
She was really surprised to find out how little patient 'privacy' her patients actually have. I suspect she'll soon be rethinking her infatuation with electronic health records.

CONFESSION: I am part of the resistance inside the New York Times.

Yes, it's satire. Or sarcasm. Your choice.
EXPERIMENTAL GLIDER reaches altitude record of 76,000 feet. They're going for 90,000 feet.

The pictures are magnificent.
"FIRST MAN" BIOPIC TO REFLECT NEIL ARMSTRONG - except for that one historic moment.

Kurt Schlichter has thoughts.
SMART: I left my heart shoes in San Francisco.
STILL A NARCISSIST: Angry Obama makes stump speeches all about himself.

I'm sure his base will love it, but his base doesn't vote unless he's on the ballot.
I'VE BEEN LAZY THIS WEEKEND, so here is PowerLine's Week in Pictures (Late Edition). I have two favorites this week, one from the Kavanaugh hearing, and one from the gender wars:



As usual, there many more to enjoy.
