Good luck with that.

Comparing Golden Spike To SLS
There’s a doozy of a comment in Friday’s post on the Golden Spike architecture.
I’m busy, but I’ll toss the chum in the water here.
Green Energy
Why people are finally losing hope in it.
Because they’re finally coming to their senses.
More Golden Spike Thoughts
…from Clark Lindsey, with a lot of links.
[Early afternoon update]
Jeff Foust has a story at The Space Review.
The “Tax Cuts For The Rich”
Now that the election is over, they’ve morphed into middle-class “tax cuts.”
These demagogues are despicable.
Leftists
…are boring. Thoughts on Oliver Stone’s turgid new tome.
Michigan Miracle
It’s about to become a right-to-work state. I hope the backlash from the thugs isn’t too bloody, and Lansing doesn’t become Madison.
[Update early afternoon]
I would note though, that the whole state will benefit, not just the lower peninsula. The place is finally starting to undo all the Obama-like damage that Granholm did to it.
That 91% Top Rate
Peter Schiff describes what a fantasy it was. No one paid it.
The Entitlement State
…has begun to eat its own:
The biggest federally funded program (Medicaid) is competing directly with the next-biggest set of programs (education). State politicians are now squeezed between the two most voracious (and unionized) constituencies in American politics: the education blob, and the health care/AARP/provider complex. They will want a way out; otherwise, they’re toast. And the only way out is interposition to Obamacare.
When something can’t go on, at some point, it doesn’t.
They Think You’re Stupid, America
And you just proved them right.
[Update a few minutes later]
This seems related, somehow: Why I’m not a Republican. We have one party that thinks we’re stupid, and one that is stupid itself.
