The media covered up JFK’s predatory sexual behavior and other things, like his mafia ties, while he was in office. Looks like, toward the end of his final term, they’ve doing the same thing with Barack Obama. As Glenn often says, if you want a media that will be a watchdog, instead of a lapdog over the White House, elect a Republican.

Cultural Imperialism
Apropos of this thread, stop telling me I’m violent, or I’ll kill you.
Colonizing Mars
Is Elon religious enough to do it?
I don’t know, but I think there will be room for plenty of religions off planet, including new ones.
[Update a while later]
A new paper from the White House called “Making Human Settlement of Space a Reality” that contains almost nothing that would actually enable human settlement of space.
[Afternoon update]
Adam Routh wants to do Apollo again.
Journalism
How historically ignorant are “journalists”? This ignorant.
The Democrats’ War On Blacks
The party was founded to preserve slavery, and it continues to this day. It’s just taken a more insidious form.
Female Reporters Covering Trump
I’d have a mite more sympathy for them if I didn’t remember how many of these people thought this was perfectly fine way to treat Sarah Palin eight years ago. I would never use those kinds of words to describe Hillary, but I’m perfectly comfortable describing the former Secretary of State as a corrupt incompetent serial felon and liar.

[Update a few minutes later]
Hillary is a one-woman war on honesty. But despite her corruption, incompetence and lies, she’s part of the Washington “elite,” so she’s A-OK as far as the Bushes are concerned.
Want To Understand Hillary?
Read Saul Alinsky (who was the subject of her college thesis that she tried to keep hidden for so long).
The American Left are the direct ideological descendants of the Puritans.
[Update a few minutes later]
The Clinton campaign repeatedly overcharged poor donors. Doing her bit for wealth inequality.
How To Make A Spaceship
I just received a review copy of this new book, which looks quite interesting, given that I personally know almost everyone involved, for decades (though I don’t make an appearance). Should be a good history of SEDS, ISU, and the X-Prize.
Hillary’s Birthers
The media’s hair is on fire over Trump’s claim that she started it back in 2008, but he’s right. No, of course she didn’t say it herself. That’s what she has sycophantic surrogates like Sid for.
