My thoughts on Neil Armstrong, over at PJMedia.

End Of An Icon
That’s a shame — he was only 82, which isn’t that old these days. No word of the cause of death. I’d heard that he’d been doing well since his recent heart surgery, so either there were later complications, or he just happened to succumb to something else.
The irony, of course, as it notes in the bio, is that he never wanted to be an icon, and generally shunned the publicity. In any event, ad astra, and resquiescat in pace.
[Update a few minutes later]
Well, my Facebook wall is all Neil, all the time.
The New Deal
Time to finally bring it to an end. The notion of positive rights is intrinsically Marxist.
Hitler Learns That Paul Ryan Is The VP Choice
OK, we all knew on Saturday that this was inevitable.
And speaking of Hitler parodies, Day By Day is doing its annual fundraiser.
Mark Twain Video
Not really — as the first commenter points out, it’s film, but it’s pretty cool. Particularly considering who the film maker was.
Modern Warfare
How to capture Cinderella’s Castle. Good ideas in comments.
It would be totally worth it just to take out “It’s A Small World.”
The Apocalyptic Daze
…of the secular watermelons, with their green, anti-human religion. Some of them may be very nice people, but they’re the opposite of Linus Van Pelt: they like people — it’s humanity they can’t stand.
The Eternal Meaning Of Independence Day
…thoughts from Abraham Lincoln.
“For Imposing Taxes On Us Without Our Consent”
Time for a new declaration of independence from those who would rule us.
By the way, a happy Independence Day to all, except the Democrats, for whom every day is Dependence Day.
The Declaration Of Independence
Annotated, by the hero of the recent Supreme Court fight over ObamaCare, Randy Barnett.
Also, the Declaration, brought into modern times:
When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to strengthen the political bands which have connected them with the Global Community, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the cooperative and deferential station which a careful review of the relevant peer reviewed literature suggests is most appropriate for long term win-win outcomes, a decent and rigorously equal respect to the opinions of woman- and man- and transkind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the ever deeper union.
It should be obvious that you want to read the whole thing.
