It takes us back to our society half a century ago.
As I’ve said repeatedly, the part of the film that requires the most suspension of disbelief is that NASA would ever be sufficiently audacious and cost effective to send someone to Mars.

Milo Yiannopoulos
His terrifying allure. An interesting story by one of his feminist “adversaries.”
The IRS
The Department of (In)Justice may be running interference for you, but your legal problems haven’t gone away, and aren’t going to.
[Afternoon update]
More of this, please. Papers have been filed in the House for the impeachment of John Koskinen for (among other things) destruction of evidence.
Gina McCarthy should be next.
The Donald
…finally treats a political opponent with respect and good faith.
I understand the white-hot anger at the GOPe, and share it. I will never comprehend the notion that Trump is a rational response to it. He’s a Democrat, and a opportunistic chameleon with (like Romney) no discernible political principles.
When God Goes Away
…superstition takes his place. Including things like the climate-change religion.
I think it was Chesterton who said that when people cease believing in God, they don’t believe in nothing, they believe anything. This is why, despite my own lack of belief, I think that attacks on organized religion by the Left (as engaged in by people like Dawkins and Dennett) can be disastrous. Like death, God serves a useful societal purpose, if not for every individual, whether He exists or not.
The California High-Speed Boondoggle
This idiocy can’t end soon enough. Fortunately, even the state’s idiot electorate has finally seen the light.
Appendix N
Why he isn’t President Romney. Mitt was a good businessman (and a good man, among the best ever to run for president), and the country would be in much better shape, both domestically and overseas, if he had won. But he had (and has) no discernible political principles or ideology, and cannot fathom anyone who does. The electorate could tell, and they wanted something more. [Update quite a bit later] I’m having serious link issues today. Fixed now, sorry. …is sounding both partisan and senile on Fox News Sunday. No one is accusing Clinton of a crime in Benghazi. Her crimes have to do with her handling of email. But that’s no excuse for the Democrats to pretend that there’s nothing there, and run interference for her. This has been policitized, but as always, it’s politicized by Democrats who refuse to hold members of their own party accountable for anything. Won’t face any charges for her crimes. Of course she won’t. They protect their own, as long as they’re loyal.Mitt Romney
