Joel Kotkin follows up on Robert Samuelson. When will these religious fanatics understand that this makes no economic sense? Well, if this Congress doesn’t pull the plug on this lunacy, the next one (in even more dire financial straits) surely will.
…and the Obama administration’s impotence.
The Birchers were wrong about a lot of things, but not this one. Time to get out. Long past time.
The case against it.
Khadaffi flees LibyaTripoli? I wonder if he had time to grab his female body guards (always seemed such an odd thing in such a misogynistic culture).
Anyway, let’s hope it’s so, though what replaces is always worrisome in a place like that. And my preference would have been incineration in the burning parliament. That would be a more fitting and permanent solution to that particular boil on the ass of humanity.

A reminder from Michael Totten of how awful he is.
I agree. That absurd name elevates Buchanan, Pierce, the fascist dictator Wilson and the hapless Jimmy Carter (not to mention the present inhabitant of the White House) to the same supposed national esteem as George Washington. It’s absurd.
The mask is off — the leftists in academia intrinsically hate the military. I wonder what excuse they’ll come up with to continue to violate the law and keep ROTC off campuses now?
It was pretty obvious to me and many at the time, but it’s becoming more and more clear that soldiers were murdered at Fort Hood out of political correctness and an insane multi-culturalism, in the one institution in which we can least afford it.

I should add that while I have a generally low opinion of Senator Collins, she deserves kudos, along with Senator Lieberman, for continuing to prevent this from being swept under the carpet.
…and the new medical ethics.
I’m having trouble working up much angst about this. But then, I’ve never been a fan of Big Music.
People will continue to make music, and sell it. But they’ll have to rely more on talent than hype, and few will get as unreasonably rich as they did in the past on it. More will be doing it because they want to make music. And the general collectivist inclination of political contributions of the industry and individual “artists” (to use the term loosely in many cases)) is just a bonus.
