…reminds us of why he was such a terrible candidate.
A businessman should know better.

Sympathy For The Devil
There’s something about Harry:
The Editors would like to extend our condolences to Senator Harry Reid and his family as they go through this difficult time. While we can only guess at the exact nature of the psychiatric or neurological trauma the Senate majority leader has suffered, we assume that it is severe, judging by his symptoms, the most prominent of which is his new habit of taking to the Senate floor to deliver speeches that sound like they ought to be coming from a man wearing a bathrobe in front of a liquor store in Cleveland.
Seriously, I do wonder if the blows he took to the head as a boxer have finally caught up with him. If I were a Democrat, I’d be mortified to have this creature running the senate.
Hilton’s Lunar Hotel
It got derailed by the space industrial complex.
Chuck Lorre
…takes on the Chinese over The Big Bang Theory being banned in China.
The Russian Lunar Base
Any government program that has a plan for fifteen years out shouldn’t be taken very seriously. If they really wait that long, they’ll likely be greeted by the concierge at a Bigelow facility. You don’t build a “colony” with a humungous expensive expendable launch system.
The Minimum Wage
No, Joe, it didn’t help end the Depression. It extended it.
Inspectors General
Are under systematic attack by this administration.
Well, of course. IGs are very inconvenient when you are systematically corrupt.
[Early afternoon update]
Post title has been corrected. As with attorney’s general, “Inspector” is the noun, “General” is the adjective. Which is why it’s a terrible error to call them (for example) “General Holder.”
Obama’s Latest Lie
Gets four pinocchios.
Why does anyone believe anything he says any more?
[Late-morning update]
¿QUIÉN ES EL MENTIROSO MÁS GRANDE?
When it comes to lying, Bill Clinton may still be considered the reigning champion, and there is certainly a strong case to be made on his behalf. Considering the deep lies of Obamacare, however, and the lack of conscience Obama demonstrated in promulgating them in order to get the law enacted, Obama’s right to the title really ought to be recognized by now.
If he were a Republican, it would be.
The Age Of Obama
Time to start thinking about its passing, and what comes after.
It’s not passing fast enough for me.
53 percent in the 2014 poll say it is more important to have Republican congressional majorities to check Obama’s policies, compared to 39 percent who believe it is more important to have Democratic congressional majorities to support those policies.
I continue to think it not outside the realm of possibility that the Republicans could run and win on a ticket of repealing and replacing the Democrats in the White House. Particularly as new revelations come to light about the IRS. At some point the scandals will metastasize into one big one.

As I tweeted a while ago, it’s pretty amusing to watch all the concern trolling from Democrats about the new investigation.
[Update a few minutes more later]
Chris Stevens was one of them, a Team Obama loyalist. But they abandoned him and dishonored him in death because the President’s political needs outweighed his life. The heartlessness of all these caring, compassionate Democrats would impress Putin – if it was ever applied to America’s enemies.
Indeed.

Building the case for Obama’s impeachment. Should be a very timely book
If You Like Your Un-Nuked Country
…you can keep your un-nuked country. Period:
“The US delegation reaffirmed our commitment to prevent Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon,” said a White House statement released after talks in Jerusalem between Rice, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and senior officials from both sides.
“The delegations held thorough consultations on all aspects of the challenge posed by Iran, and pledged to continue the unprecedented coordination between the United States and Israel,” it added.”
I’m sure that Israel feels much more secure now.
