Whose ideas inspired them to hate America?
Hint: It wasn’t Sarah Palin, or the Tea Party, much to the disappointment of the media idiots.

Time For The Euro To Go
If We Can Have A Select Committee On Haircuts
…we can certainly have one on Benghazi.
One is clearly needed.
From The Choom Gang
He’s hypocritical on everything else, so this is no surprise.
Dollar Jobs
If I were an employer, I wouldn’t want “free” labor of that nature, because it can consume too many resources just trying to manage it, when you’d have no authority because it could just walk away with no penalty. It’s the same problem that people have with volunteer organizations.
I have a better, and slightly less controversial proposal. Just let the market work, and eliminate the minimum wage. It would do wonders for youth unemployment in the inner city.
Obama Fatigue
It’s finally arrived.
A year too late, unfortunately for the nation.
The Benghazi Talking Points
Within hours of the initial attack on the U.S. facility, the State Department Operations Center sent out two alerts. The first, at 4:05 p.m. (all times are Eastern Standard Time), indicated that the compound was under attack; the second, at 6:08 p.m., indicated that Ansar al Sharia, an al Qaeda-linked terrorist group operating in Libya, had claimed credit for the attack. According to the House report, these alerts were circulated widely inside the government, including at the highest levels. The fighting in Benghazi continued for another several hours, so top Obama administration officials were told even as the fighting was taking place that U.S. diplomats and intelligence operatives were likely being attacked by al Qaeda-affiliated terrorists. A cable sent the following day, September 12, by the CIA station chief in Libya, reported that eyewitnesses confirmed the participation of Islamic militants and made clear that U.S. facilities in Benghazi had come under terrorist attack. It was this fact, along with several others, that top Obama officials would work so hard to obscure.
And with the help of a supportive/indifferent media, they succeeded. Until now.
Homosexuals
Are they born, or made? My thoughts on Jason Collins and his twin brother, over at PJMedia.
The Lessons Of ObamaCare
These are important ones (though not the only ones):
No more “gangs,” no more hurry-up votes on incredibly long bills that no one has read. Normal order: Committee hearings in both houses, markups, votes without special closed rules, conference committees to resolve differences. In other words, a deliberative process. If Obama hadn’t been trying so hard for a “win,” he wouldn’t have abandoned that approach for basically his entire presidency. He still didn’t win much — except for ObamaCare, and the bills for that “win” are coming due.
They don’t seem to have learned them with immigration. “Comprehensive” solutions are generally comprehensively bad, like a broken Rubik’s cube.
Earth Week Carbonator Winner
Iowahawk has crowned the new champion:
I realize this choice is not without controversy, and that some Earth Day Cruisers may be grumbling about the contest being rigged. But before you send those “I wuz robbed” complaint emails, ask yourself this: did you fly a private 747 round trip to Chicago to deliver a 600 word, 20 minute speech touting….
[wait for it]
It was no contest, really. Our monster trucks never stood a chance.
