Her dissent may have actually had the effect of strengthening the opinion.
Liberals Versus Leftists
Can true liberals take the name back? Jonah Goldberg (with sadness) doesn’t think so.

RIP.
I haven’t read all his books, but The Rocket Team

A bunch of reasons to have one.
I’m not particularly persuaded by the carbon footprint thing, though.
Libertarians Are The New Communists
If you ignore all the stuff about the Hobby Lobby ruling, this is probably the nuttiest thing you’ll read today.
[Tuesday update]
The case for libertarian populism. There are a lot of good ideas there.

Guilty Until Proven Innocent
Let’s treat Lois Lerner the way she and the rest of the IRS would treat us.
Birth Control, Over The Counter
Yes, the Republicans should pass a bill to allow it.
Why Government Doesn’t Work
…and how to make it better.
Climate “Consensus”
Well, partially because it’s being dishonestly rammed down our throats to promote economically harmful policies.
The Huntsville Reality-Distortion Zone
This isn’t new, but I don’t think I linked it at the time. Eric Berger reports on the people working SLS:
May turns the cost issue around.
“My question would be, how could we afford not to do this?” May asked. “Great nations explore. Great nations push their boundaries. And this country has continued to the limits of what we know and learn for a generation, and I think we’ve got to continue to explore.”
And in the larger perspective, he argues, SLS does not cost that much. NASA spends about $1.6 billion a year building it, less than 9 percent of the space agency’s total budget, he said, which is itself less than one half of one percent of the federal budget.
“I think it’s a relatively small amount of money to set the leadership for the world in space exploration,” he says.
Count the number of logical fallacies in just those four grafs.
