Old enough to remember when Left's hair was on fire over WJC's sexual assaults and how unfit it made him.
Oh, wait, no one is that old.

Our Raunchy President
The media covered up JFK’s predatory sexual behavior and other things, like his mafia ties, while he was in office. Looks like, toward the end of his final term, they’ve doing the same thing with Barack Obama. As Glenn often says, if you want a media that will be a watchdog, instead of a lapdog over the White House, elect a Republican.
The Decision To Not Indict Clinton
In other words, Comey lied to Congress when he said it was unanimous. Unless he meant it was unanimous to indict.
The Dream Lives On
Despite the setback of a year ago at XCOR, there’s still hope for spaceflight. An inspiring interview with Jeff Greason.
[Thursday-morning update]
A little back story.
@rocketrepreneur @YouTube That interview was given about a week before what I knew was last chance effort to stay at XCOR. I stand by it.

Sexbots
Don’t worry, they won’t ruin sex. I think that, like other technological advances, they will increase opportunities for more people.
Cultural Imperialism
Apropos of this thread, stop telling me I’m violent, or I’ll kill you.
The Limits Of Knowledge
The climate debate has an epistemological problem that proponents of policy to deal with it want to pretend doesn’t exist. I wrote about the flawed precautionary principle years ago.
Placebo Buttons
I’d always wondered about this sort of thing.
Commercial Crew
Looks like Boeing is going to slip into 2019.
We remain dependent on the Russians because we remain unwilling to risk astronauts’ lives on something as hazardous as spaceflight.
Colonizing Mars
Is Elon religious enough to do it?
I don’t know, but I think there will be room for plenty of religions off planet, including new ones.
[Update a while later]
A new paper from the White House called “Making Human Settlement of Space a Reality” that contains almost nothing that would actually enable human settlement of space.
[Afternoon update]
Adam Routh wants to do Apollo again.
