Kim Priestap explains.  This one is definitely worth reading.  We are witnessing mob rule, with the bizarre twist that the mob is the government itself. And Michael Ramirez, with one picture, has the last, best word.

California should be afraid, really, really afraid.  Andy Stern has announced that, with Obama’s failure to come through, the unions are going to focus on California with a vengeance.  And just FYI, Babs Boxer is embracing the unions with open arms. Two green stories for you:  The first is a

Laer has temporarily suspended blogging at Cheat-Seeking Missiles, but that doesn’t mean he’s not still commenting on the insane California scene.  If you Tweet, and you’d like to know the latest in California insanity, become a follower of Crazifornia.

The Group-Palooza that I blogged about here is taking place in Marin today.  There are 400 attendees plus a long waiting list.  The local Organizing For America (the Obama activist organization) is getting nervous, and sent an emergency email out to its followers saying that it would be “embarrassing” if

We’re trembling on the precipice, and Nancy Pelosi, who has balls of steel and no moral compass, will push us over. UPDATE:  Quin Hillyer on the profound disrespect Obama and Co. have for Americans.

I can say without exaggeration that I’m a pretty smart person.  Not brilliant, but definitely a long-tail on that part of the bell curve dedicated to higher IQs.  I used to think this mattered tremendously.  The older I get, though, the less impressed I am by my own intelligence or

One of the main problems with medical costs is insurance itself.  My son had oral surgery today (tied to orthodontic stuff).  The cost was horrific.  I didn’t think about it twice.  Aside from the fact that the oral surgeon came highly recommended (and it was my son under the knife,

I will be away from my computer this morning.  Have at it!

Marin County — bluest of blue spots on the American political map.  And yet, just today, a friend of mine spotted the following posted anonymously on the bulletin board at a well-traveled supermarket in Sausalito: More than 5,000 years ago, Moses said to the Children of Israel, “Pick up your
