Articles: The Olympics and Feminist-Style Reporting

Articles: The Olympics and Feminist-Style Reporting: "We understand the different roles of birds and fish partially because we recognize the differences between them.  We don't, for instance, put a goldfish in a birdcage and then attribute its flopping and twitching to a lack of affirmative action; we don't use Buff Tabbies in place of German Shepherds in a shipyard at night and then wonder in the morning why the place was robbed.  Likewise, if we're blind to the differences between the sexes, will we be able to establish the proper policies and social norms for them?     "

Why are liberals so intolerant? « Hot Air

Why are liberals so intolerant? « Hot Air: "Americans have spent more than 200 years debating and disagreeing on a range of contentious issues. That’s why we treasure free speech. But these recent actions — using political threats against a restaurant chain, advocating for the termination of a university professor and attacking a private organization’s right of association — threaten to undermine that very right."

Articles: Oy Vey! Nancy Pelosi Wants to Protect Me from Being Exploited

Articles: Oy Vey! Nancy Pelosi Wants to Protect Me from Being Exploited: " Government to feed us with food stamps.  We are "entitled."  Government to pay us with welfare.  Another "entitlement."  Government to fabricate artificial jobs for us until government has no money left to compensate us further.  Government to protect us from unworthy teachers being paid less than master teachers.  Government to protect us from drinking too much soda.  Government to protect the world from overheating by limiting the amount of oil we can produce at home, forcing us to buy it instead from Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, and from other despotic and barbaric tyrannies who produce their oil with none of the environmental safeguards adopted by American industry.  Government to make our fuel cleaner by requiring that it be made with corn, leading to exacerbated famine in Africa."

New Warren ad: Golly, why aren’t we more like China? « Hot Air: "The latest ad from the DNCC’s prime-time speaker compares America unfavorably to China, demands more government spending, and its title “Rebuild” reminds voters of her original “you didn’t build that” rant to entrepreneurs.  What could go wrong?"

Michelle Malkin » Nanny State job-killers: The feds’ war on…Buckyballs!: "Obama’s big-business pals sit on do-nothing jobs councils and host countless dog-and-pony shows touting their commitment to “Startup America.” But when a 3-year-old startup that has earned $50 million in sales all on its own faces ruthless bureaucratic extinction, the government jobs blowhards are nowhere to be found."

Green Car Collides with Laws of Thermodynamics, the Real 'Inconvenient Truth'

Green Car Collides with Laws of Thermodynamics, the Real 'Inconvenient Truth': " Had Steven Chu really learned his thermodynamics he would have told his boss about the real inconvenient truth. Instead he either intended that the US should fail, or that hope could overcome the second law of thermodynamics. As he won a real Nobel Prize in low temperature physics, he had to know that hope could not prevail, which then leaves me to think he had no interest in the USA formulating and executing a viable energy policy and that he wanted failure as he had no interest in us succeeding.  "
