Allright, now they've gone too far....

I thought this was a notable factoid.

Flag burning: who knew it could be dangerous?

"You're on fire. You're on fire, stupid," an officer shouted as he wielded a can of extinguishing spray.

US Navy: stuck on stupid?

[Representative Duncan Hunter] describes the decision-makers behind the Great Green Fleet as "all the smartest guys that went to the John F. Kennedy School of Smart People," and calls their interest in biofuels "just stupid."

...

Biofuels need to be created from something, and according to a report released last year by the nonpartisan World Resources Institute, a Washington, DC-based research group, meeting 20 percent of global energy demand using plant-based biofuels by 2050 "would require humanity to at least double the world's annual harvest of plant material in all its forms.... Therefore, the quest for bioenergy at a meaningful scale is both unrealistic and unsustainable."

Someone wanted to take a boat and cruise around the Arctic Ocean to show how much global warming has impacted the sea ice there. But they ran into a small problem:

they are currently stuck in Murmansk, Russia because there is too much ice blocking the North East passage the team said didn’t exist in summer months, according to Real Climate Science.

Ah, Murmansk, home to the Northern Fleet. Hopefully the adventurers can return home before the actual winter sets in. Also, what was their carbon footprint?

Elizabeth Warren, call your damage control team:

Yes folks, it’s another one in my regular series of ‘bash Elizabeth Warren’ posts.

But this one is dead serious.

So, how did Warren earn that $44,000 consulting paycheck from Travelers Insurance?

By helping Travelers Insurance limit its liability exposure from asbestos lawsuits.

An op-ed in the LATimes:

If Trump wins, a coup isn't impossible here in the U.S.

Who's gonna lead that? you, Mr. Kirchick? there's a vast difference between a military officer refusing an illegal order and a coup. And since you're a fellow with the Foreign Policy Initiative, you should know that.

Who didn't see this coming?

First they came for your Big Gulp sodas. Then it was your donuts. But now the liberal elite are drawing the ultimate battle line in the sand. At the Washington Post, Laura Wellesley argues in favor of having the government “enable a change” in the amount of meat you consume. Is Ms. Wellesley a doctor? A dietary specialist? Perhaps some expert in agricultural issues? No… perish the thought. She’s a climate change specialist.

Don't tell me there's any shred of intelligence, courage, or integrity in vote for Donald Trump.

This isn't about his ego, it's about yours.

You're staying home, right? Because nobody's voting for you?

Meanwhile, I'm not impressed at all that the alternative is to vote for more of the exact same political machine that has produced nearly every objectionable action recited on this blog.

Take a deep breath and practice this, everyone:

"Shut up. When you voted for Hillary, you approved of this."

TSA, SWAT teams for the Dept of Education, transgender bathrooms, failure to enforce existing border law, downsizing military while arming more "civil servants", Common Core, First Lady directives for school diet, the elevation of Black Lives Matter, imperatives for the public to appease global warming backers acting with government power... and with no change in crony capitalism or foreign entangements, because the President simply isn't accountable through cult of personality.
What's the literary term? ibid.

First husband directives Rad. First husband.

I haven't a clue what point you're trying to make. The words aren't that long or unusual, it's just impossible to make sense of them, to identify the context where they'd fit.

I'm going to stay home from what?

You imagine me to be a candidate in what race?

Well, social movements as powerful as these will never be resolved by clucking scolds, but as I've already described by voting-booth intentions anyway, I'll assume you were thinking of someone else.
