“Time to end the war on coal”
We all know that Obama essentially threatened to bankrupt the coal industry — the very industry responsible for creating the electricity for the ridiculous, unpopular cars he wishes we’d buy. But the extent to which he’s gone to keep his promise is even more staggering than we imagined. Rebekah Rast pools the frightening facts here.

“Justice Breyer on Obamacare: ‘I Haven’t Read Every Word of That, I Promise’”

Woke to this, from our friend Ryan, who would like you all to know that he isn’t afeared of any Jew prick blogger. He writes: Gosh golly gee, your internet detectives are getting close. So close! And yet so far away. If only you knew how entertaining I find this. Looking in the Murfreesboro Water Works is a dead end, though. Joel works in Nashville, not the ‘Boro. And I’m
