CNS News: A provision of President Obama’s health care law imposes a second Medicare tax on investment income for Americans classified as wealthy, effectively raising taxes on investment income and taxing investors twice. The provision, a little-known part of ObamaCare, levies a 3.8 percent Medicare tax on investment income for couples making more than $250,000 or individuals making more than $200,000 a year. The tax is scheduled to go into

Good lord. The tin-eared infantalization of women represented by this propaganda campaign — you empowered dears who vote “progressive” need the State as your daddy from womb to tomb, and your political agitation on behalf of such profound dependence on government is said to be proof of your independence and authenticity — is absolutely surreal to behold.

At NRO, Charles Cooke sagely asserts that Words Don’t Pull Triggers in a pointedly even-handed refutation of the accusation (and now lawsuit) that the Southern Poverty Law Center is responsible(-ish) for the attempted massacre at the Family Research Council. He recites previous attempts to link political rhetoric to rampage shootings—all of them from the Left, of course— to illustrate that if it’s absurd for the Left to recklessly assign blame

The Arab Spring, sprung yet again! Next time Obama has the Muslim Brotherhood over for sweet tea and figs, he can maybe get some input on just how to rid the country of the hate promulgated by talk radio and FOXNews. For, like, the children.  And of course, freedom.
