The next too-big-to-fail train wreck on the horizon.
Just before he left for vacation, President Obama invited the GOP to commit political suicide, urging the Republican-controlled House of Representatives to get behind the Senate's comprehensive immigration reform bill. "There are a few differences here and there, but the truth of the matter is that the Senate bill has the main components of comprehensive immigration reform that would boost our economy, give us an opportunity to attract more investment and high-skilled workers who are doing great things in places like Silicon Valley and around the country," Obama said. "So let's go ahead and get that done."

The startling truth about America's biggest poverty centers and the politics that produces them.
On June 15 in Tarrant County, Texas, a Burleson Walmart security camera recorded footage of 16-year-old Ethan Couch and his friends shoplifting two cases of beer. That same night, Couch was driving 70 mph in his father's Ford F-350 pickup in a 40 mph zone when he lost control of the vehicle. In the ensuing collision, four people standing by an SUV that had broken down were killed. Two people riding in Couch's truck were severely injured. One can no longer move or talk due to a brain injury. The other suffered broken bones and internal injuries. Three hours after the crash, Couch had a blood alcohol content of 0.24, three times the legal limit, as well as traces of Valium in his system. Last week State District Judge Jean Boyd sentenced Couch to to 10 years probation, and ordered him to receive therapy at a long-term, in-patient facility, because she didn't believe jail would the right place to get it. Therapy for what? Psychiatrist G. Dick Miller testified that Couch suffered from "affluenza" and that his parents gave him "freedoms no young person should have."

It takes a lot to creep me out, as the expression goes. But in the space of a single week, four stories have painted a rather disturbing picture with regard to the kind of person Barack Obama really is. And one other story epitomizes the extent to which our hopelessly compromised mainstream media are willing to go to shield Americans from that reality.

With some notable exceptions, including a very large one for veterans of the Vietnam War, no previous generation of Americans was as self-*absorbed* as my own generation of Boomers. Note the word "previous." Unfortunately, we have done a rather remarkable job of cultivating that noxious trait among subsequent generations.

The deadline for fixing the broken site is looking more and more like a pipe dream.
Last week, many pundits and politicians on the right were gleeful, believing that ObamaCare, in all its hubristic and over-reaching glory, signaled the demise of progressivism. Even the progressives thought so, which is why the execrable Harry Reid (D-NV) exercised the nuclear option in the Senate, and the Obama administration announced a "breakthrough" deal with Iran that is nothing of the sort.
On to packing the court system with Obama's radicals.
