ImageWaPo turns guns on GOP front-runner
They’re investigating Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker’s college years. Did they do that with the Worm? Do we even know what Obozo’s undergraduate grade average was at Occidental, let along Columbia, as WaPo made sure to tell us about W.’s gentleman’s C at Yale?
Of course not. Is this, their latest zeal to reveal the GOP frontrunner’s past, a better demonstration of how the WaPo is a Democrat servant, a lapdog to one political party while pretending to be objective journalists. A lot like Brian Williams, in fact.
Via Legal Insurrection.
UPDATE: PJMedia’s Michael Walsh calls it: a “thoroughly nasty piece of work that brings shame and disgrace on both its writer and the newspaper.” Yep, that’s the Democrat snooze media. They’re well acquainted with shame and disgrace.

Obama’s takeover of the Internet
Ajit Varadaraj Pai is the only Republican commissioner of the FCC—soon to be known as the Department of the Internet. He is a lonely voice against the Worm’s impending takeover of the Web in the duplicitous name of protecting its “net neutrality.”
As PJMedia’s Roger L. Simon writes Obama “will say practically anything to achieve his goals without regard to the truth.”
As usual, Lyin’ Brian Williams and his cronies of the alphabet snooze media are ignoring that, the takeover and Pai. For them, what Pai calls impending federal “micromanagement” of the Net could mean a return to the glory days when they had a monopoly on electronic news and opinion. They’ve been covering for Wormtongue for six years now and they certainly won’t undermine any federal diminution of their chief competitor.
(Consider Lyin’ Brian’s take on bloggers here.)
The Worm, of course, would love to knock out his primary critics, the PJMedias and a host of other conservative/libertarian bloggers with millions of readers who’ve exposed his lies and his general corruption of the IRS, DOJ, etc. He may not be able to achieve his main goal of putting Fox News and Rush Limbaugh out of business, but he’ll settle for censoring Instapundit, Breitbart and the Drudge Report.
Like your Internet the way it is now, do you? Sorry, you can’t keep it. King No-Hope still has two years on the throne and he has other plans.
UPDATE: Well, that didn’t take long. Now the Worm’s Federal Elections Commission (POTUS appoints them so they are his) is talking about regulating bloggers or any entity that uses “the Internet to influence policy and campaigns”, as opposed to newspapers and television which do it all the time.
The birth of the ballpoint
“The greatest interest in the ballpoint pen came from American flyers who had been to Argentina during World War II. Apparently it was ideal for pilots because it would work well at high altitudes and, unlike fountain pens, did not have to be refilled frequently.”
Argentina? That’s where the Jewish-Hungarian Ladislas Biro and his brother, Georg fled World War II and set up a factory in 1943 to manufacture their ballpoint invention. They were still developing it in 1944 when they ran out of money. The Eberhard Faber Company paid them $500,000 for the rights to manufacture it in the U. S. But it still needed work.
Finally, in 1945, Gimbels sold 10,000 aluminum ballpoint pens in one day at $12.50 each. Today, of course, they’re made of plastic and so cheap that businesses give them away for advertising.
Via IdeaFinder & Ian McEwen’s novel The Innocent where I saw the flyer connection mentioned and got curious. Which you can do with the Internet.

Grandma was right
Bundle up or you’ll catch your death, grandmother used to say in the winter.
Mr. B. and his cronies prefer smug. And shorts and tee-shirts, whatever the temp. He already has a stuffed sinus and runny nose. Proof, once again, of the stupidity of youth.
Comes now research showing that, yes, indeed, when you get cold you are more receptive to infection by the rhinoviruses that cause the common cold.
“The colder we get, the easier it is for the rhinovirus to trounce us into sniffling, sneezing defeat.” Could be that’s why it’s called a “cold.” Ya think?
Which, nowadays, is mostly a nuisance, unless it morphs into the flu or pneumonia. Whereas, in grandma’s pre-antibiotic days of mainly empirical research, it could lead straight to the death-bed.
