Meryl Streep’s Margaret Thatcher

Margaret Thatcher is… The Iron Lady
Has anyone heard of the movie The Iron Lady? Neither have I. It’s actually a biopic about Baroness Margaret Thatcher.
But, I probably shouldn’t talk about it, since the movie is infuriating her children.
I love how they said “it sounds like some Left-wing fantasy.” And how they won’t talk about it to the media, because they don’t want people to be curious about it. Go Thatchers!
Anyway, don’t go see this movie when it comes out. Because it will be dumb.

Houston, We Have A Problem
Jul 9th
Please tell me they’re joking. They have to be joking, right? There’s no way this is true!
The foremost mission of NASA — the National Aeronautic and Space Administration — is now to improve relations with the Muslim world?
I thought we were talking about NASA here. You know, the guys who went to the moon, took pictures of space, and popularized Tang.
And now we’re going to make the Muslim world “feel good about” themselves? I’m not making that up; Administrator Charles Bolden said, “to help them feel good about their historic contribution to science…”
Absolutely! Here’s a few right off the top of my head. Increased understanding of geology in arid climates, an in-depth study of the “fight-or-flight” response in an isolated sociopolitical setting, and a deeper understanding of dishonesty on an international scale. To be fair, in the 11th century, Ibn al-Haytham was important in developing the scientific method, but that was almost a thousand years ago.
Wanna compare to some of Israel’s contributions?

Elena Kagan Wants Your Nom Noms
Jul 1st
Beware! Your spaghetti and meatballs are at stake! Hide your fried chicken! Don’t let them see the cake!
But in all seriousness, I’m actually glad someone is talking about Congress abusing the Commerce Clause. If you noticed, I linked to something else on Monday that asks questions about it, too…
Elena Kagan (and other liberals) should read the Constitution again, specifically Article II Section 8, and more than just Clause 3. And it wouldn’t hurt to take a look at the Ninth and Tenth Amendments, while she’s as it.

Supreme Court and Guns
Jun 28th
Supreme Court and Guns
This just in! The Supreme Court has made a 5 to 4 ruling in support of individual gun rights.
Specifically, this strikes down the ban on handguns in Chicago.
Heck, guns have been so banned in Chicago, you can’t even find the word “gun” or “firearm” on the Chicago wikipedia page!
So, there. A great step forward to firearm freedom.
