Welcome to your complimentary Friday LinkSwarm. I steal collect these from all over, including Ace of Spades HQ, Instapundit, Twitter, Facebook, and a dozen other places
Really, is there any book that screams “love story” like George Orwell’s 1984?
Reminder: North Korea is still an unmitigated communist hellhole. Not that anyone whose name isn’t Dennis Rodman has forgotten…
More people in Illinois sign up for concealed carry than ObamaCare. That’s so delicious I might have to rerun it for the next ObamaCare and gun news roundups…
Insurers say they’re just fine and dandy with ObamaCare subsidies.
ObamaCare cast pall of gloom over Democratic attempts to take the House. Now if only I could figure out where I placed my nanoscale violin…
Jonah Goldberg further explores the theme:
In 2009, retiring Arkansas representative Marion Berry presciently warned that Obamacare was setting up the Democrats for a huge defeat in the 2010 midterms, just like “Hillarycare” had led to a loss of 54 House seats in 1994. Obama scoffed at such concerns. According to Berry, the president told him, “Well, the big difference here and in ’94 was you’ve got me.” Republicans went on to win 63 House seats and six Senate seats. It was the largest swing in the House since 1938. So I guess the difference was him.
Liberal New York Times editor wonders why cancer patients can’t just hurry up and die.
Retiring congressman Jim Moran: Scumbag.
Compared to the Obama Administration, Chris Christie is a rank amateur in the vindictiveness Olympics.
“If the current president is making a mess of everything and almost no one is being held accountable, isn’t that a bigger story?”

100,000 government employees escape union control.
Obama (wait for it) gives a speech, claiming that the solution is (wait for it) bigger government. (Save this sentence, and you’ll find that you can use it over and over again the next three years…)
Michael Totten on Syria: “Today we have a near-zero chance of a non-horrible outcome.”
How the American Studies Association anti-Israel boycott breaks the law.
Baltic Dry Index collapsing?
I think I know what the next Alamo Draft House “don’t talk on your cell in the theater” ad will be.
Liberal actually says that the Obama Administration has no serious scandals. It’s like that Monty Python skit where the British naval officer is denying cannibalism while the guy next to him is munching on a human leg.
I am heartened to see that not a single commenter supports his absurdist whitewash.
Is Egypt getting ready to take the wood to Hamas?
