Weekly link update

Jim Mullen writes a weekly generally funny weekly column.  In this one, he captures every popular Internet scam currently being perpetrated on the unsuspecting public.  If you read nothing else, read this column so you will be prepared for the next phone call.

Want to get into Princeton? First of all, it helps to be a minority, unless you're Asian-American of course. Look at how the scores compare for different ethnic groups. On top of that, you need to show cultural flavor, whatever that is.

An Army Ranger has written a book with excellent lessons for life. Read what he has to say about Benghazi

Donald Trump is being charged in the media with obstruction of justice. Read what liberal Alan Dershowitz has to say about the Constitution and the Executive Branch of government. It seems that the President can decide who gets justice.

James Comey prosecuted Martha Stewart and some other innocent people that you may not have heard about. Read about his long history of questionable cases.  Here's an article digging into Comey's testimony that argues Comey is the biggest loser.

The US Navy has commissioned a new combat ship the USS Gabrielle Giffords. Now Ms. Giffords is a nice lady, but all she really did was get shot by an insane person. Normally the Navy names ships after actual heroes, or politicians that made a real impact, or cities or states. Nobody outside Arizona had heard of her before the shooting. This seems like a case of political correctness run a muck. Strangely enough, there wasn't much commentary from the usual sources; am I the only person mean enough to question this decision?
