WaPo raises the "and your mom dresses you in funny clothes" insult

Michelle Malkin:

Time and again, Washington Post Style reporter Robin Givhan hides behind fashion snarking and culture reporting to savage conservatives. She did it with Katherine Harris and Dick Cheney and John Bolton--and I'm sure you can remember many more examples of partisan mockery.

Well, today's conservative-bashing Style commentary sinks to the lowest low. The piece, "An Image A Little Too Carefully Coordinated" attacks the wife and children of SCOTUS nominee John Roberts for the neatness of their clothes....
Captain's Quarters:

Yesterday I wrote that when opponents of the Bush administration couldn't find anything nasty to say about SCOTUS nominee John Roberts, the Los Angeles Times decided to attack his wife and her devout Catholocism instead.

Read the WaPo article to see the original snark. Just what did Robin Givhan's mother make her wear when she was that age?

Drones appear to be replacing jets for many operations.  The Russia-Ukraine war is an example of that.  Drones are often hard to detect and can be used for intelligence operations as well as for attacking enemy targets.  It would not surprise me to see drones engaging other drones in combat.  They also cost much less than manned fighters.
