Sen Collin's was concerned. Just not concerned enough. Time for her to be concerned while retired.

I've been getting this message a lot recently when I try to load this site on my ipad

Sears has been out funded by a large margin. No one on the ticket likes the Lt Gov nominee. Youngkin has been extremely silent so far this campaign. Miyares is down by 6 points in the latest poling. I find it interesting that a lot of the usual spots where you expect Republican yard signs are empty. Spanberger has several sings in Republican strongholds on the Northern Neck

Seems like we're repeating 2020. This time without the virus, so far

This lead me down another rabbit hole this morning. Those alumn who have been around here a while may remember William Speelman, aka Eastside Billie. Evidently his band recorded a song called Jim Walewander Blues that received a bit of airplay. Especially in Lakeland during Spring Training

I get that, but isn't there a current test for citizenship? Can't the Regime do selective "grading" if they choose. Still I'd tie it to requirements that candidates for state and federal offices take a comprehensive test on constitutional and historic subjects as a condition for running for office?

My whole point. Especially regarding those who want to "serve" us. If you can't pass a literacy test you don't deserve to govern. Elitist I know, but to quote JD Vance....

I can't argue with the concept of a tougher citizenship test. But I will propose all office seekers and appointees to federal offices also be required to take the test with the results being public.

I think Murrow saw this coming. Watch George Clooney's Good Night and Good Luck. Hopefully the Broadway edition they did on CNN is on YouTube or floating around somewhere. The highlight to me has always been his speech to the RTNDA ( now called the Radio TV Digitial News Association) back in the day it was the Radio Television News Directors Association. Now it seems that there is no news to direct.

Frankly if we reach DEFCON 1, I don't think it really matters. We need to start teaching our grandkids how to effectively Duck and Cover

Trying real hard for that Nobel Peace Prize thingy

I don’t understand why they keep bending themselves into pretzels to defend him

Very telling that L’agent Orange wasn’t invited

If this is anywhere near the truth then Trump would have been yelling it from the White House rooftop. Release the files and instead of redacting Trump’s name black out the victims.

Karma is a bitch....

Was having flashbacks to a minor league game I attended about 50 years ago. Freak accident where the right fielder dove for a short fly and collided with the second baseman. The kid's head hit the second baseman's knee (he was wearing a brace). Ironically the infielder, a organizational player, had signed the kid to his first pro contract
