Election fallout: The Republicans in Congress have already reneged on their "no earmarks" pledge that Tea Party election winners had tried to get their mainstream GOPers to go along with.
Now that's the kind of real commitment to cleaning up government we were looking for.
And while conservatives were thrilled with the results November's election produced, it wasn't all that. The "vote out the Democrats" mania didn't get rid of the real left-wingers. They're safely ensconced in liberal voting districts.
On the other hand, some of the Dems that did get tossed were "blue dog" Democrats, the more moderate to conservative Democrats who fought President Obama on heath care -- and those who could have served to bridge the gap between parties.
So we wind up with even more division in Washington, which was enough of a mess already.
Heaven forbid we actually get anything done in return for the taxes we're paying.
So the president of Ohio State says Boise State and TCU are unworthy to play for a national title.
Based on Ohio State's sorry performance in BCS title games he should know unworthy when he sees it.
Turns out it's not the tryptophan in turkey that knocks you out after Thanksgiving dinner. It's having gulped down two days' worth of calories in a single sitting that does the trick.
Your brain shuts down everything but the digestive system to deal with the caloric overload.
"Scottie, divert all power to life support." "Aye, captain."
More stores have Black Friday sales, and more get a head start by opening on Thanksgiving Day. Actual bargains, meanwhile, are harder and harder to find.
Is there anybody out there?
If not, at least I'm getting some crazy ideas out of my head by putting them in here.
