Yet I'm still seeing Winsome signs (Trumpublican candidate for governor) along rural highways. It's in their DNA

BTW, I'm not an over the top fanboy, but I've been impressed by what I've seen the couple of times we've stopped at a Buc-ee's. The first time out of curiosity, one of the others out of necessity. Service and attitude is good, restrooms live up to the hype. The food isn't bad either for highway fast food

The last couple of times we've tried them the service was horrible. The last time I think we sat for at least a half hour after waiting another 20 minutes to be seated before being told that they had run out of those items. Rather than waste another hour or so of our time, plus a waitress, server who really didn't care we walked out. No one apologized, asked how our meal was or anything. Granted it was about 8 o'clock on a Sunday evening near Beaufort, SC. We had been driving from Fort Lauderdale since about 10:00 and still had about an hour or so to our hotel. They're going to have to do something spectacular before they get our business again.

That would mean the NFL and the teams would have to give up $$ to do so. The league split over $433 from the past season. Assigning each team their own crew would mean two separate TV crews at each game. It works on radio because the teams can sell the radio broadcast rights (and keep the profits) but with revenue sharing TV rights are split among the teams (as I understand it). Basically assigning local TV Crews for each team would kill the Golden Goose.

I'm old enough when Bush the Lesser pushed for a pathway to citizenship and guest worker programs for immigrants saying something similar. Yet this guy has probably voted for Republicans his whole life.

I agree. But in reality the supposedly unbiased judiciary has also abandoned their principles in favor of ideology. It may have almost always been the case but it seems the most blatant in the 60 years or so I've been following politics

After watching the Lions/Bears game and the first half of the Vikings game last night. At least after week two Green Bay might be the only real threat to the Lions in the division. They'll be ok

I did a bit of digging. Technically Frum is correct, however Congress basically ceded a lot of the tariff laws to the executive branch. Going back to Smoot Hawley in the 1930s, and other tariff acts in the '60s and 70s, Congress has given the President the power to impose and negotiate tariffs. If you take the originalist's view Trump has overstepped his boundaries. The history of the courts says otherwise, they gave up that power a while ago. Or at least that's what ChatGPT tells me And since we have long agreed that this Congress has given up basically all designs at actual governing....and the Supreme Court has turned itself into a pretzel.....

Big macho guys playing soldier. Nothing but snowflakes

Pry got fired at VaTech. 6 plus million buyout. He can now sell cars full time

And he's not crazy about smart people.

Or start singing Wind Beneath My Wings

Sounds like something out of a Mel Brooks movie

If he had any decency he would have waited until after the funeral....

Virginia Tech was just annihilated by Old Dominion. That's what you get when your mascot is a turkey.

I've been seeing stories around here about localities falling all over themselves to lure these data centers. The same folks that keep finding excuses to deny solar farms and such. Interestingly enough the same folks pushing for these things are the ones screaming the loudest about a regional sports/entertainment facility being built in the area. They are also championing the building of another Buc-ees nearby

Selective Christianity

Let's not forget those who lost their lives at yet not her school shooting that basically got swept under the rug.
