@hank said: "With a track record like this both of us should apply for assignment to FOX or some similarly inaccurate news outlet."
Yes, we were inaccurate. FOX is NOT "inaccurate". They are DELIBERATELY misleading, and they damn well know it. They…
@hank- shouldn't be a need to record PBS News Hour- Go here, and you should be able to look at any recent Newshour programming. No membership required for News Hour, although we do support a local PBS outlet up near the Russian River house.

I sit corrected: Crash is right- Leo McGarry was Chief of Staff, the Veep on the show was, according to the script, not well liked. Or trusted.
I apologize for the sloppy reporting.
I have to wonder how many years we would need to stay there and how many more American service people would need to give their bodies and lives in the bottomless quicksand of Mideast religious and political antagonism.
Yes, just a top quality production all around. Allison Janney, of course- no question.
"What's Next", written by West Wing actresses Melissa Fitzgerald and Mary McCormack, was one of the books that I mentioned above. It gives great insight into t…
Bruce Springsteen Lyrics: "Streets Of Minneapolis"
Through the winter's ice and cold
Down Nicollet Avenue
A city aflame fought fire and ice

@Mark- If you use Amazon, there is a 25% off sale ($90) on a unit that has an 89% 5★ + 8% 4★ rating, and the customer reviews are simply excellent. It's the Cosori 6-Qt model.

Well, it's a hard call whether the regime is breaking all of our laws, norms and much of the constitution to redirect attention from the Epstein affair, or remembering the Epstein affair would redirect attention from the regime breaking all of our l…
I don't know how any other state could have higher electric bills than California. That would really take some doing. PG&E isn't going to give up that record if they can help it.
Just look at some of those faces- I'd say that most of this administration's statements can indeed be taken at face value. Would you like me to post an array of those faces?
(If that sounds like a threat, it is. I've got a great library of Trump fa…
Yes, and that's also interesting. My wife has always had a strong interest in the stage and it's performers- me, not so much, with the exception of opera performances and stage musicals. San Francisco is so fortunate to have a first-rate opera compa…
For me "polls" is a very interesting subject. I also have been mentally comparing the present situation to the "West Wing" treatment, because it's been my impression that this current bunch is so focused on their attempts to fully accomplish their o…
"I understand they supply a good amount of electricity to New England"
Surely that can't be right- president Cow Pie just told us that there's nothing that we need from Canada.
