No, I think the contract went to Mr. DiFi.

Why Senator Warren is Wrong on Student Loans

Why is it that Senator Warren feels that it necessary that a large segment of those who took out student loans and then went to school to study some fringe humanities degree program and now find that their degree doesn't transfer to corporations rushing to offer them employment should be subsidized by taxpayers and students who majored in fields where a degree is a marketable commodity?

One of These Things is Not Like the Other

The thing that isn't being discussed is that Gay marriage isn't the goal. It is simply a tool to advance the agenda of adoption by homosexuals, because obviously all marriages will have equal standing before the law. If marriage was the goal then same sex unions with equal protection to all of the same benefits as the state grants married couples would be good enough. The fact that is isn't leads me to believe that this is just another step.
Just a thought: Why is it o.k. for Starbucks & Ben & Jerrys to hold political views and contribute to various causes as those views dictate, yet when Chick-Fil-A does the same thing it is seen as a "hate crime"? Where in the constitution does it give the government the right to deny free speech based on the political correctness? And the left wonders why people view them as hypocritical thugs.

Just another reason to privatize the Postal Service. Any entity controlled by political hacks will always pander for votes rather than seeking a competitive advantage.

It's time to lay off half of the Postal Service work force and deliver the mail every other day. The workers would still work 6 days a week, however on MWF they would deliver to one route and on TTH & S they would deliver to the 2nd route. Poastal workers like all union workers have confused having a job with a right to security. In today's economy mail delivery is rapidly becoming as relevant as buggy whip manufacturers in a world dominated by automobiles. The taxpayers can no longer afford to subsidize the labor contracts that the politicians have forced on us.
Upon completion of your 13 year sentence (have to inculde Kindergarten) you will be issued a diploma by the state printed on Charmin. That way the diploma will be useful for something.

All-Time All-Stars: Part II

I agree that the players from the Negro Leagues like Josh Gibson & Satchel Paige should get consideration in any discussion of the greatest ballplayers ever. And there is also the fact that several players have contributed to a team's success with their defensive skills. A player like Roberto Clemente (who happens to be my all time favorite player) comes to mind. How many triples did he turn into doubles just because the batter respected his arm? While it is true that you can't compare players from different eras due to things like expansion, night games, the designated hitter, and relief pitching it is still a fun exercise to try to choose the all time greats.
