Little known fact. Neil Diamond and Barbara Streisand were in the same choral group in Brooklyn in high school.

Ronald McNair, Mission Specialist was on Challenger. It is preposterous to claim racism here. NASA, with a really limited budget spends a fortune on training. Absolutely no way they did this without cause.

Twenty six years and one day ago, a new strategy of warfare was introduced, and we are never going back.

Dead wrong. There is nothing in Carter's economic performance that indicated any wisdom on economics. No economic skill. No military skill. No political skill. Cost us money. Cost us lives. Cost us prestige.

Not to quibble, but Paul Volcker at the independant Fed is far more responsible than Reagan. While it happened on Reagan's watch, the Volcker recession, brought about by keeping rates that the Fed could control high, is what changed the course. Reagan constantly fought for spending cuts, and didn't get them, resulting in his repeated calls for the line item veto. To get his military budgets approved, he signed off on increased spending. He had the right idea, but Volcker was the single cause of the end of Jimmy Carter's "misery index."

After a good long time in this country, this economy, this political system and this media system, I have come to one undeniable conclusion. The Democratic party will never be exposed for its bad ideas, bad history, bad plans and bad performance. They will continue to exist and thrive because they play to very basic human views. Someone is screwing you. Your problems are not of your own doing, and I can help you by legally stealing from the bad people who are succeeding. It's not you....It's them. And to inoculate myself, I am no Trump supporter. That was Ford.

Because they're smarter. Destroy San Francisco, because you're smart.

Really good weather. Really good geography. Unbelievably stupid government being run by unbelievably stupid people. The bottom claim trumps the top two. An idiotic situation, the evidence of which is the amount of human urine and excrement on the streets of San Francisco, the town that I dated and married my wife.

They tried that with me for two years. I left after living there for 13 years. A year after leaving, they billed me for that full calendar your of income taxes, plus penalties. I told them I sold my house and there were countless real estate records available, per their code, to prove that. They demanded my current states income tax return, my full IRS return with all schedules, and said they would continue to assess penalties until I paid. I sent them the required returns, at great waste of time and expense. Three months later, I was on a trip and they called and informed my wife the new tax levy plus penalty, which amounted to a very significant sum of money. My wife was in a tizzy. I called Sacramento and spent three hours talking to them. Finally, I got to one guy who said "Oh yea, we got all that and you're off the hook," or words to that effect. I asked him why he didn't inform me of that weeks ago, and he said "We don't inform individuals when their appeals are approved, only when they're not." Can't stand the place.

It's what they have after an impeachment primary. It will take some time for Ms. Clinton to designate the winner though, so we have some time. My suggestion would be to hold the primary during the Pro Bowl, because nobody on earth watches that.

You clearly know that I am talking about accusing him of treason based on his behavior as a POW. Frankly, I am not interested in this "boot" vector.

He is certainly not a hero, but neither is he guilty of treason. Jeremiah Denton and James Stockdale were heroes. Calling him a hero is an overstatement. Calling him treasonous is contemptible.

And they would be just that......"Made Up."

I think the attempted sullying of McCain with regard to his POW experience is contemptible.

Oprah's becoming a Republican?

I'm here to learn. Just hadn't heard of that one, and who knows?

Oh. Since there is no such command, I was wondering who you meant.

What exactly is "US air command?"

And yet the hair trigger Trump didn't respond.

Trump is a goof, but Haiti should have been taken over by an international force years ago, strictly for humanitarian reasons.

The force behind breaking that inflation was Paul Volcker at the Fed. He and Reagan used to go at it all the time, but I always had a feeling Reagan was winking at him. Either way, it worked.

I have never compared anyone to Trump. I don't know how you came up with that. I didn't vote for the man, and never would. Regardless, you are grossly wasting your time on Oprah. She isn't smart. She understands little. She is incredibly rude and dismissive, and has done things that are clearly racist, and that's just what I know. She doesn't have anywhere near the mental competence to be president or pick a staff that would be in the best interests of our country. You, sir, need to know what's out there, and there is plenty.

Contrasting every potential candidate with Trump is a fool's errand. We can do better. And Oprah's "brain" has never been tested. How she treats others has been on display for decades though, and it aint good.

It generally isn't their only weapon. They play pretty decent half course offense as well. Syracuse plays exceptional zone. While they are certainly not an offensive powerhouse, they are an extremely successful program since Bennett, and they aren't going to go out and get someone they don't feel would fit.

Things change slowly. Virginia has been a tough place to recruit national level high school scorers. Very high and uncompromising academic standards. A lot of emphasis on defense. I've watched them practice a couple times and his system is ingrained before they ever see the court in a game. Red shirt everybody. But, little by little they are getting better shooters, and NBA success is aiding recruiting. Malcolm Brogdan being named the steal of the draft and NBA rookie of the year was a positive thing, but he's a special kid. Anyway, the ACC is tough schedule and they always go into mid March a little tired and without great depth, and it catches up to them.
