07:36 – As expected, the Republicans caved. They got nothing, literally, out of the “deal”. Less than nothing. It may finally be time to cry havoc and let slip the dogs of war.
11:26 – Well, that’s interesting. I just got email from an MIT science professor who had nice things to say about our science kits and books, and encouraged me to enter this science kit competition. Our current science kits are ineligible because they’re already commercially available, but the earth science kit I’m working on now is eligible for submission as a prototype/work-in-progress science kit.
Bob, your link is broken.

Fixed, thanks.
I’m glad I cashiered my Republican registration when Romney ran. I still get weekly emails from the RNC on down even after I’ve told them multiple times to fuck off.
At least McConnell got almost $3 Billion for his KY project. Fucking whore. We all have to pay for it now.
Hey, we got the Kentucky payoff! All is not lost!
BTW, I am extremely pro infrastructure. This country runs on cheap energy and easily accessible transportation. Most of the highway improvements in the Houston Area, the fastest growing large city in the USA, have come from earmarks. I would like to see more earmarks to keep Houston moving. And the rest of the USA of course.
Rush was talking about the Republicans in the Senate resetting the base budget back to 2008 for future baseline budgeting and that this is a very good thing ™. I do not understand why though. I plan to read his article this afternoon and see what he said in total.
I want to say “good luck with that”, but I think that expression is used only sarcastically these days. So, uh, I hope you do well.
“I’m glad I cashiered my Republican registration when Romney ran.”
Roger that; I dumped mine in ’98 up here when our Repub senator got honest and moved to the other side where he’d belonged all along. In the national elections I’ve voted for Pat Buchanan if he was on the ballot or I wrote him in if not, since the first time he ran. Now I’m all done with that crap except for the town here, where I can clothesline and stomp mofos that piss me off right in front of my house.
