1. Having sat through the Republican debate 'crap' this AM....three observations: (1) I did speed-mute with Chris Christie.....I just don't have the stamina to listen to his BS anymore. (2) Nikki Haley didn't come off as someone that I'd trust enough to buy a used-car from. (3) Vivek slaughtered the folks on stage, that GOP 'boss' gal, and Mr Holt from NBC. Otherwise, it was marginal entertainment.
2. Air Force went to Congress and asked them to establish a 2-mile 'buffer-zone' around each nuke missile silo. Heck of a lot of farm property involved. The logic of a 2-mile zone versus a 1-mile zone? Never explained.
3. All this BS over voter-ID? You ever noticed that no one has ever done a realistic study over who lacks such an ID? I suspect if you walked around the state of Alabama....meeting up with each resident over the age of 18....you'd find fewer than 1,000 people in the state in this situation.
