Two things?

I've read a theory that the two defecting Republicans were part of a McConnell power play that was meant to show Trump that he can force Pence to be the tie breaker whenever Yertle McTurtle wants. Not a big deal for cabinet appointees, but a clear "We won't be your rubber stamp if you keep fucking around."

Coke and Pepsi both run schemes where they pay for scoreboards in exchange for placing vending machines in schools. Every school where I have taught (7-12 English/Theatre; ten years experience) has entered into at least one of these deals. Advertising is effective, but the Super Bowl ads are nothing in comparison to…

I can't find anything like what you are describing when I search The Hill. There's an op-ed from a Hispanic Chamber of Commerce guy that praises Perry, but it doesn't walk anything back.

I have a dead, cremated cat who would be a better Sec. of Ed. than DeVos.

It really is sort of astounding.

Just a little FYI for the folks reading at home:

I thought Brittany Murphy died from the flu.

There are a lot of primary care physicians who just throw shit at depression/anxiety/adhd without any sort of understanding of what they are doing. I'm a big proponent of better living through chemistry — adult ADHD and chronic depression mean that meds make my life substantially better — but even though I'm also…

It depends on the person and his or her specific reaction. Strattera works well for me, but I was fucking flying on Vyvanse.

Pretty sure companies have some say in what they pay for and at times even insurance issues.

No, but we had that Sunsphere Wig Shop until Bart knocked it over.

I think you've lost the spirit of genderless insults.

Yeah, but her dog was eaten by an alligator,
