One Very Clear Memory I Have Of

One Very Clear Memory I Have Of College Is That I Never Learned Anything In The Big Lectures. I Have A Feeling I'd Have Done Even Worse If They'd Been On A Laptop Screen.

During The Obama Years, The Republicans Have Done An Unprecedented Amount Of Stonewalling On Cabinet-and-below Appointees. I Would Also Argue That Their War On Judicial Nominees Has Been Way Beyond What Went Before. Really, If The President Nominated God To Serve On The D.c. Court Of Appeals, Mitch Mcconnell Would Threaten A Filibuster.

Certainly Nancy Reagan Had An Extraordinary Effect On Her Husband. I'm Truly Not Sure That, Say, Laura Bush Had That Much Effect On The Bush Administration. She Certainly, You Know, Seems To Be A Nice Person Who I Think The Public Likes. But I Can't Really Put My Finger On Any Huge Impact She's Had.

At First, I Felt Bad Judging An Entire State By One County Political Official, But Then I Found Out Morrison Had Also Helped Screen Public School Textbooks, A Topic Which Is Another Chapter In My Book. The Alamo Is Managed By The Daughters Of The Republic Of Texas, A Group Whose Members Can Claim A Relative Who Was Living In Texas During The Revolution. The Fight Over Mismanagement Of The Alamo Has Been Going On For Years.

Nobody Gets To Grow Old In The America They Grew Up In.
