According to Fox News' E.D. Hill, the fist-bump we routinely see Major League baseball players exhange 25 times every game may be a terrorist fist bump.
Since the connection is close enough for the responsible, rational cable news that informs our nation, perhaps it is time for us all to be on the lookout for terrorist connections in our day-to-day relations that we would have seen no basis for at all before. After all, it's not like Fox News aren't patriots or anything. They do so much work to inform the nation, that they have to be on good terms with the FBI and so on, and therefore wouldn't irresponsibly misinform us about terrorism.
Think that's just air you're breathing? It may be terrorist air!!

Terry C, I have some faith that Obama will do so, but short of a Republican collapse in the fall there's still not going to be enough votes in the Senate to get the Republican roadblocks moved. My biggest hope there is that some of them will see the lights of the on-coming train and shift left a little.
Not only does Obama have to clean up the mess in the outside world, he also has to clean out all the partisans in the infrastructure and get reasonable judges found, and a few other things like that.

David S. Broder: You'll have to forgive me, but I am reluctant to see every big policy dispute turned into a criminal or impeachable affair. There needs to be accountability but there also needs to be proportionality. This country is engaged in two wars and has serious, serious domestic problems. To stop everything and attempt to impeach and remove a president who has less than a year to serve would not strike me as the best use of our energy. And for what? So Dick Cheney can be president?

Which brings us to the bigger problem. Equine Acquisitions’ former trainer, Greg Martin, had his license revoked in 2005 for using an illegal performance-enhancing drug on a company horse. Its current trainer, Richard Dutrow, is even more notorious for pushing the envelope. He has a list of violations longer than most anyone else’s in the history of the sport.
No one has seriously accused him of doing anything untoward with Big Brown, but he’s been fined or suspended for doping in each of the last eight years, including two instances in January. The Association of Racing Commissioners International report on Dutrow reveals 72 offenses since 1979, 13 of them related to drugs.
Broder was considered a liberal in the 60's. 70's a moderate, 80's a reactionary, 90's a schmuck, now considered a sucker of Rove's cock.

I said this after Kentucky: as someone who isn't particularly 'horsey', but has been to plenty of meetings in Britain, the culture surrounding American racing is more than a bit fucked up,
It's BALCO for horses.
That's not to say that British racing is squeaky-clean, but I never once went to a turf meeting on the flat expecting to see the screens come out.
Weirdly, I suspect that if off-track betting were legal across the US, it would do more to keep racing honest.

You're welcome... one of the most unforgettable moments of my sports-viewing life. Maybe only Bob Beamon's record-smashing long jump in Mexico City, 1968, can rival it.
At the finish, he won by 31 lengths (breaking the margin-of-victory record set by Triple Crown winner Count Fleet, who won by 25 lengths) and ran the fastest 1 1/2 miles on dirt in history, 2:24 flat, which broke the stakes record by more than 2 seconds. Secretariat's world record still stands, and in fact, no other horse has ever broken 2:25 for 1 1/2 miles on dirt.

But then these are people who, unlike the Democrats, seem oblivious to the reality of 12 million illegal immigrants living permanently in our society, with no hope of attaining citizenship and stepping up to the promise -- and responsibility -- it entails. They find fault with the patiently negotiated congressional compromises in legislation supported by President Bush -- even Romney and Giuliani, who have previously supported such bills.
The catering to the know-nothing wing of their party by so many of these men is a stunning indictment of their readiness to lead 21st-century America, a more diverse and dynamic country than their perspective seems to embrace.

Ralphie - I have a childhood memory from about 1972 - strong storm; my dad pulling in the garden hose from the front yard - and looking east towards the Airport at a funnel cloud.
The one that hit the Airport and St. Francis in '98 wasn't strong, but it did rattle nerves.
What most rattled me was the Stoughton tornado. I was up in the 9th floor in Madison - looked out my window and saw a slowly swirling cloud mass that almost lookied like the mouth of Sauron. Ten minutes later, I looked southeast and saw the f3 tornado as it was blasting through the north side of Stoughton - where it killed one person.

Possible tornado passing just north of the Wisconsin Dells. Warm sun should ignite more storms later today, best severe risk comes just south/east of Twin Cities
Tornado watch issued for far southeastern MN and all of southwestern/central WI until 8 pm Saturday evening, conditions ripe for isolated "supercells" capable of large hail and a few tornadoes
Computer models indicate a wet, unsettled weekend...warm today (low 80s) with strong T-storms later in the day, best chance south/east of the Twin Cities
