Just to be extra super clear, when Susan says the Democrat party is worried about "losing access to voters" due to needed improvements in voting security, I think a better way to say that is, they want more and more ballot harvesting and cheating.

When you learn about it and think it through, ballot harvesting is a really disgusting thing. They want three months to get ballots from people that have no interest or motivation to vote. Then it gets worse from there. This is no way to run a country. If you don't think about it enough, I think most people have it in their head that it's just aggressive get out the vote activity. And then the big problem is, the left always has more funds and people for this type of crap. What little I know about California and how the California GOP stuck it to the Democrats on this stuff is very interesting.

In the same week the Democrat justices were babbling about public policy and getting all of their facts wrong instead of talking about the constitution, my hard-core liberal brother-in-law announced that he doesn't know anything about public policy and he's never talking about it again.

Total PhD in a hard subject. Excellent schools. Everybody in his family is high IQ. They believe in collectivist belonging and collectivist action. The Democrat party can't exist without making more and more non-public goods, central planning and social problems. So they throw spaghetti at the wall and do whatever it takes to create social strife. Your basic Democrat loves it or falls for it. Then you have Republicans that think they can reincarnate Scoop Jackson somehow.

Worst drive?

3. Interstate 70, anywhere. Nonstop trucks.

2. Interstate 80, across Nebraska. The plain plain state. 1. Interstate 90, across South Dakota. Concrete block, sounds like a cat scan on wheels, sheer torture.

Everybody hates Interstate 80 in Nebraska. I've never minded it until you get to Colorado and that is incredibly tedious to me. I'm not sure why. I think the Nebraska part doesn't look like a total moonscape and they have decent services at decent intervals. It's not like that in Colorado. I've always thought far western Nebraska or far western South Dakota would be a good place to live if you had everything set up right.

I'm glad James had the same thought I did about former Vice President Biden's speech. When I heard the list, I too thought, do you want to be the Republican or Democrat, Democrat or Democrat, and Republican or Democrat. Biden's handler made you want to be the Republican.
