As a Cowboy fan, I’m with you in football spirit, but maybe it actually helps push his message IRL.

No doubt an inflection point, but I’m not sure Newt’s the whole cause. The Southern Strategy, war on education (“manufactured crisis”), think tanks, Fox News, Haley Barbour’s one-party lobbying strategy, Atwater and Rove — and, biggest of all, the sea of selfish GOPers who let it all happen.

Sometimes, it doesn't seem to be getting much better, which is really bad because North Carolina is a beautiful, very liveable state with an incredible diversity of people and ideas. It's been hijacked by the most egregious gerrymandering in the country, making it essentially a one-party state.

It really sucks that the founder of this company -- which offers a great deal of promise and an exciting way to approach zero-emissions personal transportation -- is worse than the My Pillow guy at this point.

1.) Soft - a 2015 Sport with cloth top. Last of the NC series. (And, alas, only a five-speed.)
2.) Yes, and I think some of those light-sport want to maximize cruise *and* fit the requirements of the category (low stall speeds) and the tips help.

1.) Agreed. Trust me. ;)
2.) On that particular light sport (AT-4/Gobosh), the claim is that it brings it down to LSA stall speed limits. The light sport rule says the planes must stall at a max of 45 knots.

To Schmidt's point, it is difficult to imagine any foreign power doing more damage to the U.S. than Rupert Murdoch has.

Yes, six cylinders. Every time I review one of those old 0-300 log entries, I think the same. ;)
That said, fans of the 0-300 talk about how smooth the six cylinder is. I hope to find out at some point!

I trained on a 1977 with a 160hp Lycoming I like a lot. (I still rent it occasionally.) That 1960 version has the 145hp 0-300 so I wonder a little what I would think of that. It’s sharp with that fastback though. ;)

Another quote:
"Think about that statement — the top official at Fox News choosing falsehood over fact, for the sake of ratings. Fox News viewers, the correspondence confirms, get 'disgusted' when their favorite network stops feeding them conspiracy theories."

You can see why I'd like the major water feature of our metro area renamed for Eudora Welty -- or, honestly, pretty much anyone else.
James Meredith might be an even better choice, and he's still with us to enjoy it!

I’m looking for something else on the why-notorious angle, though.
Hint: Think Jan 6th-ish.

Seems like VP to me. She's a perfect fit for Trump, because she's willing to blame everyone but Trump for Trump's behavior.
'He deserves the truth. Is he hearing the truth?' Haley told me. 'I don’t think certain people around him are telling him the truth.'

Why Nikki Haley will never be president
Tim Alberta is one of America’s best political reporters. His profile of Nikki Haley in Politico is as fine a profile of a political candidate for the American presidency that has ever been written. In fact, it astonishes with regards to its revelations of Haley’s cynicism and self-delusion. Alberta..
