Can you imagine anyone less Senatorial than the "Mom in Tennis Shoes", Patty Murray? And what does that expression say to you? Dumb? Or Dumber?

Rush the Irreplaceable: Upbeat, in his Own Words
I just realized one thing about Rush that I had never thought of before. I wonder if it has also occurred to the rest of Rush Limbaugh's loyal audience, that he is human, and he might not be around forever. I think most of us just took it for granted that, from noon to 3:00PM …

Ode to My Hero Rush Limbaugh-Updated
This is the saddest post I have ever written for this blog, which has been going since 2010. At the end of his three-hour radio program today, my Hero announced that he had been diagnosed with advanced lung cancer. This announcement shook me up, as you might imagine given the title of my blog. I …
Why is the so-called Mainstream Media ignoring the story of the century?
No, it's not the Partisan Impeachment of President Donald Trump. It's the Exit of Britain from the European Union (Brexit for short), which is to happen tomorrow. In the last election, Boris Johnson's Conservative Party won in a landslide, taking veto-proof control of Parliament, and flipping many districts that had voted Labour for generations. That …

I am a White, College-educated, Well-off, Suburban Woman…
And I support our duly-elected President Donald Trump. All of my classifications above are assumed NOT to support the President. That segment of society is assumed to be Leftist. That segment of society is assumed to be pro-abortion. I don't fit that mold either. [and I refuse to use the term "pro-choice" either. I prefer …

Local businesses are appealing to city government to improve conditions in their neighborhoods, so they are not confronted with drug deals, gang shootings, and …
This is Perfect. WA Senator proposes bill in Legislature to give Seattle what it asks for.
If you follow the Northwest news at all, you will be familiar with the story of the environmentalists behind the drive to remove dams on the Snake River, to improve habitat for endangered salmon. Never mind that removal of those dams would also result in the loss of many megawatts of clean, carbon-free energy production …
Winter Wonderland. It’s Snow-homish County! Updated Tuesday 1-14
The news media and local government have been talking about nothing else for the past few days, than the huge winter storm that was bearing down on us. We saw weather maps with swirls of clouds, and were admonished to "prepare for the storm" by laying in supplies of blankets, candles, flashlights, and food that …

2020 Year of the Rat (and the optometrist?)
In the Chinese Zodiac, 2020 is a Rat year. Now, most people don't have very nice associations with the Rat, since they bring to mind ideas like Bubonic Plague, Lab Rat, filth, vermin, rat traps, and "dirty rat". Rats are normally viewed as pests, and most of us would scream and run away if we …
