Just a week or so ago, MSNBC suspended Keith Olbermann for a vicious '2 days' for making political donations, and now MSNBC has struck agaim, suspending another news anchor, Joe Scarborough for another vicious '2 day' period. Wonder which days, Christmas and Easter?

There's a list of the most mismanaged charities from Charity Navigator. The amazing thing is most them are actually better at getting 'funds' to those in need more efficiently than most government entitlement programs. I remember a report that out of every dollar the government allocated for entitlement programs, 78 cents went for salaries/benefits/administrative costs and only 22 cents of every dollar actually got to a person who qualified for a program.

L-E headline: "Sen. Tom Whatley takes oath at Phenix City McDonald's" -- Of course, congratulations are in order, but you can't help but wonder whether he "got fries with that"?
---
L-E headline: "Ex-Parks and Recreation assistant director Cammy Currie says firing is retaliation for ‘perceived whistle blowing’ " -- Hmmm, wouldn't you think that Mimi Woodson would at least shout out that Currie was a victim of another "public hanging" just to show she's consistent?
---
Congrats Marshall Middle School! Shows what a leader like Melvin Blackwell means to a school.
---
From L-E's "Today in history": "On this date: In 1789, New Jersey became the first state to ratify the Bill of Rights." -- Wow! and after 220+ years, electing Chris Christie as governor will entitle the citizens to actually realize their rights.
---
L-E headline: "Pilots to be exempt from some airport checks" -- Once again, a union demonstrates its "we got ours,, public be damned" philosophy. Fits right in why potUS Imam-a is union friendly.
---
Roll on, Carver!
---
It's really sad when a 5-5 team says it has its 'eye on a bowl'. We have way to many bowls!
---
Boise State versus UGA in Chik-fil-A kick off game. Hmmm, wonder what color the 'grass' will be?
---
L-E headline: "New number with new team for Uggla" -- Ooops, my bad! Thought SEC Commissioner Slive had decided U of GA must rename its mascot to comply with his truth mandates.
---
Mercer football. Now that's a thought that should get academia excited. A small college Vanderbilt.
---
So Northwestern and Illinois will play towards only one endzone because the other endzone is 'too close' to a wall at Wriggly Field. Guess none of the players will ever play "Arena Football" (or hockey for that matter).
