"The things people say are not meant to be measured on the scale of truth. They are only the signs by which one indicates which team one belongs to, like the identification ‘friend-or-foe’ signals that warplanes emit" --Herbert Stein (on Sunday talk shows)
I'm guessing the list of people who WANT to go to hell isn't that long. "Go to hell" isn't "have a nice day, I wish you well".
“I'm a religious person, so in theory I go to heaven,” President Trump says, discussing what he thinks happens after death. “I don't want to go to hell.” cbsn.ws/4iJ55dC
I've been watching "From Russia with Love" tonight. One thing I hadn't picked up on before is how overdone the Bond theme(s) music is in the early films. In just about any scene that might be considered slow--Bond checking the hotel room--it blasts in.
There's political risk for Democrats in attempting to impeach & remove Trump. If Trump makes it clear that he won't stand in the way of their agenda the Democrats don't have to expend time/political capital & Trump avoids impeachment. A deal can be made.
Trump endorses an amnesty deal with Democrats, saying immigration maximalists are on the “pretty far right” and suggesting that illegals who have been in the US for 10-15 years should have an opportunity to stay.

If Bernie Sanders got some of his crackpot ideas passed with a narrow majority does anyone think Trump would veto them?
New England getting thoroughly trumped by Green Bay today. 42 points allowed and the game is still in the 3rd quarter.
Tom Brady just said of the NFC North "very good quarterback play from all those teams"
Vikings fans:
Anyone rooting for the field staff in this matchup should be banned from attending any NFL game for at least a year.
Michigan fires offensive coordinator:
"Per the terms of his contract, Beck is set to be owed up to $10.1 million. That's nearly $7 million in salary and nearly $3.1 million in retention bonuses."
And Carter's four years was probably crucial to Reagan making it to the White House.
OLD GUY’S CAUTION: Since Watergate comparisons of ‘74 & ‘26 are widespread, it’s worth remembering that after ‘74 anti-Nixon landslide, it was simply assumed Dems would win White House in ‘76. Despite major D advantages (unelected R POTUS who pardoned Nixon and was nearly denied R nomination—& much more), Carter only beat Ford 50-48%—and Electoral College nearly tipped to Ford. Two years is two eternities (esp. with Trump), and nothing is ever guaranteed. Choose wisely, Dems.

One may imagine her late majesty, looking down from the clouds and orchestrating a little joke at the expense of those stubborn colonists who compelled her first and final attendance of an American football game.
J.J. McCarthy: 127 yds passing, 6.7 avg, 82.6 rating (and injured). Maybe a little early to conclude that the Vikings made a huge mistake in giving up on him.
1. Saints uniforms today might be the worst I've seen all year.
2. On that fumble that essentially ended the Panthers v Broncos game it's pretty funny that there weren't any flags thrown.
