What do you mean by "really bad job"?
They cancelled school for that perverted racist blowhard and he owes the money to the hard-working taxpayers of that district. If I were a parent there, I would be raising holy hell about his appearance.

Some of you might remember Judge Pezze's husband, Tom Balya, who served as a county commissioner. I believe he used to post on DU. My sincere condolences to him and their family.

He is so awesome.
Fabulous speech, just like when he was campaigning in 04 and 08. God love him, he's the best.

Today felt different. I could start to see it in the rearview mirror.
I was way too involved with every detail over the weekend and through the second debate. I am starting to let go now.

Today's Google Doodle: The Gregorian Calendar
Google is celebrating the 434th anniversary of the creation of the Gregorian calendar with a new Doodle.
Users who visit Google's homepage Tuesday will see artwork depicting paper calendar sheets for the dates of Oct. 3rd and 4th, written in roman numerals, between the spelling of Google.
As the internet giant explains, the Gregorian Calendar was created in 1582 in order to realign the Julian calendar previously created by Julius Caesar in 46 B.C. as it was 10 days behind the seasons of the year.
