It could help prevent heart disease.
Probably stroke, too.
Shootout In East Lansing
Man, Gardiner is getting absolutely no protection. I’m losing track of number of sacks.
[Update a couple minutes later]
OK, they just showed the stat. Twelve allowed in season to date. Four in today’s first quarter. Over twenty yards negative yardage. Fortunately, Spartans can’t move the ball much either, except for one big running play.
[Update late in the third quarter]
I think Michigan has about minus seventy yards on the ground.
[Update a few minutes later]
OK, Michigan’s down sixteen. Hard to see them coming back unless either they or the Spartans suddenly become a different team.
Public Schools
Who is stupider? It’s pretty tough to choose. But this is a point I hadn’t considered:
…as smarter people abandon public schools, the dumber ones who remain have more impact. They should be subjected to public humiliation, in the hopes that they’ll learn, or at least serve as an example to the others.
I wonder if we aren’t already in a death spiral in that regard.

There’s nothing “liberal” about them.
Wiley Obama
Not a sooper genius:
Obviously he wouldn’t want to delay Obamacare. But that decision was out of his hands due to his administration’s incompetence. The only choice before him was whether he would get the blame for the delay or if the Republicans would.
Why Obama didn’t do this and why it didn’t occur to him are good questions. Hubris obviously played a role, as it does in nearly everything this White House does. But the best answer is he didn’t know how terrible things were over at HHS. In other words, the chess master didn’t even know what pieces he had on the board, which is usually not something we associate with chess masters. It’s something we associate with people who don’t even know how to play the game.
The media always overhypes the intelligence of Democrats, but this guy’s in a league of his own in that regard. On the other hand, when you’re called “inept” by Jimmy Carter, it ought to sting.
Phony IRS Scandal Update
Lois Lerner violated the law by giving confidential information to the Federal Election Commission.
This was no doubt just one of many things that she didn’t want to talk about when she pled the Fifth.
The Gerri Willis Interview
It’s up now at the Fox Business web site.
Obama Lied
…healthcare died. A history.
Old story line: “Obama didn’t lie!”
New story line: “Obama had to lie to us for our own good!”
[Update a few minutes later]
71% believed that Obama knew rates would skyrocket for many insurance plans. Of course he did. That was much of the idea.
Plus this: When fraud is legal. “Under socialism, there is no such thing as consumer protection.”
The government does many things that would get others thrown in jail.
Gerry Willis Show
I’m going to be on a little after 6 PM Eastern, with Frank J. Fleming. I’ll be on camera, but he’ll just be on the phone, because apparently they don’t have any cameras in Idaho. Or they’re afraid he’ll break it with his visage, or something. If you’re wondering if I’m still in my Halloween getup, no, I always look like that.
