Inane commentary on a game that deserves far better

Jackass of the day: House Majority Leader Tom DeLay, who says in an upcoming TV interview (quoted in today's Roll Call): "A woman can take care of the family. It takes a man to provide structure. To provide stability."

You would think that in the 21st century, someone with views like that couldn't be one of the most powerful elected officials in the country. But then you'd think a lot of things...

If anyone is interested in starting a sheep-farm commune in New Zealand, please let me know. We can play hoops all afternoon (once chores are done). Sara will provide all the structure and stability while I sip local sauvingnon blancs and sample psychotropic herbs. Soon we will have forgotten all about Tom DeLay.
