Pats

Let me touch of two really bad things this afternoon. First, the Patriots handed in one of the most dreadful performances of the Belichick era. Just really bad football. The kind of football that leads teams to not win things like championships.

Our receivers were bad. They couldn't get open. Anybody could cover them. I could cover them. I'm covering them right now.

Our DB's were dreadful. They can't cover anybody. They can't cover me. I'm open right now.

The Fins knew just where to hit us to inflict pain and points. Nick Saban knows Belichick's plans as well as anyone, and he was ready for them. What this game showed was that this Pats team is not ready for quality opponents. They were not ready to play at a high level.

The other really bad thing is a bit more fun. That is, the 109th Congress is officially done, after working the fewest days in Congressional history. Not only is the current executive the worst president in history, but this congress is clearly the lowest of the low. These guys worked fewer days than the "Do-Nothing Congress" that got their enemy, Harry Truman, re-elected.

This is the congress that allowed our treasury to be sacked by cronies and insiders. They've allowed the executive to set up a dictatorship. They've allowed - well, everything. They've done no oversight.

Even when they stumbled on something (when it was in the paper, say) and asked about it, they just shugged it on. The odious Arlen Spectre said that the bill to eliminate habeus corpus for suspected bad-intenders 'set up back 900 years' to befor the Magna Carta - and then voted in favour of the bill.

These guys are a moral rot on the world, and history will remember them as the collection of lazy miscreants who allowed a dictator to set up shop in the White House.

Goodbye, Miami. Good riddance 109th.
