Answer to yesterday’s puzzle: The lessons this life has planted in my heart pertain more to caring than crops, more to Golden Rule than gold, more to the proper choice than to the popular choice.

A man had 50 yard line tickets for the Super Bowl. As he sits down, a man comes down and asks if anyone is sitting in the seat next to him. “No,” he says, “The seat is empty.” “This is incredible,” said the man. “Who in their right mind would have a seat like this for the Super Bowl, the biggest sporting event in the world, and not use it?” He says: “Well, actually, the seat belongs to me. I was supposed to come with my wife, but she passed away. This is the first Super bowl we haven’t been to together since we got married in 1967.” “Oh, I’m sorry to hear that. That’s terrible. But couldn’t you find someone else – a friend or relative, or even a neighbor to take the seat?”. The man shakes his head. “No, they’re all at the funeral.”

Answer to yesterday’s puzzle: You’re alive. Do something. The directive in life, the moral imperative was so uncomplicated. It could be expressed in single words, not complete sentences. It sounded like this: Look. Listen. Choose. Act.

A sincere thanks to whoever is posting our stuff.
For the record, we welcome liberal commentators. Just don’t be a potty mouth, be relevant, don’t get personal, and, especially, don’t type in all caps.

Gen. Petraeus Resigns From CIA

Gen. David Petraeus, who may be the most respected man in the military, announced his resignation as head of the CIA, today, Nov. 9, citing an extra-marital affair.

Three days after the election the CIA director quits because he had a fling.
Sure. 
And our ambassador to Libya was killed because of YouTube video.
By the way, Mark Basseley Youssef the guy you made that video was sentenced to a year in prison after agreeing to a plea bargain. The plea bargain was made Nov. 7.
Voting is the best revenge.

GOP Still Rules Pa In 2012

GOP Still Rules Pa In 2012 — Despite the disaster of Tuesday, the Republicans will still control the State House possibly even picking up a seat.

Republican Thomas Sankey beat Mark McCracken to win the 74th District seat vacated by long-time incumbent Democrat Bud George in Clearfield County; and Sheamus Bonner conceded last night, Nov. 8, to long-time Republican incumbent Nick Micozzie in the 163rd District after a close election; leaving just the 39th District race between GOP incumbent Rick Saccone and David Levdansky and the 146th District race between Republican incumbent Tom Quigley undecided.
Incumbent parties won all other races. The party breakdown last year was 111-92 in favor of the Republicans.
The Democrats picked up three state senate seats being vacated by incumbent Republicans   Sens. Jeff Piccola of Dauphin County, Jane Earll of Erie County and John Pippy of Allegheny County, still leaving that body with a 27-23 Republican majority.  Note Piccola was not what you would call a Tea Party favorite.
Hopefully, these Republicans have the courage to start going after the Democrat tax-funded infrastructure in this state notably in our public schools — why should teachers get paid for union activity?  and the newspapers — why should we subsidize propaganda through legal advertising?
It should also be noted that the Republicans finally exorcised the ghost of John Murtha with Keith Rothfus’ victory over Mark Critz in the 12th Congressional District meaning that 13 of Pennsylvania’s 18 congressmen will be Republicans.
Don Adams of the Independence Hall Tea Party Association, which endorsed Rothfus, notes that all of its endorsed incumbent congressional candidates won in Pennsylvania  and New Jersey as did Pennsylvania State Senator Dave Argall who won his first full term in the 29th District.
