Oh yeah! That's kind of fun to think about. May not be a very good idea in practice.

There's farms and forests and mountains and lakes and more, many at cooler altitudes than the Sonoran Desert.

I edited my first comment to help give a little more info but to your point, his statement has absolutely nothing to with anything. just some borderline nonsense-cruelty.. basically I kung-fu kicked the "magic" diss wand out of his hand, caught it in the air as it was coming back down, and directed a couple blasts right back at him to say, "please stop with your trifling nonsense.."

Wow. Her high-school track coach. That's terrible.

Altho as Tango says above, it stinks that with that background, she's cool with the pussy-grabber.

Also too, that WSJ article mentions in passing that she was sexually harassed in the Air Force. If I had daughters, I would do everything in my power to dissuade them from military service. It seems like a cesspit of danger for women.

Also three, check out some of the comments to that article (these four are consecutive):

"Does she have a stained blue dress?""This is journalism?""We don't care.""These sort of decades-old allegations are impossible to evaluate."

Sorry, Ms. McSally, but you cast your lot with the right-wingers, and those are the attitudes they have toward sexual assault.

I’ve been suggesting we have Dem operatives in the Republican Party for a while, like they clearly have. This would also work, and make us an industry leader in AI tech.
