It's a conundrum, because Wolf Blitzer is a God-tier name on the level of Dick Trickle so it would be sad if he went away.

To put this into context, I believe he was getting his rear end whooped by Andy Richter. Who, to be fair, is not a fool by any stretch, but is hardly someone you think of when you're considering who would be amazing at Jeopardy.

fatalities for police officers are also probably only as high as they are due to their large amounts of time spent driving

people just assume that the cops are constantly being shot at or stabbed due to tv and movies

98 cops have died on duty this year for the following reasons:

Aircraft accident: 1
Animal related: 1
Assault: 2
Automobile accident: 15
Drowned: 2
Gunfire: 44
Gunfire (Accidental): 1
Heart attack: 6
Motorcycle accident: 7
Stabbed: 1
Struck by vehicle: 5
Vehicle pursuit: 3
Vehicular assault: 10


For translation, "automobile accident" means, generally, collision for which the cop was responsible, "vehicular assault" means car crash for which the cop wasn't responsible. "struck by vehicle" means walked into traffic.

The thing with Ana Navarro is that she isn't an utterly humorless Republican who is also not afraid to poo poo all over conservatives she disagrees with.

Also, she's probably conservative just because of her upbringing - she was born in Nicaragua and her parents gained Asylum to the United States after escaping the Sandinistas. I'd imagine that had an effect on her since she would have been a child at that time.

Omg, is the war on Christmas back on? :ohdear:

Which reminds me, sort of, a whole bunch of stores have pledged to stay closed on Thanksgiving Day. As someone who once worked retail, it's very cool that this is happening. No Best Buy, Wal-Mart or Target, obviously, but still a good step.

Of course, it probably just means there's going to be even more Black Friday stampedes than usual :smith:

Boy do I want to see the wall of conspiracy theories at this dude's house.

If Donald Trump's craziness and the obvious incompetency of the Republican Party weren't so obvious, I might be inclined to believe that the last month or so was indeed some sort of incredibly devious and incredibly complex conspiracy developed by Hillary Clinton to destroy the GOP, and greater conservative values. And then I would still vote for her.

Of course I'd vote for her! Imagine what kind of operations she could do with Russia or whoever if she could pull THAT off.
