Sali is one of the bigger crackpots in Congress, and has even managed to get most Republicans annoyed at him. When he was in the State Legislature, the then-Speaker threatened to throw him out of his office window, and some of his ‘colleagues’ protested — because the Speaker’s office was only on the third floor, and there were offices available on the fourth. (Ironically, that Speaker is now the Representative for Utah’s other Congressional District.)
When he won the Primary, it gave some Democrats hope we’d even pick up a Utah seat — but sadly it was not to be.

We've been soaking in the Bathtub for several months, long enough that some of the links we've used have gone to the Great Internet in the Sky.

My blog, Millard Fillmore's Bathtub, is a continuing experiment to test how to use blogs to improve and speed up learning processes for students, perhaps by making some of the courses actually interesting. It is a blog for teachers, to see if we can use blogs. It is for people interested in social studies and social studies education, to see if we can learn to get it right. It's a blog for science fans, to promote good science and good science policy. It's a blog for people interested in good government and how to achieve it.

The comments on that story at the other site disturb me more than the story. Where do they come up with this stuff?

Oops! IDAHO, not Utah. (Jim, write “Idaho is not Utah and vice versa’ on the blackboard 500 times.)
