After much in depth research they have uncovered that the election is over and they cannot stop any Trump nominees. In fact the big Senate take over lost seats.

Absolutely. Trump will nominate a woman to replace her and the Dems will have to find a man that will claim that he was drinking in a bar 25 years ago and she tried to grope him while he was vulnerable after two beers. He has been suffering from PTSD ever since and.......

If the Dems were going to catch a break, the House is the smallest accomplishment possible. Any time any party controls at least one part of Congress, they can prohibit any legislation. No law can be passed without both houses passing the exact same bill. But... At this point there are obviously things that the GOP wants that will now not happen But.... nothing previously passed into law can be overturned either. Things like Pelosi’s promise to repeal the tax cut simply cannot happen. No new healthcare legislation can be passed with the GOP going along with it, etc. Both the Senate and the House will be ineffective for the next two years however.... The Senate was really for all the marbles. That loss could have been devastating for Trump and the GOP. The Senate, unlike the House, has Constitution authority independently. Had the GOP held the House and lost the Senate, it would have been really bad. All presidential appointments (Supreme Court, cabinet, other federal judges, ambassadors, etc.) and all treaties with other countries have to be approved by the Senate and only the Senate. There is no need to get consent from Pelosi and the House can stop nothing. So for the next two years Congress will be ineffective but Trump’s conservative lock on the Supreme Court (if Ginsberg or anyone else leaves for any reason in the next two years) will be for a generation to come and our tax break are locked in. So Mitch McConnell with control all appointments and Nancy Pelosi will control... gridlock. Not a great night for the Republicans but far from the devastating results that it could have been. Holding the Senate was very much the most important issue and the Republicans looked to have actually gained seats.

I am fairly certain that is what I said in my first post.

I am hopeful that the GOP holds or gains in the Senate. The House would be nice but the Senate is the key. They approve presidential appointments and treaties. The House has no say so in that process. Without the House controversial legislation (from Dems view) would cease but tax increases, gun control, SCOTUS, etc., would be safe.

The only ones that I know their school is WB and Central. None of that matters except that was why I was maki g the comments I still think that Louis was more like an interim HC and not looked at as the future of United. I think that he was probably done after this year no matter what they did. It was late in the process of getting a new coach and he was available.

911? The old cop and pilot in me makes me do some real head scratching and contemplating if true....

From the outside looking in and with no horse in the race.... I think that Louis was a low profile, good guy (not good ol’ boy) fill in with the turmoil of combining the schools and trying to hire their first coach. I told coworkers from Beaumont and before the season started that in my opinion Louis was one and done. Actually no one disagreed. With the likelihood of trying to combine coaches from Ozen and Central staffs and not letting an outside HC come in and bring in all new coaches (or at least OC and DC..... if thatwas done), Louis was seen as easing into the situation. I can’t imagine that he was ever seen as a long term solution to building a new and solid program. That will hopefully be done with the new coach after this first year of not only football but an entirely new combined school with claims (at least in forums such as this) of possible trouble between students of former (bitter?) rivals. In effect Louis might been seen as a fill in to get that first tough year out of the way and then return to his former life without much fanfare. But again, that is from the outside looking in with no inside knowledge whatsoever. Maybe Louis was the right guy at the right time for a tough situation. He wasn’t the future but a guy who put the train on the tracks for the new conductor to be named later.

Also in the same area was Simpson’s BBQ that my grandfather liked to go to.

Lying to Congress is perjury and a crime because the person is under oath.

I have read that a guy in Houston but grew up in Beaumont makes that style of links. Gerard’s also makes Patillo’s style bbq sauce. I think there have been many sleepless nights trying to figure out Jack Patillo’s original recipe. They claim to still make it but I think it has a lot more instant mix than the original. Gerard’s make a pretty good facsimile of the original.

I voted on Thursday. Against my own beliefs and in personal silent protest, I voted straight ticket for the only time in my life.
