Two from DeCoster
Here, dealing with the Easy-Bake Oven making the National Toy Hall of Fame.
EBO was a great toy. But we quickly worked our way through their crappy mixes, so there was a limit to what non-food our parents were afflicted with. (We tended to pig it down ourselves in any case.) We warmed Vienna sausages, we made hot fruit compotes, we baked up Jiffy mixes (along with Karen, another great thing from Michigan). We tried to invent chocolate pizza, but never quite got it down. Pretty soon we graduated to The Real Thing.
Then, along with a lot of other libertarians, she's doing the Gridlock Dance. That would work, if we had divided government. But on domestic policy, the differences between Mr. "Compassionate Conservative" and the Dems are pretty minor. And Karl Rove must have stolen his veto pen, and only gave it back once (Well, why not? Rove gets blamed for everything anyway. Since the Diebold machines are all rigged, Rove must have engineered a Democratic vitory to discredit the Democrats for 2008.)
