Last year our mayor got a taxpayer-paid trip to Africa. This year it is to China. Why did he think he had any business going there to meet with the Chinese about Hawker Beechcraft? Why isn’t he trying to stop the sale? Isn’t there an American company that could buy it?
How about the Kochs spend $1.79 billion and buy Hawker away from the Chinese? Now that would save America.

Thank you to Felix Baumgartner for showing us that the adventuring spirit still lives.
College and high school football advances education much like bullfighting advances agriculture.
If the Kansas City Royals and the Kansas City Chiefs were minor league teams, would they do any better in their respective leagues?
Earlier in the year, a friend suggested that the Kansas City Chiefs should suit up Len Dawson. I told him that was crazy. Now I’m not so sure.
