CARLY FIORINA FOR PRESIDENT. Her speech the Reagan Library. The video is nearly an hour long. Her speech ends at the 27 minutes; the remainder of time is Q&A. Watch it all.

REBEL RECALL: Virginians told to turn in Confederate-themed license plates.

My bet is that almost none of the old plates will be turned in.

FROM MY EMAIL: It's a joke, obviously, but as with all jokes, there's an element of truth within it.

A social worker from a big city in Massachusetts recently transferred to the mountains of West Virginia and was on the first tour of her new territory when she came upon the tiniest cabin she had ever seen in her life. Intrigued, she went up and knocked on the door.

"Anybody home?" she asked.

"Yep," came a kid's voice through the door.

"Is your father there?" asked the social worker.

"Pa? Nope, he left before Ma came in," said the kid.

"Well, is your mother there?" persisted the social worker.

"Ma? Nope, she left just afore I got here," said the kid.

"But," protested the social worker, (thinking that surely she will need to intervene in this situation) "are you never together as a family?"

"Sure, but not here," said the kid through the door. "This is the outhouse!"

Government workers are so very smart. Aren't you overjoyed that they'll soon be handling all our financial, educational, and medical dilemmas?
