Must have been a Cuban idiom, as my second Spanish teacher was a Cuban attorney who had fled Castro in 1959 and settled in Selma, Alabama. My first was a tough Puerto Rican guy who had clawed his way out of poverty in the South Bronx and became a teacher for the DOD schools in England. Then there was Lupe from South Zarzamora Street in San Antonio.

Is is any wonder that my Spanish is...um...colorful at best?

This past weekend, Donna Brazile wrote some opinion piece about how the GOP can pick itself up again. I'm sure that I'd appeared a gobemouche reading that torrent of patronizing claptrap. I just recall thinking that if Donna Brazile advising the GOP is akin to Herr Goebbels handing out free train tickets to Germany's hated minorities.

Al Gore is the prototypical globalmuncher - eating all the world's power, money, energy, calories and total fats.

The Mets could have used a gobemouche to swallow up this simple infield fly on Friday. As a Yankee fan for the last 56 of my 61 years, I turned the television off in disgust while A-Rod's pop up was still in the air. It wasn't until the next morning that I learned of Luis Castillo's drop, and that two Yankees had scored to win the game. Yogi was right, as usual: It ain't over 'til it's over.

A++ Kirsten Powers actually was level headed about things and pointed out that the pubs time in the wilderness, searching for a leader is very similar to what the dems went through in 2000, no more, no less.

No--you misunderstood. The Yankees won after the Mets' Castillo dropped the ball.
