For some reason, news this week makes me think  Bubba woke up, screamed "Hey y'all!  Watch this!", cooked up a chicken-fried steak with a six pack, flew a Confederate flag from the pickup, headed to Walmart, and decided to be on the tee-vee.  There's a distinct regional flavor this time.

I say this from Texas...

There are now multiple states deliberately ignoring the school order.  The Fed needs to begin applying some pain or their order is meaningless.
