WASHINGTON — And sometimes, life imitates farce.
WASHINGTON — What is this, middle school? I was all set to sit down and write about women in politics, and applaud Tuesday’s results, when off pops the new Republican nominee for senator from California, Carly Fiorina, with a comment that takes you back to the cattiness of the school cafeteria.
To my dear friends and patients of my Lopez and San Juan Island communities (Orcas and Shaw please don’t feel left out, it’s just I don’t know as many of you.)

WASHINGTON — Has Sarah Palin learned anything since she was plucked from obscurity almost two years ago? Not that I can tell.

WASHINGTON — I am so going to miss Justice Stevens.
WASHINGTON — It isn’t easy being a caucus of one.
WASHINGTON — The public is zero for seven at the Supreme Court this term.
WASHINGTON — There is something weird going on in the Republican Party when Oklahoma Sen. Tom Coburn is the voice of reason.
WASHINGTON — My heart aches for the parents of Phoebe Prince, the 15-year-old Massachusetts high school student who committed suicide in January after being relentlessly bullied at school and online.
