How many times does a team that plays in the NFL face a game where a win could have a debilitating effect on the team for years to come? Unless, of course, you actually believe that Bill Callahan being the Redskins' head coach for this year and beyond would be a positive development.
Some on the left are angry, if not apoplectic, that conservatives are turning the tables on them and co-opting one of their own tactics against liberal policies. But turnabout, as they say, is fair play: Self-styled "progressives," it seems, aren't the only ones who can unilaterally decide which laws they will or will not enforce and/or comply with.
Why the rush for impeachment ("Dems scrambling for impeachment vote by Christmas: 'We must move swiftly'" Web, Dec. 4) ? Is the weight of President Trump's "high crimes" about to sink the republic? Or are Democrats beginning to comprehend that the impeachment circus, directed by manifestly partisan politicians, is a self-made trap?
When our country gives foreign aid to another country, it is frequently done in an effort to affect the foreign country's policies. We have historically tried to eliminate human-rights abuses and improve living conditions and policies with such aid.
What could taste better than white truffles or gianduja chocolates? Both are specialties of Turin, an elegant baroque city, the first capital of a unified Italy, consistently overlooked by tourists. Its center has narrow streets opening onto beautiful squares.

"Medicare for All." The disappearance of private health insurance. A Planned Parenthood pink scarf at her inauguration. An end to the Electoral College. These are just some of the promises daffy Sen. Elizabeth Warren is bringing to the presidential table. Merry Christmas. Warren's making out her loon list of giveaways.
Hillary Clinton may be many things -- former senator, former State Department secretary, former first lady, former failed presidential candidate, former email erasing expert. And so on and so forth. But what she isn't is a lesbian.
Ron Rivera won't be the only recycled NFL coach on the market, but Redskins might be better off sitting out this round of musical chairs.
'Tis the season for holiday hopes, but Democrats in Washington may have gotten too greedy with their political wish list. Just as leaders of Congress' blue party eagerly launched their closing arguments in favor of impeaching President Trump for allegedly wielding the nation's foreign policy apparatus for personal gain, TVs from coast to coast displayed the president rocking the NATO summit in London for the good of the red, white and blue. Never-Trumpers pinning their impeachment hopes on convincing Americans not to believe their own eyes is a wish that would make Santa Claus roll his baby blues.
