Your Morning Sift

Good morning.

Grab your coffee and settle in. Your morning Sift is up.

A- Should there be a state for gun owners? Obalesque comments.

B- Are the Dolphins moving to LA, wonders PhinPhanatic.

A team that can’t sell out the stadium? Check. An owner who loves the celebrity lifestyle? Check. A stadium that can’t get the funding to renovate? Check.

While most would say so what, the issue at hand is that AEG is in the process of building the brand new stadium in Los Angeles for a football team that doesn’t yet exist.

C- Go Hydrology! finds evidence of "snow" in the swamp.

D- Culture Designers shares some commentary on yesterday's events in Washington, DC.

The VA Senate is split 50-50. Today, one Democrat was absent. Sen. Henry Marsh, a 79-year-old civil rights veteran, was in Washington DC for the Obama inaugural. That’s when the Republicans pounced: they introduced and rammed through without notice a redistricting bill that would take the 20-20 Senate and make it, by some calculations 27-13 by packing as many Democrats as possible into a minority of the districts.
