Grover Norquist is Zach Galifianakis Look Alike

Ever wonder who this Grover Norquist no-tax pledge guy is? How can he have so much influence and seems to have many Republicans more committed to honoring his no new taxes pledge than committed to honoring their marriage vows?

I did a web search and found some photos. And he looks surprising like Zach Galifianakis. Look - compare the photos.

Put a pair of glasses on Zach, trim the beard and hair a bit and he's Grover. Kind of scary. So maybe Grover invited some Congressmen and Senators to his place for a drink and slipped "roofies" in their Jägermeisters. Then they signed the pledge. How else could it have happened?

Department of the Obvious - Airlines

So I hear that the airlines are concerned that it is taking too long to board passengers onto planes. There are delays. They are losing time, time is money. So, didn't they help create this problem by charging fees for baggage? More passengers haul their bags onto the planes, waste a lot of time cramming suitcases, etc. into the overhead bins. There isn't enough room! It takes extra time! Duh!! How much money and time must be lost in delays before it is not worth the revenue gained from baggage check fees?
