荷兰猪明明是新大陆特有的家畜，为什么叫荷兰猪呢？

看起来中国山水画的散点透视，在西洋画里也能找到啊。看，像不像？ （Landscape with the Temptation of Saint Anthony by Roelant Savery, Getty Center）

奥尼尔、巴克利等人在演播室对着那五个人大喊：“放了雷阿伦！放了雷阿伦！”

加内特还真是在凯尔特人冠军队团聚环节搞了一张没有雷阿伦的五人照……

我还清楚记得，在2008年奥巴马当选美国总统时候，《时代》周刊对他的期望是希望他成为罗斯福一样的人物，扭转美国将近30年政治经济向右走的趋势。现在看来，奥巴马非但没有做到这一点，随着茶党运动以及特朗普的当选，美国政治更是水银泻地般右移。这么看来，下一个罗斯福是不会在下一个希特勒之前到来了。

美国左右政治裂痕变得很大来自于右翼变得更右了，而不是左翼更左了。 “This split has widened because the right has moved right, not because the left has moved left. Republican presidents Eisenhower, Nixon, and Ford all supported the Equal Rights Amendment. In 1960, the GOP platform embraced “free collective bargaining” between management and labor. Republicans boasted of “extending the minimum wage to several million more workers” and “strengthening the unemployment insurance system and extension of its benefits.” Under Dwight Eisenhower, top earners were taxed at 91 percent; in 2015, it was 40 percent. Planned Parenthood has come under serious attack from nearly all Republican presidential candidates running in 2016. Yet a founder of the organization was Peggy Goldwater, wife of the 1968 conservative Republican candidate for president Barry Goldwater. General Eisenhower called for massive investment in infrastructure, and now nearly all congressional Republicans see such a thing as frightening government overreach. Ronald Reagan raised the national debt and favored gun control, and now the Republican state legislature of Texas authorizes citizens to “open carry” loaded guns into churches and banks. Conservatives of yesterday seem moderate or liberal today. The far right now calls for cuts in entire segments of the federal government—the Departments of Education, Energy, Commerce, and Interior, for example. In January 2015, fifty-eight House Republicans voted to abolish the Internal Revenue Service. Some Republican congressional candidates call for abolishing all public schools. In March 2015, the Republican-dominated U.S. Senate voted 51 to 49 in support of an amendment to a budget resolution to sell or give away all non-military federal lands other than national monuments and national parks. This would include forests, wildlife refuges, and wilderness areas. In 1970, not a single U.S. senator opposed the Clean Air Act. Joined by ninety-five Republican congressmen, Senator David Vitter of Louisiana, one of the most polluted states in the union, has called for the end of the Environmental Protection Agency.” 摘自 Strangers in Their Own Land: Anger and Mourning on the American Right
