-My defense of Heathen America is up at Culture11. Disclaimer: no, I do not think the "Red-Blue" divide fully describes life in this country. But, as with most 'constructions,' it gets at something not entirely untrue.
-In some universe, $27 for a main course counts as a "recession special."
-Alert the presses! I actually agree with a post at Phi Beta Cons.
-In light of William Kristol's hearty praise of Joe the Plumber, I hereby suggest we remove the column from Kristol (ahem) and give it to a regular Joe. We don't need Kristol's fancy Harvard-tainted musings anymore!

That universe is called "blue America".
If you don't like it, go back to exurban Missouri. I hear the Applebee's there has a great early bird special at a very reasonable price.
I see the joke you're getting at, but... no. It's far more blue-state to enjoy obscure, inexpensive 'ethnic' food.
