Over this weekend, I read this ?modest proposal? from columnist Froma Harrop: ?The federal government should take over Louisiana.?   Read more here.

Why don?t we take it a step further.  Why doesn?t the federal government divide parts of the nation into military districts? 

So many things are wrong with Ms. Harrop?s column.  I?ll name only one: not one word about the U.S. Constitution.  Apparently that document is a pragmatist?s nightmare.
