Bad Bunny does the halftime show, and Virginia Democrats draw the most outrageous congressional map in America. We'll discuss all this and more on this edition of the editors. I'm Rich Lowry, and I'm joined, as always by the right. Honorable Charles C.W. Cook, the good neighbor, Noah Rothman, and the sage of authenticity was Jim Garrity.

So Jim Garrity, we had the Super Bowl and the much anticipated and or dreaded bad bunny halftime show, which has dominated the conversation in part because it wasn't much of a game.

I know you appreciated the defense, but from where I was sitting, not much memorable

happened in the first half. And by the time it was 9-0, the game was basically over.

Might as well had been 28-0. And I was not a fan of the halftime show. I did not understand

the choice to have a halftime show performed almost entirely in a language that 85% of the country doesn't understand.

I'm not a fan of twerking at shows that are going to be watched by children.

There are, I believe, other dance moves, but all we do with the Super Bowl now is twerk.

And most people would have missed this.

I did miss this until I saw the post game,

post-half-time show commentary, but the three words you could understand that he said,

Bad Bunny, where God bless America. It's like, oh, wow, that's great. Now I thought it was a little

weird that all these other flags were coming out and he met America in the sense of the

continent or continents of America in the sense of the continent or continents

of America making the point that we really shouldn't be called America. And America is just

one of these lists, one of these Western Hemispheric countries in a long, long litany. So I

didn't find anything to enjoy about it. I will grant the production values were

quite high and the choreography was amazing. Maybe for most people that's enough to make up

for everything else, but I, for one, didn't like it. What did you make of it? Rich, you are

completely wrong. You are wrong because if the halftime score had been 28 to nothing, the New England Patriots

would have come back.

Sorry to all the Atlanta Falcon listeners out there.
