1 Good Morning Morons. Today is Saturday, July 26, 2014. On this day in 1951 Walt Disney's Alice In Wonderland premiered in London England and NYC. Kathryn Beaumont was 10 years old when she did the voice for Alice. My question is, why can't we make movies like this now? I guess because all the people like Disney are dead.

2 Palestinian Authority chief Mahmoud Abbas is at the UN trying to get them to come in and pull their chestnuts out of the fire after they started a war with Israel. They will probably get it too because the Muzzie 'n Chief we have will sell them out. I never thought I would see the day when we have a President who sides with thugs and terrorists. And also gives them money.

This is simply a thinly veiled attempt to ask the UN to intervene against Israel, notes John Bolton, a former U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. and a Fox News contributor.

3 Republican lawmakers are challenging the Obama administration over a newly announced plan to expand the use of U.S. military bases to house illegal immigrant children, warning that it will put a strain on troops and threaten military readiness.

So what little money has been left in the budget for the military after sequester will be used up housing illegals that Obama brought here through open invitation. Not only that, but he is openly inviting our military to get hit with all these diseases that they are bringing with them. I say reopen Ellis Island and stick them there until they can be deported back to their home country. They can also get their hearings while they are there.

So what are the Republicans doing? Expelling a lot of hot air.

9 Remember that feminist scrunt professor who assaulted the anti-abortion protestor (16 yo)? She pleaded nolo.

A feminist studies professor at a California state university accused of forcibly grabbing an anti-abortion activist's poster and assaulting the 16-year-old girl has pleaded no contest to three misdemeanor charges.

University of California at Santa Barbara Associate Professor Mireille Miller-Young was charged with one count each of grand theft, vandalism and battery in connection to the March 4 incident involving 16-year-old Thrin Short, her older sister, Joan, and other pro-life activists who were holding signs in a free speech zone on the campus when the professor went berserk.

So in CA grand theft and assault and battery are misdemeanors? Or did they just downgrade it because she was a hyphenated liberal scrunt? But cry me a river, she was "triggered". And she is still employed by the University.

16 The Government is cracking down on "illegal" school bake sales. Moms across the nation will be booked on felony baking charges by the mighty enforcer of law, Eric Holder.

People are beginning to hate this stupid law, which was passed when the Dems absolutely owned both houses and 60 votes in the Senate. But 17 RINOs in the House voted for it. I guess when President Rick Perry takes office he can issue a blanket exemption to every school in the country by EO.

20 The unindicted criminal Holder has a new regulation mandating that theaters install a host of new expensive upgrades for the blind and deaf. How many blind people go to "see" a movie? If I am not mistaken the law says "must make reasonable accommodation". This is not reasonable. This law has been massively abused since the day it was passed and has been nothing more than a lawyer right to work bill. Which is what the POS was intended for.

If Holder and Co. continue with this shit every theater in the country will shutdown. Or they will make their theaters private clubs for rich people.

About 15 years ago some friends and I went to see a midnight laser show. The music was Pink Floyd (isn't it always) and was incredibly, uncomfortably loud. Sitting at the end of our aisle, just a couple of seats away, was a blind man.

And his dog.

We were so pissed off about him making that kind dog suffer though that shit that we couldn't even chill out and watch the show.

I mean, seriously?!

He couldn't just listen to Pink Floyd at home?

First off, they put a picture of a little girl on there that had NOTHING to do with the issue, simply an artifact to sway the crowd. Then they make a bold statement that the Israelis rejected the peace deal when there never was a peace deal.

That is enough to say they went beyond their normal biased reporting and used lies and innuendo to tear down Israel and its reputation. Any reasonable jury would see that as libel and even meeting the Sullivan test.

Honestly, the Stones should have retired at least 10 years ago. I see video of them on stage and I cringe. Sinbad did a routine about M.C. Hammer performing as an old man and it's hilarious.

Actually, I remember my dad (rest in peace) entering my room, somewhat peeved that I was blaring Led Zeppelin on the stereo. "What, you're going to be listening to that when you're 80?!"

On those trips to HI that I talked about a few weeks ago that was one thing you had to look out for. In fact, it was best to just leave the hookers alone. I think about half of them were cross-dressing transgenders. If they lifted up their dress you would see something you did not expect to see.

Funny you should mention that. I read a lengthy article one time that talked about the correlation between murder rates and the death penalty.

When you graphed the murder rate compared to the length of time it took to try and execute the perps it was directly proportional. As the time increased, so did the murder rate. As the time decreased, so did the murder rate. And if there was not death penalty at the rate went up and up and stayed up.

The death penalty IS a deterrent as well as making sure to repeat offender.

But I am sure we are getting some of those. And we have always been low on illegals because we enforce the law here and provide very little incentive for them to come here.

The WH traitors have already thought of that, apparently. If the governors don't know where the hell the illegals went, how can they be found and flown back to their home countries?

And like I said, I've only seen stories of states and towns getting 200, or 300. Low numbers. We've gotten tens of thousands streaming across the border. Where are they all going? I believe states have gotten 10x as many as is being reported. And who could dispute the numbers being put out by the WH? We don't even know where they went, so there is no way to track them.

Do you remember what the old drive-in speakers looked like and the shape they were in. That is what those headphones would look like after a year just so maybe one blind person a decade could go "listen" to a movie.

And then the ACLU would sue saying the theater didn't maintain the gear. Theaters are already in bad shape. This will be the death knell. I think they should sue based on the "reasonable" clause. Given a "reasonable" jury they would win.

Vic.

She wasn't just a burglar. Add assault and battery, kidnapping, possibly home invasion. Her accomplice would be subject to murder charges because a homicide occurred in the course of a felony. The 80 year old gentleman should indeed have shut up.

That sounds like their thinking.

Velvet Ambition: "TFG wants to be impeached."

Not sure what his goal would be in that, but all the ones I can think of are not healthy for our nation.

I think I'll just quote from my own comment from yestermorn:

Vote them out... Article V... Courts require states to turn aliens over to corrupt, non-responsive feds...lawsuits... [impeachment...] etc.

Seems t'me, all the good, right, decent, normal methods take the kind of time that the enemy enjoys putting to dastardly use. Takes. Too. Long.

A lawless Fed in cahoots with corrupt courts should not stop the states from doing what must be done to protect citizens.

Of course you know, this means Andrew Breitbart whispers...

If you have liberal Jewish relatives consider sending them this video-"The case for Israel." by Bill Whittle If your relatives are older Jews (as opposed to 20 somethings) they probably support the state of Israel and may not be on the "poor Palestinians" bandwagon. It might be a good idea to send this video to brainwashed Jewish young people too, who may not know the history of Israel and Gaza. In it,l Whittle asks the question, "If you're Jewish why do you still support Democrats?" if you're tiring of arguing with your relatives maybe someone else might help convince them. I know it's unlikely, but still....

How much did Obama give to Hamas-hundreds of thousands or millions-so they can build tunnels to hold kidnapping victims and also attack Israel using concrete they claimed would be used for houses?!!

It's going to take some Governor to stop whining and take direct action.

But the regimes strategy is to spread these invaders all over creation as to make it as difficult as possible to track and to make the direct impact on state budgets as small as possible.

But when you sit back and contemplate that there were actual meetings in the White House to formulate this plan to subvert American sovereignty you begin to hate the stupid bastards that put this menace back in the White House more and more.

The SCOAMF is many things but cray cray is not one of them.

He sees the potential to lose the Senate for the final two years of his Presidency and he has big plans, BIG PLANS.

I have no doubt that he plans some egregious EO action for the fall that would require impeachment so the question will be can the GOP hold strong and not take the bait and wait till till after the November elections to start these proceedings?

It's stunning to think we actually have a President strategizing this way.

181 CrotchetyOldJarhead, my wife and I home-schooled our three. Actually, what we tried to do was make them autodidactic. We'd tell them, whatever you're in, home, school, wherever, your education is your own responsibility. This was a necessary teaching because, frankly, milady and I weren't really up to the task.

Nevertheless, when it came time for my twin boys to get their driver's licenses, the State required a literacy test. That was their only day in "school." They both tested 'way ahead of high school seniors, at 16, to my surprise. When one went to college, again he tested well ahead of his peers. Their older sister decided to go to the local HS for her senior year, and managed to get all kinds of advanced credits to graduate.

Can't really say we did that. We just read to them, read with them, and got them reading, mostly. Uncle $crooge comics teach surprisingly good lessons about thrift and hard work!

A young (compared to me) cousin, who has kids ranging from college-age to toddler, has home-schooled them all. They have homeschooling organizations for support, teaching materials, even sports team arrangements; we had none of that. "School" are whatever you're learning, and learning with close family and friends is best.

Hope the law favors you whatever state you're in. Checking on homeschool regs was one of the first things we did in moving, and we were glad to see our state was supportive, by which I mean non-interfering and non-demanding.

There are individual schools, individual teachers who are exceptions, but by and large the federally-run institutions no longer educate, they indoctinate, and sending children to them should be considered abuse. IMHO.

182 I rarely go to the movies, although I weren't to see "Jersey Boys" which is about Franki Valli and the start of the Four Seasons. The music and acting are great if you don't mind "F U" every two minutes ( since it takes place in NJ and has partly to do with some mob connections of the group withChristopher Walken as a grandfatherly mob boss) it's worthwhile to see. Very interesting story not known because in the 60s they had to clean up the background of the group. No sex, no real violence. I just point that out and also say that where IO am which has a heavily latino population, that I didn't see any people I thought looked Central American in the movie-illegal or otherwise, so if you wan to to alert people to issues about diseases it might be better to push the idea of illnesses in schools.

190 My Saturday irony: I am sitting here re-reading Field of Dishoner which is an Honor Harrington book by David Weber. <caution; spoilers coming>

The opening chapters are about how after a sneak attack by the Havenites and much loss of life by Manticore they are having difficulty getting a declaration of war so they continue operations while they have the momentum. They are having difficulty because a large portion of the legislature are corrupt, backstabbing SOBs, who care more about their own empires than they do protecting the planet. One faction is peace at any cost.

When I first read this in the dead tree format I said to myself not realistic. After an event like that any double dealing backstabber who did shit like that would lynched by the public.

After 6 years of Choom-boy and a Democrat Senate backing him up I see that we are doing the same shit here. Unfortunately we do not have yje "good" Party that is doing everything they can to offset the bastards and all the good senior military officials have been fired by Pharaoh Obama.

Those two, and Pattya, are the reasons I can't go into politics. The innuendo alone would be enough to sink a candidacy.

213 I sense... a ripple in the force. A new post coming up perhaps.

Before this old thread dies, I offer these:

Another snarky radically inclined webwork
Bill vs. Barry (vid 1:41)
Two Slimeball Presidents Compared, Points for Style
mindfulwebworks.com/radical/bill-vs-barry
and still not as disturbing as Bowie and Jagger.

HOWEVER, inspired by NDH's post (except the vid) and by
Bitter Clinger: Defy the law of gravity: SMILE!!
I offer as an alternative a webwork of a different spirit:

Project for today: Smile (a dab of text and tiny kitty pic)

214 @30, Brian jones was murdered. There's good evidence for it but there wasn't enough to charge the guy. There's a blog post about it by the guy that used to be their road manager.

215 12 Obama is planning another big amnesty action via "Let it be written, let it be done" after this Summer. His adviser says this may trigger impeachment. Now WTF was the purpose of that statement?

***

The obvious desperate purpose is to bait the GOP into actually impeaching Obama. That is the only hope/plan the Dems have to stop the bleeding of Obama's poll numbers in advance of the looming November bloodbath.

But what is worth pondering is whether by this, the Dems are conceding that what Obama intends to do on immigration is an impeachable offense.

The legal question being, can a President blatantly defy the law and the successfully justify that as "prosecutorial discretion"?

200 Vic, when I rode big bikes- choppers-- on the street

there was a running argument- "is it better to step off the bike, and

tumble? Or ride it down?"

All I can do with 0-Merica is ride it down....

Posted by: backhoe at July 26, 2014 09:36 AM (ULH4o)

When I rode bikes if I saw I was going down I tried to ride it down as well. Sometimes though that wasn't possible.

Posted by: Vic

Yeah, I had 74's toss me. Lucky me, none of those spills injured me beyond a few bruises- I always wore full leathers, boots, and gauntlets. On King's Way I had to ditch my bike in a lady's flower bed- fool in a line of cars coming at me pulled out to pass- on a 2-lane-- and there was nowhere else to go. The bike and I fetched up in a garden she was tilling. She was quite gracious- didn't even want me to pay for the damages I and 550 pounds of 74 had caused....

It's already provided for in the digital formats in use. It's just another audio sub-track, like turning on the commentary on a DVD.

There's a lot of ways to do this without creating much expense for the theater. Most phones these days have WiFi and can stream audio. An app for a streaming audio track to be listened to via earbuds plugged into the phone will keep the added audio limited to those who want it and keep the expense for the venue to a minimum.

222 Closed captions in the theater can be done cheaply with a variation on 3D glasses. Without the glasses the text is invisible. Will cause a little image compromise for those using the glasses but if you're deaf and you don't want to wait for a home version...

The version I heard is that he died from horseplay in the pool that got out of hand. It was a stupid and tragic accident, but not murder.

Is there any state in the USA where you can legally shoot someone (burglar, etc.) running away outside your house?

227 1. That Bowie/Jagger video is unwatchable ... geez, get a room you two.

2. As a rural Texan I can't even imagine spending your life in prison for shooting a burglar. How that hell is that fair? They're robbing you, you drop them, that's a s equitable as it gets.

Third chance - I'm cut up, life's like a razor's edge
Fourth chance - Ooh, I'm all shut up and I'm standing on the ledge

And I'm goin' down (I'm goin' down)
Goin' down (I'm goin' down)
Goin' down (I'm goin' down)
Ooh, down

235 "Bowie's kind of a funny case. Touted for his alternate sexual identity, he's pretty much admitted since that he did the whole thing for attention,"

Years ago I read an interview with Bowie where he talks about getting chicks to sleep with him by letting them think they were "converting" him (winks, nods, slaps knee)

236 The head of the Transportation Security Administration said this week the bomb failed to detonate because of how long Abdulmutallab had been wearing his underwear.

John Pistole told the Aspen Security Forum: 'The bomber had had the device with him for over two weeks.'

Mr Pistole was then asked whether the bomb had become 'damp', to which he replied: 'Let's say it was degraded.'
