Good Morning Morons. Today is Thursday, May 28, 2015. On this day in 1937 The Golden Gate Bridge was officially opened for traffic. This is an amazing bridge to drive across and a little freaky on a motorcycle due to the winds gusting across it. It is even more amazing to sail under it on a ship.

Do the Morons wonder why our fighter bombers can not seem to target the ISIS savages for more than a few measly strikes? Do the Morons remember LBJ micro-managing all the air strikes in Vietnam requiring him to approve all strikes before they can be made? Well those days are back and the pilots are pissed and the strikes are about as effective as they were in Vietnam. You can NOT micromanage military action from a desk in DC by a chair born SOB who has probably never seen action and COC who when he takes a crap goes out and wipes the area around a gopher hole.

E-mails show Scankles wanted to arm the Libyan rebels against Gaddafi despite it being against the rules in place at the time. And I suspect that she wound up doing it anyway and look at the mess we have over there now. Gadaffi was already pretty well contained and in a box.

The MFM is making a big deal out of the oil and tar globs washing up on Southern CA beaches. As we noted last week this has been going on before the Spanish even landed in CA. It is caused by oil seepage through the ocean floor off the beach. It could actually be reduced or even stopped if they erected oil platforms and drilled thereby reducing the pressure.

AP/Fox is making a big deal out of the Nebraska legislature overriding the governor's veto in a bill that would eliminate the death penalty in Nebraska. Oh a traditional conservative State has abolished the death penalty they say. No NE is not a conservative State. True they have been voting Republican in recent election, true they have two Republican Senators. But we have been running RINOs in the recent elections and both their Senators are RINOs as well. And eliminating the death penalty shows that their legislature is RINO packed as well.

Inholfe tells the EPA he will not allow their illegal land grab. I suggest he get the Senate to sue the EPA and ask for an immediate ruling by SCOTUS since this has already been adjudicated once. He need to stress that a political solution is not possible because the Democrats would block it and the lawless President would veto it. Of course SCOTUS could come back and say a solution is possible through impeachment, just pick it up off the floor. They have done that in the past too.

Instead the teacher's union (remember that FUGLY scrunt) is pushing a bill through the legislature to continue business as usual.

If they want to supply the Saud family with 'the bomb' then will have to accept complete responsibility for any use. If any device should fall into the wrong hands and be used against the US or US forces they would be counterattacked with our nuclear forces.

. . . .This has really been bugging me. She is actively hiding from the press and everyone knows it, but why? They love her and wouldn't ask her any hard questions. I mean all they ever give her is puffball questions like; oh where ever did you get that lovely pantsuit, blah, etc. One interviewer had her on the hook a couple of months ago and didn't follow up with a single question he asked, not one, so it's not like they are going to ask her anything difficult. There has to be another angle I am missing, something else. She cant go through the entire campaign season avoiding the press, that will pi$$ them off.

Morning, 'rons and 'ronettes. Thanks for the news, Vic.
Here is a memo from Warner Brothers studio head Jack Warner. Is it real? I can't say. But it certainly seems like something he'd have dictated: From: Jack L. Warner To: Executive Staff It's time I started thinking about the possibility of someone replacing me as the studio's head of production. I need your help. If there is any such qualified person presently working at the studio, I want him fired. Bette Davis was a Warners star. Here she is in Fashions of 1934: http://goo.gl/qkFxQi How about another story? Some of you might remember the actor Harry Carey, who began his career in Western silents, but became a memorable character actor late in life (his son, Carey Jr., was also a Western star). By 1936, however, his film appearances were few and far between and he was getting tired of the up-and-down nature of movie life. But, one day, opening the mail, he found an invitation to be a pallbearer at the funeral of MGM producer Irving Thalberg, one of the most powerful men in Hollywood, but a man whom Carey had never met. Carey was nonplussed, but acted as a pallbearer anyway. And from that point on, his career went right back to the top. He never stopped working until his death in 1947. What he never knew, however, was that Thalberg's secretary had made a mistake. The invitation was actually supposed to have gone to Thalberg's closest friend, the screenwriter Carey Wilson. Hope you all have a wonderful day. Posted by: Mary Poppins' Practically Perfect Piercing at May 28, 2015 06:52 AM (zF6Iw) 62

>>Today is Thursday, May 28, 2015. On this day in 1937 The Golden Gate Bridge was officially opened for traffic.
I was there for the 50th anniversary celebration...which did not go as planned: >>The bridge walk was the first event of the day, and it got off to a bad start. It was scheduled to begin at 6 in the morning, but the crowd that streamed up the bridge approaches through the trees of the Presidio decided on its own to begin the day at 5:30-- a half hour early. The SF side went (I was in the first few hundred people and followed everyone else) and then when the Marin side saw, they went...and then gridlock. We followed a marching band that was headed to the Marin side and got off the bridge pretty quickly. We were home hours before the flattening: >>One expert paid for by celebration organizers predicted 80,000 people would show up. Instead, there were an estimated 800,000, with 300,000 packing the bridge at one time. Planned events were scuttled, porta-potties overflowed, chaos reigned and chilling before-and-after images showed up later, proving that the normally arched road had flattened under the weight of the pedestrians packed together like sardines.

We suffered a bout of that about ten years back. Funny thing is, secret line in state tax laws: when the valuation goes back down, the tax doesn't! Wouldn't be "fair" to all those needy agencies. I've long felt that tax revaluations should be subject to "claiming race" rules: if the county says your $180K house is suddenly worth $240K, you should be able to say OK, give me the $240K and it's yours.

>>>Common sense supports the idea anyway, as states have the power to tax and as long as there's a dollar left out there in the citizenry they should try to meet their obligations. Has any state ever successfully disavowed its obligations?
. . . .One problem is that States can no longer issue money. All they have is the power to tax in US dollars. Before and during the Revolutionary War all States could and did issue paper currency which allowed them to actually operate with a deficit for short periods of time. They cant do that now and are required by State constitution in most cases to have actual balanced budgets. As someone pointed out upthread there is currently no mechanism to allow a State to go Bankrupt as they are a Sovereign tax authority within their own borders. In theory they could set their tax rate at up to 100% to cover their debts and future obligations, but that will never happen. It is an argument that has been used against States being allowed to declare bankruptcy though. Sort of it's a problem of their own making let them solve it.

All of you folks who are having problems with excessive tax assessment on your house should get up a petition to have the county pass a law that allows the home owner to challenge an assessment by having their own assessment done.
We have that law and guess what? Few challenges. You know why? The law forces them to think twice and normally they under value their assessments to prevent challenges. For example my house is currently assessed at 65K for taxes. Its current value based on sales in the same neighborhood would be close to $200K.

The steady spattering of a mild rain on the oak tree is mesmerizing white noise. Interrupted by rumbly thunder. (As differentiated from crackling thunder, that especially sends doggy over to my side for reassuring pets.)
We needed more rain. The mosquitoes weren't thick enough already. Last year, if we hadn't had the well, the cattle would have been in a bad way. Now, the ponds are full. Some of the lakes are closed to recreation, they're so full. The rivers are rushing. It's just remotely possible the drought is relieved.

No and the US Constitution and all state constitutions say they can't. A constitutional gizmo called the Contracts Clause.

The problem with Kilmeade and Hannity is that they're not very good debaters or broadcasters. They just don't have the intellectual heft or rhetorical skills to win arguments. Although in fairness, Hannity never let fish-face Colmes ever get the better of him. That said, he still sucks as a broadcaster. Posted by: J.J. Sefton at May 28, 2015 08:42 AM (St6BJ) 258

I'm trying to convince our cats that they shouldn't wake me up until the coffee maker starts.
I've got one who will wake me up when the birds start up by clawing at my face and the blankets, but will be fine on his own if the bedroom door is shut and he's on the other side. The other one will sit quietly staring at the bed until I wake up (then I get a torrent of verbal abuse, but at least I got some sleep), but will scratch incessantly at closed doors if he's shut in or out (I wonder if he got trapped somewhere bad in his previous life). For about a year, I was able to shut them both out without the scratching keeping me up all night by covering the bedroom door with foil (FOOOOYYYY-LLLLL)*, but last night someone figured out he could scratch a different door and yowl for his breakfast O_o Not sure what's next. * https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w-0TEJMJOhk Posted by: HR at May 28, 2015 08:44 AM (rHXGG) 260

In Charlotte the democrat city council wanted more money, so they simply increased the valuation of all the Republican area homes. True.
No amount of appealing got you anywhere, the democrats ran the show. GOP takes over legislature AND governorship. They pass a law that the county MUST re evaluate all property over the last three years. My property got re evaluated to the original valuation of three years ago and the city and county had to refund me the overcharged taxes for three years. Elections matter. WE WON.

Some honest questions here: do most Democrats realize what a horrible person Hillary is, and just ignore it because she's on their team, or are many of them in such an isolated bubble they think she's great? Do they honestly think she'll play well with independents? I keep thinking she can't avoid public speaking forever, and eventually the public at large will get a good feel for he and reject her, even with all the favorable coverage she'll get. Maybe I'm wrong, or they're hoping being the first woman president will pull in extra votes to compensate.

Not to sound like Big Greenie or anything, but if you get those chocolate squares that are 80-some or 90% "cacao" they're low in calories, fats, and carbohydrates. There is a difference between "chocolate" and "chocolate candy." I'm all low-carb and all, and I can have a couple, four squares of those any day without screwing up my count.
The full range of Moron commentary, from "fine healthy-looking woman" to "o dem tits." Sure they both mean the same thing, but the polite version is so much more salacious. I'm trying to teach myself to talk like that. Like my third-cousin neighbor, 300 lbs and works at the shipyard, who's managed to stop saying Effin'-A [so to speak] and now enunciates "Oh, My" with the same vehemence. It's cute, on him. "I remember her well. We were quite close" vs "I tapped that shit." See? Want to really gross guys out, spell "tits" as "teats." They quail in horreur.
