Hillary will not be testifying on October 22nd. In Joe Biden vernacular that will be a big fing deal. She can't testify without either committing perjury, or incriminating herself.

But if he's given immunity to spill the beans then the fifth no longer protects, right? And the immunity would not apply if he then purjered him self under oath. So it's bad for grand monster regardless I would think.

"She has already committed perjury when testifying about Benghazi and they knew it when she testified. She was not called on it by the balless Repukes.
Posted by: Vic at September 03, 2015 07:32 AM (t2KH5)" _______________________________________________ There was no FBI led investigation of possible felonies back then, and the Holder DoJ wasn't going to indict anyone lying to Congress. If Clinton testifies she runs a high risk of incriminating herself. Now maybe she'll decide to play the Oliver North gambit and hope her testimony makes it impossible to be tried anywhere. If that is the case it becomes a game of chicken. Who blinks first, Clinton or Gowdy? Because Gowdy might want to withdraw the invitation if it starts to look like her testifying might hinder prosecution. Posted by: NotCoach at September 03, 2015 07:41 AM (rsudF) 35

_______________ They can give him immunity and require him to testify, but that doesn't mean they'll get anything useful out of him. He'll have lots of memory lapses ("I can't recall") when it comes to the specifics of who gave him what instructions, he'll confess to a few minor infractions (but it was all his doing, and nobody else's), and he'll insist that Hillary never did anything but tell him to obey the law at all times.

Just watching local morning news with a Republican consultant and a Democratic consultant talking about various issues. The Republican always goes first so the Democrat's lies and spin (said with a condescending laugh and sneer) will be the last words you hear on the subject. The Republican was trying to counter and the local talking head cuts him off with, "I know we could debate this back and forth all day, but we have to move on." Eff you.

It reminds me of the Iraq war, when they'd always find a child's toy in the rubble to photograph, and if they couldn't find one they'd place one (and it would be obvious, because they'd use a clean undamaged toy).

Yesterday's Daily Mail pictures of refugees, a.k.a. asylum seekers appeared, to be majority young men of military age.
When one's country faces an existential threat, it's only common sense that one should flee rather than defend the country or join the rebels in an attempt to overthrow an oppressive government. If we learned anything from the Vietnam war, it's that. When faced with conscription into an unpleasant war, flee to a third country to make a better life for yourself and your family rather than face an uncertain future. It worked well for the democrats who control the US in this timeline. Posted by: Herman Lackluster at September 03, 2015 08:14 AM (W4w2M) 91

What is body shaming anyway? Is that being ashamed of your own body or someone else's?

Just heard that Chicago is in for the largest property tax hike in history. Yeah, I'll need to slave away until I die to make sure some fat teacher is able to retire early on full pension because she babysat some kids eight months out of the year. I remember a letter written by one of my son's elementary school teachers that was rife with grammatical errors. It was laughable that this illiterate was charged with teaching my son anything. But she'll live in comfort for the rest of days for all her very hard work of putting a movie into the VCR. Posted by: Gem at September 03, 2015 08:19 AM (c+gwp) 110

Thanks for the good words MPPPP. The build up, well that is the noir influence I could say plus wanting people to meet the characters before any bullets flew.
I am working on a sequel of course. Won't be a purely first person POV this time. Here is the first draft of the opening. "Make haste Ptolemy!" Slim and exotically beautiful Artacama stood guard at the mausoleum's entrance, fearful that the guards her estranged husband had placed would discover them in the act. Behind her, Ptolemy and his helpers struggle in a darkness barely relieved by two torches. There is a grating sound of stone moving against stone. She prays to the supreme god of her native land Ahuramazda and also chief god of this land Amun-Ra for protection while also asking Anubis to understand what has to be done. Behind her there is another more solid sounding thud as the covering stone contacts the stone floor and makes the whole room tremble. Her hand clutches at the door lintel as she strains to hear anything. The sound of boots slapping pavement and the jingle of armor is what Artacama fears. Instead she hears nothing except Ptolemy's men and her own rapidly beating heart, it seems her prayers are being heard. "Do we take it all with us?" Artacama turns and stops in awe. Alexander of Macedon's linen wrapped body is laying on the floor but it is all the gold gleaming in the flickering torchlight that threatens to mesmerize her. The quantity and variety of treasure is staggering, but she also remembers who did this. Her husband, gripped with a desire to make his own empire by stealing Alexander's body, had done this profanity. "No, only Lord Alexander's body. He deserves his wishes to be honored. Put everything else back in the sarcophagus and close it up again." Posted by: Anna Puma at September 03, 2015 08:36 AM (4nG/u) 145

They would have to arrest these politician/criminals for subverting the rule of law and endangering the nation. That would be HORRIBLE. I mean, why shouldn't politician/criminals make big bank from allowing 7th century religious savages to obtain nuclear weapons? Why shouldn't the politician/criminals import foreign criminals to defraud the welfare and voting systems?

They've been taught that demanding their "rights" means they deserve to get what they want, whatever that is.
I admit that in the case of the Bavarian schoolgirls told they couldn't wear short skirts to school because that might offend* the Muslim "migrants" being housed nearby, I sided with the kids. The "right" to self-expression is more real than the "right" to move somewhere and force your religion on the natives. (link for you pervs: http://is.gd/gFBNsp) * "Inflamed" is probably the more realistic verb, but they seem to have learned that "offend" gets results. And while I side with the kids on principle, if any of them asked me for advice I'd be "You know they won't have any compunctions about raping you, right?"

One Marine has been killed and 9 others were hurt when a helicopter made a hard landing at Camp Lejeune in North Carolina.
The CH-53E Super Stallion helicopter came down hard during a training exercise around 9 p.m. on Wednesday, Capt. Ryan Elizabeth Alvis said in a statement. Alvis said the name of the dead Marine would not be released for 24 hours. One of the injured Marines was in serious condition. The other eight Marines suffered injuries that were not considered serious, Capt. Kendra Motz, a base spokeswoman, said Thursday morning. Their names have not been released. Alvis said a number of the injured were taken to the Naval Hospital Camp Lejeune. Others were taken to Onslow Memorial Hospital in Jacksonville and one was sent to Vidant Medical Center in Greenville. There was no other breakdown on how many of the injured went to which hospital.

I grew up on the wrong side of the tracks in Southern California in the '80's. I assure you, you don't want to live in one of these "vibrant" communities.
Our betters are the ones who never have, so all they know are nannies and good food. This goes back to the Zimmerman discussions we had here: people in gated communities are completely out of touch with the lower middle class and upper lower class. Maybe, just maybe, you should listen when they're backing someone like Trump. Wouldn't it have been nice is President Bulworth had actually gone to neighborhoods he knows nothing about and listened to the residents? The movie character started speaking "truth" after Halle Barry took him to see her mean neighborhood, not just the truth he learned from an old terrorist.

Trump response should be: No one seeking the public trust of public office should be asked to pledge allegiance to anything other than the USA and its constitution. Anyone who pledges allegiance to a political party is compromised in the same way as if he or she pledged allegiance to a private corporation or any other interest group.

For all we know he would refuse to turn it over because he doesn't want his illegal gambling website found out, or because he doesn't want his *real* tax records found, or any number of other things. By definition the right not to self-incriminate means we are not allowed (eh, socially sure, but not in any official capacity) to speculate on *why* the 5th is being invoked.

The Clintons have never taken a political hit lying down. But given their weak and panicky reactions to Mr. Obama's current, well-orchestrated hit on her -- the FBI investigation into her alleged mishandling of classified material as secretary of state -- they have appeared to passively absorb the escalating attack.

Just as email-gate looked to be winding down, RadarOnline.com has exclusively learned a person claiming to be a computer specialist has come forward with the stunning news that 32,000 emails from Hillary Clinton's private email account are up for sale. The price tag -- a whopping $500,000!
Promising to give the trove of the former Secretary of State's emails to the highest bidder, the specialist is showing subject lines as proof of what appear to be legitimate messages. "Hillary or someone from her camp erased the outbox containing her emails, but forgot to erase the emails that were in her sent box," an insider reveals to Radar of the Presidential contender's latest nightmare.

Martin O'Malley's call for more Democratic presidential debates at the party's summer meeting last week may have been the loudest, but it was neither the first nor the last.
A growing number of party activists, from New Hampshire to Iowa, are voicing concern about the Democratic National Committee's plan to hold six debates over all, with only four coming before the first four states finish voting. The party fears a lower number will of debates will diminish its ability to drive the discussion as the Republican contest, led by Donald J. Trump, dominates the news, and that a flabby process will leave the ultimate nominee unprepared for the general election. The timing of the New Hampshire debate, sandwiched between the Hanukkah and Christmas holidays, has particularly rankled activists in the state, who have openly protested the decision.

"Wasn't there a thing, VIA, concerning Lerner and her giving that speech and immediately pleading the fifth? Like, she should have plead it from the beginning and because she didn't it shouldn't have applied?"
Yes there was. But I don't know how that works in relation to the overall Pleading the Fifth, defense. I think her problem was that she specifically made a declarative statement while under oath pertaining to her innocence/actions taken, and then when facing cross examination, she took the fifth.

>>>>I always thought that pleading the Fifth applied to specific situations/questions.
So we have an IT guy who says that answering ANY as yet unasked question, including "Will you please state your name for the record" could potentially cause self incrimination? Hey all you Moron shyster Lawyers, put me some f'n knowledge please! . . .He can't invoke the 5th until he is put under oath and actually asked a question. This nonsense about pleading the 5th to try and get out of the hearing is B$ political grandstanding. Posted by: The Great White Scotsman at September 03, 2015 09:29 AM (iONHu) 282
ISIS has issued a fatwa to kill Kermit due to his blasphemous carnal relationships with swine.

Not exactly correct. No inference in criminal proceedings. Infer all you like in civil proceedings. Gowdy has become a pawn in the Clinton-Obama battle over who gets to write the Obama legacy.
Well, true. Since there is not "incrimination" in a civil proceeding, the right not to self-incriminate does not apply. But going before a senate committee can be the beginning of a criminal case. Therefore, his choice not to show means we cannot (officially) make any inferences about why. We as individuals are certain free to do so all we want- it just won't have any effect on anything.

You wd have to invoke the 5th at the hearing - you dont get to not show up.
Usually an atty will be present who will state on the record that he advised his client to take the 5th.

Getting into my own personal WABAC machine (which doesn't work very well), I think it's a difference in what happens down the road. If the House throws her in their own jail, all she has to do is testify (even if she pleads the 5th to every question) and then they have to let her go. A criminal prosecution can keep her in jail even after she testifies. I think. Posted by: AllenG (DedicatedTenther) - Fire-hooks and Rock Salt for sale at September 03, 2015 09:46 AM (kff5f) 347

Why is it that even when crowds are lineup into infinity they still only have one register open.
If the cashiers work 30-hr weeks the company will have to pay for Obamacare. Nah, it was always that way, even before. I wonder sometimes if there's some incentive to keep hours low that results in management bonuses and retarded long lines.

The Clintons have been getting away with outrageous and felonious stuff for the entire time they singly or collectively have held public office.
True story: I was doing IT consulting in New York City, in 1992 when Clinton was running for office and the bimbo eruptions were a thing. I remember remarking to some people over drinks who I knew for an actual fact were ardent registered Republicans: "Beat the rush, hate the Clintons now." I got immediate push back to the effect that the Clintons seem so nice and even though they were Democrats, they were a new breed of Democrats, etc, etc. I explained to them that I lived in a part of Oklahoma close to Arkansas and that I knew for a fact that the Clintons were not new anything, just typical old style Southern Democrat pond scum. No one believed me--cynical New York and New Jersey folks were unable to believe that mere Arkansas hicks could be that corrupt. I was back in NYC city and met those same folks for dinner after the 96 election and asked them if they believed me now. They did.

Posted by: Mary Poppins' Practically Perfect Piercing at September 03, 2015 09:44 AM (zF6Iw) I linked an article way back when this shit started that told how the House could prosecute LL w/o going through Holder.

Just one of many reasons why lawyers have outstripped dentists in alcoholism and suicide. The profession has problem as cops. The slime get all the ink, the good ones get unsung, and the profession doesn't do enough as a whole to purge itself of the slime.

Posted by: Grey Fox at September 03, 2015 10:02 AM (bZ7mE) Pretty much every Chinese movie these days includes some anti-Japanese message. They are clearly preparing their population for war with Japan. Even a movie like "Running on Karma" which is advertised as a kind of light romantic thriller- turns very dark and preachy with SPEECHES!!!! about how even those who seem like good people cannot escape the karma on the souls from their past lives and should be punished- directed toward the Japanese. It's gotten ridiculously worse since China took over Hong Kong and the Hong Kong film industry. And now, with Hollywood in their pocket, I guess it will be all Chinese pre-war propaganda all the time. I just hope the Japanese have nukes and keep building their defense forces. They've been good allies but King Putz will leave them to hang. Posted by: naturalfake at September 03, 2015 10:11 AM (KUa85) 431

I agree that taking the fifth pretty well guarantees you'll be assumed to be guilty, but there's another reason to do so. Mob boss Joseph Bonano explains in his book that they would routinely just take the fifth on every question possible, even to the point of being nailed for contempt of court, because of how lawyers work.
It might seem like a meaningless, simple, and safe question that you answered, but once you have answered that question, any question related to and tied to that you can no longer take the 5th on. So that question "do you work at Bigg's apartment store" might seem safe to respond to, but if the lawyer then builds on that with a reasonable series of related questions to how you were there on the night of the theft, then you might find yourself in trouble you can't get out of. So while the guy might not be guilty of treason or sharing state secrets, etc, he might be guilty of something else he'd rather the prosecutors didn't dig up. And he doesn't want to end up being Scooter Libby for the Clintons. Posted by: Christopher Taylor at September 03, 2015 10:18 AM (39g3+) 440

The interview raises the question of the role hacking could play in an election involving someone as simultaneously high profile and secretive as Clinton.
"I have to say it's probably more Julian," who threatens Hillary, Dotcom said. "But I'm aware of some of the things that are going to be roadblocks for her." Assange has access to information, Dotcom said, though he added that he didn't know anything more specific. Posted by: Edward Snowden at September 03, 2015 10:20 AM (e8kgV) 443

We substantiated the second allegation that pending ES records included entries for individuals reported to be deceased. As of September 2014, more than 307,000 pending ES records, or about 35 percent of all pending records, were for individuals reported as deceased by the Social Security Administration. However, due to data limitations, we could not determine specifically how many pending ES records represent veterans who applied for health care benefits. These conditions occurred because the enrollment program did not effectively define, collect, and manage enrollment data. In addition, VHA lacked adequate procedures to identify date of death information and implement necessary updates to the individual's status. Unless VHA officials establish effective procedures to identify deceased individuals and accurately update their status, ES will continue to provide unreliable information on the status of applications for veterans seeking enrollment in the VA health care system.

Not a smidgeon of classified data:
A review last month by Reuters of previously released Clinton emails found 30 email threads that the State Department has marked to show they include information shared in confidence by foreign government officials, from prime ministers to spy chiefs. U.S. government regulations examined by Reuters say this sort of information, whether written or spoken, must be classified from the start, and handled through secure, government-controlled channels. The Clinton-Mitchell correspondence is one of 57 email threads found by Reuters in the latest batch of emails released on Monday that the State Department has marked as including the same type of information. Uh oh, she's lost Reuters... Posted by: Lizzy at September 03, 2015 10:37 AM (NOIQH) 474

That's how she set it up. He was a Hillary 2008 campaign IT guy she asked to set up a private email server the day before her SoS confirmation hearing.

Ok, so, while waiting for entertaining content I did a little research (very little). It was confusing that our dear asylum seekers who wanted to get to Germany were in Budapest. So I looked at map and it all became very clear.
Syrian Christians fleeing Militant Islam took shelter in Turkey until they could get on the Orient Express at Istanbul where they would transit Bulgaria, Serbia, and arrive at the Gates of Vienna. All they would need then was a westbound connection and once past Vienna, they would be in Germany. Makes perfect sense. Then I noticed that it was only a modest float from Carthage to Malta, and with a short swim across the Straits of Messina it would then be a simple bus ride to Bristol. So why have we not heard about Hannibal crossing the Straits of Gibraltar? Can his elephants not get clearance from animal quarantine? Is that what is delaying his advance across the alps into Rome? It's not like this is difficult. It has all been done before. What's the problem? Posted by: Herman Lackluster at September 03, 2015 10:56 AM (W1rLi) 525

Popeye - misogynist Yosemite Sam - pro gun --------------- Those kind of easily offended people wanted all cartoons above the level of Care Bears and My Little Pony banned for everything back in the day. Any excuse would do, racism, violence, sexism, more violence, failure to send Hans Blix with a strongly worded letter, "heroes" and "villains" as labeling devices, marketing violent toys... I heard it all...and still watched the cartoons. Thirty years later, nothing has changed, except the easily offended people have voted themselves a ban hammer to use on people who gave offense.

From what I understand from legal eagles, the question is whether the judge followed the collective bargaining agreement of the players and owners, not the merits of the case. The CBA gives Goodell the right to suspend for violations of league rules. The judge just said no to the suspensions, while leaving in place the fine and draft pick losses of the Patriots. Those same legal eagles(who may be wrong) feel that the NFL will immediately appeal and Mr.Federal Judge is on shaky ground. Posted by: Jen the original at September 03, 2015 11:06 AM (l+vXG) 562

Posted by: L, Elle at September 03, 2015 11:03 AM (2x3L+) He doesn't rank in the top 10 on any lists believe it or not. It's because other than some collaboration with Dr Dre back in the day, Eminem doesn't really work with other rappers. Lil Wayne has somehow managed to have a verse in pretty much every popular rap song in the past 15 years.

Berman is attacking the Labor Law angle in his written ruling. That Goodell denied Brady basic due process.(Grain of salt, I'm listening to excerpts being read on radio. ) Also noting many procedural mistakes by Goodell. Failure to provide notice. Refusal to disclose documents, witness testimony. The League had a CBA that gave them nearly absolute power, and they still overstepped it, seems to be Berman's tone. I'll read the whole thing as soon as possible.

Good that whole thing over a couple of psi was BS anyway, not that I give a fk about football.
Posted by: ThisBeingMilt at September 03, 2015 10:20 AM (MbrzC) Back in the old days, boxers would wrap their hands with gauze and tape their hands with the heaviest medical tape available. There was actually a brand of 'medical' tape manufactured with the specific purpose of loading the gloves as much as possible without disqualification. Even the slightest additional weight would have a slight but appreciable effect on the impact of the blows and give an advantage to those using it. Was that cheating? You bet, but it was hairline borderline and thus not enough for disqualification. Same thing here. Maybe what was done wasn't illegal. I don't care about football, either. But it was unethical and unsportsmanlike. Posted by: troyriser at September 03, 2015 11:17 AM (Bvf82) 586

Drudge says "feminists" are mad at whoever does the Kermit puppet because his new pig girlfriend puppet is "young and thin". Seriously? People actually are trying to make a pig puppet into a political issue? ------------- The feminists in question have their pantsu in a bunch because the young and impressionable Youth Of America will learn the following lesson. To wit: if one's live-in "fiancee" becomes a fat abusive self-indulgent harpy, one can kick the pig to the curb and get a younger, thinner, and nicer version. The funny thing is in "The Muppets Take Manhatten" Piggy got Kermit to the altar. Then in the Nineties after Henson kicked it Jim Henson Studios hit the reset button and Piggy got her feminist lifestyle and didn't need no frog in her life...unless he wanted to follow the romcom script, give in, and be part of it, of course! But it's the 21st century now, and Kermit is freed of the need for commitment. Tough luck, pig. Posted by: exdem13 at September 03, 2015 11:18 AM (ry4ab) 591

Michelle Obama chose to make her focus as FLOTUS the diet, weight, and fitness of children. By doing this, especially her quest to end the "child obesity epidemic" she invites people to evaluate her diet, fitness and weight. That is just natural - would people to criticize the host of "The Biggest Loser" if she weighed 250 lbs? Of course they would.
What Salon conveniently forgets is that Laura Bush got all kinds of guff with her focus as FLOTUS, reading and literature. Authors took great pleasure in refusing to attend her book festival or declined personal invitations from Laura because they hated her husband. Authors used to sniff that they didn't want Bush to select their book for his vacation reading. Every FLOTUS gets criticism, some of it solely based on peoples' feeling for her spouse's politics. That's life. Posted by: Lizzy at September 03, 2015 11:28 AM (NOIQH) 605

This is my take on the whole Trump saga as well. I will say though, I don't understand the anger at the GOP for making Trump sign a loyalty pledge. I actually think it was a shrewd move. If Trump wants to run on a 3rd party, he's free to do so and has no such constraints. I actually think the pledge will help Trump, which is why he's signing it.

I don't - that would be a disaster. Thought it was odd that the GOPe decided that it was a good idea to dare him to do it w/their loyalty pledge. Posted by: Lizzy at September 03, 2015 11:51 AM (NOIQH) 700

I guess I don't understand why so many conservatives want him to run as a 3rd party candidate that you know will simply mean a landslide win for either Biden or Hillary. Why not.

If Chicago would just engulf the surrounding suburbs, they would have enough population to form their own state. Two more democrat senators.
Detroit could do the same. Perhaps all the major bankrupt metropolitan urban centers could do it. We'd have five or ten new states, ten or twenty more democrat senators. Everybody wins. Posted by: Herman Lackluster at September 03, 2015 11:54 AM (W1rLi) 705

Everyone who runs for president is an egomaniac who thinks that America needs whatever agenda he's pushing. In that context, signing the loyalty pledge says that the republican party is more important than the USA.

Within a few years of Perot's candidacy we had a balanced budget. Posted by: HUCK / AKIN 2016 The budget was balanced primarily because the Cold War ended. Also, Clinton got through a massive tax hike. Ross Perot is not why we had a surplus in the 90s. Also, Ross Perot wanted to put a massive gas tax in order to balance the budget, so I don't see that as a conservative solution to our budget problems as Democrats basically talk the same game of massive tax hikes in order to balance budgets.

The article on Dean Jones says that the Christian Rescue Fund is "a support group for Christians, Jews and others who have been persecuted because of their faith." The author makes it sound like Mr. Jones was ran some kind of rehab clinic. But it was so much more than that. Dean Jones worked with international organizations and the US government to free oppressed and imprisoned Christians and Jews in other countries. The man did a lot of good.
