Good Morning Morons. Today is Thursday, January 07, 2016. On this day in 1959 The US recognized the government of Fidel Castro. The stupid State Department did not know he was a communist even though he was a known supporter of revolutionary left wing groups.

All that said, though, the former president lost his deft political touch years ago. It seems he either doesn't fully get politics anymore or he has some deep-seated, Freudian urge to sink his wife's campaign. There was the time in 2014 when he revealed that it took Hillary six months to recover from a December 2012 concussion and blood clot that resulted from a fainting spell, and that her health was "a serious issue." That opened up a big can of worms for her.

McCain being a d1ck again:
Sen. John McCain on Wednesday questioned Sen. Ted Cruzs eligibility to be president, piling on to recent attacks over the Texas senators citizenship. "I dont know the answer to that," McCain said of Cruz's eligibility in a radio interview on The Chris Merrill Show in Arizona.
"I know it came up in my race because I was born in Panama, but I was born in the Canal Zone which is a territory", McCain said. "Thats different from being born on foreign soil, so I think there is a question. I am not a Constitutional scholar on that, but I think its worth looking into. I dont think it's illegitimate to look into it."

Pretty clear Hillary was collecting files on her enemies - her email server had Bush era memos on it, something she didn't need to do her job. I say she's kept out of jail based on all the stuff she has on her would-be prosecutors, those in position to push for it.

That Kabuki bill the GOP voted on yesterday to totes repeal Obamacare and stuff? Even more Kabuki than usual:
The bill scraps some of the Affordable Care Acts central elements, including the expansion of Medicaid and the federal subsidies that help people buy private coverage. The repeal of both items is delayed until 2018, which Republicans say would give them time to put a replacement in place.
The bill cuts off federal funding to Planned Parenthood for one year. The bill would also provide $235 million in extra funding for community health centers, which Republicans say could fill the gap left by Planned Parenthood.
The Hill
So aside from that Obama veto because the bill isn't tied to anything, it's only a delayed repeal while they dust off Federal Romneycare and shift baby killing funds from one liberal spawn point to another.
The GOP will give you nothing but grief.

Yahoo is prepping to lay off 10% or more of its workforce. Several employees told Business Insider that they have been bracing for layoffs since Yahoo hired McKinsey AND Co. in November to mull a reorg and decide which units to potentially shutter. The company has decreased its headcount by 14% over the last year in a steady drip of layoffs, according to its most recent quarterly report, but it still employs more than 10,000 people. Trimming by 10% means that more than 1,000 people would leave Yahoo.

In the "No Fun" Zone:
Theres a shiny Super Bowl 50 commemorative badge being worn by a number of Bay Area public safety agencies leading up to next months big game at Levis Stadium in Santa Clara but there is a notable exception.
San Francisco Fire Chief Joanne Hayes-White said no to her rank-and-file firefighters buying the NFL-sanctioned badges (at $124.99 a pop) and not just because she thinks the commercial venture trivializes the departments "rich 150-year history." She also points to the Super Bowls reputation for unleashing a high level of domestic violence that day. "That was a relevant point that I had not considered before it was brought to my attention," Hayes-White said.

Ironically, from 2005:
San Francisco police are investigating an incident in which the husband of Fire Chief Joanne Hayes-White called 911 to report that she had hit him over the head with a bottle, officials said today. Sean White refused to be treated when officers arrived at the couple’s home near Stonestown mall at 6:20 p.m. Sunday.

It raises the question of whether the Democrats would be better off to run Gabbie Gifford, the Congresswoman who was shot in the head by that mental case in Arizona.
They may both have brain damage and not do so well in unscripted interviews but Gifford has fewer negatives and, as far as we know, no association with the Muslim Brotherhood.

Hey that senile old bastard from AZ should have retired years ago and is an asshole. HOWEVER it is wrong to disrespect his actual Military Service. He did serve with Honor and Distinction. Denying that takes away from the argument about what a dick weed he has been since then

I hear you and I agree. His POW status is about the only thing respectable about his life. But his service record before that was less than impressive.
And as we all agree, his tenure in public office has been disastrous.

Jan 7, 1944 - The EZ Dog Journals
Bright and cool. 34th to Chiara. TFA on Porchia. British attacking Cedro tonight. SSF pressing ahead. Enemy arty comparatively heavy. One shell hit under a wire truck, driver and assistant unhurt. Old area shelled, Officer's mess tent location hit. New area quiet. Mac Dougal, 936, reported direct hit on their "eight-holer", the only convenience they had.
Yeah, yeah, the troops are taking heavy fire, but the really big news of the day? Our latrine was wiped out!

There are several layers here that require treading lightly.
On the plus side, yes, he served and was a POW.
On the negative side - which I do not see as off limits in discussing or criticizing - is his record while in service before becoming a POW. And it is verifiably less than stellar.
And without question and most importantly to all of us, his record in Congress has been a disaster for the nation.

His critics, of which I am one, would say he is an evil SOB pretending to be a Patriotic fuck up. I served too and I'm glad I wasn't near him.

Yeoman Rand. That is all.
Shatner wrote about her in Star Trek Memories. She was an adopted child and never felt truly "at home" anywhere. When she was hired for TOS, the costumer told her to lose 20 pounds, which she did by taking diet pills - which she got hooked on, as well as on alcohol. During the first season, she was basically ODing on pills and booze (as well as coping with a sexual assault from a Desilu executive), and they finally had to let her go. During the years after that, she spiraled down into, at last, a skid-row bum's life and open prostitution. But she finally turned her life around, got clean and until her death last May, lectured about addiction to organizations and at ST cons.

Yes, it is because the whole CHINA IS THE FUTURE bullshit was built on lies. One-party states do not, will not, and, in fact, CANNOT tell the truth.
In the end math catches up to you. Empty cities are not "production." Believing that you have some magic pass to insulate you from the business cycle does not produce a magic pass that insulates you from the business cycle. Economic policies that are intended to do two things, enrich an oligarchy and ensure its survival, will never work in the long run.
Draw lessons as necessary from the current state of U.S. affairs.

Ha.
There is absolutely no rhyme nor reason to market movements. If there is a connection to anything, and that's a big IF, the Fed rate could be an indicator of future market movement. Raised rates negatively impact the market, lowered rates positively impact the market.
The Fed recently raised rates and stopped the QE (which basically pumped trillions into the market to prop up stock prices).

Can't paste because it's a scan, but here's a quote: fron The Battalions by Capt Mark Reardon, "enginner support to TFA in the latter's drive for Porchina"
So, the TFA is something driving on the town of Porchina that the engineers are supporting -- and it so happens the 1108th was assigned to support II Corps Fifth Army.
So, that seems to be a contemporary usage.

A child born to a US citizen - no matter where he is born - is a US citizen. Article 1 of the Constitution.
Ted Cruz is eligible.
Period.
End of Story.
======
"Citizen" isn't the issue. "Natural born citizen" is the issue.
Natural born citizen == born on US soil by two parents both of whom are US citizens at the time.
Obama not eligible.
Cruz not eligible.
Rubio not eligible.
Jindal not eligible.
And the same rule should apply to the VP and every other person in the presidential line of succession who might become president in an emergency.
Or do we have to destroy the Constitution in order to save it?

If these words don't come back to haunt Merkel, as well as her own actions in destroying her own country, then Germany just deserves to be lost forever. Some people here were mentioning yesterday that Germany is full of citizens who feel "bad" about the atrocities of the past. That they have a lot to atone for...even generations later. I simply cannot fathom, not even for a nano second, having a mindset that would allow for what is the complete and literal annihilation if my own country. Germany is but one more country who has been served up on a platter to these barbarians, and all many of its citizens can say is that they have to make up for the past. Mind blowing in-freaking-sanity...on steroids.
