I don't think I've watched a SOTU since about 10 minutes into Obama's first one. Can't remember what he said, for the life of me, but I felt like I wanted to throw something through the TV and the wall behind it, so off it went.

Good Morning Morons. Today is Wednesday, January 13, 2016. On this day in 1910 the first public radio broadcast took place. It was a live performance of the opera Cavalleria rusticana sent out over the airwaves from the Metropolitan Opera House in New York, New York.

Iran says they have released the 10 American sailors who they captured when their boats lost power and drifted into Iranian waters. They have scored a major propaganda victory on Obama but he will call it another foreign policy success. They had demanded an apology from Obama and probably got one from the worthless turd.

Obama's SOTU address was his normal pack of lies and strawmen. President Obama, with an eye on cementing his legacy and countering the narrative on the Republican campaign trail, used his final State of the Union address Tuesday night to defend his economic record and, in stark language, downplay the threat from the Islamic State. ISIS is running rampant in the ME, terrorizing France, and some of its adherents here in the US are killing US citizens that the choom king uses as an excuse to void the second amendment with his pen and phone. As for the economy, we are in the second great depression no matter how many lies this despicable piece of shit spews. This further illustrates another amendment needed at that Art V convention. Eliminate the "state of the union" message from the Constitution. It has about as much to do with the real state of the union as a smear of dog shit on my shoes. But come to think about it, that is the current state of the union. http://tinyurl.com/h2hndys Posted by: Vic-we have no party at January 13, 2016 06:52 AM (t2KH5) 7

And it appears that she is now also anti-Trump and in favor of more open borders. I see that the RNCe probably wrote her response. Someone should tell her that the US allows in more immigrants than the rest of the Western world combines, and that doesn't include the illegals. BB say RINO Ryan wrote the response. It is clear to me that he is even worse than crying Boner.

So let me try and recap last night's SOTU by obama.
#1. Not my fault. #2. The economy is going great and don't listen to anyone who says different, they are lying. #3. Trumps sucks and is divisive so don't vote for him. #4. Not my fault. Did I miss anything? Posted by: The Great White Scotsman at January 13, 2016 07:29 AM (iONHu) 87

Posted by: Bruce at January 13, 2016 06:51 AM (8ikIW) 3 I don't think I've watched a SOTU since about 10 minutes into Obama's first one. Can't remember what he said, for the life of me, but I felt like I wanted to throw something through the TV and the wall behind it, so off it went.

On this day in 1910 the first public radio broadcast took place. It was a live performance of the opera Cavalleria rusticana sent out over the airwaves from the Metropolitan Opera House in New York, New York. Posted by: Vic-we have no party at January 13, 2016 06:51 AM (t2KH5) 5 Iran says they have released the 10 American sailors who they captured when their boats lost power and drifted into Iranian waters. They have scored a major propaganda victory on Obama but he will call it another foreign policy success. They had demanded an apology from Obama and probably got one from the worthless turd. http://tinyurl.com/zcfp2wt Posted by: Vic-we have no party at January 13, 2016 06:52 AM (t2KH5) 6 Obama's SOTU address was his normal pack of lies and strawmen. President Obama, with an eye on cementing his legacy and countering the narrative on the Republican campaign trail, used his final State of the Union address Tuesday night to defend his economic record and, in stark language, downplay the threat from the Islamic State. ISIS is running rampant in the ME, terrorizing France, and some of its adherents here in the US are killing US citizens that the choom king uses as an excuse to void the second amendment with his pen and phone. As for the economy, we are in the second great depression no matter how many lies this despicable piece of shit spews. This further illustrates another amendment needed at that Art V convention. Eliminate the "state of the union" message from the Constitution. It has about as much to do with the real state of the union as a smear of dog shit on my shoes. But come to think about it, that is the current state of the union. http://tinyurl.com/h2hndys Posted by: Vic-we have no party at January 13, 2016 06:52 AM (t2KH5) 7 Nikki Haley gave the Republican response.

I know Trump is your man, so I get it. But it would be useful for Trump to talk issues instead of spreading the smear about Cruz. Want to criticize the man? Okay, bring up the H1-B thing. But birtherism? It's a cheap shot and he's doing it because he sees Cruz is on the rise while he's relatively stationary. Every second spent on this puts Amnesty, Islam and the Clintons out of the spotlight and plays into the hands of the Democrats and GOP-e. My opinion. And Cruz is handling this very well IMHO.

It is sad to see what the State of the Union speech has come to under this president. Im old enough to remember when this was something that nobody could miss without being seen as an disinterested dolt.
Americans gathered to listen to President Reagans sunny praises of America or President Bushs impressive encouragements in times of war and crisis. Even Bil Clinton had his moments. For all his failures, he was a good communicator. Now, its just a crude stump speech, an uncreative amalgam of partisan jabs and sanctimony, that half of us rather avoid.

I don't like Trump giving oxygen to the birther smear, because it shows me a side of him that genuinely worries me - when (not if) he does drop to second or even third in the polls, rather than look in the mirror and say, "OK, I've got to knuckle down and get back on top," he'll roll out some idiotic left-wing / MFM-approved smear of the day to claw his way back on top. Trump and Cruz should be working together. Obviously, both want to be POTUS, but they should understand they're stronger by far when they're singing off the same song. And I found last night that the lovely Mrs P has drunk the Kool-Aid, calling Trump a "hatemonger."

That's because it isn't about having anything to do with the original series; It's about pushing acceptable leftist talking points. No doubt one of her her best friends "Georgie" will be someone in the process of sexual reassignment surgery.

front-runner than the Dems. Thanks South Carolina for another one of your political gifts to the Nation. -- Hey now, that's slightly not fair to us South Carolinians. I was very happy to vote for Nikki Haley in '10 and '14. She was a good, reliable, conservative governor with a lot of charm, for what it's worth. I'd even go so far as saying she was one of my favorite politicians nationwide. I saw a lot of star potential in her. She only recently started to really disappoint me with her war on the Confederate flag, which set off an avalanche of statue, flag and TV show removals. That, and her tack to the GOPe has left a bad taste in my mouth. As for Ms. Graham, yeah, you got me there. Posted by: Lady in Black....sigh at January 13, 2016 08:00 AM (pVkEV) 183
"And it appears that she is now also anti-Trump"
Which means that Haley is smarter than Trump supporters. Granted, that's not hard to do (it's easier than blinking), but it is nice when someone recognizes that Trump is full of crap and lying about his positions to trick low-info voters into supporting him. You'd think people that claim to be smarter than Obama cultists would recognize a guy that supports single payer, Planned Parenthood funding, and taking away 2nd Amendment rights to those on the No-Fly List actually isn't a conservative. It really amuses me to no end that Trump supporters accuse others of being RINOs and GOPe while backing a liberal moron with a résumé like that.

Seriously don't understand how anyone can say with a straight face that this Cruz Citizenship kerffluffle isn't a big deal.
I like Cruz but he was born in Canada of an American mother and a naturalized Canadian father, lived in Canada till he was 4 then moved to Texas and didn't think to renounce his dual citizenship until last year. He's a naturalized citizen, not a natural born citizen. Natural born is the highest standard and should NOT be a whatevs floats your boat, tomato-tomato. I am a natural born citizen, my father was a citizen, my mother was a citizen, I was born on US soil. If Cruz is natural born then natural born has no practical meaning.

Hollywood has never worked that way - they hire based on an actor's ability to draw attention, such as Tom Cruise playing vampire Lestat, or based on who they want to see on screen (or who puts out), so you get 23 year old hotties playing world famous neurosurgeons, lawyers, whatever who fall madly in love with men twice their age, and so on.

Good morning all.
From this date in 1944, near the Rapido River in Italy. Jan 13, 1944 - The EZ Dog Journal A hectic day. Cool. II Corps is to push off tomorrow night and apparently no one knows what he is to do. Our howitzer ammunition is cut to practically nothing. Ominously quiet. 2-36 moved to new positions behind Giacomo. One battery 2-77 moved to same general area. 2-36 = 2-36th Field Artillery Battalion 2-77 = 2-77th Field Artillery Battalion I don't know why the ammo is low. Possibly a logistical glitch, possibly some reallocation going on with the upcoming Anzio landing (although that's not for a couple weeks yet). Most likely just a momentary lag in the supply, because they don't ever seem to have a sustained shortage as evidenced by diary entries.

MetLife is seeking to divest itself of a large piece of its U.S. life-insurance unit as part of a plan to ease some of the capital burden it is expected to face under new federal regulations, the company said Tuesday. Under the plan, the company would spin off, sell or take public a business that has been at its core for decades: selling life insurance and other financial products to individuals and families across the U.S. The insurer is one of four nonbanks designated by U.S. regulators as systemically important financial institutions under the 2010 Dodd-Frank financial-regulatory overhaul law. The label means federal regulators believe the company could pose significant risks to the financial system should it collapse, and the law requires that those firms hold extra capital. MetLife has been adamant that its activities dont pose any risk to the system and is challenging the designation in federal court Marketwatch Posted by: Laurie David's Cervix at January 13, 2016 08:31 AM (kdS6q) 301

"I always thought it was a low yield nuke that affected a very large area."
There are conventional EMP weapons which use high explosive to initiate the pulse after first priming an electrical setup. The Russians are purported to have a track mounted weapon now which produces intense EMP without detonating an explosive of any sort. It first showed up in eastern Ukraine. Both sides have been making very aggressive use of drones for tactical scouting (helos haven't been a good bet in the intense MANPAD/SAM environment there). Ivan's new toy rolls up, turns on, and Ukrainian drones promptly fall out of the sky like hailstones. I would be doubtful if the Iranians have anything like this. Also, I don't think that heavy duty marine diesels are going to much notice any sort of EMP device. Posted by: torquewrench at January 13, 2016 08:39 AM (noWW6) 336

Possibly, but probably not. It's the "I Wanna Die For (a scum-sucking demon)" song, so when a guy (shaheed) posts a video of himself singing it on YouTube it means he's on the next flight to join ISIS (or what ever flavor mohammadan group he prefers).
That sounds about right. I'm really getting tired of being forced to learn all about a culture that wants to kill me. I don't want to learn about their gutter language or any of their so-called "tenets." I'd much rather focus on the good things in our own culture, what few are left, that is. I just want them to go away and leave all of us alone in their shithole countries. That's the best type of multiculturalism, IMO. The less I hear about it, the better.

"Monkey? The more inclusive term is Anthropoid-American."
At one point after a heavy multiday drug and booze rager, Hunter Thompson came to and realized that he had bought a live chimpanzee. Someone asked what he was going to do, and HST said he was taking the chimp on the plane back to Colorado with him. And had already bought two plane tickets. The response was, "Hunter, you can't *do* that kind of thing. They won't let you walk on board the plane with a chimp." HST said, "They wouldn't _dare_ call attention to my son's infirmities!"

Whoa. Another ex military guy says the Iranians might very well have used some sort of EMP device on those boats.
I didn't realize that this technology could be miniaturized like that. Ho - Lee - Shee - Ite. Posted by: J.J. Sefton at January 13, 2016 08:19 AM (zLP1L) Well, maybe, but I kind of doubt it. This is, the military learned the hard way back in the 1980s, when they started getting a lot of platforms with computerized control systems about the importance of proper RF shielding. They got blindsided when they started getting new systems like this (M1 Abrams tank and the UH-60 Blackhawk are two that I've heard stories about ) and discovered that their "drive/fly-by-wire" control systems were vulnerable to RF interference (and yes, that would definitely include EMP, which is just one hell of a big RF burst, whatever the source). Needless to say, after this was discovered, the services told their vendors to fix this problem, right f*cking now, which they did. I suppose it's possible that something slipped through the cracks on the engine systems of those riverine boats, but if so I doubt the Navy would own up to it, but will rather correct the problem PDQ now that they know about it. But this is a big "if", assuming the boats were in fact stopped by some kind of EMP device.

And because they won elections, just like a lot of Republican Senators, we might actually, finally be able to repeal Obamacare in 2017, if we get a good Republican into the White House. I fail to see the losing part here. Now, that's weapons-grade funny right there. Which spineless GOPe window-licker is going to dare repeal Barkycare in the face of sustained DNC-MFM screaming about "law of the land!" and sob stories about the millions of people who will be thrown off of their "affordable" plan because of the "greed" of the Koch Brothers and the insurance industry? And how will this titan of a president keep the backstabbing RINOs in his own party from sabotaging the effort? You know, had the GOP actually used the power of the purse allocated to them, Obamacare could have been stopped in its tracks years ago by simply refusing to fund it. But they were too worried about optics and afraid they wouldn't get invited to all the best DC parties, so they never even tried.

I voted for Haley both times. I don't know if I would do it again. This is her third strike.
The first one she signed a law into effect that her predecessor had vetoed twice because it allowed police to come on private property to arrest juveniles who were driving three-wheelers and like vehicles. The law is blatantly unconstitutional and a violation of the "implied consent" doctrine. Second strike was jumping on the racist NAACP call to remove the confederate flag that was put in place as a compromise with that same racist organization.

Watched S2 of Mozart in the Jungle last nite. It was a big winner at the Golden Globes. It's definitely cute and entertaining but the best? No. I can see why the judges favor it bc there is a french connection.
The lead actor is Gael García Bernal, a mexican actor who is pretty good. He's had a couple of Mexican/Spanish films that did well in the US market, too. Lots of other big name: Bernadette Peters, Malcolm McDowell, Saffron Burrows, etc. The music is good. It's about a symphony orchestra in NYC. Sex, drugs, no rock and roll. I think this was produced by Amazon who binged aired it. Two seasons but you can start with season 2 which you can find online for free.

385 Though Clock Boy's family moved to Qatar, since he got a scholarship to their "top school."
Posted by: Lizzy at January 13, 2016 08:51 AM (NOIQH) _______________________ It was reported that the family decided against moving to Qatar. "It's not Texas" was the reason given. (It's not going to allow them to lie and cheat and take advantage of stupid American taxpayers = "it's not Texas.") Posted by: TrivialPursuer at January 13, 2016 09:00 AM (a31sM) 417

Wife and I just finished the last episode of season 4 of Longmire last night.
Gonna be a long wait for season 5. I keep wondering when Henry is gonna catch something good for a change? I really like the character (Lou Diamond Phillips does an outstanding job), so I hope he doesn't get the GRR Martin treatment.

A co-worker moved to NH about 8 years ago (he works entirely from home). Real mountain-man survivalist type. Lives on some mountain out in the middle of nowhere. Full mountain-man beard, wears hunting clothes as daily attire, battered Jeep Wrangler, the whole deal.
He's also a pot-smoking Dead fan. He loves NH. Always trying to talk me into moving there. Posted by: WhatWhatWhat! at January 13, 2016 09:02 AM (HMt16) 422

>>Watched S2 of Mozart in the Jungle last nite. It was a big winner at the
Golden Globes. It's definitely cute and entertaining but the best? No. I can see why the judges favor it bc there is a french connection. Yeah it's cute, silly. I'll take them winning over something heavily SJW'ish like the Transgenger show that won last year. And unlike the HBO shows that usually win awards, Mozart in the Jungle also doesn't have soft-porno sex scenes and extreme violence. Posted by: Lizzy at January 13, 2016 09:14 AM (NOIQH) 426

Substitute "Clinton" for "Cruz" in the above scenario, and you'd get 100% Moron Approval. But since its Cruz...BIRTHER!!Posted by: Dark Helmet at January 13, 2016 08:32 AM (yvwr7)
Not true. The 'natural born citizen' requirement is largely the refuge of self-styled constitutional purists who latch onto this particular qualification as a way to demonstrate their intellectual superiority...and to attack a threat to their incredibly fucked-up idol: a shallow, narrow,comically grandiose meglomaniac with a combover who advocates single-payer healthcare and thinks his own daughter iseminently hittable--if she wasn't, you know, his daughter.

Cruz should take that Adobe created abortion that was floated as Obama's "birth" certificate, make some really bad edits to put his name on it then release it. Then when the MSM asks about it indicate he had released his birth certificate, the matter was settled and ask what the problem was.

You know what was better than not watching the SOTU? Having it muted in the background while getting a new gun and reading the manuel for preparing it to be used today. I bought a gift certificate for the gun for Christmas and it just got here....
And as a bonus the Homeowners meeting was being held next door--electing officers, (We didn't go to that either--couldn't care less) and they didn't seem to even realize it was the SOTU at all... I like my neighbors any of whom can have the headache of hearing complaints... we will try hard not to irritate them... they fight with each other over the stupidest stuff recently, life is too short for fighting with people you like. I hope Vance won but don't care really. Plus, we left half way to Texas Roadhouse for a steak and country music... Yes, last evening was pretty perfect. If you ignore Obama, he really does go away.
