Quite apart from her corrupt to the bone and deeper character, her soullessness, and her lying, she is really bad at politics.

I don't want to do that because I think it can only be helpful to the progressives. I cannot see how refighting the political fights of the GWB administration would be any help to anyone but the Democrats. The Obama administration has enough lying around to talk about and I don't want us getting distracted away from that.
But that's me. Some people like re-arguments.

Cruz, on the other hand, has been a reliable conservative and if he strays I think it would be easier to get him back in line.
=======
I agree with both.
This is my negotiation with the GOP: Either give me Cruz or I'll give you Trump.
OTOH, I'm long of the theory that a Trump Presidency would see a roll-back of Presidential power to levels not seen since James Madison. As both parties would unite in stopping him.

Now this is a painting. It looks like a painting, not some garish smear of mixed colors. You can see the brush strokes, as you should in a real painting. It doesn't look like a photograph. It's not pixilated. It's evocative; sunset, a pleasant end to a pleasant day.
No men marching off to war to do destruction and death. No howling mad mobs in the streets. No famous or infamous personage bathed in ego, posing proudly for posterity.
This is an example of God's Work as nature intended.

I've been ruminating on that too. Maybe an impeachment and removal of a sitting president would reset things. A balancing of powers. I know this much, as many enemies as Trump has on both sides his ass will be impeached in a heartbeat if he steps out of line, especially in the Republican Establishment controlled Senate.

Pat was in town several years ago for a book signing, and I took my son to meet him. Pat remembered me and we chatted, and he told my son, "You have a wonderful, talented mother." So nice of him. Kid was impressed.

The genetically modify mosquitoes so they can't breed, release them... and when they mate with 'wild' mosquitos.. no offspring...
So less Mosquitoes...
Safer in my mind to bring back DDT... but for that to happen the US Government would have to do something it NEVER does... and admit it was wrong.
Posted by: Don Quixote at February 16, 2016 11:32 AM (f7rv6)
I believe that sort of thing was tried years ago. They sterilized mosquitos with radiation, and then released them to mate with "wild" ones. Result, no offspring. Kind of hard to do that genetically, though. If you could create a "sterility" gene, how would you pass it on? And if you went part way, with a "low fertility" gene, then unmodified bugs would out-compete them in the available niches.

It took a village, of leftists. She just provided the propaganda.
There does seem to be evidence that massive overuse was a bad thing, and maybe actually did some harm to raptors. Heavily broadcasting it everywhere has other ramifications, in wiping out too many insects, upsetting other balances. But no doubt it is very useful for human habitats in the third world, and is still used but monitored by WHO. They need to use various attacks and not breed resistance, which exists in some insect populations.
As with most things, controlled moderate use is the key.

Dragonflies can be pretty and they're harmless but it takes an awful lot of dragonflies to impact mosquito populations.
Some people have bat houses in their yards to keep mosquitoes down.

Interesting, since it was mostly private vehicles in Colorado. It would be a good way to mess with a fragile supply chain though, and easy since the trucks are highly visible. Only argument against enemy action is it's smarter than the enemy usually is. Although who *else* would have a motive, warmists maybe?

So sad to learn this morning that author Pat Conroy has pancreatic cancer.
Years
ago I stage-managed a play written by a friend of his, and we hung out
at the opening night party. Such a sweet, funny man. His dad, who
(weirdly) prided himself as the Great Santini, hung out with the cast
and crew throughout the run.
Pat was in town several years ago
for a book signing, and I took my son to meet him. Pat remembered me and
we chatted, and he told my son, "You have a wonderful, talented
mother." So nice of him. Kid was impressed.
Anyhow, I hope he beats his awful cancer.

There was a story on the news this morning about a new cancer treatment where a person's T-cells were extracted, treated with some sort of chemicals to make them extra lively and then reinjected. Several people with terminal Leukemia apparently show no sign of cancer.
They said it might be tried on other cancers as well. The T-Cells attack the tumors and remove them.

Current thoughts on DDT include simply mixing it into paint.
It is incredibly potent, and the mosquitoes land on the painted walls and die.
It doesn't have to be used indiscriminately.

Except the raptor population was expanding due to louse and other infestations being killed. It turns out the researchers *faked their data* and withheld dietary calcium from the captive raptors to make the eggs weak. I was sick when I found that out since I did a presentation in elementary school about the dangers of DDT to raptor eggs.

When I was in high school (albeit private) it was in the handbook that our cars could be searched at any time. I had no problem with the policy then, and I have no problem with the policy now. We actually even had a situation where a slew of guns was found inside a student's boyfriend's vehicle and the school went into lockdown.
Also, to be fair...if there was a "fishing knife" in the car of a person of a particular persuasion, IYKWIM, I would want it treated with a zero-tolerance attitude as well. Just like I was 100% for treating clock boy with zero tolerance. If I have to feel it about the goose, I have to feel it about the gander.
Finally, if a zero-tolerance policy is what it takes to police the savages in our society...I am willing to go with it. Even if it means making a goof on a fishing knife every once in a while.

So in the news, Hillary is barking mad, literally, Trump's poll numbers
down, GOPe refuses to limit visas, and the left keeps going batcrap
crazy about appointing judges, proving they have no confidence of
winning in November.
You know, I've been thinking. If somehow the death of Scalia was
proven to have been murder, I bet the case would track back to the GOPe.
Who benefits most from his death? Jeb etc, because they would just
point to the supreme court and say "better our guy than the Democrats,
no matter how much you hate us!"
