Sunday Night Overnight Open Thread (9/11/16) [Mis. Hum.]
New York City's World Trade Center (WTC) was a complex of 7 buildings and opened for business on April 4, 1973. The "Twin Towers", 1 World Trade Center was 1,368 feet tall, 2 World Trade Center was 1,362 feet tall. At that time they were the tallest buildings in the world. Little did the architects and contractors know that their creation would be a target of destruction.
On February 26, 1993, a rented truck containing approximately 1,300 pounds of nitrate-hydrogen gas enhanced bomb laced with cyanide was driven to the WTC. It was parked in a garage beneath 2 WTC building. The truck bomb exploded at 12:18 PM. The explosion left a crater 200 feet by 100 feet. As a result of this explosion, 6 people were killed and over 1,000 injured.
There were a number of terrorists responsible for this attack. 6 of the 7 directly charged are currently in U.S. prisons. The devastation was a calling card left by Islamic terrorists.The WTC was repaired. On March 29, 1993 the WTC re-opens.
Fast forward 8 years and 197 days.
At 8:46 AM September 11, 2001 hijacked American Airlines Flight 11 is flown into the north tower of the WTC.
At 9:03 AM United Airlines Flight 175, another hijacked flight, is flown into the south tower of the WTC.
American Airlines Flight 77 the third flight hijacked that morning hit the Pentagon.
The 4th and final plane hijacked that morning was United Airlines Flight 93. It is believed that the intended target was the U.S. Capitol. This plane crashed at 10:03 AM near Shanksville, Pa. after passengers attempted to take control from the hijackers.
Flight 93 Memorial.
2,996 people were killed and over 6,000 were injured 15 years ago. 265 perished on the 4 planes. 125 died at the Pentagon and 2,606 in and around the WTC.
The excuses and rationalization for these attacks over the years have been amazing. One of the the excuses is that those "poor" middle eastern folks are poor and uneducated. The master mind of Al Qeda, Osama bin Laden certainly didn't fit into that category.
Using the fruits of his family's success - a personal fortune estimated to be in the hundreds of millions of dollars - he developed Al Qaeda into a militant trans-national network.
As the years roll by the conspiracy theories abound. Another reason to avoid FaceBook.
Make no mistake about what drives these people. It is hate. It is hate for everything Western. Rumiyah, Islamic State's online magazine, refers to Australia as "a land cloaked in darkness and corrupted by kufr, fornication, and all forms of vice." How do you win in the arena of ideas when these people want to conquer or kill you? The next time someone tells you that Islam is the Religion of Peace. You respond by telling them that they have been striking at the West for 1400 years.
Today's date is now known National Day of Service In case you missed Ace and Weirddave covering this story. Who the hell thought this was a good idea? Who the hell thought this was funny? Every action has an equal and opposite reaction. This.
Tonight's ONT brought to you by Love of Country.

When Spain had the terrorist attack in Madrid, they promptly voted in a Muslim sympathizer.
Seven years later, America did the same thing.
Now we are worried about transgendered bathrooms while terrorists are being shipped in from Syria by the President at record pace.

Sadly, 9/11 was the most successful attack islam ever carried out. Since then, they have gone from pretty much silent in America to building mosques liek they were going out of style. muslim immigration to America has shot through the roof. muslims have been given free reign to attack anyone, anywhere and Western elites bend themselves into pretzels trying to defend islam. A guy named hussein was put into the Oval Office - twice - even after being both ineligible and unqualified and having the most pathetic (not to mention criminal) first term one can imagine.
It's truly sad (and pathetic) but that's how things have played out.

I have mentioned before that my ex BIL's cousin was a NYC cop for many years and lost friends and coworkers on 9/11. She will not talk about that day.
She has moved back to Wisconsin to care for her mother, but visits NY frequently. She loves Trump and says all the cops do too.
They despise Hillary and hate, hate, hate DeBlasio.

My heart goes out to the survivors of all those who died on that day.
The House has passed a bill allowing them to sue Saudi Arabia, and although Obama is thinking of vetoing it, there are enough votes to override his veto, the first time that has ever happened during his presidency.
Also, two of the family members of those killed at Benghazi have filed suit against Hillary, and she hasn't bothered to have her lawyers respond. They may win by default.
Lots of good news, finally.

So can I. We lived in CT at the time and my husband worked in Manhattan. He had taken the day off but our kids left for school and didn't know he was at home. I'll never forget their voices when their schools allowed them to call home.
It doesn't seem so long ago.
It's a shock to me that my niece, born a year after 9/11 (on the 7th
- her parents were praying she would not be late and arrive on the 1
year anniversary of the attack) is now a freshman in hs.

The "National Day of Service" infuriates me. Maybe I missed it - Did Obama mention this in his final 9-11 statement like he usually does?
Obama tries to make every holiday a national day of service. Thanksgiving? Go work in a food kitchen and "give back". 9-11? Go clean up an inner-city park or paint a school.
It's intentional, attempting to tell us we should be tolerant on a day we need to remember, especially the anger.

Perhaps in honor of Fedzilla's perpetual ineptitude at the basic governmental task of ensuring things like this don't happen, they should have instead blurted out the immortal newscaster "Keep on fucking that chicken" line.

I hope I live to see it. One of the most important goals I hope to see

September 11th comes up often in the Long War between the West & islam.
9/11/1565 - the Turks lost the siege of Malta, and their bid to control the western Mediterreanean
9/11/1683 - The Turks lost the siege of Vienna, and the "Great War" against the Ottoman Empire began
9/11/1695 - The Turks lost the Battle of Zenta, which marked the effective end of the war
9/11/1877 - The Turks beat back the Russians at the battle of Plevna, but lost the subsequent siege, and with it, nearly all their European territory
9/11/1923 - The Turks burn the Greek city of Smyrna, up to 100,000 Christians died in the fire that lasted 3 days.

@ Jukin,#30.
We're of the same mind. With apologies to Mis Hum, who very somberly and respectfully posted tonight's heartfelt ONT, I'll ask whoever feels like taking a moment, to click on where I left a comment this morning, which pre-mirror's Jukin's, but expands on it a bit, as well.
Of course, this brought a response from a butt-hurt muzzie out there, and of course you know, I could not leave the gauntlet there, untouched and unresponded. So, I did.
Here's the post and thread:
http://neanderpundit.com/?p=7923
Plus, Og (the host there) is a Good Guy, and a blogger from the old days, who has never faltered in his steadfast goodness. Even though he doesn't comment here, he's a Moron in every right way of the word.
So, I don't mind asking y'all to make his sitemeter spin off the pin, just this once?
The exchange was too much to copy n' paste here, too. Got a 505 error when I tried, even edited.
Anyway, good thought, Jukin. Good thought.

The first thread here mentioning Hillary's collapse had over 1200 comments, 1500 on another, a Yahoo Canada story had 9000 comments, HotAir had over 200 comments which seems like a lot for them these days.
And the pop-up at LGF asking for donations as soon as you arrive at the site just encourages visitors, I'm sure.
In a way, it is sad, because after 9/11 I was looking a Muslim hate site and found that place, which rocked back then.

She came by the house later when she was able to get away much to our joy.

At work as a Fed Contractor (State Dept.). Saw the planes hit WTC on TV. Walked back to my office, co worker got another TV somewhere, turned it on and saw the Pentagon in flames. Gathered my stuff, the alarms went off at DoS, and got the hell out of there. Eventually got home by subway. The station at the Pentagon was closed but you could smell the burning. Got home, got a beer, and sat on my balcony. It was so quiet. I live near a metro station, near the beltway, and there is always air traffic here. Not that day. It was quiet.

Never liked "give back" because it assumes you were given something and owe it to give back to someone else. Almost every holiday statement Obama has made is about being tolerant, giving back, our duty to take care of others and how all religions are the same blah blah blah. Well, except for his Eid message, of course.

Before 9/11, muslims went pretty much unnoticed in society & by politicians.
You never saw muslim holidays on calendars before 9/11.
Before 9/11, islamic terrorists were a stock villain in movies.
9/11 worked out pretty well for them.

Frankly, I've never stopped blaming Bush for the incompetent way he conducted almost every aspect of the ME conflict, but the Democrats were (surprise) even worse.

I learned that from the Palestinians on 9/11. See, maybe I'm not such an Islamophobic knuckle-dragger after all.....

Does anybody remember when LGF highlighted "Tillies' story" a gripping account of a regular's experience on 9/11. She worked in Tower 2 and wrote of seeing the plane hit Tower 1, of taking the stairs all the way down, of seeing the 2nd tower fall and trying desperately to reach her apartment. She also wrote of the coworkers who were lost.
It was a permanent link on the sidebar there until the vindictive shit erased it, along with all the other things that once made that site worthwhile.
I remember Tillie made her way back to her hometown in Missippissi.

I have tried to put myself in the shoes of the guy who took the "Falling Man" picture.
On one hand, it's such an awful image - it encapsulates the hopelessness of those trapped in the building. It's raw, visceral...you want to look away in horror.
But the photographer was also helpless to do anything about it. He did the only thing he could - memorialize the last moments of a man who had to make a terrible, unfathomable choice. Preserve that moment for history, to help us never forget how monstrous this event truly was.
Side note: The AP photog who took that picture, Richard Drew, was also present at RFK's assassination. He certainly seems to have lived an interesting, if somewhat star-crossed, life.

I'll never forget one guy who looked absolutely drained and torn between hanging onto the last thread of hope and surrendering to despair, holding a picture of his wife.

My neighbor's husband was in the first tower struck....above the strike. He was able to call her and she drove to her kids' schools so they could talk to their father.
He was an amateur hockey player, and a few months later we attended a fundraiser hockey game to raise money for her kids' education. Some of the NY Rangers came and played.

Yes. Plus the article I read the other day said the

were not ruled as suicides because they were forced to jump by the acts
of their murderers. Shudder.

One of my college professors was a friend of a Bishop or Cardinal who had to give Mass for some of the 9/11 jumpers, and helped him write the sermons for it. They reached the same conclusion, that it couldn't be called suicide, because they were stuck in a no-win situation due to the actions of their murderers. He distributed a copy of the sermon for us to read, I believe on the first 9/11 anniversary. It was really something.

"Sure don't remember many Shinto-American terrorist attacks 15 years after Pearl Harbor."
It would have been incredibly funny if in some alternate reality there had been a Republican president other than the hapless Dubya.
Who after 9/11 had announced that he was immediately and totally halting all immigration of Muslims, and interning in remote interior camps all Muslims currently in the USA.
Citing as specific policy precedent for that action what the great Democratic hero Franklin D. Roosevelt had done with Japanese immigrants during WWII.
Wouldn't *that* have been a firecracker in the henhouse?

That reminds me, time to check on Chuckles' GFM campaign.
His goal is 10k and he set up the campaign about 16 months ago.
Today his campaign is at, *drumroll*, $4,739. Over a year in and he's still not half way.
Back in the old days, before Chuckles went insane, he'd probably have met that goal in a month, tops.

When my neighbor and friend died at the trade center investigators weren't able to find any part of his body to bury. They identified some of his DNA a few years ago, but that's it.
We all try not to get stuck on it though; what's the point? His family is thriving, thank God, which is what would matter most to him and we all remember him vividly and talk about him frequently. His youngest child wrote her college application essay last year about her loving relationship with her father, via her family memories. It just about broke my heart to read it, but it was a happy message she was trying to convey.
Of course, other families in my town weren't so resilient. And some lives have never rebounded from the attack and those terrible days and weeks that followed.

Every murdered victim wasremembered as an individual, with interests, hobbies, loved ones, friends, with no political agenda or bias involved.
For once, the Times did something decent.

I was at work in N. VA and heard about the 1st plane as I went into a meeting. Came out of the meeting and everyone was talking about the second plane as well as the rumors of additional planes out of contact (additional targets). A lot of people I worked with had spouses, etc, in DC, such as SS agent, producer for a cable news network who was freaking out because she was sent to the national mall for a live report. It was crazy with no internet and cell service (overloaded) and not knowing whether to go further west in case more was to come after Pentagon attack (and stay at friends) or attempt heading back home to Arlington. Got home only minutes before they closed 66 and then watched them airlift people from smoking Pentagon from our living room window (was on 18th floor facing DC). Just sat there in disbelief and horror waiting for the next strike, listening to the sirens of numerous emergency vehicles all over the place. We even watched Bush's helicopter arrive at the WH surrounded by 8 (?) other helicopters. Will never forget.

Well, here's my 9/11 story.
It was my freshman year of college, not even 2 weeks into being away from my family for the first time.
I had an 8-8:50 am class, but I went to breakfast beforehand. The TVs in the dining hall all had different programs on, ESPN, local news, The Today Show. I distinctly remember watching the Today Show and they showed what a beautiful September day it was.
Went to class, which went as usual. We were dismissed a bit late, maybe around 8:52-53 and as we were leaving, another student came in the classroom, and I vaguely heard him talking to the professor about something that had happened, but thought nothing of it.
I walked back to my dorm, and as I walked to my room, I noticed some students gathered in the lounge, watching TV, but I didn't pay attention to what was on the TV. It struck me as odd, as most students had their own TV, so the lounge was rarely used, and that early in the morning, it seemed very, very strange. Again, thought little of it.
When I walked into my room, around 9:00, my roommate had it on. I was there in time to see the second plane crash into the second tower. She left maybe a half hour later, and I went out to the lounge to watch with everyone else, and then news broke about the Pentagon.
I had an 11 o clock biology lab, that I was certain was going to be cancelled. It wasn't. The last coverage I saw was the North tower collapsing.
I remember hearing rumblings about flights being halted, flights currently in the air being re-directed, and major buildings being evacuated. The most distinct feeling I remember, other than grief of course, was how much I wanted to go home, how much I wished I was with my family. I worried about a nuclear bomb, or terrorists targeting a military center near my home.

I, too, consider the left the much worse enemy. Leftists everywhere think we deserve to be punished, and that's just fine with them. They can mea culpa and virtue signal all over the place because, after all, it's statistically unlikely they or theirs will be among the victims.
The rest of us can just die, as collateral to their stupid America is Bad cause. They figure we have it coming. (For being such deplorables, both individually and as a country.) I really hate them for that. I really do.

Until all of those supposedly moderate Muslims who are supposedly integrated into our society come together as a group and state unequivocably that they will work tirelessly to end the murderous reign of their compatriots who are, in fact, doing exactly what their "religion" tell them to by murdering us and ours, I will not trust a single one of them to even clean my toilets, let alone work alongside me or live in my neighborhood. And if that is racist or zenophobic, so be it. No Muslims have paid even an ounce of their blood to atone for the murders of Americans on American soil, let alone the brutal attacks which have taken place overseas.
Police your own, then tell me you belong to a religion of peace. It has yet, over the past 1400 years, to demonstrate even a remote interest in peace or harmony. Until then, fuck them all and may they rest in hell for eternity.

Make no mistake about what drives these people. It is hate. It is hate for everything Western.
I would have to respectfully disagree with this. It isn't so much their hate (though they have that) but their thirst for utter power and total domination. That is what the koran outlines more than anything. The drive to take over the world and to make non-muslims sorry they even exist. It isn't specifically anti-Western. It's generally anti-non-muslim, which is even worse.
They are jealous of us because of our strength and because they have been getting their asses kicked over and over and over by a pipsqueak Western nation with so few people that it defies reason. They are shamed by their weakness (as well they should be) and the only way for them to alleviate their shame is through revenge.
But the muzzie thirst for state power and total control has little to do with the West. If the West didn't exist the muzzies would still be attacking every non-muzzie around the same way.

Having seen Obama's aerial motorcade fly past while he's been out here snorking up money from Silly Valley oligarchs, a gaggle of ten-ish rotorcraft is entirely ordinary for him.
Including V-22 Ospreys, one of the most expensive things to fly in the entire Pentagon inventory.
I worked out the cost per flight hour figures. Staggeringly high.

Waitaminute...I certainly have big problems with several aspects of Bush's handling of post-9/11, mainly the creation of the Dept of Homeland Security and several aspects of the Patriot Act and the notion of long-term nation-building.
But to say he squandered trust and good will...FEH! There was an enormous segment of this country on the Left that never gave him any trust or good will at all. I was in college when 9/11 happened, and the knives were out for the GOP almost instantly.
And look at the constant obstruction at least from 2003 onwards -- it's a miracle he was able to pull the surge off that left things relatively stable until Obama came in and trashed it all in the name of peace-- the Vietnam story all over again. If the Left in this country hadn't been waiting since the beginning for the slightest misstep, we'd probably have used a heavier hand but be in a much better position now -- Iraq, too.

My dad was just over the Atlantic leaving from Paris when the order was made to ground flights. Fortunately, his flight had not reached the point of no return but the plane still had to fly around for a while (those jets aren't engineered to land with an almost full fuel supply) before returning to Paris. Perhaps surprisingly the Parisians were very welcoming to Americans who wound up stranded there.
Me, I was at Maryland at the time and the news did not hit until later when I got home from campus. It was a double-whammy for Maryland because the attacks took the lives of students/alumni and just two weeks later a nasty tornado ripped through campus.

Drudge has had a signal, a bit of a secret code, to alert various
people that something massive is about to go down. People have paid him
to give them a few hours head start, so to speak.
Today for the first time ever he has used that signal.

Regarding the body double, take a look at any recent video of the Hillary you've come to know and love, then look at the Chelsea's apartment "Hillary". To my admittedly untrained eye, I'd say close but no cigar. There's one good left side profile that just doesn't look like Hillary at all.

For all of the Bush bashers here, please remember that while he made poor choices, he did actually know wrong from right. His instincts in the aftermath of 9/11 were spot on, and we were much assured and calmed by his specific actions. What he did after? Not so much, but at least he tried.
Consider what the alternative would have been.
President Gore? He would have hid under a table until his mommy showed up to tell him what to do and change his underpants.

Walked past a TV with the burning towers without thinking about it, and thought they must have been doing a retrospective on the last WTC bombing. Grabbed a coke, sat down, drank a few sips... and once the caffeine hit my bloodstream and I absorbed the news, I promptly sprayed the living room TV.
Ran to get my mom with a "holy shit, did you see this", and that's when she laid the rest of it on me, the Pentagon attack, that there was at least one more plane in the air (nobody knew it'd gone down yet), etc.
We spent the rest of the day trying to get in contact with a family friend in DC who worked in the Pentagon at the time, and thanks to the way the phone system crashed, we weren't able to find out anything until about 10 PM that night. It also took every ounce of persuasive power my mom could muster to keep me from running off to the nearest military recruiter.

170 earlier ace said 'I think she's going to drop out -- and Trump can't beat any other person.' but don't you think voters would punish the democrats for switching candidates so late? of course i don't mean dems but the so called 'independents' and liv - who would they replace her with?

The Dims are floating trial balloons out there through David Schuster. His last tweet was from a dim who said Hillary has to be the one to make the decision to drop out and that they are in uncharted political waters.
I believe the dims are at a catch-22 situation. If she drops out for health reasons then the party and media will get hammered by Trump and Americans because they would be viewed as lying and covering up for her. If she stays in she is lost.
Trump is running unopposed.
Today was evidence of God's work exposing evil for His Children to see one last time. He smote her where it would hurt her the worst.

Question: Is there a possibility that they *planned* on Hillary's event today and she is going to be permanently replaced? Because she is not alive any more?
/yes, I know this is super crazy. many apologies.

Regarding the body double, take a look at any recent video of the
Hillary you've come to know and love, then look at the Chelsea's
apartment "Hillary". To my admittedly untrained eye, I'd say close but
no cigar. There's one good left side profile that just doesn't look like
Hillary at all.

Here is the quandry faced by the DNC:
If they decide to ditch Hill and Hill doesn't want to go quietly into the night (and I can't imagine she would agree to it) and they override her to select Biden or Kaine the womyn who had their hearts set on voting for the First Vagina President will be angry at the prospect of having to vote for a white guy. I can already hear the sound of millions of Cat Ladies screeching. Some would get over it; others would not, especially if Hill resists. They can't afford to alienate womym any more than they can afford to lose the black vote.
They could, I suppose, put in Corey Booker, but the 2nd black president is not a breakthrough like electing the first woman would be.
They engineered things so Hill could be coronated. It's not going to be easy to dump her now.
Live by identity politics, die by them too.

I disagree. Cheney and Rumsfeld were key. Bush's first term was pretty good - though I lay it on his feet to be taking the most complicated, convoluted, stupidest way of dealing with the swift invasion victory of Iraq. It was his second term, when Rummie and Cheney were no longer his main advisors, when Bush really went off the rails into leftist-land. It was when Colon Powell and then Condi Rice became his goto advisors and all of their bullshit - though, again, Bush had this tendency from the start, anyway, and was always a bit at odds with Cheney and Rumsfeld. Also the Valerie Plame crap that was allowed to drag on for over a year ... which Powell conveniently said nothing about and Bush later DID nothing about.
It was Bush's second term that was a total disaster. His first was pretty decent, though he only did the minimal possible in fighting the muzzies and never got around to dealing with Iran, at all.

"I can see it, even expensive as it was, as a valuable special operations
machine. It can do something special. But if you just need troops or
cargo schlepped around there were/are several other good helos in the
class that could do so at much, much less."
In the context of escorting Marine One with the POTUS aboard, a case could perhaps be built for having an Osprey around as high-speed Presidential medevac. (Or to get out of the blast radius in case of inbound nuke faster than a helo could do it.)
They don't need four or five of the things all accompanying the aerial motorcade. Especially when the Ospreys are having to slow way down to operate at speeds compatible with the actual helicopters that they are accompanying. The rotor disk loading of the Osprey platform makes it grossly inefficient in that airspeed regime.

I'll briefly chime in with my 9-11 memories. I was in highschool and will never forget sitting in class watching it, while my teacher had his feet up on his desk reading a newspaper.
I wanna say I remember him saying before the first tower fell; "Those building are made pretty sturdy to withstand impact."
Then they fell, I was tripping balls all day. I only wish I could say it was from taking some drug, not because of a very dark day in American history.
God Bless.

Consider what the alternative would have been.

Once again, I realize that this sounds insane but... the body double makes sense. It did not seem like Hillary to me when she came out of that building. And she does look significantly lighter- not sure why they didn't give the double padding.
All of this is so bizarre. Not even sure if the person who will be attending the debates will be Hillary.
Also, I saw some open palm comparisons of this woman and Hillary. They're not the same; Hillary has a pretty short life line, and this woman has a long one. Very different hand lines.

The Dims are floating trial balloons out there through David
Schuster. His last tweet was from a dim who said Hillary has to be the
one to make the decision to drop out and that they are in uncharted
political waters.
I believe the dims are at a catch-22 situation. If she drops out for
health reasons then the party and media will get hammered by Trump and
Americans because they would be viewed as lying and covering up for her.
If she stays in she is lost.
Trump is running unopposed.
Today was evidence of God's work exposing evil for His Children to
see one last time. He smote her where it would hurt her the worst.

If POTUS goes to a non-Dem, there's no reason not to jail Hillary, Loretta Lynch, Eric Holder, the executive team at the IRS, etc. etc. etc. They've been playing the Big Lie and stonewalling for eight years, because they thought the party would never end, and there's enough dirt to put the lot of 'em in the pen.

At the time I liked Bush, and even while in retrospect my views on several aspects of him have soured, I still generally like the guy.
As I see it now, the problem overall was the GOP establishment. Yes, Bush was a big part of bringing that back, and I don't like that. But as far as establishment people go, if we were going to have one of them, we could've done worse (cf. GOP 2000 primary candidates)

I don't see how anyone can look at that video and see fainting or pneumonia. It looks so obvious that she has a serious neurological problem. It looks like it would look if you were moving someone both of whose legs had fallen asleep.
If you focus on the people around her, who are helping her into the van, there is something very strange. No one looks in the direction of her face. It would be natural to look at the person you are trying to help, especially to say "we are going to move you to the van, get ready" but nothing of the sort happens.
Instead it is like they were moving a wax dummy.

He seems to have bought into the whole Religion of Peace BS. I am sure he still believes that to this day. He fought a politically correct war based on that flawed sentiment and lost it bc of that. He had 8 yrs to win it and end it. He should never have left the outcome to Obama.
I'm not arguing that Gore would have been preferable.

They've been building an aura of slime around him since he stepped into the public eye, and he simply hasn't done enough to dispel it. He'd have been a great candidate 20 years ago, but our NeoPravda media would chew him up and spit him out.

They've been building an aura of slime around him since he stepped into the public eye, and he simply hasn't done enough to dispel it. He'd have been a great candidate 20 years ago, but our NeoPravda media would chew him up and spit him out.

Being a free and independent people, we are not obligated to defend a president because he is of our ideological tribe. We can discuss him freely. There is no moral obligation to support one set of philosophical, much less political values.
That's what "alt-right" is all about.

For the record, as exasperated as I sometimes was with Dubya, I have no regrets about voting for him when I consider who he ran against. I have no doubt that he is, at heart, a good man. The troops loved him.
The left and the media were on a mission to destroy him ever since the SCOTUS decision re: the election. They eventually succeeded. I just wish he had fought back instead of ignoring them.

Posted by: ThunderB at September 11, 2016 10:58 PM (TqfuN)
If Hillary is forced out, then that new candidate will have to start fundraising from scratch. Hillary will have to return all of her donations to the donors, she cannot give any of that money to the new nominee.
All of the advertising that she bought will be cancelled, and all of those ads will be available for purchase to everyone else.
All of the things and people that were paid for with the "Primary" money, will now have to be paid for with "General Election" money, and there will be little to nothing for advertising.
Also, Bill and Hillary have a huge slush fund and cadre of lawyers that will take the Democrat party down if they have to. Remember, it's all about the Clinton's money.

Patriots could go 4-0 without Brady. This was the toughest game on the schedule and honestly I can't believe our offense held up to the Cards' D. Dolphins and Bills are always a tough out but it's the Texans who will be the toughest game in this stretch. Then it's #12's turn to show the league what deflated balls look like.
Big ups to Larry Fitzgerald in this game. I was yelling "make it stop" at my TV on the last Cards drive. Unreal catch and runs from 11.

He seems to have bought into the whole Religion of Peace BS. I am sure he still believes that to this day. He fought a politically correct war based on that flawed sentiment and lost it bc of that. He had 8 yrs to win it and end it. He should never have left the outcome to Obama.
...
Yep, and he did win it, but politely and ethically left the status of forces up to Obama.
In hindsight, what we all need to keep in mind after the last 40, 50 years or so is that the Dems have gone communist, and will deliberately lose wars just for political reasons. It's the definition of evil, and they WILL take that road every time if they think they can benefit politically.

Nobody stopped Bush from, perhaps, saying that Barky's World Traitor Tour for the first two years - where he went around the world and blamed everything on America - was un-American. In fact, such a display by the President should be grounds for impeachment.
There was tons of stuff Bush could have spoken about. But he didn't. And this was not with any "normal" Presidency. This was with an America-hating traitor trying to prostrate America before the world - mostly the third world.

Anyone here can go back to the joy and jubilation of the last mid-terms. That lasted all of 2 weeks if that before it was business as usual.
The US is bankrupt. There's $90 to $200 Trillion in unfunded liabilities that will never be paid, the dollar as a reserve currency is being eroded, the debt is rocketing higher and higher. I think Trump may be the only one who could start doing what's needed to fix things while not giving a f$ck about the howling from the media.

But you know they are a religion of peace - that's why everyone from a Christian nation is stampeding to immigrate to a Muslim nation. If it were otherwise, then the immigration would be the other way around.
Everyone is trying like heck to get away from evil white people and Christians, don't cha know!

And we haven't even hit the bursting of the debt bubble yet. The US still owes $90 to $200 TRILLION in unfunded liabilities that will NEVER be paid.
And we think people are pissed off now. Wait until all of the socialist promises turn to dust.

I have a pension, a paid for house, and other assets. If social security goes belly up I'll be okay. My nephews and their wives, who are pro democrat and liberalism, are going to be completely screwed, when whatever has to happen to social security, happens.
And liberals like them are not saving for retirement. The people I know who are putting money into their own retirement funds seem to be the conservatives.

Bush's biggest failing was never pushing back so much as an inch on the leftist full-court press against him. He was rendered so toxic by the nonstop attacks, it poisoned the republican brand for the next two elections. He took the high road and it got him nowhere. THAT is what laid the groundwork or candidate Trump.

293 #239 agreed...and Trump, whatever he really is, is no conservative.
============
297 Bush never cared about Conservatism.
============
One thing that is clear is that there is not now agreement on what "conservative" means.
GOPe intellectuals consider Bush to be a conservative, and believe that mass immigration and free trade with countries to which our factories have moved is "conservative." Paul Ryan is counted as a conservative by these folks. Under this reasoning, securing the border and enforcing immigration laws runs counter to conservatism.
And Trump's core message, negotiating trade deals for the benefit of American workers rather than for the ease of global businesses and formulating immigration policy from the perspective of the best interest of America as a nation, is considered not conservative, but rather populist or nationalist. But to me, that is conservative.

Eh, the important thing is to win. Win at all costs. Obama's legacy is at stake here. I would not be surprised if they want Hillary to have a public breakdown just as much as we do to justify shoehorning in someone else, like good ol' Joey Biden.
If you believe that Hill and Bill are ruthless, and have the goods on too many people to be defied (especially at the risk of an untimely death), then the only way to get her removed without incurring her wrath is on a gurney, right?

Okay, from here on out I am going to have Scott Adams (the Dilbert cartoonist) pick my lottery numbers.
He wrote this on April 29.
Under normal circumstances it would be deeply irresponsible for a cartoonist to give a medical diagnosis to a stranger he hasn't met. I trust you to ignore my medical opinions. I do this to build a record of my persuasion-related predictions and to show you the method.
I give Clinton a 50% chance of making it to November with sufficiently good health to be considered a viable president. Judging from her performance on the campaign trail, she is managing her health effectively to get the job done. But I would think most people who run for president end up sacrificing their health in some measure. The big question is how much buffer she has left.

Which makes my point that the conservative label has been stretched to mean so many different, mutually exclusive things that it has essentially become meaningless.
Now given the poor brand recognition that conservatism has nationally, the question becomes, "so why don't we just let those a-holes keep it and find a new label to put on the box of our ideas?"
We're not conservatives in the historical sense, and we never were. As Reagan once put it, our ideas are still the newest thing in the history of man's relation to man, the idea that people can govern themselves without the input of a small elite in a distant capitol.
We're still the radicals.

275 I don't see how anyone can look at that video and see fainting or pneumonia. It looks so obvious that she has a serious neurological problem. It looks like it would look if you were moving someone both of whose legs had fallen asleep.
If you focus on the people around her, who are helping her into the van, there is something very strange. No one looks in the direction of her face. It would be natural to look at the person you are trying to help, especially to say "we are going to move you to the van, get ready" but nothing of the sort happens.
Instead it is like they were moving a wax dummy.
Posted by: Scalia's Ghost at September 11, 2016 11:29 PM (fgOnp)
I don't know whether she has a neurological problem. We do know that her campaign lied to us today when they first said she became overheated and then later came back with the pneumonia excuse.
Even if she does have pneumonia, the Democrats had no intention of revealing it. Today's events forced their hand.
I believe that her underlying health problems, whatever they may be, are more serious and longstanding than pneumonia caused by allergies.
I'm not too surprised either that they tossed her into the van with little or no discussion. It was a crisis situation and their job is to get her to physical safety, not talk her through things. Besides, she was semi-conscious at best.

I'm glad you've asked for my thoughts regarding Hillary's medical event today. I've contacted the commission for presidential debates to ensure HEPA air filters are installed to remove any allergens from the air, or pneumonia bacteria, to help Hillary breathe easy and protect the public in attendance.
Further, I've asked that the temperature be lowered to 60°, and a fountain of Gatorade installed on her podium, to hell ensure she doesn't suffer another overheating scenario.
Finally, a screen will be installed on stage to allow her significant personal medical staff to be nearby for any medical emergency while avoiding any negative optics. An ambulance will be on standby, with law enforcement blocking off the route to Chelsea's apartment, where Hillary goes for treatment after all significant medical emergencies.
With the measures in place, I feel confident we can avoid distracting the public from these silly health rumors, and allow the candidates to be chosen based on the issues. Thank you.

I agree with that.

But the media does not play by Queensbury rules.
Trump is not a gentleman, and thank God because that is not what we need right now. We need a fighter.

Look at Drudge's picture choices and arrangements. I've read several articles on the fun he has with pictures. Ann Althouse sees all sorts of sublimal messages in his picture arrangements.
Right now, he's got a picture of Donald with his thumb up and pointing up RuPauls bottom side.
I don't notice shit like that, because I don't pay it much attention, but damned if Althouse didn't convince me that indeed Drugde has fun with pictures.

I'm a structural engineer.
There are only a handful of structures built the way the towers were built--with a very strong, very redundant exterior skin. They effectively had a nearly continuous external steel load-bearing wall.
No one builds this way because it's stupid expensive, fairly inefficient, and has tiny window openings. The WTC architect was reportedly afraid of heights, and it was his decision to create a structure with small windows and a strong exterior wall to create a sense of safety for the building's users.
Here's my point: Virtually no other structural system would survive the kind of damage those towers took, plus the fire, for as long as those towers stood. The unintended and very favorable result of the architect's selection of structural system was ultimately the preservation of life as there was substantial time for those who could to make an exit from those buildings. I'm calling it Providential until someone proves otherwise.
Final thought; even though I ought to have been able to look objectively at those towers and know they were coming down, I was the same as everyone else that day: glued to the set and just hoping they wouldn't, and as shocked as anyone when they did.

367 I'm not too surprised either that they tossed her into the van with little or no discussion. It was a crisis situation and their job is to get her to physical safety, not talk her through things. Besides, she was semi-conscious at best.
Posted by: Michael the Deplorable TEXIT Hobbit at September 11, 2016 11:49 PM (nvMvs)
I would agree with this if she were under attack. She was not under attack. It was not a security crisis, it was a health crisis. No one was shooting at them. And the place was packed with LEO. They didn't need to quickly toss her into the van like a sack of potatoes.
I suspect it was because she was unconscious and unresponsive. Or it may be that, as rumored, subordinates are instructed not to look her in the eyes.

You think you have a pension -- if it's from the government, they're bankrupt; if it's corporate, it's "underfunded" [i.e. bankrupt]. You have a house, but the state levies property taxes to enjoy what you supposedly own. Hopefully, your "other assets" aren't stocks, bonds, or products of the financial industry -- 'cause all of those are only holding their price points because the Fed is printing money to buy them.
OF COURSE, liberals are not saving for retirement -- they intend to confiscate their well-being from you through sheer political power. Why should they set anything aside when they figure you'd only seize it if you ever gained power? -- that's what they've been doing.

If you were going to use a "secret Bat Signal" type of thing, the way it would work is this. You'd have a pre-arranged meeting or "dead drop" point. You send the signal. When your intended recipients see the signal, that means go to the pre-arranged meeting place or drop point, where the actual information would be given.
For example: All right boys, you will drive by my house every day. If you see the curtains of the left-most window half pulled, with a flower pot on the sill in the middle, that's the signal.
When you see that signal, you will go to a phone booth at the corner of blah-blah and so-and-so, at precisely 8PM that evening. You will receive a call shortly after. That will give you instructions. The instructions might be code words for some pre-arranged meeting place.
I'd make the call and simply say "Blue", which means we meet at Meeting Place A. If I say "Red", we meet a place B, etc, etc.

If Bush said anything, the story would become 'Racist Bush hates Black President'.
If Bush endorsed Trump, it would be 'Trump intends to continue Bush's War in Iraq.'

I'm a structural engineer.
There are only a handful of structures built the way the towers were built--with a very strong, very redundant exterior skin. They effectively had a nearly continuous external steel load-bearing wall.
No one builds this way because it's stupid expensive, fairly inefficient, and has tiny window openings. The WTC architect was reportedly afraid of heights, and it was his decision to create a structure with small windows and a strong exterior wall to create a sense of safety for the building's users.
Here's my point: Virtually no other structural system would survive the kind of damage those towers took, plus the fire, for as long as those towers stood. The unintended and very favorable result of the architect's selection of structural system was ultimately the preservation of life as there was substantial time for those who could to make an exit from those buildings. I'm calling it Providential until someone proves otherwise.
Final thought; even though I ought to have been able to look objectively at those towers and know they were coming down, I was the same as everyone else that day: glued to the set and just hoping they wouldn't, and as shocked as anyone when they did.

It also meant that you could have no interior walls aside from the elevator shaft.
Of course, take out floors keeping the exterior walls in place and eventually the walls will buckle and the building will collapse down on itself, which is what happened.

Thanks for that perspective.
We took our little boy there in ~1998 to the restaurant, Windows on the World. The top floor windows were floor to ceiling, bigger than those in the rest of the tower. When we got off the elevator, our son ran straight to the closest window, which made my sister-in-law gasp. It was a scary view at first, but the kid loved it. He was thrilled with the entire evening we spent there.
Of course the attacks were horrifying to any normal person, but that tiny connection made it a little more personal to our kid.
I'm still pissed about Munich 1972, so Hillary was a nice distraction from the forboding I usually feel on this date. I always expect something bad to happen.

very OT :
A strange, difficult day. Found out the an extended family member was abused by her father, or at least claimed to be. She was seriously messed up, so I'm not sure what to believe.
Also found out that my Aunt died. We have a very small family, and after my Mom died, she, her husband, and both of her kids- my cousins- totally dropped me. Calls not returned, no holiday cards, I don't exist. Never told me when her husband died, and to be honest, it was a strange coincidence that I found her death notice.
The funeral is tomorrow. I don't like these people, they have no use for me [black sheep conservative vs. wanna be limousine liberals]. I was not invited to the funeral, and do not plan on going.
Is this the right thing to do? I have had NO contact with any of these people in four years.

No structure over just a few floors has interior load bearing walls. You see them in wood and CMU, but with steel and concrete the goal is to open up the usable floor.
But most steel and concrete frames have discrete load bearing elements--individual columns. When one column gets removed, a large area of floor is suddenly unsupported, and it's unlikely in the extreme that the resulting distribution of load to the other columns can be sustained.
This is why Murrah collapsed to the degree it did (Oklahoma City bombing). The bomb was not enough to take out 75% of that frame, but it took out some of it, and the rest fell like dominoes.
The WTC had column "trees" as the exterior skin--short, squat columns with "branches" connecting each to its neighbors. It had an incredible ability to share and redistribute load around those awful, gaping holes. Seriously, there are almost zero structures built like that. I once heard there were three total, but we're going by my memory of second hand information. Point is it's jaw-dropping the rarity of that system, and everything else would have pancaked virtually instantly (again, think Murrah for a more typical instance).

Most buildings, nearly all, are overbuilt for their purpose. That is built into the Building Code. Redundancy means safety, and after all the various collapses and building failures, even under duress, the Code recognizes that.
A building like the WTC would have had extra scrutiny when built, and any architect and/or engineer who stamped any drawings or specs would have demanded that it were overbuilt in order to stave off lawsuits, etc.
Yes, lives were saved by that, but by the same token, it took a completely unexpected structural disaster to bring them down. One that should never have happened.
I fear for many other buildings and occupants in the future, because these Muslim fucks will not stop trying. They hate us more than they love their children or their lives. You cannot reason with that, just kill it with fire, from space if necessary, and so far we have not had the resolve to do so.

The first time I visited NYC, I had a drink at Windows on the World. The view was spectacular.
And it was a place where out-of-towners could gape at the skyline. I wanted to look up at the skyscrapers when I was on the ground, but stop and gaze up to admire the Manhattan canyons and you'll get run over by the crowd. You'll also advertise that you are a Tourist From the Sticks.
Funny, I immediately started walking around twice as fast as I normally walk - just keeping up with the sidewalk traffic.

Drove to JFK to go to work the night of the 10th for a JFK-GEO trip that left at midnight. Always marveled at the twin towers going across the Verrazano bridge. Flight to Georgetown, Guyane was uneventful, arriving at around 6 am. Quick turn and we headed back north to JFK. Just south of Puerto Rico ATC told us to contact company. They informed us that New York ATC had closed their airspace due to the two airliners hitting the twin towers and we were to proceed to Baltimore. Shortly thereafter we were told all US airspace was closed and we turned back south. Headed back to comply with ATCs instruction to all aircraft on frequency to land at the nearest suitable airport which would have been San Juan. Newly minted captain, a total company man, called the company and asked what should he do? I argued that we had no choice but to land in San Juan. Company wanted us to return to GEO to save $ and not have to pay for hotels for the pax. While he was kissing the companies ass ATC came on and said all aircraft on the frequency Land NOW! Asskisser wanted to go all the way back to GEO and I did everything but grab the controls to follow ATC to Land Now at San Juan. I asked to hold in San Juan airspace to try and convince the jack wagon we no longer had any choice in the matter. While we were holding ATC asked us what were our intentions. I grabbed the mic and said we were still trying to decide. They said to hurry up as we were the last airplane in their airspace and that they were going to evacuate the center as soon as we were down or clear of their airspace. New captain numb nuts decided we were going back to GEO. when we landed and were waiting for transportation to the hotel we were surrounded by Guyanese laughing and clapping about the attack on America and we spent the next several days in that hell hole.
Flew back to JFK when ATC opened American airspace and on final you could see the smoke rising from the WTC site. Everything I had been watching on TV for days became very, very real. Driving home I pulled in line at the Verrazano toll booth behind a truck carrying flattened cars stacked on top of each other. When the truck pulled away my car was covered with dust from the WTC site and I felt ill knowing what the dust might contain and grieving at what had happened to my fellow Americans.
When I finally got home I hugged my little girl tighter than I had ever before and I never talked to that sniveling little sonofabitch new captain company man for the next 10 years.
Always Remember, Never Forget.

The 9/11 attack was designed to kill about 50,000. So was the 1993 attack, which it mercifully did not. My thought at the time was to react as if it were the larger number. Meet intention with intention, because when their plans fizzle, that's lucky for us, not them.

Is this the right thing to do? I have had NO contact with any of these people in four years.
Yes, it's the right thing to do. They have excluded you and continue to exclude you.
They're probably going to talk shit about you no matter which course of action you do take, of course.

When is the last time you can remember Hillary being THAT alone? Years? Months?
I can't remember.
The press still has not seen her since that photo op and they were kept away and are being kept away.

Shibumi you go to a funeral for the family and for yourself.
If you don't want to go and they don't want you to be there, light a candle, say a prayer and go buy someone dinner or someone who needs a visitor.

Chi,
So today I'm getting the idea you aren't in the HillaryFanClub?
------------------
Gee, whatever gave you that idea?
Aa couple hours ago, I heard a horrible cryING - like Tucker was in serious pain. I just up & ran to his couch (yeah, yeah), but he wasn't there.
Then I heard it again and realized it was coming through the open bathroom window. OH SHIT! A pit bull or something must've wandered in through the broken fence!
I grabbed the flashlight and ran out back. When I fanally found him, he had a giant possum in his mouth, shaking it around like maraca.
I think that makes number 4 or 5, I lost count.
I just let him play with it & came back in the house. Relieved, to say tbe least. Took an hour for my heart to lower back down out of my throat.

Any chance your cousins were led into this behavior by their Aunt and did not necessarily approve?
I would attend, simply because I think death is the time to rise above all the pettiness--and generally it's a lifetime of it--and acknowledge the connections of family and blood.
Your cousins may do something unkind in which case you'll have done your duty and be free of them. Or they may be overcome by your willingness to set aside their past actions and show honor to their mom.
Can't know unless you go, as with so much of life.
I attended a funeral of a man who knew he was dying, and who wrote out a message to be read. In it he apologized to someone for not attending the funeral of their spouse. It was a remarkable moment, hearing these words written by a man who knew he was passing, to someone he knew would be there, about when he callously missed the funeral of this person's spouse.
I, personally, will not be missing any funerals after hearing that. It was one of the boldest, most honest, albeit posthumous, apologies i have ever heard. I'd rather learn from it than have to write one of those myself.

No, that isn't Hillary. But then, why be so upset about it? We are better off without that witch.
Really, even though we know they trotted out a fake (where are the Secret Service guys?), we have no idea what happened and what will happen, so....
Let's just hope she is getting the medical attention she should get and that the media finally asks what she is dying from and she goes away from the public eye for good.

it was a strange coincidence that I found her death notice.
Do not go. If there are ever any repercussions, mention, with a very slight sadness, that they dropped you [4] years ago, and said nothing about tomorrow's funeral.
You will then see what to do based on what happens.

Well, to go OT, (heh) I successfully got my big coal-fired boiler moved. Decided last night, as I was trying to go to sleep, that I was over-thinking it. Today, I simply used my tractor to skid it over the ground on a succession of planks. Wasn't quite that easy, since I'd push it off one plank, then have to pick up the leading edge of the boiler with the loader, and slip the freed-up plank under the skids. Rinse and repeat. Took about 3 hours to move the darned thing on a 25-foot diagonal path, but it's now right where I want it, and sitting level. Woo-Hoo!

Thank you for your input Weft. As is turns out, I hate people, places and things as well.
Plus...I don't like them. They were never really nice to me as a child, only tolerated me as an adult. I don't feel comfortable going to a place where I have to console people I dislike.
Now, an interesting thing to report: When the Aunt's husband died, he was buried in the same local cemetery as my parents. Before he died, he said that he did not want to be buried with his wife.
She is now being buried in a national cemetery about 70 miles away; she's not a veteran, and I have no idea why she's going there.

Most buildings, nearly all, are overbuilt for their purpose. That is built into the Building Code. Redundancy means safety, and after all the various collapses and building failures, even under duress, the Code recognizes that.
A building like the WTC would have had extra scrutiny when built, and any architect and/or engineer who stamped any drawings or specs would have demanded that it were overbuilt in order to stave off lawsuits, etc.
Yes, lives were saved by that, but by the same token, it took a completely unexpected structural disaster to bring them down. One that should never have happened.
Posted by: tcn in AK at September 12, 2016 12:20 AM (+YMhA)
No, they're not overbuilt at all. We design specifically to the limit of the code; I won't have a job if I design something that costs $.25/square foot more than the next guy, because I throw extra on top for good measure.
Code forces (wind, earthquake) are the 100-year return maximums, and come from the best estimates we can come up with for what those would be--it's a straightforward combination of measured data and statistics. there's not a thing in there about planes hitting buildings.
Federal standards now have some additional redundancy (have to be able to remove any individual column and not have progressive collapse) and some have specific blast criteria.
A plane full of jet fuel will still be an awful hit on buildings designed that way, because of both the impact and the fire.

Thank you everyone for your input. I do appreciate it. ((hugs))
This is the wife of my Mom's brother. My Mom told me that when people started to pass away, they would drop out of my life. I was prepared for this, and it wasn't a surprise.
Whenever faced with a decision like this, my Mom would say "What would Grace Kelly/Jackie O do?"
To that I would answer... not go. Not classy to be a gate crasher.
These people are not in my life, they were never really particularly kind to me, and cut me out of their life for no reason; they did the same to my other cousin. This all came up in a conversation with my Godfather, who knows them; he though a different woman from his late wife's family died. We looked her up; she passed on august 28th. Then, just to confirm it was just her (the two women have the same first name) I looked up my aunt and found out she died on Labor Day.
All very, very bizarre.

So what's a reasonable frame of reference for "what should've, would've, could've" happened?"
MMQBing how the Towers Engineers Failed on 9/11 is simply disingenuous.
The Towers lasted long enough that the body count was less than 3000. Given that 50000plus were there normally....it could've been soooo much worse.
If they'd have built a substandard structure, we'd be remembering 10000's of thousands more.
The point is, the buildings EXCEEDED expectations in an Unforeseeable Event, even in retrospect.
Pretty Fuckin Good Engineering, all things considered.

Yeah. Not sure about the double either.
I picture her in a heap, on the floor of Chelsea's place, as one of her crew brings out a "special medical kit" that's prepped for just such emergencies. They remove from the kit a massive syringe filled with adrenaline, that they then plunge into the atrophied black mass that should be a human heart. Her eyes bulge open, and she starts spinning around on the floor, whoop-whoop-whooping like Curly from the Three Stooges.
Now that she's conscious they know they have a limited window to get her downstairs for a photo-op, so they rush her outside where she is greeted by the little girl, she barks out a few words, and is whisked away once again for one of her usual restorative baths in the blood of 100 virgins.

I'd like to see a gait analysis between the real Hillary and the person that bounded out of the apartment door this afternoon.
Also, she's being held up already at the start of that video. Her handler has her by the armpit, not the elbow, and she's leaning on that post, knees locked.
If you watch her feet, she gets dragged the entire way from that post into the van. You can see the sole of her right foot from the first stumble until it disappears in the crowd.

So today I'm getting the idea you aren't in the HillaryFanClub?
------------------
Gee, whatever gave you that idea?
Aa couple hours ago, I heard a horrible cryING - like Tucker was in
serious pain. I just up ran to his couch (yeah, yeah), but he
wasn't there.
Then I heard it again and realized it was coming through the open
bathroom window. OH SHIT! A pit bull or something must've wandered in
through the broken fence!
I grabbed the flashlight and ran out back. When I fanally found him,
he had a giant possum in his mouth, shaking it around like maraca.
I think that makes number 4 or 5, I lost count.
I just let him play with it came back in the house. Relieved,
to say tbe least. Took an hour for my heart to lower back down out of my
throat.

Unfortunately, I'm not in this place with these people, so I should stay away.
They are social climbers, and I'm not the type of person they want in their life. If I was fabulously wealthy, well, that would be a different story. Although I've been estranged from them for four years, I've been treated badly by them my entire life; they did the same thing to my Dad. Neither one of us did anything to harm them; we were just too "blue collar" for their comfort.
So... I will sit this one out. And maybe, when I'm at a better place, say a prayer for my Aunt.

Yep.
A trivia note: A few years ago I read the baseball classic "The Boys of Summer" about the 1950's Brooklyn Dodgers. The right fielder, Carl Furillo, became a construction worker after his baseball career was done and at the time he was interviewed for the book he was working with his crew on building the Twin Towers.
A construction worker with a WS ring. Imagine any current Dodger -or any pro athlete today - putting on a hard hat and picking up his lunch pail and going to work like any Joe Sixpack.
Players were, of course, underpaid in those days. But most came from blue collar people and returned to the world of blue collar people when they left the bigs, although a few went on to college and lucrative careers. Today, a few years in the majors and smart money management means you can spend the rest of your life sitting on your ass on the beach after you retire - even if you're not a big star.

AOP, they have the annual Great Oregon Steam-Up her on the last weekend of each July and the first weekend of August. They do a lot of steam engines and have a steam powered mill.
I thought I was the rare guy who liked sawmills, but I was watching the bleachers fill up this year with rapt visitors all the way through the demonstration.
They also have a steam engine parade, but that has been going more to gas tractors and Rumley Oil Pulls and D-6 Cats recently, I have been told it is because of the requirement for each steam engine to get a boiler certification.

I took the 50,000 number to come from population density and the assumption that they would fall during a regular day without time to evacuate. I read it a long time ago and I don't have any special knowledge on it.
The 1993 attack had a chemical element IIRC. The explosion was hot enough to burn it up, but not hot enough to crumble the base. Very lucky. They picked the corner nearest to the other tower, so that one of the towers would fall into the other. Smartly planned, poorly done. And not treated like an act of war by the US.

My garage has radiant heat, operated by a 40-gallon domestic water heater burning natural gas, with a small Grundfos circulating pump. Has worked trouble-free for the 18 years I have been here.
The coal-fired "boiler", technically not a boiler, since it runs at atmospheric pressure, has enough capacity to heat the shop, the garage, and the house, which has hot-water baseboard heaters. But I will just plumb it up to the shop first.

The first plane hit my best friend's office.
It was filled with a frsh batch of interns on their first day.
He was 10 minutes late that morning...
Nobody (who was there) in his firm made it out of their offices that day.
Remembering isn't the problem.
It's finding temperance that is difficult.

I thought I was the rare guy who liked sawmills, but I was watching the bleachers fill up this year with rapt visitors all the way through the demonstration.

My grandfather was a farmer, but he also had a small sawmill. It was initially steam powered, but by the time I was old enough to visit, it used a gasoline engine. At the time, he was still using mules exclusively for farming.
Prior to the gasoline engine, the farm community relied on the steam whistle to announce noon. Different days.

Definitely less. Maybe 90-100 degrees? They tell me the trick is to use a blending valve to recirculate the bulk of the water* in the slab, just trickling in enough hot from the boiler to maintain that temperature.
*the system will be filled with water/glycol mix, as both the house and garage systems are. I don't even want to think about the consequences of pure water freezing in either the boiler or the slab.

... OTOH, I've spent the last 2 days fighting "north" midwestern progressive liberals on Facebook. I post links, photos, video clips, they evade the information. Real mind-control tards. They simply cannot address information counter to that which they believe.
Therefore, I believe that there is an infinitesimal-yet-non-zero probability that a double for Hillary exists, and might be used for extremely brief, low attendance (by true-believers only), brief-statement, no questions, look-I'm-still-alive-and-doing-fine appearances.

Okay, well, that is way different, as my system is pressurized plain water via a regulator from the city water supply, 12 psi. It has frozen however (blizzard of '93) when power was out for some days. Predictable results, cracked boiler, ruptured line. I now keep kerosene heaters and fuel on hand in the event of a repeat.

I have picked a couple out of the discard pile at the local recyclers. I keep two rebuilt ones on hand at all times. If one develops a weepy seal or bad bushing, I just plug in one that I have rebuilt sitting on the shelf.

In other news, https://www.yahoo.com/news/ california-nears-adoption- energy-saving-rules-computers- 020526404.html
For anyone who is not familiar with semiconductors, there is a certain energy cost in flipping a bit. Quantum mechanics says that there is a definite lower bound to this cost.
So, if California is looking to lower energy costs, it must insist that users either flip fewer bits or flip them less often.
I'm sure that Silicon Valley will thrive when it must choose less capable computers or slower ones.

Bin Laden was just one of many. According to 'The Looming Tower', most of the plotters didn't think much of Bin Laden as a operations planner but found him useful as a figurehead. The pace of activity had been building since before Bin Laden became a big name in jihadist circles and though the details would have played out differently, the conflict was inevitable. The fanaticism and will to power had been there for centuries and the oil money made it their other big export.

Posted by: Hillbillyking at September 12, 2016 12:40 AM (U+rJD)
The Twin Towers were designed to take an impact from a jet. Seeing that jets routinely flew right by the area and that the Empire State building had been hit by one earlier.
IIRC, the story on the weakness came from them not using asbestos-based flame retardant on the beams and the retardant they used burned away from the fire.
Also, people at the World Trade Center didn't expect the first tower to fall because they told people to go back up the second tower after the initial hit.
That said, the second tower was hit in the corner, which made it particularly bad. I figured that that tower was coming down because of that. I don't know if that was a big issue since I've never seen anyone say too much about it but my thought when I saw it was that hitting the corner was much more devastating to the integrity of the structure than a straight-on hit.

Actually, it's apocryphal. Nobody has ever been able to point to where the supposed quote originated. An issue of Byte from the same era has a short article from Gates suggesting the ability to access greater amounts of memory would one of the major features of the progressing micro business. It was understood that nearly everything was limited by that factor but costs and available tech were what they were at the moment.

There are many interesting limits on computation that physics sets. This area is not something I know that much about. But there are limits on how much computional power you can pack into a volume of space, and how fast one can do operations. These limits are YUGE compared to what we can do now.
There an interesting number. 10^93. That is a limit to the number of operations (or bits). Anyway, this number exceeds something that a computer the mass of the earth, in the volume of the earth, could compute in the 4.5 billion year lifetime of the earth. :-)
Anything above that is called a "transcomputational number". There are known problems that exceed the transcomputational limit, and are thus considered "practically impossible".

The Twin Towers were designed to take an impact from a jet. Seeing that jets routinely flew right by the area and that the Empire State building had been hit by one earlier.

Nitpick, but the Empire State Building was hit by a B-25 in 1945, not a jet. That was a twin-engine propeller plane that was puny compared to a modern jet airliner.

Late night greetings from the middle of the country.
This great country, which can be made greater again.
Not gonna read 600+ comments right now. Maybe later.
I've mentioned this every year, but here it is again.
We had no TV at home, and knew nothing about what was going on until Milady and I drove into town. I know just where we were on our commute when I turned on the radio.
The first we heard was some substitute for Limbaugh saying he was stuck in Florida, and was all right. Curious.
Next a news guy started talking about closing refineries in the southwest. WTF?
Then a news guy gave that rarest of things, a succinct re-cap for folks just tuning in: "The World Trade Centers are gone." Just like that.
I didn't know how, didn't know about the planes, or anything else yet, I would pick that up as we turned around and drove back home. I just knew one thing: the bastards said they would do it, and they did. Damn them.
Sat down with our three mostly-grown kids at home and told them what we knew. I told them, this is your generation's Pearl Harbor. Everything changes after this. Fifteen years later, that seems to have been right, even if the after-effects of the ongoing, often pitifully-fought war on Islam differ from the all-out war on Japan and Germany.
We all drove to town and opened our then-sorta-closed little cafe for the day - had a few friends drift in - and watched numbly as the TV played out the fall of the towers over and over, and got the details on the Pentagon and Flight 93.
There's one other thing I thought, as the day wore on: That's it? That's all you got? You pitiful, cowardly punks!
Maybe a weird kind of feeling, but as big a dent as they put in the country, it was only a dent. God bless America.
"The World Trade Centers are gone." Yeah, I'm not likely to forget that in a hundred lifetimes.

Does anybody know whether or not Hill Force One has clearance to land at Moffett Field?
(Hillary. as you may know, a few months ago finally leased a 737 for private use after so many complaints that she was abusing military transport. She renamed and repainted the plane "Hill Force One.")
I know for a fact that when Trump came to the Bay Area, he landed at SFO (because I saw his motorcade existing the SFO tarmac along a side exit).
But I have this suspicion that, either because O-Bomb-a grants her official permission or because she's a former Sec of State or whatever that she has clearance to land her private 737 at Moffett Field (military air field south of SFO), because mere civilian airports are beneath her status.
But...maybe not. Anybody have a clue?
If (and that's still a big IF) Hillary "recovers" from her "pneumonia" tomorrow, she's scheduled for an 8am liftoff from NY to the SF Bay Area.

True, but the point was that they were well aware of the danger of being hit by airplanes - commercial jets as those were what were regularly flying right over that spot. And the lights on the tops of those skyscrapers show that everyone was aware of planes and buildings ... just not intentional rammings so much.
Anyone who flew into Kennedy before must remember coming in near Manhattan and seeing how close the Trade Centers were. I remember being surprised by that once, many, many, many years ago.

"Seeing that jets routinely flew right by the area and that the Empire State building had been hit by one earlier."
Design spec for jet impact for the WTC was a Boeing 707.
Another thing about the 9/11 attacks is that the two hijacked 767s were going *fast*. Considerably faster than a jet under ATC guidance would normally be flying as it passed over Manhattan at approach or departure altitude.
Kinetic energy. Square of velocity.

As a result, these photos are among the few close-ups ever taken of the World Trade Center site so soon after the 9/11 attacks."

If the pneumonia is due to her being ill, a compromised immune system, then it's likely not contagious, either. Right now, we're all colonized with bacteria that could cause pneumonia if our immune systems didn't keep them check.
That happened to my father after his prostate surgery several years ago. We caught in time and got him to the hospital again before it got too bad.
If it's due to some virulent bug that most of our immune systems haven't figured out yet, then it can be contagious.
So I take pneumonia as a likely sign she's indeed in very poor health and her immune system is compromised. It could be comprised by some drugs she's having to take as well.

The worst was supposed to be the old Hong Kong airport, which had a landing path between two rows of residential buildings. P.J. O'Rourke semi-seriously claimed you could make eye contact with people in their apartments.
Posted by: Epobirs
I landed at Kai Tak -- twice.
And what P.J. O'Rourke said was true -- you passed just a few yards over and next to residential apartments. On one of my landings in a 747 I waved at an old Hong Kong lady hanging up laundry on her roof -- and she waved back!

No, it wasn't. It was just an airplane. The contrails from airplanes and rockets look completely different.
I checked out NASASpaceflight.com that night (a forum for space geeks), and the commenters were laughing their asses off about it. If it was really a missile, they would have been discussing technical details.

I was very close to "ground zero" just a few weeks after 9/11, I'll always remember the smell. Like wet steel, or something, metallic, acidic, sour.
Vaguely recall tentative hope that the country might be serious when it finally got punched in the nose, that was dashed by 2006 or so. In fact the lack of seriousness turned out to be more widespread than it had appeared previously.

"The worst was supposed to be the old Hong Kong airport, which had a landing path between two rows of residential buildings."
There are some startling videos on the net of old Kai Tak.
British Airways flew the Concorde in there a few times when HK was still a crown colony. Just to prove the principle, I suppose. The noise inside the adjacent buildings would have been shatteringly loud.
Not that it would have been particularly quiet to begin with.

Howdy, Chi. More like about to be good night for me - been another long, crazy day.
-
Re the planes hitting the WTC & the engineering for an accidental hit -- not only were the planes going full-throttle on purpose, they were fully-fueled for cross-country trips. Hard to engineer for that double whammy.
Saw some video today, from early in the day - guy talking about explosions like a bomb in the lobby at ground level, blowing out all the windows. I think that was the jet fuel explosion traveling down the elevator shafts. What a horrid mess. One of the few blessings was that because of how they were built, they more-or-less collapsed straight down instead of keeling over worse than they did and hitting more of Manhattan.
Also caught a video today that I'd never seen - a montage of the jumpers. Couldn't stand to keep watching after the first dozen or so.

@655 In case you missed it, the world's seventh largest shipping company, Hanjin, just went bankrupt. Ports all over the world are refusing to let their ships dock before they know how they'll get paid.
-----------------------
On Saturday, I heard on TV that a Federal judge granted them bankruptcy protection. This was apparently enough to get ports in the US to start unloading their freighters.
Given that Hanjin is a Korean company, I'm not sure what a US Federal judge would have to do with it. But that's what the story seemed to indicate.

CBS aired that on the one year anniversary. Someone was making a documentary that day of one of the firefighters in the area who saw the crash and headed straight for the building. They explained that they mostly edited out people on fire coming out of the elevators due to respect for the victims and too much for TV. They went on to warn they couldn't edit out the sound of the bodies landing because there were too many of them.

Somewhere out there MUST BE someone who has ANOTHER video of this moment -- there can't have been just two people with iPhones. Probably a whole bunch of them.
But...they're probably Hillary supporters, so they're INTENTIONALLY not posting the video online because they know it will make her look bad. But I predict that someone just WON'T be able to resist showing the Hillary-collapse video to a friend, and then it will leak out. It will be from a different angle and will be even more shocking than this angle.

I just keep thinking of that line from Doctor Who...

I don't know if the slo-MO has audio, but you can Cleary hear it in the full speed.
And, sorry, but it's been discussed since early today, so it's not there. I think the last I reat was that her handlers (oR just the media, BIRM) are claiming it was a piece of her glasses. No. Way. That was a large, heavy cchunk of steel, probably from her exoskeleton.

It represents honoring the many brave men and women who sacrifice and have sacrificed their lives each and every single day to protect our freedom. Sitting or kneeling down during the national anthem is a disgrace to those people who have served and currently serve our country. Sitting down during the national anthem on September 11th is even more horrific. Protest all you want and use social media all you want. However, during the nearly two minutes when that song is playing, I believe everyone should put their hands on their heart and be proud of our country for we are all truly blessed."

Good Morning Morons. Today is Monday, September 12, 2016. On this day in 490 BC (conventionally accepted date). The Athenians and a few Plataean allies, defeated the first Persian invasion force of Greece at the Battle of Marathon. This is considered the turning point in the wars between Greece and the Persians (who later became the muzzies). This battle has also been considered the event that presaged the rise of Greece and the start of Western Civilization.

From MH's write up on 9-11 above on the first WTC explosion:
The explosion left a crater 200 feet by 100 feet. As a result of this explosion, 6 people were killed and over 1,000 injured.
There were a number of terrorists responsible for this attack. 6 of the 7 directly charged are currently in U.S. prisons.
Those two sentences do not go together and show some serious WTF that both Obama and Bush are to blame for. These muzzie savages were responsible for mass murder. WTF are they still doing wasting air and being above ground 23 years later? Shit, they haven't even been tried yet. And yes, the feds do have a death penalty. (no link needed)

Scankles has canceled plans for campaigning in CA today and tomorrow after her so-called "medical episode" yesterday. Her campaign blamed her passing out and collapse on pneumonia. I give that blame 100 Pinocchios. She has serious medical problems that do not involve pneumonia or Parkinson's disease. But as you can see from the way this Fox article is written they are spinning for all it's worth and the MFM is dutifully printing it.

Fox headline has "new poll; Scankles ahead by 10 points". Gee you would think this really means something she is slaughtering Trump in the polls. That is exactly what they want you to think. When you dig down a little in the article you find it is a poll by the WaPo (yeah, no bias there) and it is for registered voters. "Likely voters" gives an 8% lead.
But the article contains no breakdown on percentages used to calculate the poll bias and normalization of numbers. After diligent search I found those numbers. They used a 34-24-33 breakdown. That is ludicrous. And to show you how this really impacts the end product all you have to do is to look at how it impacts immigration. That is the key issue which gave us Trump to begin with and after their normalization Scankles actually leads Trump on this. Keep that in mind when you remember that 70% of Americans want to end the massive immigration we have now. Morons should be aware that you must take all polls with a ton-grain of salt and when they do not give the party breakdown they are hiding something.

ISIS has developed means of defeating the electronic tracking of Western intelligence. Thanks to the western press telling them everything about how they were being tracked they were able to come up with means to get around it. However, you can't blame it all on the press. They would have never got the info to begin with if politicians like Obama didn't give it to them for political reasons.

Here is a complicated story from WA State of a woman who has been convicted of "buying guns for her son" who was a felon. He was subsequently killed in a shootout at her home by police. I do not like the smell of this case, which I originally got from Fox so I pulled around until I got this local article. On the surface if this write-up is true there was probably no grounds for the case to begin with. Her story, which is likely true, was that she bought these guns legally for herself. Her son who also lived there simply grabbed them. It is hard to say based solely on what the press says but it looks like this was a travesty and a stacked anti-gun liberal jury. What say the Morons?

Tim Scott has submitted a bill to make Fort Sumter a national park because "its where the Civil War began". I have supported Tim Scott in the past but I see no need for this designation. I would sure like to see what "hidden benefits" this would bring. First off, the war beginning at Ft Sumter is a myth. The official first shots were fired in FL, not at Ft Sumter. And a lot of historians cite the wars in "bleeding Kansas" as the start. And second off, the sites listed here that will be part of this park are already set-aside as national monuments. So what is the difference between a park and monument?

A story from Lima, Peru illustrates a violation of "The Wizard's Second Rule" from The Sword of Truth series. That rule is routinely violated by politicians, as is shown here. The rule reads, " Harm can result from good intention". But I really do question them intentionally planting crabgrass.

"As it turns out, fainting spells (and near-fainting) are quite commonly seen in healthy people. The information we have favors Clinton's wobbly moment as nothing unusual, particularly since we now know she's battling an infection." -- CNN
Yeah ... happens all the time. I can't even count the number of times I've been walking on the street in the summer and people are just dropping left and right. Every so often you see a car go right off the road because the healthy driver just fainted. At family dinners we usually have 3 or 4 people slumped over the table, out cold, by the end of the night. It's not even worth trying to rouse them since another one or two are just going to faint and fall out of their chairs within the next half hour, anyway.
Everybody faints. All the time. It's like you can't walk outside without seeing 2 or 3 people face down in the street right in front of you.

Amazon is planning a move to open 100 new local stores nationwide. So how does this affect the Morons so that I post it here? It means that your mail order stuff from Amazon will now be subject to sales tax if one of these stores is located in your State. I have already been hit with SC sales tax on Amazon because they built an Amazon distribution center (not a store) in Columbia.

I have no love for Target but this was really really stupid and shows how totally messed up tort law is in this country. Carla Denise Garrison of Anderson, SC has been awarded $4.6M in damages because she stupidly slapped a hypodermic needle out of her daughter's hand. The daughter had picked the needle up in a Target Parking lot. First off, did Target employees put the needle there? No, of course not. Should they be held accountable for what other people do in their parking lot 24/7? No. Should they be held accountable for the mother being stupid and trying to slap the needle out of her daughter's hand instead of calmly taking the needle out of here hand while restraining her? No. And here is the final rub, the basis for the suit is the woman had to be bedridden for a few days after taking a prophylactic drug. Another case of stupid plaintiff, a stupid jury, and stupid law, used to extort money from a totally innocent store. If it were up to me I would eliminate all tort law in the US except for violation of a written contract. But you know who pays for this kind of crap in the end don't you?

The networks won't show the video, which leaves them free to mischaracterize it as they wish.
CBS streaming, known as CBSN, has the video. They even highlighted the area in which Hillary is standing. So I imagine they used that footage over the 'regular' network at some time.
I emailed my wife the video link yesterday, who watched it immediately. She ran into someone about noon, who she knows hates Hillary too.
'See the video yet?' my wife was asked.
'Of course' my wife answered.

From that CNN article addressed by Kreplach
As it turns out, fainting spells (and near-fainting) are quite commonly seen in healthy people.
I addressed that yesterday. No they are not "quite common". People fainting while standing at near attention for extended period of time happens a lot, but I would not call it "common". People fainting while walking is rare and indicates a severe medical problem.
But we ARE talking CNN here. Why report the truth when you can lie for your mentors.

765 Scankles has canceled plans for campaigning in CA today and tomorrow after her so-called "medical episode" yesterday. Her campaign blamed her passing out and collapse on pneumonia. I give that blame 100 Pinocchios. She has serious medical problems that do not involve pneumonia or Parkinson's disease. But as you can see from the way this Fox article is written they are spinning for all it's worth and the MFM is dutifully printing it.

It did happen to me once. When I was maybe 14 in Boy Scouts we were doing a flag raising ceremony at the local city hall. I was one of the buglers and we were all standing at attention. It was pretty darn hot out and the sun was brutal. The mayor or city politician guy decided to talk for an extended period of time. I was trying to stay perfectly still out of respect, and all of a sudden the world went sideways. Not a big deal, although I did miss the bugle call. Later, my dad told me the key is to shift your weight from foot to foot a bit to help keep blood flowing while standing in one spot for a long period of time.

I do not know but I know what it ain't. It ain't pneumonia, she may have that as a side effect of other things but that is not what caused her to pass out while walking. It ain't Parkinson's as a lot of people are guessing. I am very familiar with those symptoms from personal observation of two different people and those are not her symptoms.
What she has is some kind of serious neurological problem. If I were in that buisness I would not issue her a life insurance policy and a medical insurance policy would cost her an arm and a leg.

That is similar to and old game that kids used to play long ago. Spin around and around, squat down and blow hard into your thumb holding your breath. We called it the pass-out game.
The two times that I have seen in my life when it was not an intentional game both involved standing at "attention" for an extended period of time in formation. Two times in 60+ years is not common.

Her medical team tries to move her forward and she goes completely rigid from the neck down. Her legs splay out in opposite directions. She topples over hard enough to almost bring down the phalanx of medical personnel she always has with her because reasons. Then they pick her up and actually toss her into the back seat like a side of beef, as a shoe and part of her exoskeleton go flying off.
Yeah. Sounds like pneumonia.

Dr. Ted Noel I believe is his name. Very detailed stuff for 30 minutes. Personally I think it is several things one of them Bengali subcortical vascular dementia with Parkinson's as a symptom and seizures. She is really screwed up.
Appreciate your morning news posts Vic. Be well.

I do not know but I know what it ain't. It ain't pneumonia, she may have that as a side effect of other things but that is not what caused her to pass out while walking. It ain't Parkinson's as a lot of people are guessing. I am very familiar with those symptoms from personal observation of two different people and those are not her symptoms.
What she has is some kind of serious neurological problem. If I were in that buisness I would not issue her a life insurance policy and a medical insurance policy would cost her an arm and a leg.

The thing I found humorous about the video is how they just prop Hillary Clinton up on a cement pillar while the van appears. The agents all act like, 'here we go again'.
I've read articles for months about how her campaign is keeping the media out of sight of her boarding and disembarking planes, and getting in and out of limos. Thank G-d somebody caught the truth on video.

>>>>But the article contains no breakdown on percentages used to calculate
the poll bias and normalization of numbers. After diligent search I
found those numbers. They used a 34-24-33 breakdown. That is ludicrous.
And to show you how this really impacts the end product all you have to
do is to look at how it impacts immigration. That is the key issue which
gave us Trump to begin with and after their normalization Scankles
actually leads Trump on this. Keep that in mind when you remember that
70% of Americans want to end the massive immigration we have now. Morons

and when they do not give the party breakdown they are hiding something.

If this were a first time, isolated incident, you would expect a great deal of alarm, an elevated sense of urgency, and a straight shot to a full blown medical facility.

I've known people with Parkinson's. It is not Parkinson's.
Some kind of neurological disorder is more likely.
Anybody see the interview she did on CNN with Chris Cuomo, immediately beforehand? She was hushed, sickly looking and had to keep stopping in the middle of sentences to swallow hard, and looked like she was having difficulty doing it.
And that was a taped interview (so coughing fits could be edited out or cough-filled segments re-taped) with the friendliest of friendly presstitutes.

Where and who will attend the secret DNC meeting to elect the nominee? The infighting. The foreign and global interests the Clintons owe White House Debts to and who will shoulder that burden for the them? The media with egg and poo all over their faces after yesterday and THE VIDEO.

Epilepsy could likely be a symptom of something far worse. She is terminal right before our eyes. She looked 95 in those blue seizure proof sun glasses next to people her age.
She is going down, has been going down for a long time IMO, and is in the last stages or whatever it is.

I used to know an old Cuban man in FL who swore up and down that there had been at least 3 different Fidel Castros over the years...
"Have to laugh at the InfoWars brigade claiming it was Hillary's "stunt double" "
Yeah, that's just dumb.

Trump was just on Fox & Friends. He smartly treaded carefully when asked about Hillary's health. All Trump would say is that "he does not know" but "we have to find out what's going on" and that he "hopes she gets well soon and is back on fate campaign trail".
Also...Had a fresh physical done last week and he'll be releasing detailed numbers later this week.
BTW, I would like to know the medications that BOTH Trump and Hillary are on.

Twitter was fun last night. As Hillary's story changed, so changed the support from her Biggest Fans. First, everyone asking about her health was belittled as conspiracy theorists. Then she was over heated, as was perfectly normal for someone wearing.....and I'm not making this up.....body armor, and a bra. This was exacerbated by the sweltering temperature, and oppressive humidity, (77 f, and 38%). Matty Iglesias, Paul Krugman, and one other recognizable name all chimed in on how unbelievably hot it was.
Her gaggle of presstitutes weren't notified, because Hillary was being super polite, and didn't want her departure to detract from the solemn occasion. And finally it was revealed that she has pneumonia. Now she was gravely ill, but resolutely soldiering on. Presidential. Relatable. And how mean the right was for even bringing attention to her obvious illness! "Wow", said a couple different tweets....If they weren't voting for Hillary before, they sure were now!
I expect the neck snapping reversals, and changes to stories to continue this morning.

Oh my aching ass. Look at what ABC has to do with their poll to give hillary a 8 point lead over Trump:
"Partisan divisions are 34-24-33 percent, Democrats-Republicans-independents,in the full sample,and 36-28-31 among likely voters."
Ain't no way that is going to happen in November. They are literally cooking the books to show hillary in the lead.

Not really. It was largely all put out there but those already in the bag for whoever the Dems nominated refused to even consider it.
I wasn't strongly aligned either way back in the '92 election period but remember believing that much of it was just made up tabloid BS. Nowadays, much of it is fairly well documented. Nothing of the sort needed to prosecute for corruption but so many accounts from people who were there and are in agreement despite not having known each other well. (Hitchens said he knew of a woman Bill had attacked but who wasn't among those known publicly and certain damning aspects of her account were notable in that they were not yet known to most. Bill's penchant for biting his victim's on the lip, for instance.)

Best cast is she hangs in there until the end of October and then collapses so that the Dems are out of choices.

910 Stumbled? I watched the video. Just as she takes a step towards the vehicle, she goes limp like she'd been hit with a tazer
-----------------------------
Her upper body, I agree. But it looked like her legs were twitching, also as if she were having a seizure of some sort.

I think it's highly improbable, but wouldn't rule it out. There's some strangers that look a whole lot alike out there, and it wouldn't be the first time someone famous had a within-makeup-range-perfect double. That said, it's far more likely that they just cranked her up with high-powered medicinal go-juice to put on a song and dance routine.

Her doctor, from what I read, has not maintained her certification. She's still allowed to practice medicine but I guess it's a problem with getting insurance, etc.
Best cast is she hangs in there until the end of October and then collapses so that the Dems are out of choices.

Which, if true, cannot be good for her. The lady is nearly 70 for goodness sake. She is seriously going to either win the presidency or put herself in the ground.

Back on the WTC for a moment. Remember a few years ago, when Obama/Clinton et al overthrew the Egyptian military government briefly, and let their buddies in the MB take over? There was all this talk that the Egyptians were going to formally ask TFG to let the Blind Sheik go, and that the idiot President was actually going to do it.
Thank heavens the world dodged that problem, and the Egyptian Army said "Enough!" to mob rule.

Yep, just keep talking about how you hope she gets well enough to campaign. The subtle knife twist that she isn't healthy enough to get out of the house.

SKYPE meeting today at 2:00 regarding our now 2-month long "work entirely from home" experiment.
Fingers crossed. Our owner/president was in a pissy mood late last week over a few slightly tardy responses to e-mails. Not that that has anything to do with whether one as working at home or i an office. But still, worried.
We've worked our butts off to make this experiment work and it has worked VERY well. I'm nervous about this meeting.

Seizure or CNS reboot.
Her legs were twitching from trying to hold up her carcass. She went limp like a hammer hit cow at the slaughterhouse.

I don't think either they or she cares if she lives far past inauguration. Just long enough that she could hand over the reins to Generic Communist without sparking any kind of crisis of leadership, and maybe make a Supreme Court appointment before expiring.

>>69 yr old female patient displays symptoms of overheating and walking pneumonia and NO ONE thinks to take her to the hospital?
One could think that maybe Hillary has a private medical set-up to take care of these events...because they happen so often.
When she left the 9-11 event, she was holding the hand of her doctor - wow, why was her doctor there by her side? She was picked up in a black van, not her usual SUV - was that an ambulance/modified SS vehicle for medical emergencies? Did she really go right to Chelsea's? Her press gaggle was prevented from following her and left in the dark on her whereabouts for over 90 minutes.

To be fair, people quit their day jobs to appear as performers as a body and voice double as famous people for events.
I would assume the same holds true for famous totalitarians.
The fact that people are entertaining it speaks to the level of mistrust towards the Clintons and the media.

Looking at the closeups, I would say the thing that hit the ground was a case for injection meds, autoinjectors or bottles and syringes. High riskers often have a pocket kit even if they have mics around.
Or possibly a cigar case...

The arrogance of running when you are a physical disaster. That's what inspires me about Democrats.
With proper care Hillary could have lived until she's 80. Aspiration pneumonia is a fucking killer when you are treating it properly. It's too little too late, I fear. Even her limited schedule was far too much. She needed to stop months ago.

That's my theory. They hop her up on drugs long enough to make appearances. But, they can't keep doing that forever. I would say there's a good chance she dies during an event.

One very noticeable thing about the whole event is that nobody in the protective grouping around her looked at all surprised. As Ace pointed out, from the looks on everyone's faces the collapse looked like a usual, everyday event.
At Chelsea's apartment they hid her from view when she was trying to get into the vehicle, as they normally do. I wonder if they have to lift her in by hand every time...

So, yesterday I slept much of the day away. Today, when I actually have work for once I wake up after only three hours. The work is a short walk from Union Station (L.A City Hall complex) so I hope taking the train makes the days less fatiguing than last week. The commute by car can be two hours on the lousier traffic days. (There are no good traffic days if you have to anywhere near downtown. Just bad and worse.)

"Watched a 30 minute video of a retired doctor laying out the Hillary has Parkinson's for the last 10 years."
An anonymous commenter purporting to be a doc, over at Prof Reynolds's place, was suggesting instead the similar malady of progressive supranuclear palsy.
Since Hillary lacks tremor during intentional movements such as reaching out to take a supporter's hand, as would be characteristic in Parkinson's.
PSP would be equally dangerous and disqualifying.
It also predisposes to aspiration pneumonia in exactly the same way that Parkinson's predisposes patients to it.
