Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | Old Rich White People's Party Continues Losing TraditionPelosi may be a fine parliamentarian, and she certainly wields the whip effectively, but if the Democrat Party thinks that she is just the woman to lead them to the promised land of election success, they are deluded. Pelosi holds onto leadership House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) on Wednesday fended off a challenge to her long leadership reign, defeating Rep. Tim Ryan (D-Ohio) in a closed-door vote prompted largely by Donald Trump’s unlikely ascension to the White House. Pelosi got 134 votes to Ryan's 63 — winning 68 percent of the votes after declaring before the election that she had the support of two-thirds of the caucus. The victory sends a message that while there's a growing appetite for major changes in the party's leadership structure and messaging tactics, it's not strong enough to loosen Pelosi's grip on a liberal-heavy group that's rarely challenged her authority.She is a San Francisco millionaire whose husband is a rent-seeking businessman. She is completely out of touch with the electorate, but has remained in power because she is completely in touch with inside-the-beltway money and influence. If Trump's victory taught them nothing else, it should have taught them that after many years of status quo leading to our current mess, voters sort of like change, even when that change is Trump.

You can argue that Nancy has been more influential over the last ten years than Obama.
She had a bigger hand in drafting Obamacare, and along with Harry Reid, pushed it through. She's had enormous influence over the budget in the last eight years, and turned Obama's Stimulus into Porkulus, so that the money wouldn't go to burly men jobs that might actually build something. Because we haven't had a real budget, we've repeated this horrendous mistake every year since, which is why we've never had a recovery. Nancy's hubby was junior partner to Bill Hambrecht, and so for decades Nancy has been able to tap into Bay Area tech billionaire moguls for donations. This has made the D party beholden to the interests of a narrow faction of the elite. And she's still in power. Power of the purse, baby! Posted by: Ignoramus at November 30, 2016 07:29 PM (SIY7D) 11

"She is completely out of touch with the electorate, but has remained in power because she is completely in touch with inside-the-beltway money and influence."
As Ignoramus points out above, the money with which Pelosi is in touch is primarily SF Bay Area technoligarch cash. Consider this in that context: Trump's going to be under the gun to come up with ways to pay for his intended massive "infrastructure" spending. (Note that only GOP presidents actually are asked where the money is coming from for their programs. Obama never had to answer that question about the porkulus or about Obamacare.) Trump could do quite well by sharply hiking taxes and closing loopholes on Silicon Valley's arrogant elite. Matched by similar measures against Hollyweird and Wall Street. Trump can justify all of this as having those one-percenters "pay their fair share". Take the language, phrasing, and framing of the left, and cynically co-opt it against them.

Well this is certainly a good strategy to boost the donks vote totals and margins of victory in big liberal cities.
Problem for that is of course our election system which makes it so they only solidify their holds on liberal districts while losing more seats in Congress and presidential contests. Must be why they want to kill the Electoral College now, but who gives a shit, donks are practically extinct on the state level in addition to being a fading minority in Congress. EC is going nowhere. OT but somewhat related: I was thinking, is it actually possible for Trump to lose reelection in four years? The media spent the last year shrieking that they guy is LITERALLY WORSE THAN HITLER and he still beat the shit out of Hillary. Say the donks throw out some no-name empty suit (and they kinda have to, who do they have?) who by default is a vastly superior candidate to Hillary Clinton, and Trump just gases a few million Mexicans and Muslims and electrocutes all the gays, close election?

Gen. Adolf Galland, youngest German general during The Big One, and head of the fighters in the Luftwaffe, always had a Mickey Mouse painted as nose art on his aircraft.
Until the last desperate days when he headed up a renegade squadron of elite pilots flying Me-262s - there were more pilots than planes, so they didn't "personalize" any of the aircraft. I don't believe Disney attempted to serve him with any papers during the conflict (but recall that some US company/outfit - Springfield Armory, the real one? - DID pay up to Mauser for infringing their copyright on the bolt-action design they used ..... or something like that, real gun geeks will correct me if needed).

Posted by: rhomboid at November 30, 2016 08:01 PM (QDnY+) Going off memory, the Mauser-patented parts of the 1903 Springfield were licensed, not a fine paid for infringement.

The formula for Aspirin was taken from Bayer and made public as part of the war reparations afterwards, so paying Mauser for the '03 patents during WWI wouldn't make much sense.

I know there were Mauser patents licensed, but not if the fees were paid during the war. The M1 rifle used through most of WWII was developed by a Canadian working in the US; I don't think any licenses were needed for that one unless Mauser had a patent on rimless rifle cartridges.

At which point, being Minority, they'll sue for Affirmative Action placement in House and Senate seats as a way to regain the Majority.

One of the concerns the campaign manager brought up was there is no paper trail to some of the voting machines. Jill may be stepping on some Dem vote fraud dicks with this recount.

One of my recollections of the fashion trends of the late 60's and 70's is that discomfort was involved. There were NO HATS, no matter the weather. Blouses, even some men's shirts, were short, to show a little sexy midriff. In the middle of the winter. Polyester, 'nuff said: hot, sweaty, cold, breezy, all in one. Shoes you couldn't walk in. And most things were either Toulouse or too tight. It was a way of signalling what you'd give up for Fashion.

241 Dunno, Weasel, I have a couple of 90+ yr-old Mosins, the bores aren't that bad. Rifling seems perfect and strong, the "darkness" varies - one's almost shiny. All seem to shoot just fine. I've been doing some electronic bore cleaning, but the return seems marginal, so I'll probably revert to aggressive conventional cleaning (incl. when hot, at the range). Sort of an OCD thing anyway. They shoot fine, mirror-like bore won't give me any more value. Posted by: rhomboid at November 30, 2016 08:34 PM (QDnY+) --------- I have an '03 Springfield that was rebarrelled in 1944 and the bore is bright, shiny and spotless. Zero muzzle wear. Almost looks like it was put away after going through the Arsenal. The 1917 Enfield I mentioned has the original barrel (191 and it almost doesn't look like steel and rifling inside anymore. Oddly enough, it's not a terrible shooter even in this condition but I think I will send it to the CMP at Anniston and have a new barrel put on.

garrett I have a personal rule that's getting more difficult to follow.
When selecting a winery to visit, or while at one, any use of the word "sustainable" means "abort" on that place and their wines. "Bio-dynamic" is in a gray area. It's getting harder, as I say, as everyone (we're talking either central coast or Sonoma in CA) is now absorbed by the Borg, and at least mouths the stupid cult signaling words, whatever their actual beliefs. And yes I understand that in ag there are "sustainable" vs. other sorts of practices - using the word in its actual, former sense. But in the wine biz I'm fairly sure it's almost entirely the new, empty and misleading sense that's intended. At one place I tortured a nice young tasting room person by wondering aloud how the concept of sustainability applied to wine-making and viticulture, as some of the oldest known human activities involved wine-making, going back to ancient Mesopotamia. Poor thing didn't know that to say, or think, more to the point. Posted by: rhomboid at November 30, 2016 08:52 PM (QDnY+) 331

"Unsustainable" was draining the Aral Sea to water cotton fields in the southern USSR. Ruined the Aral, couldn't support the cotton industry indefinitely. Oh - and I haven't even bothered to check, but I'll bet you a sustainable caramel pumpkin mocha latte supreme that the Aral is probably recovering, on its own.

It sure is. Huet, which I believe to be one of the world's very best wineries, is biodynamic. Their wines are probably not great because someone is burying a horn of dung in sync with the moon cycle, but anyone who would use that as a criterion to cross them off would be missing out, bigly.

When selecting a winery to visit, or while at one, any use of the word "sustainable" means "abort" on that place and their wines. "Bio-dynamic" is in a gray area.
It's getting harder, as I say, as everyone (we're talking either central coast or Sonoma in CA) is now absorbed by the Borg, and at least mouths the stupid cult signaling words, whatever their actual beliefs. And yes I understand that in ag there are "sustainable" vs. other sorts of practices - using the word in its actual, former sense. But in the wine biz I'm fairly sure it's almost entirely the new, empty and misleading sense that's intended. At one place I tortured a nice young tasting room person by wondering aloud how the concept of sustainability applied to wine-making and viticulture, as some of the oldest known human activities involved wine-making, going back to ancient Mesopotamia. Poor thing didn't know that to say, or think, more to the point. Posted by: rhomboid at November 30, 2016 08:52 PM (QDnY+) Liberals, like retards generally, are the source of considerable entertainment. Have you ever noticed that the only sustainability they never mention is financial sustainability? A sweet young thing called me asking for donations for the College of Chemistry at Berkeley. I had her on the phone for an HOUR, but it was the intellectual equivalent of Mike Tyson v. Pee Wee Herman. At one point I told her Berkeley had plenty of money, it just wasted a lot of it on bullshit departments. I offered to fix their budgetary problems if they'd give me a clipboard, a sheaf of pink slips, and directions to the Grievance Studies departments. She agreed with me, but then added, "But many of those departments are very popular." "C'mon, sweetheart, if there were a department of beer drinking, THAT would be popular too, wouldn't it? The measure of a department is probably inversely correlated with its popularity." A long silence ensued. Posted by: Deplorable Jay Guevara at November 30, 2016 09:00 PM (SRKgf) 370

CaliGirl, it's an affliction one finds at most wineries these days. As I said, it can be just empty words and marketing blather - as it is, presumably, in most of the other thousands of places these words appear in today's corporate marketing.
Last time I was up your way in early October I relaxed my policy (was a two-couple joint trip), though I didn't cease to mock the nonsense once we had left someplace. Don't recall any notable offenders. The very nice couple that runs Ampelos poured for us at their tasting room in the ghetto in Lompoc. I cringed inwardly when the wife said something bio/sustainable/green-bullshitish, but of course showed no external reaction. As I've said before, interacting with most people any more is like being an undercover FBI agent at a KKK rally - one smiles or nods sagely while inside thinking "these idiots REALLY believe this crap?".

Probably way against the grain but I was hoping Trump would pull something very unexpected re the inauguration.
Namely to scale it way back, to little more than the ceremony. Sort of consistent with what I think is his core personal style - workaholic. Plus, of course, a long-overdue and welcome push-back against the Imperial Federal Govt. disaster that's been swallowing the country. Imagine that after the swearing-in and first entry into the WH, if instead of glitzy parties, the new prez and his top staff pull an all-nighter cancelling Obama EOs, issuing new ones of their own, and contacting world leaders to lay down the law. Yeah, not likely. But think about it. Would *this* not signal a change of direction and also be a silent burn on the govt-worshipping parasites of the Beltway Class?

I think it would send a good message if Trump did pay for a large part of his inaugural expenses. I suppose they have to have all this fuss as a payback to the contributors and workers but it seems like a security risk and given our financial situation too ostentatious.

509 Careful. The stock market doesn't represent the actual economy. It's been rising for the last eight years, mostly because zero interest rates leave no alternative if you want to make your money grow.
The fact that it has risen further since Trump's election is not a cause for celebration. It's a bubble, and it will pop. The only questions are when, and how bad. Posted by: rickl - THE MEDIA IS LYING TO YOU at November 30, 2016 09:42 PM (sdi6R) Your points are well taken. Certainly, stocks are a bubble, and will drop significantly when interest rates rise at long last. But I did want to call attention to the change in distribution of stock price increases. Not just Big Tech driving the market anymore; all of a sudden there's a perception that raw materials and manufacturing and even banking are worth investing in now.

re:the stock market. I think it's been a building bubble for the last 8 years. There hasn't been any real growth globally. The safest place to put your money when there are 0 to negative interest rates are US equities markets. There's a shit ton of foreign money propping up markets here. The thing is, if tax rates are cut, consumer confidence grows, (Reagan redux) and there is real economic growth, who knows how high stocks could go.

The alternative, I guess, is growing it out on the sides and combing it up, but you aren't fooling anyone. You look like a tonsured monk who's had a shower drain trap dumped on his head.
