I've been looking at the Drudge image with President Trump speaking at a podium with Senate and House leaders behind him.

Posted by: Soothsayer -- Fake Commenter at January 21, 2018 02:08 PM (0zeTt) I was listening to a lecture by a couple of Venezuelan economists who were talking about the history of Venezuela. For the 50 years prior to Chavez, the control of the government was ping-ponged between the Christian-Democrat and the Social-Democrat parties with nothing to show of it other than loss of freedom, economic failures, inflation and corruption. Chavez was an outsider who was perceived as a new breath who would break the cycle of stupid and corruption, and bring a new era to Venezuela. Of course, once Chavez was in power new breath he brought was to go full socialist in partnership with Cuba. WE ARE SO FREAKING LUCKY THIS TIME!

The Democrat Party operates on its own sense of moral courage and decency.
It is, of course, a sham, a veneer over the top of the depraved soul that runs it, the greed, depravity, and hate. But many people see (or only allow themselves to see) the veneer, and even block their nostrils to the stench. If they *really* cared about minorities, wouldn't they take a critical look at their policies and the harm they might be causing? But, no, introspection is strictly forbidden, therefore they do *not* care about minorities or the poor or the downtrodden or anyone else.

Hassan said similar attacks happened on "Muslim land" and no one cared if Muslims were hurt. She told police and fire investigators, "You guys are lucky that I don't know how to build a bomb because I would have done that." ... Court records show no history for Hassan. She was a St. Paul Public Schools student, first enrolling in the district in 2010 at Highland Park Junior High. ======== I think we care too much about Muslims being hurt. I would not mind seeing her facing some real hurt, as in Jordanian-pilot-captured-by-ISIS treatment. If she is undocumented as the last paragraph implies, can we just send her back to Ethiopia?

Intelligent people, gainfully employed (at that time about 1/3rd of the economy) who knew just what exactly the writing on the wall meant to them ignored party lines.

Posted by: Skip at January 21, 2018 03:00 PM (aC6Sd) Yep. At one time when I was working locally, there was almost no job I couldn't do because I had the tools in my truck. I actually built two built in computer desks with drawers, ect., that covered two walls of the office space using only my circular saw, router and miter saw. I built sleds for my saw and router so that I could get factory cuts on my panels and the rabets and dadoes for shelves and drawers.

If I were a young man ... I would like to see a return to the days of apprenticeships (having read something on the 'net about 10,000 hours being required to achieve mastery of a skill) and end public, government run schools. 'Higher Education' beyond reading and arithmetic should be done by private, for profit, schools. Public, government schools, are now showing the bad side of government education. They aren't schools as much as day care centers for parents that have to work two jobs to maintain a desired standard of living. Think, for a moment about Rock Musicians, and how much practice was required to master their abilities. I see on youtube, videos of 5-6 year old drummers, and young teen girls drumming. Parents have to feed and reward that desire. Modern athletics is another example where the special 1% practice, practice, practice and achieve celebrity fame and fortune. The rest of us become corporate drones, cogs in a wheel, interchangeable parts putting in our time until retirement. Posted by: Skandia Recluse at January 21, 2018 03:18 PM (GroCc) 166

Another old trade with cool hand tools is leather working. I got into a leather shop a bunch of years ago just to learn and picked up a bunch of old Industrial Singer's I cleaned up and got working again. The treadles are my favorites. Those things are built so well, outside of kicking it off a truck on the highway, can't be worn out. I ended up turning half my house into a shop and had a little business making holsters and knife sheath's for awhile. Hard to make a living doing hand work but it was a lot of fun.

Here's the difference between the political class and Trump.
Then: Mr president, we know you said no new taxes, but the dems and our party want it. It's just a tiny increase GHWB: Ok. Now: Mr president, we know you said no amnesty, but the dems and our party want it. Just a tiny amnesty. We'll get security later.

And a question.
If Trump had not run as a Republican, how many people here (who like what he's doing) would be saying the same thing about him? Posted by: dDan at January 21, 2018 03:14 PM (hwYmz) Trump had run before -- 2000 if I recall correctly as the Reform Party candidate -- and didn't get too far. They're definitely not Democrats. I think that if you're pro-business and pro-labor simultaneously (which I think he is) there's no chance he could run as a Democrat. I don't think I'm answering your question.

My son and I performed our first engine swap today. It was a fine bonding exercise. Alright fine, it was only our riding lawn mower (single cylinder 19-horse Briggs and Stratton) and it only took a couple of hours. And it was because we were fucking idiots - we forgot, all throughout the mowing season (Mar-Nov) to check the Goddamn oil and on the fucking *last* mow of the year it blew up. $500 down the drain for $10 of 5W-30 oil. :facepalm: Well, anyway, now we get to open up the dead engine and try to rebuild it!

I read somewhere on the net where it was said that back in the old days, one could not just move from one village to another. Relocating required the approval of the Mayor of the village you were leaving, and the Mayor of the village you were moving into, and it required the approval of the Guild Masters of both villages. Thomas Paine's biography I think. He ran away from home because he hated being apprenticed to his father in the corset stay craft. Somehow, he landed a job as a Customs Inspector and was accused of corruption and fled to the New World. The rest, as they say, is history.

15,
"How did a filandering goofy jerkoff from Arkansas become the president of the United States for 2 terms?" As far as the first election in '92 he had luck. In the lead up to the primaries the Dem. heavy hitters took a pass because GHW Bush had a huge approval rating coming off the 1st gulf war. That gave an obscure governor from a small state a chance at the ring. Then when Bush stumbled Clinton seized the chance, helped on by the MSM which hadn't been dethroned yet. That he and his "lovely wife" are sociopathic liars, that Bill is/was so smooth when he lies, and that the little handgrenade with a bad haircut ran, got them barely past the gate and into office.

I would like to see a return to the days of apprenticeships
Germany does those. In fact, they said one of the reasons they needed immigrants was bcz those slots were going unfilled (declining birthrates). Unfortunately, migrants didn't come to Germany with a strong work ethic...or desire to learn. So those apprenticeships began and ended within weeks. Not sure it has changed since I last checked. Since Merkel and the govt. have been outed as proven liars by the police and the press, and ate in cahoots with Zuckerpucker, I wouldn't be able to parse the truth anyway. Just another bad outcome of Frau Merkel. Posted by: Professor Chaos, Gumdrop Gorilla Channel at January 21, 2018 03:35 PM (obTcf) 198

Posted by: CN at January 21, 2018 03:23 PM (5gaNQ) ======== One reason is that their own nations regard them as wretched refuse, filth. They don't want them back. Hence catch-and-release starting to come back as DHS holding cells are over crowding. Three options for dealing with this. Build bigger prisons or put them in gitmo. Or force them into inhumane crowded situations. Then smuggle them across the Mexican border. They'll think twice about coming back. Or send the military to airlift them back to their own countries. The justification: when does a country send in its own citizens illegally into your country without the intent to withdraw them if your country objects? When they invade you. I think that justifies a military response. Posted by: Steve and Cold Bear at January 21, 2018 03:40 PM (/qEW2) 204

Oh, bull sh#t! When - and by whom? We know the Taliban attacked girls going to school, implemented a policy where they couldn't attend. We know of the case where Saudi religious police blocked schoolgirls from exiting a burning school because their heads were not covered (better to fry then offend). We know Boko Haram - translated as "Western education is sacrilege and those who learn by it must be killed" - has been systematically torching Christian schools, slaughtering or kidnapping students. So please, tell me where the US military has burned muslim schools - and tell me your source. I'm betting she learned this at the local mosque.

First, I think apparatchik is singular, a person who works for the apparat, so it can't be the party. Second, whatever.

'Higher Education' beyond reading and arithmetic should be done by private, for profit, schools. Public, government schools, are now showing the bad side of government education. They aren't schools as much as day care centers for parents that have to work two jobs to maintain a desired standard of living. Think, for a moment about Rock Musicians, and how much practice was required to master their abilities. I see on youtube, videos of 5-6 year old drummers, and young teen girls drumming. Parents have to feed and reward that desire. Modern athletics is another example where the special 1% practice, practice, practice and achieve celebrity fame and fortune. The rest of us become corporate drones, cogs in a wheel, interchangeable parts putting in our time until retirement.

Many are having great fun with the idiot Duckworth's stupid ad hominem (Trump got draft deferrments so, somehow, magically, he can't point out that a funding gap may affect military/families). But it's still depressing to see that not a single person, rightly contemptuous of Duckworth's childish, idiotic "point", will even discuss the logical fallacy.
F**k Duckworth's service - it's totally irrelevant. Pretty obvious it's an unserious country, for lots of reasons, but important to note that the utter lack of critical thinking skills is not limited to the racist authoritarians. On the contrary. Meanwhile, wonder which of the vulnerable Senate Ds will be the first to crack here. Aside from the few who already did, and voted for the CR Friday night. Dream (hah) scenario: Schumer's dumb gambit collapses in total defeat; WH and the few useful GOP in Congress exploit resulting weakness to go for broke on any DACA deal. Border barrier is critical, but 1/5 of the package that *must* be obtained to neutralize the amnesty. Posted by: rhomboid at January 21, 2018 04:01 PM (QDnY+) 247

I always thought an immigrants trade was entered into the ships'
manifest along with the name and address of sponsor, how much money they carried, etc. My grandmother came separately in steerage and was listed as servant. They both loved this country and never went back home, even to visit. ===== All of any family I know about came through Chicago/Great Lakes so I don't know what the requirements were. I do know that the Scandi side were farmers (hitch the plow up to them; save the horses) but I don't know about the Irish other than they were 'imported' and proud of it.

"I can now predict a Jags/Vikes super bowl and the lowest ratings since 1967." That'll be something since there are about 100 million more people in the US than there were then. Posted by: geoffb at January 21, 2018 04:19 PM (zOpu5) 251

He came over as a laborer and a drayman. He went back to visit after he made a million with a new type of coal tar extraction for analine dye manufacture. America is a wonderful place.

Sidebar:
"To coin a word" has never meant "to use a phrase". Just like "begging the question" has never meant "leaves the question unanswered", or "prompts the question". If "to coin a phrase" could mean to pass along a phrase as currency (according to market value?)--it's doesn't even make any sense. It's just people misusing phrases they don't understand and haven't learned. The person who wrote the Bush "coined the word" "WAR", just doesn't know how to use the phrase or even doesn't know how to make a clear point.

I have six working treadles plus two bases that I will eventually put heads in. I have several electric machines too. I spend time with groups that rescue old machines and make them run again. And I'm taking a class this summer on machine repair. I love my treadles.

The inescapable takeaway from the Bill & Monica affair is cold and simple: if a man will fuck around behind his wife's back, why won't he betray his supporters, let alone other citizens?
