Matera, Italy

Matera is called "The City of Caves" and is supposedly the third-longest continually-inhabited city in the history of the world.

8 Ace, you've probably seen this, but there's a really good #walkaway video on YouTube, at the moment at least -- if you google "I was wrong about the Democratic Party, Georgia" you'll find it.

Georgia is the young woman's name, and she does a great job of explaining how they lost her. She started out in education, then went into nursing, and went from committed progressive to conservative.

62 Libertarian party will probably get their usual number of votes, around 1 million. Johnson very much over performed, helped by being the place where people who didn't want to vote for Clinton or Trump parked their votes.

Some of those voters won't vote. But the majority of that 3 million or so will probably go to Trump. His antiwar actions have resonated pretty strongly with the libertarians. They all love Rand Paul, and Trump has adopted a lot of his policies.

I would guess that Trump picks up 2 million votes nationwide just from that block.

Trump looks especially spectacular in today's FL rally.

I believe there was some kind of break through as well.

Trump told the cameras to turn around and look at the large crowd, and at least the FOX camera did exactly that.

The camera operators have apparently got the memo.

No, because he loves radio too much.

Rush is the type that if you ever hear him say "I'm going to retire from radio", you can bet he won't live long afterwards. It's that important to him. I'd argue this is what is getting him through his treatments.

Neither side openly states their party. From James' side, maybe he'll pick up black votes by not identifying as Republican. From Peter's side, do you really want to identify as a Dem after what the governor is doing?

292 Lucky to spend a fair amount of time in Italy, though all in the central/Rome area - so lots to go do still. And of course had lots of amazing food.

But the funny thing, one of the items I remember best was a sandwich from a little deli attached to a gas station near Fiumicino (name of the Rome airport, and of a seaside town with decent beaches). It was incredible. We picked up the food quickly on the way to the beach on a beautiful September afternoon.

Just a sandwich - but the ingredients.

Posted by: Moonbeam at October 12, 2020 08:32 PM (qe5CM)

Exactly. It is not a difficult concept.

I've explained it to dubious people this way:

Congress had to make a decision -- if someone has a huge loss, should they have to take it all at once, or should they be able to spread it out?

The practical implication is this: let's say you have a building that you bought for $1,000,000, and were super stoked to develop in to apartments. However, during the process, you discovered that the building is full of mold and is falling apart. It turned out to be a poor investment. Should Congress incentivize you to just write it off, and demolish the building and restart? Or, should you be incentivized to hold on to it, pay the taxes, and write off the losses every year?

Keep in mind that one answer leads to economic efficiency, and new development, and will lower the cost of rent for everyone, and the other leads to economic inefficiency, waste, and urban blight, especially in communities that need affordable housing.

Posted by: LeftCoast Dawg at October 12, 2020 08:46 PM (sy5kK)


Yeah. I think I voted Libertarian that year, because I was so pissed off by George's casual betrayal of his "read my lips" promise. Only time I didn't go for the (R) column.

I've actually voted for Democrats, only because California arranged things so your election can be between two Democrats. Normally I abstain, but I made an exception to try to stop the rise of Kamala Harris. It was evident, even that long ago, that she was being groomed for higher office, and I wanted to do my part to stop it. You see how well that worked out.

And in his own way, Ross was right about a lot of things. And he paved the way (in a manner of speaking) for Donald Trump in 2016.

I am here. That might work. But you would have to invert the propane tank to get liquid, not gas to flow out.

I think you could make an awesome flame thrower by introducing liquid fuel into the the air stream from a leaf blower, and provide a source of ignition. I would use a mixture of gasoline and Diesel fuel, with just enough gasoline to ensure it ignites readily from a spark.

they give it to you to put in the voting machine...a letter, a checkmark, a star, an R or a D any writing of any kind...please request a new ballot. Your ballot could be disqualified if it is written on. Please be on the lookout for this type of behavior.

What is going on is the same old tired crap that has gone on forever in the Church. People are sinning. Some of them are priests. But people, first.

Satan only goes hard after that which he cannot have. Nothing pisses him off more than seeing a Church that still exists, after all this time, and calls him out every day.

So, he goes after low hanging fruit (fruits?) who have found their way into the priesthood, and then shows them to everyone hoping the Church will fail. It doesn't. So, he tries again.

Sometime read the history of the Borgias and the Church. Always the same garbage.

That Jonathan and Darlene Edwards cover of "Stayin' Alive" had me rolling in the floor. That led to a cover of "I am woman" she did which was equally hilarious.

That made me look them up. It's a bad singing comedy act and they got their start on Jack Benny, if I read correctly.

It takes to talent to sing badly and make it funny. Believe it or not, it takes someone who can sing to know how to properly sing badly.

And it's the same with comedy of "acting stupid" ala The Three Stooges. Without talent, it just looks stupid and not funny.

We still do not possess the entire technology of original Roman concrete, but we have managed to figure out thin-shell and various additives, including ash, plasticisers, and other fancy stuff.

It took until the 1960's to figure out thin-shell, which the Romans used in the Pantheon among other things. Heaven only knows which Roman came up with that, but he was genius.

The thing is, the only mistake he ever made he was still a kid. The media won't let go of that, and go to the standard "deceptively edited video" and "fringe right wing" the same tired tropes. In the meantime, he killed ACORN and Robert Creemer had to quit in disgrace (try finding that anywhere). He's also gotten more than a few other staffers fired.

He's made full videos available for years. He's gotten what, 350 retractions? And over a dozen law suits, all won. Now, he's going after the NYT for slandering his work on the ballot harvesting. These people refuse to believe their lying eyes, and invent crap from whole cloth.

O'Keefe is one of the only true journalists out there, and a huge thorn in the side of the left.

Yes, he is that.

This was the specific question about his influence, and in the course of an hour or so long discussion, it was the one point on which I think James was not really able to see his own weakness.

And I think that's where I am with it. He releases stuff, and people get picked off one by one. It's not going to change anything like votes though. So I kind of look at these "this is about to drop" stories with a shrug.

536 Sorry to hear, Nip. There are few things harder than losing a beloved pet. When we lose a loved one the grief is so overwhelming that we go numb. I believe this is a mercy. That strange calm feeling is a sort of shield that our soul throws up to keep us from being utterly destroyed by the loss. There is no such shield of numbness when we lose a pet. When I lost my father, and much later, my mother I did not break down in uncontrollable weeping.
When I found my dear old Booger the Cat killed in the yard, I broke down like a three year old. Look up Rudyard Kipling's "The Power of the Dog". It will hurt bad, but it will also help.

I dutifully voted for both Bushes, Dole, McCain and Romney before it finally dawned on me that, duh, voting for a GOP presidential candidate in dark blue IL has about as much impact on the electoral outcome as spitting into a Category 5 hurricane has on its wind speed. So I saw no need to force myself to vote for Trump last time around given that the IL electoral vote was in the bag for Hillary regardless. However, now that the Left has made such a big deal out of the popular vote I'm determined to vote for him to show support even if it does ultimately make no difference in the electoral outcome.

Acually - Roman law culminated in the Code of Justinian, mid 6th Century. Justinian's code was mostly a compilation of existing Roman law, and with all of its business law and contract provisions, was actually far too advanced for the next 1000 years of European history. The Napoleonic Code was essentially an updated rewrite of Justinian's code, and replaced Feudal Law across Europe.

In effect, most of the non-English speaking nations of Europe and the Americas now use an updated and modified version of old Roman law.

Do you tell him?

What good would that do if he won't listen to you?

633 Roman law has significant influence on canon law which in turn has influenced English law by the concept of chancery (also known as equity). The English system had dueling court systems for part of its history--chancery and common law courts and some states actually had that bifurcation as well.

Common law was also altered by the passages of codes, etc. that led to a more civil law direction while civil law countries have adopted bits and pieces of common law jurisprudence.

The link between Roman law and laws in Western Europe was through the Roman Catholic Church which gave lawyers its lingua franca (Latin) and literacy as well as preservation of Roman law in its churches, monasteries, and the Vatican.

It's an academic blindness I think. She appears to have this fantasy that if Biden wins somehow the "reasonable" "moderate" lib voices will be heard. No, dear. You've been speaking reasonably and moderately for 30 years now and tell me, has the situation on campuses improved or gotten worse?

The one I find disappointing is Christina Hoff Sommers. She has been fighting against p.c on campus and anti-male bias in education for a long time now, but she can't bring herself to acknowledge anything good about Trump, even though she knows the Dems have gone loony left.

It's an academic blindness I think. She appears to have this fantasy that if Biden wins somehow the "reasonable" "moderate" lib voices will be heard. No, dear. You've been speaking reasonably and moderately for 30 years now and tell me, has the situation on campuses improved or gotten worse? Why on earth would you think Biden-Harris would do anything to curb extremism? Extremism works for them.

"While Plaintiffs may not need to prove actual voter fraud, they must at least prove that such fraud is 'certainly impending.' They haven't met that burden. At most, they have pieced together a sequence of uncertain assumptions," Ranjan wrote in the 138-page opinion.

Sorry, that's my fault. All analogy without clear context.

Weinstein's position with James O'Keefe is that James is doing some good things, exposing those who need to be exposed. The problem is, not just with the extreme left, but LOT of otherwise receptive people have decided James O'Keefe is poisoned waters.

So they ignore anything James says. So it's like the ex-friend who won't listen to you. People who might OTHERWISE be willing to listen to the info that James is uncovering, won't listen because it's coming from him.

So Eric Weinstein proposed, "why not give the info to someone else who can release it, and it won't be "tainted" by having come from you?

James was pretty much unwilling to consider such a thing. Which I understand, but still, he is somewhat undermining his own work by not figuring out how to get this stuff out there some other way.

He went to TX to practice instead and was an appellate judge.

Heh - my father in law was a lifelong Louisiana lawyer. That's how Louisiana lawyers keep their competition limited - unless you take course at a Louisiana school, no way will you pass the Louisiana bar. Where it really comes into play is in obscure things like inheritance law, where parents are not allowed to disinherit their children.

Why is Trump campaigning so hard in PA? It is must win for Biden, but it isn't for Trump. He can win any of combination that totals 10 EVs and win.

All I can figure is that the Trump campaign thinks their chances there are really good.

That is putting the cart before the horse. OKeefe is tainted by releasing bad stuff about the Dems, the need to dismiss the charge giving the undeserved taint. The trumped up charge to validate the accusation hardly matters.

Same with black conservatives. They must be destroyed because of who they are, refugees from the Dem plantation, not because of what they say or believe.

Which is rather a different task for a different day.

Again, just to be as clear as I can be, suppose I had something useful to tell you, but you decided I'm full of shit, and won't listen to anything I have to say.

Sure, I can work on trying to get you to trust me. That's all well and good, but what about the info I have? How do I get it to you?

One way would be for me to ask somebody else to give it to you, since you don't trust it coming from me.

If that main purpose is to get you the info, then that's a wiser approach than me trying and trying to convince you to listen to me.

Not true.

In 1990 when Boooosh was trying to get the Dems to vote for his Iraq war, they took to the House chamber and said they couldn't do it, without raising taxes.

So he agreed to raise taxes.

And two years later, when Dickie Gephardt was running for President, he said Boooosh was a scoundrel for raising taxes.

Didn't do dick for Dickie, but it sure stuck with most voters that year.

Weinstein's position with James O'Keefe is that
James is doing some good things, exposing those who need to be exposed.
The problem is, not just with the extreme left, but LOT of otherwise
receptive people have decided James O'Keefe is poisoned waters.



So they ignore anything James says. So it's like the ex-friend who
won't listen to you. People who might OTHERWISE be willing to listen to
the info that James is uncovering, won't listen because it's coming
from him.



So Eric Weinstein proposed, "why not give the info to someone else
who can release it, and it won't be "tainted" by having come from you?



James was pretty much unwilling to consider such a thing. Which I
understand, but still, he is somewhat undermining his own work by not
figuring out how to get this stuff out there some other way.

794 Eric Weinstein is the genius who is a little difficult to figure out. His podcast is worth the time.

Bret Weinstein does a great job of dissecting political correctness. I do listen to his podcasts with his wife and roaming cats and dogs. He's on that Unity 2020 thing, the absolute height of naivete.

Posted by: BourbonChicken at October 12, 2020 10:05 PM (LxTcq)

795 ---But I do think Weinstein understands it quite well.
He knows there's this massive gap between what is known, and what is
allowed to be disseminated widely. He's been a victim of it himself,
with some of the research he's done.

He may understand the gap exists, but he has not admitted to himself why the gap exists. The gap exists because leftists have constructed an alternate universe wherein leftism cannot be wrong. Everyone must agree to live in this universe or be rejected as racist/evil/etc.

Posted by: Clyde Shelton at October 12, 2020 09:56 PM (Do5/p)

So, how old is this guy and does he have other health issues?

How long ago was the first bout of covid?

How sick was he then and how sick is he now?

These are, of course, questions the media won't ask, unless the answers feed the hysteria.

803 766, Jonah, not quite right, an independent prosecutor was appointed to investigate Iran Contra in 1986, Lawrence Walsh. Apparently Lawrence was a nutjob and despite losing cases in appellate court versus Ollie North and John Poindexter, pursued the good guy, Caspar Weinberger who as SecDef opposed the whole Iran Contra trade in the first place. Walsh got his indictment but Bush pardoned him after the election.

Like usual, the special prosecutors were seeking process crimes of obstruction and lying to Congress.

There are several possibilities. One. The first Covid diagnosis was wrong, and patient had cold or flu, recovered, and then legitimately caught Covid in the "second" instance.

Two. He had Covid the first time; second instance is cold or flu, with a false positive, or even a true positive from antibodies still in his system.

Three: Neither instance was/is Covid.

Four: He had Covid once, and caught it again, because it has now mutated enough to fool his immune system. Corollary to that is that the new strain is probably more infectious/less lethal, because that's how viruses roll.

The answer, rather, is that W, McCain, and Romney are all wholly despicable and completely characteristic of the "Republican" Party, which is the avowed enemy of the base.
