Sunday it is!
It occurs to me I will have to order more razor blades soon. I shave every 48 hours generally, and get 2-3 shaves per blade, but I have 7 razors. Each one gets its blade changed usually on the first of the month. Thus I use 7 blades a month. What can I say, it's a hobby. Posted by: Wolfus Aurelius at September 12, 2021 05:05 AM (bz/l6) 10

Mornin', all. Busy with things yesterday intentionally. I have seen folks make the argument that Bush was doing what he was allowed to do to call out BLAMtifa. I am beyond done listening to politicians talk; so I can't really judge. I know I have to stop just shy of hate for W. Gore would have been so much worse. Maybe he would have brought back sanity in rebellion, but I doubt it. I have voted for the lesser of two evils at some political level my entire life. Not good, but it's the choice I have been given since I can't run myself and don't have the funding to buy myself a politician.

Morning peeps. Here's a tidbit on dementia; my dad had it pretty bad before he passed. The thing I remember about him was how he'd repeat things over and over. The same story, same comment, etc. He simply didn't remember saying the same thing 5 minutes ago. When I'd remind him he'd get a bit torqued off. There were some flashes of anger, mostly (in my opinion) because he'd realize he couldn't remember these things and it made him mad. I think there was a bit of understanding in his mind what was happening to him and he couldn't control it. *biden has it bad. He'll be incapacitated by dementia by the end of the year regardless of the meds they pump into him.

Today's lectionary reading-the three year cycle of Scripture from the Old and New Testament is about the danger of an unruly tongue. Even though we may be surrounded by a firestorm of cursing and discouragement, James reminds us that we are not alone. Our hearts and minds can rest in the presence of God and we can speak and bear witness to God blessing our lives and the world.

This is interesting:
Ivermectin is one of several ionophores, others including hydroxychloroquine, quercetin, and resveratrol, the latter two available over the counter.

Actually unless Bush specifically mentioned January 6th (which I didn't read) it's unclear what he was specifically referring to. He mentioned anarchy, did he not. That could as easily be references to Antifa or the BLM rioting.
It's a coy attempt at plausible deniability, but it doesn't work. Bush is already on record attacking the Jan. 6 protesters as insurrectionists in an official statement: https://tinyurl.com/e79j5h2e He's also expressed support for BLM: https://tinyurl.com/2cnue4x3 So he can sidle about in the shadows with his vague, unspecified accusations against "domestic" enemies and hope to slither by due to people's generosity and willingness to give the benefit of the doubt, but he's just being shifty to avoid getting direct heat.

GWB, like his RINO father, has always been a terrible public speaker. Praising anything he said immediately after 9/11 is like a scene out of Forrest Gump. Rove knew he hated doing it and coddled the simpleton rather than making him man up. He never kept the country informed of progress, or lack thereof, in the GWOT and allowed the donks to control the narrative.

His speechwriters were and are pretty good, and his speeches read much better than anything Obama The Magnificent's writers produced. Given his antipathy for Trump, expecting much more re "domestic terrorists" from a Bush speech would be foolish. Looked at a certain way, Bush went farther yesterday condemning the Democratic Party's use of violence by urban guerrillas than any other high profile GOP politician except Bush and a couple Congressman.

I too avoided any observances which only serve to make our surrender all the more bitter.
It's hard to mourn our losses with our tail between our legs. I'm distracted by the losses yet to come, as they surely will. I defer to those who pathologies orient them towards ceremoniously observing defeat, loss and death and the victory of evil. Personally the shrines disgust me as it reminds me of weak people trying to show virtue and caring about the dead while ignoring the living. I don't understand tearing down statues of bold leaders while constructing temples to our enemies' victories and reminding ourselves on how effective they were in killing our kinsmen. If that is how a person is wired, my words and thoughts aren't going to change it. That is where our society, such as it is, exists. Posted by: Reuben Hick at September 12, 2021 07:57 AM (+LCoQ) 277

First thing trump needs to do in 24 is fire every political appointee, then drone the headquarters of every federal agency.

I read another story long ago about a seat-changing game the muzzies were running on domestic flights. After take-off, intentionally moving around the cabin, swapping seats, approaching the cockpit, general pain in the ass stuff.
They were probing the reactions of the other passengers along with the crew. Softening up the opposition. Posted by: klaftern at September 12, 2021 08:02 AM (r4sI4) 288

Word on the street is, anyone who thinks the US doesn't do "illegal" virus research in-coutry, in secret... is due to be disappointed. Posted by: Johnny The Shoeshine Guy at September 12, 2021 08:03 AM (F09oV) 290
I remember when Ronald Reagan picked Dead Pappy Bush as his running mate. Party loyalty, blah blah blah. Dead Pappy Bush was even then an OG Deep Stater with his fingers in every butthole and pie.

2 pancakes, hash browns, white toast, bacon, coffee and orange juice. Is that too much to ask at 6 am?

I think it is funny the number of politicians and ceos who sold out to China to hitch a ride on the gravy train, now Xi is clamping down on their market experiment because the westernization of China was becoming a threat to his rule.

"Political pragmatism" he was told. We need to assure all those eastern establishment country club Republican types that you're not a loose cannon.

Because it's against the law to do that kind of research here in the US so we have to farm it out.
Posted by: Mister Scott (formerly GWS) at September 12, 2021 07:32 AM (JUOKG) For a very long while it wasn't unlawful - as long as it wasn't on the US mainland. That is why Galveston and Plum Island were research centers into the art of weaponizing plagues. Even then they were colluding to make it sound like we wouldn't do it, yet wrote the law to secretly allow it. One problem with so many thrillers where Ethan Hunt, James Bond, et al are saving the world from maniacs is that the villain often starts from scratch. The truth is that there are a lot of morally flexible people who use tax dollars to go the long haul then the psychopaths swoop in, bribe those with the package and take it the last mile.

As long as they don't call it illegal virus research, then it isn't illegal virus research.

The real threat to the CCP is Christianity for that brings freedom which is why they have been clamping down. Trouble is the more they clamp the larger the Church grows.

One of the endless gifts Obama gave us. It isn't a treaty because we are not calling it a treaty.
The constitution says congress has to approve treaties, but does not explicitly define what a treaty is, therefore, a treaty is only what you call a treaty. It isn't gain of function research if you don't call it gain of function research. Posted by: Cat Ass Trophy at September 12, 2021 08:09 AM (LXmEi) 298

Either testing the reactions or looking to win a lawsuit if they got tossed. And don't forget the guys that were taking turns using the same bathroom , and each guy was carrying a food bag , or a drink container. Posted by: Cicero Skip at September 12, 2021 08:10 AM (FIrEF) 300
Xi will make a grab for Taiwan by 2030 or he will look like an idiot to the CCP. Less if he fails as that can be blamed on the USA. Probably try a submarine blockade but it will take an actual invasion.

Still think rounding up the muzzies and shipping them back to whatever shit hole they came from is a grand idea. Replace them with those Hong Kong protesters.

At best Bush's speech was complaisant, cowardly and tiresome moral equivalence.
If bush had any balls or integrety, he'd name exactly who he is referring to. And his lack of support and outright hostility to PDT is, in a large part, responsible for the Never Trump Movement and apples sauce for brains being in the White House now Posted by: Nevergiveup at September 12, 2021 08:18 AM (Irn0L) 303
>>I too avoided any observances which only serve to make our surrender all the more bitter.
We avoided everything, but then last night stumbled upon a fabulous documentary series on Nat Geo where 9/11 survivors recounted events of that day. It's called "One Day in America."Rescue stories, recounted by both the rescuer and rescued, but also the losses. Recommend if it's available for streaming (Hulu IIRC). Nothing current or woke, just story telling and people who setpped up to the challenge. Posted by: Lizzy at September 12, 2021 08:20 AM (+Rh4C) 304

Churchill would have nuked Afghanistan and Iraq and Iran. Iran back in 1980. Then had a whiskey. Posted by: The Man From Athens at September 12, 2021 08:30 AM (QMwOT) 306
I don't get the avoidance of these things. I complain about how these events have become theater of failure or celebrations of the feminization of our culture, but people should take these in and process them with either prayers for our redemption and delivery or for maintaining anger and bitterness with a long view on retribution. Save and share the pictures of the burning Towers and falling people. Point and laugh at the "drone club" and their current feeble embodiment. Use their mockery as fuel.

Is anyone else bugged by the MFM talking about the lives lost yesterday? Like 9/11 was a natural disaster or something. The work is murdered.
