Magritte 22.jpeg

The Enchanted Pose
René Magritte

This black-and-white photo of "The Enchanted Pose" by Rene Magritte is the only image of the painting that disappeared in nearly 80 years ago. A piece of the missing painting was just discovered in Britain.

Apparently Magritte just cut the damned thing up.

And that is just fine with me.....

H/T Mis. Hum.

7 So basically Magritte got a post-op tranny who was a pre-op stevedore and then posed him. Then Magritte came down off the absinthe, went "Da fuq was I thinking?" (in French, of course), and cut the damn thing up.

116 Magritte's works never appealed to me. They come across as making fun of the viewer (See how clever I am and you are not!) versus letting the viewer enjoy the joke. And the 'absurd' art of that period gets tired damn fast. Maybe I'm just in a cranky mood this morning.

I do wonder if Magritte or at least his 'school' had an influence on some of the images in the "Yellow Submarine" animated movie.

"The Debate" - September 27, 2016

Finally, the country got to see why there is only one choice to be our next president, and that choice is Hillary Rodham Clinton. She made her case with facts, grace and passion, despite Trump's obvious and odious verbal and non-verbal interruptions. Mr. Trump refused, under the most important spotlight he will ever face, to answer any of Lester Holt's questions with specifics, and again denied saying things and taking positions that are repeatedly on the record. Hillary Clinton offered a positive vision of America, said how she would achieve it and pay for it, while Trump said he would "Make America Great Again, again. Hillary Clinton stands for the average American, for the middle class, for the working poor, for kids and the environment. Trump stands for nothing but Trump. At the end of the evening there was really no debate. Hillary Clinton is the only qualified candidate to lead the nation.

We hired a lawyer to defend her.
This lawyer was one of the nicest people I've ever met.
She was really personally supportive of my Mom, and got her the best deal she possibly could.
And rebated a little of her retainer.
I glad we found a lawyer like her.

Anything except a knockout blow was going to be unacceptable. Trump may not have "won" bet he also did not lose. hillzebub was the one who needed a knockout and she didn't get it.

The MFM will say very little about Holt's conduct in the debate, but what little they do say will be so out of sync with reality (he was a perfect moderator) as to be laughable.

The MFM will instead, try to come up with extraordinarily nuanced reasons for why Clinton blew Trump out of the water.

Sort of how I feel. I'd score it a draw. You could lean one way or the other. On style points, I might lean Hillary.

But on the whole I'd lean Trump. I suspect Hillary helped herself out with the college educated crowd, but they were already pro-Hillary. I don't think she helped herself out with any other constituency.

Hillary outperformed my expectation. Trump probably could have done better, but he was basically Trump to me.

I don't think there's any question about it. Trump happened because of people's disgust with our institutions, political, media, business, culture, etc..

Trump is a giant middle finger to all of them which makes him immune to things that would have taken down a normal politician. Remember when he said he could shoot someone on 5th Avenue and his supporters wouldn't care? He was right.

As part of my job I have covered legislation and regulation in a highly regulated, very public industry for nearly 20 years. A remarkable insight is that virtually all the regulation I have encountered has significant legal liabilities that make lawsuits easy to file (such as a lawyer noting a violation and then digging up someone someone in the victim class to represent for the suit) with the damages seemingly to me very excessive for the violations.

275 >>If the GOP refuses to do anything with the powers it has been granted perhaps it is time to empower the Democrats to do their worst.

>>I'll endure the implosion when the chickens come home to roost better than Rinsed Penis.

The RNC has spent millions and millions since 2012 to build a ground organization that could rival the ones the Dems put together under Obama. They have hired over a thousand of full time staffers, more than double what they had in 2012, around the country. They've been registering tons of voters and targeting specific groups like Latino and black voters to try and at least minimize the gap.

In fact, the only reason Trump, who has risen specifically on being not establishment, has a ground game is because of the RNC. Without the RNC Trump would be getting his ass kicked on GOTV.

278 Anything except a knockout blow was going to be unacceptable. Trump may not have "won" bet he also did not lose. hillzebub was the one who needed a knockout and she didn't get it. IMO she expended most of her ammo last night and won't have much more for the next 2 debates. Trump has a lot more in his supply chain and plenty of time to use it.

I think this is my final thought on the debate as well. Trump missed many opportunities last night to bring up relevant and legitimate criticism of her. She used up every possible attack against him that he didn't respond to particularly well or effectively as he could have.

All she can do for the next 2 debates is repeat her attacks. He has yet to bring the fight to her.

She also did not turn the unlikeable factor around last night. She looked weird and smiled unnaturally like a demented, drunk grandma as if the debate was unserious and all some kind of joke that only she understood the punch line to. She reminded me of crazy Joe Biden laughing his ass off in his debate with Paul Ryan. Biden bested Ryan in that one. It didn't work to her advantage in the same way.

I'll say this, I am so tired of hearing about tax returns. I honestly do
not care and see no reason why anyone should have to release their
returns. I have this suspicion that this issue doesn't play to the
general public nearly as well as the elite think it does. Most voters
just simply do not care about tax returns.





#1. If there was anything hinky in Trump's returns, the IRS would be all over him like a chicken on a June bug.



#2. I'd be damned surprised if he didn't have two or more agents assigned to him/his account/returns full time.

He didn't do that. The most egregious was the cyber question, which was a massive face plant for him, since it didn't even dawn on him to ask why she had a piss sprinkled server in her bathroom and why the FBI let her off scott free but said they would prosecute any other average Joe or Jane.

He just whiffed. Repeatedly.

No Sven, nothing like Orca. Do you ever read anything or just say the same old shit over and over and over?

Orca was Romney's problem. The RNC, which you say repeatedly never does anything, is the one building the field organization not Trump. Is that really hard for you to understand? The DNC had almost 3000 staffers in the field for Obama. The RNC had about 500. They are trying to correct that now.

Yes, I'm part of the liberal wing of the party. Which is why I don't support Trump, would have taken pretty much any of the other primary candidates over him who actually had remotely conservative positions, but will happily vote against Hillary.

That said, she looked just weird with a fake smile. She came across as very-well prepared but very smug and self-satisfied, like the class- know it all.
I'm actually surprised that many polls show that he won the debate, but I attribute it to the fact that those who are voting for Trump are more engaged and more likely to be on the web to answer the polls.

Don't be silly. Trump has purposely decided not to raise and spend money on his own. This isn't exactly news, he's been boasting about this since the primaries. What candidate in the past has done that?

It's always a balance of the candidate's organization and the Party. This is a unique year in the great outsider hope is relying almost exclusively on the Party to provide his ground game.

Posted by: andycanuck at September 27, 2016 10:59 AM (LdMbv)

377 I think Hillary won last night. Trump was unprepared and tried to wing
it, missing several chances to hit her hard. I'm sure he was told to be
"nice" to her and Holt was as biased as you would expect.



Hillary successfully baited him into talking extemporaneously about topics that he shouldn't have been. Like his business and "small loan from daddy", like his boast that he would consider it "winning" if he didn't pay any taxes, like his claim that he has a "great temperament" (lol I don't think even Trump's superfans would make that claim).


Trump did not hit Hillary back on topics that he should have, such as on her email server or Benghazi or on her own shady connections to the Russians or her health or anything else. There was one line about her 33,000 deleted emails but that is about it.


On the few policy issues that were discussed, they were both in disturbing agreement. Both are anti-due-process in wanting to deny constitutional rights to individuals put on a shadowy government list based only on the word of some bureaucrat, with no judge's order and no conviction of a jury, not even an indictment. Both want to out-spend each other with family leave welfare.


Overall, quite disappointing. In other words, normal for this year.

In fact I work with a lot of the sources you might see on CNBC or FoxBusiness and cover much of the same ground but with greater detail, focus and actual insight given our specialization. I'm seldom impressed, even when the bias is not apparent, with the quality of coverage our industry receives from the MSM or most of my interaction with these folk when they come looking for more specialized insight.

Hill's goals last night were to appear presidential and likeable. I think she failed on both counts. As always, she appeared as phony and as untrustwor as a Clinton denial. She clearly made one huge unforced error. Her embrace of the Iran deal was unnecessary (that disaster was on Kerry's watch). That deal is known to be dishonest, is unpopular, and is likely to plow up in her face.

That being said, Trump did not look good but at least he looked real.

Also, in the hundreds of hours of pre-debate analysis there was mention of the "who would you rather have a beer with?" measure. Trump won that one hands-down (even though he doesn't drink).

412 Look at the sales technique. Hillary was voicing the Left's objections to Trump.
Trump was eliminating the objections - sometimes by "agreeing" with Hillary and going one further (yes guns in the hands of bad ppl are bad, that's why need stop and trial), other times by correcting the record despite Lester.

By the end of the debate I think some undecided Dems are ready to buy in.

416 I'm pretty sure if Germans put their mind to destroying a Mosque it'd be gone....

It wasn't just a mosque. There was a "bomb" at a mosque and one at an International Congress Center.

For some reason, the Kraut police are sure that it was xenophobic and possible related to the upcoming National Unity Day celebrations.

Seems like pure speculation as they have nothing in the way of evidence yet.

Last night in the debate, Trump said to Hillary "you've spent $200 million in negative advertising against me and I haven't spent anything."

Do you think Hillary has spent $200 million of her own money? Of course not, he was talking about the two campaigns just like I was. Again, I never said Trump had to spend his own money.

Yes, Trump is now soliciting money. I get the emails too. He's changed more than a couple things since getting his new campaign team.

437 As I said, Trump looked unprepared. But there was something in the somewhat silly Ralph Kramden faces he was making (didn't he know they would be using a split screen??) while Hillary was talking that gave me the impression that he was frustrated as though somehow agreed upon "rules" weren't being followed and he knew he was being had--and didn't know how to change his game plan.

Did anyone else get that impression while watching?

Posted by: JoeF. at September 27, 2016 11:15 AM (cui1Q)

438 Minority view is held by Newt G, Mika B, Scott Adams and me. Neither will gain or lose with the already committed, but Trump will gain more with undecideds, even if Hillary "won" after a week off the road preparing.

True test is whether polls move.

Early Breitbart poll fits with what I wrote above. More people thought Hillary won the debate. But Trump is already + 2% with undecideds.

From here to November, there's now little that can go wrong for Trump, and Hillary still has a lot of exposure.

To an extent, yes.


I heard some talking on the radio this morning, commending her for being able to withstand the pressure of being in the spotlight all the time.


Now, that's simply not true, but that's the narrative coming from some circles, and really, the narrative is the point.


So we'll see how long she can sustain it. Frankly, I don't think she can. I think it gets harder from here.

452 >>Did anyone else get that impression while watching?


Yes.
Here's my theory: It was all about the so-called fact-checking.
Hillary's responses were brimming with stats and verifiable details. She did that purposely, and in my opinion, with full knowledge of the debate questions. Just hours before the debate her team got several news outlets to agree to "fact-check" the debate in real time. When they agreed, her team had their list of facts to "check" handy and passed them off to these networks so that *her* facts would be broadcast.

Posted by: Lizzy at September 27, 2016 11:21 AM (NOIQH)

That is exactly my impression as well. He seemed to be fighting his natural instincts the whole time. His facial expressions showed extreme frustration but he seemed to be purposely holding back.

458 Here is what people are missing on the debate: the vast majority of American voters are not political junkies like we are. From the perspective of the undecided voter (the people who matter in this election) Trump came off as a reasonable candidate for President of the United States. That is a huge win for him. Wonky win for Hillary was meaningless because it effectively changed no minds; Trump voters still for Trump - Hillary voters still idiots.

Yes Hillary could have rhetorically been sent flying several times - but EVERYONE could see that. Trump would have come off as mean if he had done that. No average person wants to see some poor old lady - who they know can barely stand up - get punched in the face.

100,000,000 people saw Hillary last night, her biggest audience ever - the more people see of her - the less they like her.

Stick a fork in Hillary - she is done.
