I like the artist's use of color and detail. I've seen other of his paintings which bring out these qualities even more. But the blank expression on the model's face really detracts from the painting. I would rather have the work without the guy. If that is the model's usual expression, Rusinol should have chosen another person.

They failed on the Mueller Report, they failed on Robert Mueller's testimony, they failed on everything else, so now the Democrats are trying to build a case that I enrich myself by being President. Good idea, except I will, and have always expected to, lose BILLIONS of DOLLARS.. ....for the privilege of being your President - and doing the best job that has been done in many decades.

RAS has Trump JA at 50/49 today.
It's been inching up lately. 50 is definitely a reelect #. 49 & 48 = probable reelect. I dunno what's caused the uptick. DEM debate? More good DJIA & economic news? I am optimistic that the China trade dispute will be settled sooner rather than later.

Speaking of bikes and emus, I used ride my bike past this one farm, where the guy kept emus. They were in this pen right by the road, with just a sketchy looking wire fence keeping them in. I used to ride really fast through there, because I was terrified one of these things would get loose and come after me. I don't know, it was just this phobia I had of them. Those things are big. I imagine it would be like getting chased by one of those raptors from Jurassic park. I would always wonder if dog spray would work on them?

past 100, so just saw another item on the Kavanaugh story that the NYT also forgot to mention (from Sarah Carter). Not only did they forgot to mention that the supposed victim has no memory of anything like that ever happening, but they also forgot to say that the "concerned citizen" Max Stier, who claims to have witnessed it, just happens to be one of Bill Clinton's former defense attorneys, who has a long standing grudge against Kavanaugh from when they were on opposite sides during the Whitewater investigation.
So, a personal friend of Bill & Hillary Clinton just "happened" to have witnessed Terrible Things involving Brett Kavanaugh. Who he hated. No, not political at all. Posted by: Tom Servo at September 16, 2019 10:20 AM (Kpl3J) 206

I mean, I don't think he's suddenly pro-Trump, but him turning into grudgingly-Trump is probably a really good indicator of where the squishy middle could end up. ---------- He said he didn't like the guy and wouldn't vote for him. But he has never been like the NeverTrump crowd. I suspect he is representative of many who didn't vote for Trump the first go round. I don't know if it is just the Kavanaugh smear that makes you reconsider your position on Trump, or if that is just one of many (maybe the biggest).

Lizzy will know.
About month after Kavanaugh was confirmed, it was revealed the FBI recieved thousands of claims of rape and misconduct on Kavanaugh. All of which were, of course, bogus. Anyone else remember that? Yep, we do. Progda, however, doesn't. Every day is a brand new day for them. So very very many things are forgotten in the desperate attempt to tear down Orangemanbad and everything he stands for. Along with all us deplorables who voted for him. Sorry assholes, but you're never going to shame me for that.

The FBI talked with 12 people face to face. Not one person new of the incident and the 2 claimed witnesses said they never saw with their eyes what Ramirez claimed.
Posted by: rhennigantx at September 16, 2019 10:44 AM (JFO2v) I noted that as well, and that is one of the most crucial points of the Libel the NYT committed here. They intentionally misused the word "Corroborate" which legally means that you have gotten other people to back up the first witnesses story with independent information. What they did was to "confirm" with other people that someone had been saying this - but a simple "confirmation" that something was said tells you nothing at all about whether or not the underlying story is true. That's why they misused the word "corroborate", because that word DOES imply that that underlying story is true. This was done by people who write words for a living, they deliberately and maliciously chose that language to give a false impression, and they knew exactly what they were doing.

Two things stood out. First, they used the word "corroborate" when indeed what they were claiming was not the incident, but the aftermath. Apparently Kavanaugh at some point in the proceedings (or maybe it was his lawyer's statement) that IF such an incident had occurred (the Ramirez event), it would have been the talk of the school. Allegedly, according to the article, there are folks who were at school at the time who are willing to "corroborate" that it was, indeed, the talk of the school. ------------------------------------- The FBI talked with 12 people face to face. Not one person new of the incident and the 2 claimed witnesses said they never saw with their eyes what Ramirez claimed. Posted by: rhennigantx at September 16, 2019 10:44 AM (JFO2v) The narrative, the one the twatters will all be twatting, is that there are "hundreds" of people at the school who can "corroborate" that it was indeed the talk of the school. Which, by that logic, I guess that means whatever is stated at the back end of the telephone game must now be considered true and "corroborated" fact.

Posted by: dagny _____________________ Yeah, the NYT reports "several" of Kav's friends pushed Kav's dick into the woman's hand. First, Kav must be very well endowed to have a dick big enough that "several" guys can get their hands on it. Second, no way any normal dude lets "several" other, or even any other, guys handle his dick. Didn't happen -- except maybe in Stier's homo fantasies.

Iranian proxy attacking Saudi Arabia seems like a stretch to me. We are allies still but the Saudis have not even asked us to do anything for them.
Posted by: blaster at September 16, 2019 10:59 AM (9VeU0) The main argument for the US taking the lead is that it gives the Iranians a clear of the forces they're going to face if they persist. If we do nothing, it will be up to Saudi and Israel to launch strikes, which they will do, and that will encourage to let loose all of their missiles (and they've got quite a few) against both countries. And that's when shit will REALLY hit the fan. If we act now, decisively, we might still be able to top WWIII from breaking out. Posted by: Tom Servo at September 16, 2019 11:05 AM (Kpl3J) 445

Thankfully, the kids are grown and out of the house. Alimony, the house, and a piece of my 403(b) are really what's on the table.
Insomniac, I just dropped you a quick line. Posted by: Pulsing Brain joncelli at September 16, 2019 10:59 AM (RD7QR) Well the obvious question there is does she work? Has she worked in the past, any job skills? If she was working it should be relatively easy to argue that you go your separate ways with your respective contributions(retirement, equity in the house, no alimony). Of course your starting position will be more aggressive than that. If she didn't work, a good rough target point is modest alimony(support, not an income, maybe a few hundred a month), for a few years, because she can find work and support herself. Either way unless it's a rare case where she earns more than you, no alimony is the starting point. Posted by: Someguy at September 16, 2019 11:06 AM (Wj9tV) 448

Like there's some agreement within the guild, they're not going to fight your battles, but the "opposing" sides are all about getting you and your soon-to-be ex to agree, so the lawyers can get out of there as easily as possible and collect their cash.
Posted by: BurtTC at September 16, 2019 10:45 AM (cY3LT) Sounds accurate. This is possible because the guild also controls the political machinery (what's the #1 profession of politicians?), so nobody can go after them for conspiracy. Posted by: Cato, Collectivism Delenda Est at September 16, 2019 10:55 AM (J+mig) It seems to play out that way a lot in criminal cases too. Especially when the alleged perp has a public defender. Before the case goes to court, the defendant says stuff like "my lawyer this," and "my lawyer that." I don't think they get it... it ain't YOUR lawyer! It's the court's lawyer, and his job is to get your case settled as quickly and as cheaply as possible. Another myth they spread on teevee all the time, of the little tiny lone public defender, going up against the big scary machine of the prosecution office. Often their offices are right down the hall from each other. Posted by: BurtTC at September 16, 2019 11:06 AM (cY3LT) 450

The reason the US can't stand back from a major war in the middle east is because the world economy will be destroyed if the Saudi and Iranian fields are destroyed, which a war of mutual destruction could cause. We may have enough oil for ourselves, but our economy won't survive if Japan, Europe, and China all plunge into Great Depression II because their energy supplies are all destroyed, and we don't have nearly enough oil to supply ourselves and them too.

The allegation comes from a guy who was at Yale at the same time, who says that his best friend's sister's boyfriend's brother's girlfriend heard from this guy who knows this kid who's going with the girl who saw a bunch of guys put Kav's penis on some other girls hand. Oh, and the girl whose hand it was, theoretically, says not only that Kavanaugh didn't do it, but the incident never happened AT ALL. Posted by: blaster at September 16, 2019 11:18 AM (9VeU0) Thanks, that's the part I forgot (from yesterday), that this "new" allegation... which IS reported in the new book about to be released, or was just released. A second UNCORROBORATED incident, where Kavanaugh's peener was getting around. Posted by: BurtTC at September 16, 2019 11:22 AM (cY3LT) 511
I think whoever said above that Kav got cowed and now they are continuing to cow him is right.
-------- I just don't see it - why would that be necessary? Kavanaugh was a GOPe Bush-machine man... IOW likely enough to be a default-liberal justice in the mold of Roberts. Why antagonize him? I think the simple explanation is that they went all-out to prevent him being seated, it didn't work, and they have no dry powder for the next fight, so they are grasping at straws to come up with anything they can use to cast aspersions on Trump Court picks. Posted by: Yudhishthira's Dice at September 16, 2019 11:14 AM (AzW6q) No. Brett's religious convictions and the fact that he's married with TWO DAUGHTERS plays into the Left's calculations. Think about it--what if Kavanaugh DID do something untoward to a woman back in the '80's. Maybe not this one, and maybe not as bad as this story. But what if he did? Then , being a practicing Catholic, he feels GUILTY. How can he atone?? By doing something "nice" for women.

Thankfully, the kids are grown and out of the house. Alimony, the house, and a piece of my 403(b) are really what's on the table.

See, I always believed that Clarence Thomas DID ask Anita Hill on a date. I don't believe the pubic hair or Long Dong Silver bullshit, but if admitted to having asked her out, then they would have believed EVERYTHING.
So he had to lie. Posted by: JoeF. at September 16, 2019 11:24 AM (NFEMn) 515
507 So say I have an IRA that I opened before I got married. It has $10K in it. Now it has $100K. So the initial $10K is mine and the $90k is common property?
That sounds kinda fucked. Posted by: Lurking Lurker - Not In My Purview at September 16, 2019 11:16 AM (FiUMj) So your wife or husband or whatever had no role in helping your IRA grow? Posted by: Jen the original at September 16, 2019 11:20 AM (sAUq3) No. On net, she was nothing more than a financial liability. Flushed money down the toilet faster than I could make it, so I put less in than I could have. Bitch still walked away with half. Posted by: Insomniac at September 16, 2019 11:24 AM (NWiLs) 516

Posted by: Lurking Lurker - Not In My Purview at September 16, 2019 11:16 AM --- That's pretty much how it works in most States. Joint property rules vary from State to State, but most States generally agree any wealth/property accumulated after "marriage" is joint property*. *Exclusions apply.

I'd like to hope that a Christian would recognize that his enemies will do anything to defeat him, and by extension, all of us deplorables who dared to vote for OMB. He'd know they were lying and that all he needs to do is tell the truth. Their allegations cannot be given any sort of credit and I think a lot of voters are seeing the pattern of negative hit pieces against PDT's administration seeing through all their bullshit tactics. He should sue. This outright lying by Progda has gone on long enough. Clean them out. He's a lawyer that made it to the top of his field. If there was ever a justification for lawfare, he should be able to leave just the smoking husk of a business as a reminder to...um, make that encourage...the others.
