Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | Politico: Tim Walz Sometimes Has a Tendency to "Misspeak"Politico just femsplained to us yesterday that Tim Walz's panicky Coward's Eyes were just a sign of "passion" and "emotional intensity" that will make women hot and bothered, but that JD Vance's beard demonstrates toxic masculinity that will make women disgusted. They're now here to explain that Walz's long, long list of documented lies are just some excusable "misspeaking" from an man who's "just so honest" that he frequently lets that honesty cause him to accidentally tell a lot of lies that are helpful to him.Tim Walz has a tendency to misspeak. It may haunt the campaign.Strange. That's not the word you use when Republicans misspeak. Of course Kamala Harris didn't know-- she doesn't know anything. How many times have we read articles, planted by Kamala Harris's embarrassed and abused staffers, stating that Kamala Harris doesn't bother to do the most basic homework and read their digests of the current cycle's news and the Administration's policies, and then she rips them for leaving her "unprepared"? That's where Kamala Harris's favorite excuse originated -- she would respond to these articles by having another of her aides leak to the press that sometimes her staff "Fails to Position Kamala for Success." Her loyal aides also leaked it that Joe Biden and the White House staff were also "Failing to Position Kamala for Success." Well, your staff can write your reports for you, Kamala, but they can't read them for you. If you want to get schnockered by 2:30 pm every single day and spend the rest of the day in a drunken daze, it's really your alcoholism that is Failing to Position You For Success. She's a DEI hire. Always has been. It's always on the White Man to do her homework for her and rig things so that she gets Social Promotion after Social Promotion up the career ladder. ... The most recent example came Tuesday, when a CBS debate moderator pressed Walz over his claim that he had been in Hong Kong during the Tiananmen Square protests in 1989, when Hong Kong was still under British rule (Hong Kong returned to Chinese rule in 1997). Walz over the years had said publicly he had been in Hong Kong during the crackdown in Beijing, including 10 years ago in Congress. But on Tuesday during the debate, he awkwardly responded that "all I said on this was, is, I got there that summer," and "I'm a knucklehead at times" before conceding he "misspoke." On Wednesday, Walz sought to clean up his debate comments during a campaign stop in the battleground state of Pennsylvania, where polling shows Harris and Trump virtually tied. "Yeah, look, I have my dates wrong," Walz told reporters in Harrisburg. "I was in Hong Kong in China in 1989. ... I speak like everybody else speaks. I need to be clearer." Candidates running for higher office have long embellished their records or personal histories. President Joe Biden had long been known to overstate even minor details of his personal life, like his academic achievements. Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.) in 2010 had to explain why he misstated his military record when he claimed he served in Vietnam when he in fact served in the Marine Corps Reserves during the Vietnam War -- but stateside. Former Rep. George Santos is well known for lying about a number of things, including that his mother was killed in the 9/11 attacks Walz's misstatements could contradict the image that the campaign has painted of him as an upstanding, everyday Midwest guy. "He's just honest," Bob Frisby, 70, who lives in Rochester, Minnesota, recalled of Walz in an interview shortly after Harris tapped the governor as her running mate.What an incredible claim Politico has inserted in an article about Walz's problem being that he's just not honest. "Lying" is "just speaking passionately" -- when a Marxist does it. BDW Chris Stigall The Vigilant Fox

Politico also recently had a hilarious article where the usual pollsters explained that "Heavens, no! We're not underestimating the Trump vote like we did in 2016 and 2020!"
The main evidence that they presented was that their final polls in swing states approximated the actual results in 2020. Of course, what they didn't explain is that they had Biden far ahead in swing states for most of the campaign season, and only narrowed the margin right before the election. Now, Trump/Harris is being presented as a very close vote in swing states - it will be interesting to see if Trump starts racing ahead in the polling because the election is coming.

Masculinity is wonderful. The women I know revel in their husband's masculinity. They, like me, want a man who is a real person. A man who isn't afraid to fight, sweat, get his hands dirty, and feel whatever he feels. We want our men to be gentle with babies, tougher with teenagers, and equal to any other adult. We want a man with balls knowing he will use them to defend us or fuck us senseless. We don't care if he swears or spits as long as he keeps the swearing to a minimum in public, especially at funerals, and doesn't spit in the house. We know he will work hard at his job and come home to work his ass off keeping up with household repairs. He will hold us when we just can't anymore, push us when we just don't want to, keep us safe and ignore the Jones family "mine is bigger" bullshit.
He is my fortress. He shelters me from the storms and keeps me safe and sane. True masculinity is a gift from God to women and children. Posted by: Madamemayhem (uppity wench) at October 03, 2024 03:08 PM (4XwPj) Posted by: Washington Nearsider at October 03, 2024 04:10 PM (FAbrK) 80

I feel that the debate moderators asked him about the least bad thing so that they could pretend that they were being even handed. To me, the Tiananmen Square lie is nothing compared to lying about his military service. Also, they should've asked a broader question about his ties to China. Instead, they served up a question that doesn't matter to most people.

Let’s be clear here. Propaganda is fundamental to Marxism and Communism. That is, to control the dialogue by any means necessary, such as having the media as your surrogate and a mouthpiece for your lies. You then further poison the dialogue, making the lie into the “fact” because there are no alternate viewpoints or the truth presented.
This is exactly what is happening under the Democrats regime. You see it every day in the media. You saw it at the debate. You see it here with Tampon Tim. It’s why they despise the First Amendment and try to label any demonstrable truth as “misinformation”. These are not good people and their aim is insidious.

Posted by: anachronda at October 03, 2024 04:32 PM (sGtp+) ======= I keep thinking back to 2020 and the Democrat primaries when we were assured that the Democrat base would never, ever vote for a white, straight man ever, ever again. And then two straight white men ran away with it (Bernie and Biden). The actual Democrat base likes old white men. The activists who populate the media and work campaigns want anything else. There's a deep divide between the party and the base that seems really evident to me. The party bending over backwards to appeal to a sliver of a tiny minority population feels like something they would do, but it doesn't seem necessarily driven by actual electoral politics. At least, as people traditionally understand electoral politics to mean: winning elections by appealing to the most voters.

Here's a trick I've used: just write. Write anything. Write that you don't know what to write, or write that you're blocked, or write that you're not sure how to organize the piece, but just keep writing. It works; by doing that, you can write yourself out of the writer's block. Then just delete all the prefatory rubbish.
Posted by: Deplorable Jay Guevara at October 03, 2024 04:37 PM (YqDXo) I can't write anything until I get the opening correct. Once I do that, it all seems to flow much easier. But if your opening is off a little bit, everything else seems to get incrementally worse. Posted by: The Central Scrutinizer at October 03, 2024 04:42 PM (KbCG3) 244

Stephen King: JD Vance never lost that snotty little half-smile--the expression of a used car salesman who just convinced
a potential buyer that the CHECK ENGINE light on the used Toyota he’s trying to get off the lot is a computer glitch. A used car salesman is who he really is. Trump is a used car. With lights on the dash and the car’s computer is going crazy. He's really a very deranged man, you know. He lives along the precipice, has for decades, and as VP cum POTUS he'll try to take us all there with him. From delusion to disaster, he's the man of the moment for horror/adventure. That smug sneer of the elite when he wasn't pretending to be from Appalachia. Such hogwash! very punchable face. Violence is never the answer but cant deny that his smirk inspires the urge When Walz was dressing him down about not refusing to say that TFG had lost the election in 2020, I noticed his repeated and frequent swallowing, which the beard hides a bit. He was trying very hard to look completely calm and unfazed, but I think he was in a state of heightened alert and deep panic, like he'd been found out and the game was up.

What's the high level overview on rooting process? Anything special?
Posted by: Comrade Flounder, Disinformation Demon at October 03, 2024 04:37 PM (i24o9) Usually you need to use root-tone or a related rooting hormone to get roots started, and the plant has to be in the right part of the growth period, which changes from species and family. Tomatoes are dead easy, since the hairs on the stem turn into roots, and grapes and strawberries are vining plants that root from nodes naturally when they touch the ground. Apples and roses don't. I have had luck with "layering" shoots in apples, which is burying the tips of the suckers in dirt, but it is hard to do when the tree is 30' tall. You have to keep the shoots damp, you have to encourage root growth, and that is a combination I haven't figured out. I may start cloning them instead, that is complicated but is what the source nurseries do, that is just wet-bench work that is kept absolutely clean due to fungal and viral concerns. But it requires space. Posted by: Kindltot at October 03, 2024 04:44 PM (D7oie) 258

Ace, I think it's a pattern of progressive male behaviour & it's now instilled in them that anyone who deviates from it the problem, not them.
In just a few hours, you've 'touch upon' 😏 Mayorkus, Chris Murphy, Doug Emhoff, Tim Walz. Everyone of them is a liar. In fact, this afternoon I was driving back from a cemetery & decided to sit in traffic to NPR's Here & Now, a week old podcast that was playing: "PoliticsGirl - Cheat to Win: A Conversation with Democracy Super Lawyer Mark Elias." Listening to him, I though: Another Tim Walz! And because I've never laid eyes on the guy, I had to come home and get the above show, from Sep. 24th, on YouTube. And now I believe I'm right; he was very "Walzy" to me. He and "PoliticsGirl" (an understatement, that ship has sailed but she's also a Type) ran through their little written scripts about the Big Lie and, frankly, so much of the program was nothing lies, exaggerations, mistruths, incomplete facts. I was also amazed about the nature of Elias' presentation - simplistic, the same repetitive nonsense we've heard for years, dress down day for dummies, etc. BTW, he's Harris' campaign lawyer.

“ We are now paying for the government to bombard us with propaganda”
Very few people ever thought the government would use things like that or the Patriot Act against the U.S. population. It was almost unthinkable and I don’t think most people realize just how dangerous and insidious Democrats have been. They have trampled tradition, law and constitution in ways we never imagined possible in our republic. They have used the government against the people who own it. They have marginalized, jailed, attacked and tried to destroy anyone who opposes them. They are now undermining our electoral and immigration system to stay in power, and to use those as auspices in their battle against the popular will of the people. This is hurtling us towards a very dangerous place and if people don’t wake up to this next election it’s only going to get worse. Posted by: Vengeance at October 03, 2024 04:47 PM (2t43q) 276

The Longshoremens union is going to quickly become the most hated group of people in the country. The average citizen sees this for what it is, a hostage situation. Hopefully this is used to bust the union, as Desantis is doing in Florida.
This should provide a cautionary note to the GOP about union support. Remember that many unions made it unprofitable to manufacture in the US. It wasn’t just the companies looking to preserve profit. It was in many cases the demands of organized labor that made them unable to maintain margins that would enable R and D or keep shareholders happy. That doesn’t mean there were not shitty companies doing it for profit. But they were the minority. Posted by: Vengeance at October 03, 2024 04:52 PM (2t43q) 303

This should provide a cautionary note to the GOP about union support. Remember that many unions made it unprofitable to manufacture in the US. It wasn’t just the companies looking to preserve profit. It was in many cases the demands of organized labor that made them unable to maintain margins that would enable R and D or keep shareholders happy. That doesn’t mean there were not shitty companies doing it for profit. But they were the minority.

You can’t say bring back manufacturing and in the same breath say give the unions what they want. If you look at the numbers, auto manufacturing margins continue to shrink. A lot of that is all the regulations the government has foisted on them to try and put gasoline cars out of business. But the other big part are unions taking way too big of a chunk out of the overall profits. Are we a capitalist nation or not?

I'm gonna double down now. I also believe that the pollsters who undercounted GOP voters in 2020 have made an effort to address that problem. Some of the decidedly GOP-friendly pollsters, such as Trafalgar, are showing pretty much the same thing as the others are, IIRC. As a result, I don't think the undercounting of Trump voters will be as bad as it was in 2024. If you haven't guessed yet... I'm not a natural born optimist. I trust no-one will conclude I'm a DU plant. If so, I'm the kind of DU plant who's already voted for Trump, & who's given as generously as I could to his campaign this year... and last time... and time before last.

How does one move from "it's a baby, as soon as it has its own DNA" to "It's okay to murder a FEW babies, just not ones we would recognize." ???? Honestly, if you want to get rid of your baby, give it to me. I will raise it.

Let's just be honest, Trump has no interest in outlawing abortion. He already said he wouldn't sign a federal abortion ban and has blasted other Republican Governors for signing too draconian state abortion bans.
No interest in losing elections tilting at windmills on abortion. It's a losing issue, even in the red states. There's maybe 5 states where a hard pro-life position works, the rest of the country has no interest in it.

Posted by: Eeyore at October 03, 2024 05:09 PM (1bNHn) Of course that's bullshit, but let's start with the given: The Republican Party really couldn't possibly care less about abortions. Now, once we've gotten past that, has it occurred to people that maybe... just maybe that same Gope party has sabotaged the abortion issue, because they don't care, and only say they do because their voters care? Truth is, a "reasonable" ban on late term abortions... hell, any abortion past the point of survivability would be overwhelmingly popular with MOST voters, and only opposed by the rabid pro-baby killers. But nincompoops in the Republican Party have sabotaged the attempts to limit it, where and when they can, because most of them are shithole politicians.

I'm gonna double down now. I also believe that the pollsters who undercounted GOP voters in 2020 have made an effort to address that problem.
== I'm only semi optimistic. But what Trump has going to him is: 1) he's way ahead of where he was at this same time in 2020 2) The election is not tomorrow, and Trump almost always rises in the closing days 3) Every group polled seems to show Kamala doing way worse than Biden did 4) the election is not national, it's state by state, and if Trump outperforms by about 1% from 2020 in these same states, he wins 5) Trump's campaign has made a big push for supporters to vote early, I absolutely think his opposition to this cost him dearly in 2020 Posted by: Blago at October 03, 2024 05:14 PM (7fVoL) Posted by: man who lives as a pig at October 03, 2024 05:15 PM (vFG9F) 414

You see Fetterman stepping up behind Walz in the last video clip? Another clip has Fetterman stepping up to the mic to make a statement. Oh, man was he pissed. I'm convinced that when Walz said he was palz with David Hogg, Fetterman heard it and thought that nailed down a Trump victory in Pennsylvania. Period. And he's right.

If the GOP were to push a ban on late term
Abortions, they’d be in a no win position. The left would scream about taking away a woman’s choice. And the right would scream that they’re ONLY banning late term abortions, therefore endorsing all other abortions. Posted by: Settled Science at October 03, 2024 05:17 PM (oajh5) 420

At the moment the result of "Making the federal government do what we want about abortion" is going to be similar to what we are getting with "making the federal government do what someone else wants about men in women's lockerooms" or once upon a time when the push was "Making the federal government do what someone else wants about supporting slavery"
If you want a despotic government that does your bidding, then what you want is a betrayal of all the constitutional posing that goes on here. The other option is to get the word out, get the education out, and make sure the morality is questioned, not the legality of having a bureaucracy with guns enforce whatever the current truth is.

Abortion - let each state decide. Don't like what a specific state decides? Go protest in that state and leave the rest of us out of it.
Honestly, every other country on Earth has figured this shit out, and we have a million and one more important problems to deal with then abortion. Both parties like abortion as an issue because 1) they can raise heaps of money off it 2) They don't have to do a blessed thing. Everyone is free to lie about it constantly.

You raise valid points. Also, it's hard for pollsters to adjust for "response bias"-- i.e., conservatives & MAGA voters are less willing to take polls. Ditto for rural voters. Because it's so much cheaper, most pollsters rely in whole or in part on 'Net polling. Again, young urban voters are more likely to submit themselves to that, so they tend to be overrepresented.

Anybody vetting whether his kid ACTUALLY witnessed someone get shot? What were the circumstances? Was the shooter apprehended? Anything?
I'm generously putting the odds at 70/30 his son did not actually witness the shooting. Until I know more, at most I'll tentatively believe he may have been in the general proximity of the shooting. But actually witness it? Nah, too politically convenient. I ain't buying it. Not with his record. Posted by: Anonymous at October 04, 2024 09:53 AM (FyIgq) 435
