Because this is abut raw power for the GOP, and country first be damned.

Every Ayn Rand wet dream in Paul Ryan’s head depends on complete GOP control, and the party isn’t about to let a little thing like subversion and treason get in the way of killing health care for half the country, destroying voting rights and blowing the deficit out of the water with tax breaks.

Here’s what pisses me off about him. He does these events with the DNC under the context of “unity” and then the next day I have to see on my friend who is a huge BB’s facebook page about what Bernie says is wrong with the DNC. I’m tired of his condescending lectures to a party he won’t join. The real reason why Bernie won’t join the Dems is pretty obvious to me. It would actually mean being held accountable instead of being with the Dems when times are good i.e. defending ACA but running away from them when times are tough i.e. what he did as soon as Clinton lost.

It’s always been like this to be fair even before Sanders but Sanders’ purity tests have made people like Tom Perez who have legitimately progressive resumes out to be Blue Dogs. Sanders doesn’t seem to want to build a coalition, he seems to want people who think he should lead a revolution.

At this point, that’s all they can really manage and only because they had to nuke the filibuster. Even if McConnell is prepared to nuke the filibuster for legislation, Ryan has to first get enough votes in the House to pass anything. And that’s really the Catch-22 here: To get anything the House passes through the Senate requires bypassing the filibuster, but putting out notice that they’re going to dispense with the filibuster makes it harder for House Republicans to pass anything. When they could count on Reid to kill a bill or Obama to filibuster it, they could pass virtually anything they wanted. But now that it might actually become law, they’re suddenly gun shy in the extreme.

I fear that there are so many compromised GOP players involved that he’s going to be the first rat off the ship and take whatever “high ground” that can be found as all of this comes out. The big part is how many news organizations are going to be taking the straight feed from the IC and make careers of the information. Considering the willing obtuseness of the MSM players and the NYT, even if it does all get drug out, it may be an incredibly painful process, much like Watergate, each revelation leading to something even more fucking unfathomable…

re: #23 Anymouse

Felix Randomkitty Update Number Six:

I just got off the telephone with the veterinarian. She tells me that Felix is no longer on an IV. He was active yesterday, but is a little lethargic today. His blood sugar has been swinging from 60 (way too low) to 600 (way too high).

She believes he has turned the corner, but the blood sugar swings may be related to the fact that sometimes cats’ diabetes improve and only require diabetic cat food with no further insulin. She has discontinued his insulin as of yesterday and wants to observe him for one more day. She suggests one more day for him in the kitty hospital, to which I agreed. So Felix will not come home today.

I also asked her if it would be too much trouble if she could get a picture of Felix, herself, and the staff that saved his life, so I could post it here to Little Green Footballs.

“Sure!” she said. She will E-mail that to me, and I will post it here in a sidebar article summarising Felix’s brush with death.

So, one more day for the Kitteh of Chez Tumbleweed.

And I’m sure virtually NO legal argument, however well-founded or well-reasoned, is going to have the least effect on the opinions of the typical Trump voters, for whom the simplistic equation of “ILLEGAL!! CRIMINAL!! DEPORT THEM!!!” is all they can comprehend or care about.

From the last thread:
re: #144 Skip Intro

I had a cat with kidney failure. I was going to put him down, but at the last minute I couldn’t do it.

I kept him alive for around 18 months by force feeding him and giving him subcutaneous fluids multiple times a day. I didn’t get a day off for the entire 18 months, and I imagine the total cost of keeping him alive would have bought me a late model pickup.

Still, I’m glad I did it, because up till the very end he was pretty much a normal cat. Plus his brother would have missed him.

So good luck with yours. It isn’t easy or cheap, but it’s even harder to let them go as long as there’s a chance.

I’m sorry to hear of your cat.

Pets, it turns out, are not much different than any other family member. The issue is deciding whether to euthanise a pet or continue treatment is rough, especially if you’re relatively poor.

When we first went to the vet over Felix’s diabetes late last summer, the vet seemed genuinely hurt when she concluded he in fact had diabetes; in all situations in the past she’s wound up euthanising cats with the disorder. She seemed mightily relieved when I asked simply, “Okay, what do we have to do?”

I also quipped I didn’t euthanise my wife… .

Concern Loch Ness Monster Missing after No Sightings in Eight Months

Whether it has ever been seen is questionable, but there is growing concern for the Loch Ness Monster after eight months without a sighting.

Nessie was last spotted in August last year but 2017 has far failed to yield any sightings of the mysterious creature.

The lack of sightings of Scotland’s most famous resident is in stark contrast to 2016 when it was seen eight times, the most 200.

They have an invasion route. God-Emperor Drumpf chastised us in the wild north country because we are too soft on immigration, letting those sneaky Canuckistanians run amok in our back woods.

I always thought the St. Clair River Float-Down was a good way to drown in the St. Clair River. The Coast Guards of both countries usually have to fish drunk people out of the river every year after they capsize.

Supposedly after the stunt last year where everyone was blown across the border to Sarnia, Ontario and Michigan were supposed to come up with a way to try to make it somewhat safer. I never heard if anything came of that.

Typical Breitbart article attacking Serena Williams for responding to Ilie Nastase’s racist comment about her unborn child. Calling her “snowflake” for getting upset over something that was “not racist” at all. And of course the comment sections are “not racist,”
because “black people can’t take criticisms,
theyy always have to play the race card!”

re: #96 Anymouse

Semi-random OT based on that: I had some friends, in college, who decided to flat-boat down the Wabash River back in fish country. They had a fire pit on board and were having a roaring good time. That is, until a county sheriff came up alongside them on the shore and asked them to please pull their boat up. Apparently, someone called them in, thinking they were running a floating meth lab. My response was, wait, that’s a thing?

and I’m guessing that the yam has no freaking clue how much American dairy farmers are benefiting from the largesse of American taxpayers to prop up their businesses…

and just take a look at where the vast majority of American timber ends up.

Clue: Not in the USA at first but as finished lumber being imported back to the USA from some place over on the other side to the Pacific….

This year’s Float Down, now with rules!

- Float on something sea-worthy
- Stay out of the shipping lane: Inner tube vs. ship, ship wins
- Ontario is the east shore - don’t go there.

&c

I SO wanted to be at Wanee this year for the awesome lineup. I would and have traveled many miles to see Widespread Panic, but Spirit of the Suwanee is a magical place. If you get the chance to see your favorite band there, don’t miss it.

The smell alone, on a hot day, would keep the undocumented away.

Trump puts out what the Trumpers can consume.

Basically, single sentences.

And not always complete sentences.

Now, let’s see. trump starts a trade war by adding a tariff to Canadian lumber being imported into the US. Of course this increases the cost for ALL lumber, from both Canada and the US.

So, now any lumber needed to build his wall is going to cost “somebody” a lot more $’s.
And the price of the wall goes even higher.

Boy, that trump president guy has a good head for business. He’s real good at increasing business costs so businesses can go bankrupt even faster.

My head is spinning.
