— Gabriel Malor Happy Thursday.
It is Pope Benedict's final day as pope. In the UK, bookies are taking bets on who will be the next pontiff.
The House is apparently ready to pass the Senate's expanded version of VAWA. Just two months ago, the House was saying "no way," and taking some pretty significant lumps for letting VAWA to expire. Apparently, House GOP's thinking has changed, though I haven't heard the reason for it. No doubt they don't really want to talk about it.
There'll be a bit more drama in Congress over the sequester, but House GOP is standing firm for the moment and is even planning to keep the sequester cuts in the CR that's expected by the end of March (since there's no anticipation the Senate will get off its ass and approve a budget).

Ironically, the school district has a policy that prohibits a school from compelling students to recite the American Pledge of Allegiance.
There is nothing “ironic” about it. The schools have been taken over by anti-American leftists and anything that is pro-American is prohibited. This school also allows students to opt out of reciting the Declaration of Independence. The only thing “ironic” about this is that the school is in Texas. But as usual, the taxpayers will be the only people held accountable.

House majority leader Eric Cantor is increasingly frustrated with a group of House Republicans who are working against the leadership, and heÂ’s not afraid of voicing his dismay.
IOW the “leadership” doesn’t like conservatives. No shit. So why do conservative not like this stupid bill? Well it never has been needed to begin with. Violence against anybody is already against the law and the bill overall is an unconstitutional foray into State matters. But this is why they are actually opposing it from an earlier article, which nobody mentions in today’s news:
In April, the Senate hammered out legislation that included protections for Native Americans, undocumented immigrants, and gay, lesbian and transgender victims in addition to those already protected under the legislation.
So an already shitty bill is made even more shitty and the House “leadership” will shit on you if you don’t support it. The Republican Party is getting deader by the day. And BTW, they passed it.
And like almost every bill that is written now the contents of the bill bare no resemblance to the title.

Budget Cuts Could Force Army and Marines to Cut 200,000 Troops
snip
It's true that sequestration is a tiny cut to total federal spending. But it is also true that sequestration is a major cut to defense spending.
Not a word of that BS is “true”. It is not a cut, it is a reduction in the damn increase and it will not “force” any damn thing. While true that Obama may use it as an excuse to cut troops, but that will just be another Obama lie.

Good morning, 'rons and 'ronettes. I was asked for some Shelley Winters stories, but all I can find so far in my collection are merely lists of the men she slept with. Interesting in a vicarious way, I suppose, but not really funny. This story's not really funny, either, but it's all I have right now:
Sometime around 1950, the Welsh poet Dylan Thomas made his way to Hollywood. Like any tourist, he told his host, the screenwriter Ivan Moffat, that he wanted to meet a movie star. Moffat brought him around to meet Shelley Winters, who had recently been given the role of Alice Tripp, the doomed factory girl in the Paramount picture A Place in the Sun. After the introductions, Thomas pointed to Winters' substantial rack and asked "Are they really real?" Winters replied that he could touch if he didn't believe; slowly and tentatively, the poet reached out with his index finger to touch her breast, then pulled the digit back with a nod, convinced of their substantiation. Later on, Thomas would tell Moffat that he had attempted to seduce Winters, but that she refused him "in language which was as direct as a stevedore's."
I was also asked for a Richard Harris story, which is much easier. Here's one from his early years: at the age of 17, his father ordered him to drive a truck to Dublin and be back home no later than 7.30 that night. After making his delivery, Harris naturally called in at the nearest pub for a refreshing snort. "Fuck it," he thought. "I can take the back roads and be home in no time." So Harris began sinking the pints and eventually, lit to the gills, got behind the wheel and headed home. Soon, up ahead, he saw a bridge warning "Clearance 12 feet." Thinking he could just make it, Harris floored the accelerator, but hit the thing and nearly lifted it off its pillars.
As Harris recovered from the collision, there was a tap at the window. Rolling it down, our hero saw a very unimpressed copper standing there. "Sorry, officer, I havenÂ’t time," Harris shrugged. "You see, I'm just delivering this bridge to Limerick."
So there we are. Just little appetizers after the long stories we've had the last three days, but I hope you liked them. IÂ’ve got new software to figure out this morning, so this will be my only post for a bit. I'll also be taking the next few days off, just to have a little time alone to write and relax. I'll be back on Tuesday; until then, I hope you all keep well, happy and healthy.

Keep in mind that the VAWA contains language that makes stuff that is not remotely violent illegal as well.

Yes.....that's part of the Affordable Handgun Act.
As well as Federal subsidies to reduce the cost of firearms lessons for low income, minority women and single mothers.
Really wish I could find a link.
And remember who the Democrat was that put it forth.

When I read that I immediately thought about the Declaration of Independence and the fact that it reads:
"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness."
It does not say a guarantee of happiness. That's what the fools running things now seem to think it says.

You know, that's funny, because if I'm a Lance Corporal who's discharged, that sure looks like a cut to me.
And no, Vic, there's not another option, which was my point. That would be the point you missed.
The sequestration cuts are so large that they blow through the caps that Congress imposed to allow DoD some internal budget flexibility. They can't move enough money around to stop a troop cut, because they run out of cap space before they even get halfway to the number they need to move. This is why DoD has been bitching for a year - unsuccessfully - be be allowed temporary authority to exceed the reprogramming caps. So they could avoid personnel cuts.
I don't tell you you're full of shit when you talk about nuclear power plants. Don't tell me I'm full of shit on DoD budgetary issues - because that's what I do.

That's right. It can.
I leave aside the fact that it already took a $400B cut in 2010 when no one else did. But yes, they can afford another one. It's fine.
But they have to be allowed to make judgment calls on what to cut and where, and they are not being allowed to do so.

The point isn't that DC prevailed. The point is that after ruling it was an individual right he added a statement that allowed open season on certain types of weapons without providing any limitations at all, other than a handgun was allowed.
And the other thing is the "practical side" of the Heller ruling. DC still virtually prohibits handguns. And so does every other large city in the US.
So we really haven't won anything.

Look I am not offering acrimony anymore HJ I made my peace with it at the time, understanding that Team MATH! will not budge and the Luap Nors here would rebel if we played hardball on defense being 50% of the cut.

I said, “Well, you know, my shotgun will do better for you than your AR-15, because you want to keep someone away from your house, just fire the shotgun through the door.”
There is absolutely nothing funny about this statement.

if you're a serious baker do me a favor...mom used to bake tapioca based cookies somehow...I'd send 50 bucks to the person who can recapture her method.
She may have been crazy but that woman could cook...well cook desserts anyway her meat was 'good and done."

With Skype, Go-to-meeeting, etc etc....why do our Reps and Senators even need to stay in DC.....I think they should be required to live in their state....work there and travel to DC twice a year.....oh and no wages, retirement, they can get a hotel/meals at government per diem rate when they visit DC.
I can save all kinds of money

I'm going to try and get through the WHOLE day today without once contemplating murder. Given how furious this regime makes me on a daily basis, that'll be one heck of a feat. But I'm going to try!

***
"Meditation on inevitable death should be performed daily. Every day when one's body and mind are at peace, one should meditate upon being ripped apart by arrows, rifles, spears and swords, being carried away by surging waves, being thrown into the midst of a great fire, being struck by lightning, being shaken to death by a great earthquake, falling from thousand-foot cliffs, dying of disease or committing seppuku at the death of one's master. And every day without fail one should consider himself as dead. This is the substance of the way of the samurai."

I'm sure this is mentioned upthread, or in a previous thread, but I just want to add my two cents.
One of the headlines over at Drudge:
Morrissey: 'Gay men would never kill others'...
The actual quote is, "Homosexual men would never kill other men."
Yes he really said that.
No word on Morrissey's opinion of Jeffrey Dahmer, John Wayne Gacy, and other noted homosexual murderers.

I don't know exactly and I regret that b/c one of the genuine gifts she gave me besides speed reading was my cooking ability.
No nuts, and I think she baked semi-granulated tapioca from the old fashioned beads into a sugar cookie base and maybe lashed it at some point with vanilla extract.
It's a state of middle age I guess to realize you value most those things taken for granted that the mists of time have taken away.
Haven't had the damn things since I was 12 hadn't thought 'em in years....but your post and the idea of emotional centering...
I could smell 'em baking.

Caroline Kennedy top candidate to become new U.S. ambassador to Japan: report
Bloomberg News reported JFK's daughter could be Tokyo-bound, replacing Ambassador John Roos
JUST what Japan needs: a drunk Kennedy killing off its remaining citizens with a state-subsidized Toyota.

Apparently, yes.
I look forward to Caroline Kennedy looking at a cute little Japanese baby (amazingly they do exist) and cooing, "Kawaaaae!" instead of "Kawaiiiii!" Nothing like telling a Japanese mother her child is scary!

The Battle of the Bulge
Then you don't know the one about how all those cases of "frozen feet" arose from the failure to distribute shoe-pac snow boots? Or how sergeants gave direct orders to soak the rough-out leather uppers all the way through with shoe polish, so they'd take a garrison shine? Or how if you reported in with "trench foot" you could be court-martialed for not changing into the dry socks you didn't have, but if you called it frozen feet you might get sent to the rear?
Why were the 99th and 106th stretched so thin on the north shoulder? Doesn't look like "needs of the military" to me. It was fucked up like all war is fucked up, as Schwarzkopf used to say.
