Corey Booker/T-Bone is Spartacus.
Elizabeth Warren is a walkin' talkin' Native American.
And Chuck is a LLR........
I watched some more of the Kavanaugh hearings today. Just couldn't bring myself to blog about it. Cory Booker is Spartacus or something. No one paid much attention. Fox News (where I'd set up my recording) switched away to speculate pointlessly, endlessly about who the anonymous NYT op-edder might be. Meanwhile, it was a beautiful sunny cool day here in Madison, Wisconsin, after a very rainy yesterday, and I was out and about.
Drudge: Twitter bans Alex Jones for life
I wager Twitter’s life is shorter.
Just finished reading "The Electric Kool Aid Acid Test" Rethinking much about the generation that preceded mine.
Kim Strassel makes the observation that Senate Dems are facing a Tea Party like revolt in their own party so intensify their antics to please the mob.
Booker is doing what he can to validate the " Bell Curve" on black IQ.
Requiescat in pace, Burt Reynolds.
May your heaven include many Loni Andersons.
Burt Reynolds gone. I Feel old
Iran seems to be trying to start a new civil war in Iraq.
Response to US pressure and resulting domestic unrest I think.
Pressure for pressure, where it can exert it.
"I watched some more of the Kavanaugh hearings today. Just couldn't bring myself to blog about it."
Fair enough.
But on the GOP side I counted at least four reasonably knowledgeable, rational members: Cruz, Sasse, Lee, and Cornyn. Maybe add Grassley and Hatch as pretty rational operators.
Is there anyone on the Dem side who comes close? Anyone you, a law professor, would respect even a little bit? They all struck me as ignorant hacks. I am a partisan, of course, but the contrast with the GOP seems striking just in terms of quality.
No need to reply -- I think I know the answer. But part of the point is that, at a time when Trump is derided at every turn, the opposition just seems at least as bad. And worse in a way: Trump is an amateur politician but most of the Dems on the committee went to law school. Even for cynics, their deep ignorance and utter bad faith is shocking.
If Albert Einstein applied for a professorship at UCLA today, would he be hired? The answer is not clear. Starting this fall, all faculty applicants to UCLA must document their contributions to “equity, diversity and inclusion.” Would Einstein’s presentation of scholarly accomplishments reflect his contributions to equality, diversity and inclusion? Unlikely. Would his research show, in the words of the evaluation template, the “potential to understand the barriers facing women and racial/ethnic minorities?” Also unlikely. Would he have participated in “service that applies up-to-date knowledge to problems, issues and concerns of groups historically underrepresented in higher education?” Sadly, he may have been focusing on the theory of general relativity instead.
Sebastian: "Is there anyone on the Dem side who comes close?"
No.
And that's gotta be killin' our very own self-described smear merchant Chuck! LOL
THIS is the crew he's depending on to remove Trump?! THIS is the crew?!
What a sad sad fate it is that has befallen our LLR's!
May your heaven include many Loni Andersons.
In one movie I laughed so hard when Sally Fields gave in to him and gave him some "Pity Pussy".
"If Albert Einstein applied for a professorship at UCLA today"
What have I been saying about the UC system?
There you go.
Sad loss (Re: Burt Reynolds). Played Quint Asper on Gunsmoke. Before that, played football for Florida State. My favorite movie was Deliverance. Watched it a few weeks ago. A bit tougher to watch in my old age.
If you want to buy it, or any other book, I recommend using Amazon, going in through The Althouse Portal.
So you decided to have us support Jeff Bezos despite Bernie Sanders?
Agreed. The Dems were painful to watch. I would not mind an opposition party asking difficult but legitimate questions to a Supreme Court nominee. But this was beyond farcical. Booker was especially obnoxious. Grandstanding as Spartacus and begging the Senate to punish him? Wow, that was even worse than "tears of rage!"
So T-Bone Booker put his neck on the line to release documents that were cleared for release. What an idiot.
I just finished re-reading Shattered.
Did any write an equivalent about from the Trump campaign? I tried Roger Stone's book and that ain't it.
Spart-A-Cus!
Spart-A-Cus!

Oops!

Thanks for entertaining me Democrats. You guys are priceless.
Burt did a lot for moustaches.
He was kind of pitiful in Boogie Nights.
Equivalent BOOK
Harris repeated her “can you guess who I’m thinking about?” routine. At least she didn’t drag it out so long tonight. I still think the prize goes to Sheldon Whitehouse's “all these 5-4 decisions proof the “Robert’s Five” are getting secret instructions from The Federalist Society” “reasoning”.
Wondering about the response
What if NYT anon op-ed and Sir Racist had switched publishers?
Op-ed could be satire and we are viewing the frame and not the picture??!!
Speaking of Ed McBain and Amazon, I had heard good things about the 87th Precinct Mysteries (my favorite genre) and noticed after buying my Kindle, that most of those 87th Precinct books were in their Kindle Unlimited deal ($10/month for older or lesser known books). Since there were about fifty 87th Precinct novels, I made out like a bandit.
Another interesting thing about "Ed McBain" is that it is a nom de plume for Evan Hunter who is probably best known for The Blackboard Jungle, but is remembered by me for one of the best (I hate to call it a "coming of age" movie as that seems to cheapen it) movies of 1969, Last Summer. It starred Richard Thomas, Bruce Davison, Barbara Hershey and a sparkling performance by a young woman named Catherine Burns who received an Oscar nomination as Best Actress in a Supporting Role. She did one more movie and some TV roles and then dropped off the face of the earth (as far as acting goes).
There was also an important scene with Barbara Hershey and an injured seagull. When she became a hippie she changed her name to Barbara Seagull and wrecked her career for years.
Yesterday the Florida commission that is investigating the mass shooting by Nikolas Cruz inside Marjory Stoneman Douglas high school was meeting. If Guttenberg truly loved his daughter Jamie, he should have been there instead of hundreds of miles away in Washington, DC, grandstanding at the Kavanaugh hearing.
Here is a report on the commission findings so far. Not only did Scot Peterson fail to go into the building to stop Cruz, he actively impeded the efforts of other police units to stop Cruz. Yet he makes $8700 per month in pension.
(Warning. The video depicting Cruz walking unimpeded through the building can be hard to view.)
One key finding: "During the shootings, gunman Nikolas Cruz reloaded five times, which commission members said meant there were opportunities to stop him if Peterson had done his job."
Kim Strassel makes the observation that Senate Dems are facing a Tea Party like revolt in their own party so intensify their antics to please the mob.
@rehajm, the contrast with the Republican response to the actual Tea Party could not be more stark.
Some pranksters in gladiator costumes should follow Booker around and shout "I am Spartacus!"
Trump in Montana is on fire. No teleprompter, as usual.
Burt Reynolds was my favorite movie actor from when I was age 5-12. Loved Smokey and the Bandit and the Cannonball run movies. When I was in college, Bob Costas interviewed Burt for two nights on his show. He was a great interview. I can see why Johnny Carson let Burt guest host the Tonight Show in the 1970s. He was very interesting in what I thought (and think) is a pretty dull genre. He was great at telling a story and had good introspection and humor about himself.
Einstein would be smart enough to appreciate that diversity denies individual dignity (e.g. Jew privilege), functions through selective exclusion (i.e. Pro-Choice), and is based on color judgments including racism, sexism, etc.
Big Mike, the video doesn't play. I don't know if it has been disabled.
I sampled some of the Kavanaugh hearings. He seems extremely knowledgeable about the things a Supreme Court Justice should be knowledgeable about. He looks sane, balanced, and pleasant. I don't see what the fuss is all about. He does not represent an existential threat to women and/or our system of government.
Big Mike: "@rehajm, the contrast with the Republican response to the actual Tea Party could not be more stark."
Indeed. Mr After-The-Fact-Civility McCain actually colluded with the partisan dem hacks at the IRS to target the Tea Party.
And the LLR's cheered this action.
"I don't see what the fuss is all about."
He was nominated by a Republican and he tends to follow the Constitution.
People are going to die because of that.

Feinstein, maybe. Some days, at least. Maybe most days. Not all days, for sure.
That’s it. The Senate Judiciary Committee has been home to the Democrats’ most devoted gangsters for all of my adulthood.
And Judiciary brings out the worst in them, and the worst among the Dems’ special interest backers.
Kennedy. Biden. Metzenbaum. Cranston. Durbin. Schumer. Franken. And now, Booker and Harris.
In the distant past, it wasn’t so bad. There were Democrats like Dennis DeConcini, Howell Heflin and some others. Fritz Hollings of South Carolina and David Boren of Oklahoma both voted FOR the nomination of Judge Robert Bork to the Supreme Court.
Talking about the BBC & bias a few posts down..
Tonight listening to the World Service where they had two ethicists debate whether "anonymous" did the right thing. One was (loudly to the point of unhingedness) all "Hell Yes he did the right thing!". The other was all "in normal times no, but under Trump, of course".
Feinstein, maybe. Some days, at least. Maybe most days. Not all days, for sure.
Does that include her Chinese spy driver ? The one who represented her at meetings ?
Madness:
Transgender person accused of rape is remanded into female prison and sexually assaults inmates within days
The prison service has apologised after a transgender inmate, charged with raping a woman, sexually assaulted four fellow inmates just days after being remanded into an all female jail.

LOL
Diane Feinstein. Releaser of Fusion GPS dem hack and ally of LLR's everywhere Glenn Simpson's testimony from a closed session to allow all the little conspirators to reconfigure their own testimony.
That's no doubt one of her better days for Chuck.
Oops, sorry for the line spacing!
Burt Reynolds best films were filmed in Georgia. Deliverance, Smokey and the Bandit, and several others. He started the filming industry in Georgia and it flourishes today.
Loved Burt Reynlolds in the 70s. He was big back then. Car movies. Bootleggin'. Sally Field. Cannonball Run.
RIP, Burt.
traditionalguy: "Burt Reynolds best films were filmed in Georgia. Deliverance, Smokey and the Bandit, and several others. He started the filming industry in Georgia and it flourishes today."
Well, yeah.
Who would have bought the Deliverance story line in, say, Connecticut?
Squeal like a pig and Pepperidge Farm Remembers.....
Booker is,like Eddie Murphy in the distinguished gentleman, a smooth conman, of course he has many enablers.
Next time Booker drives to Hawaii, he should rent the world's longest bus and take some Democrats with him.
The manslaughter suspect, plagiarist, two future Keating 5 participants, decincini and cranston, one old lone read, the former 442nd veteran with a #metoo problem, did i leave anyone out?

Christopher Steele Again Eludes His Republican Pursuers
[Roadrunner always gets away from the bad Coyote.]
Senator Chuck Grassley of Iowa had sought the former British spy’s deposition in a civil suit related to his Trump-Russia dossier, but a judge in Florida ruled Grassley would have to follow normal court procedures to get Steele’s testimony.
"...Grassley’s efforts, however, have been frustrated: Under the terms of the protective order that sealed the deposition in the first place, Gubarev’s lawyers could not hand over its contents unilaterally. And on Wednesday, a magistrate judge in the Southern District of Florida declined to require the deposition’s production to the Senate Judiciary Committee and the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, which had also expressed interest in obtaining a copy of Steele’s deposition."
'...“The Court will not issue an Order requiring the production of the depositions of Mr. Steele and Mr. Kramer,” wrote Magistrate Judge John J. O’Sullivan. He was referring to David Kramer, a former confidant of Senator John McCain who met with Steele in 2016 to discuss the dossier’s allegations and was deposed as part of the same lawsuit earlier this year.'
[But the Coyotes have recourse]:
'O’Sullivan ruled that both committees would have to move forward in formal channels and “advise the court why it would be appropriate to require the production of these depositions.'
[Not hard to do.]
https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2018/09/christopher-steele-again-eludes-his-republican-pursuers/569515/
The article does not mention that the consent of the British court is also required.
Washington Examiner:
"David Kramer, a former State Department official and associate of Sen. John McCain, used his Fifth Amendment right to avoid testifying before the House Intelligence Committee about the Trump dossier’s Russian sources, according to a new report.
In December, Kramer was interviewed by the committee and signaled he had details concerning sources used in the dossier. He was then served a subpoena.
However, Kramer exerted his Fifth Amendment rights and did not meet with the committee, a law enforcement source told Fox News."

I wonder if McCain approved.

"Weighty Ghost" is a good little song by Wintersleep - that & "Amerika" - I don't know but I think it is something the drummer is doing.
I played the Psych. Furs a little growing up and "The Ghost in You" wasn't too bad. "Don't you go, it makes no sense..." well that's all teenage angst I guess.
No other songs with ghosts come readily to mind

Song lyrics by Robbie Williams (1974 - )
-----
Something Stupid
I know I stand in line
Until you think you have the time
To spend an evening with me.
And if we go someplace to dance,
I know that there's a chance
You won't be leaving with me.
Then afterwards we drop
Into a quiet little place
And have a drink or two.
And then I go and spoil it all
By saying something stupid
Like, "I love you."
I can see it in your eyes:
You still despise the same old lies
You heard the night before.
And though it's just a line to you,
For me it's true and never seemed
So right before.
I practice every day
To find some clever lines to say
To make the meaning come true.
But then I think I'll wait
Until the evening gets late
And I'm alone with you.
The time is right;
Your perfume fills my head;
The stars get red,
And, oh, the night's so blue,
And then I go and spoil it all
By saying something stupid
Like, "I love you."

Poor guy can't get arrested..
My wife I just came home from the movie theater after watching "Crazy, Rich Asians".
We both loved this movie, which is amazing.
The movie is about a Chinese-American woman (born in the USA) who teaches economics at a university. She falls in love with a student from Singapore. He invites her to travel with him to Singapore to attend his brother's wedding and to meet his family.
In Singapore, she is surprised to learn that his family is fabulously wealthy and that his relatives and friends are wonderfully nice.
During the first two-thirds of the movie, there is very little story. There is just the amazement of seeing this lifestyle of Asia's richest people in Singapore.
In the movie's final third, a melodramatic conflict develops with his rich mother. And then there is a happy ending.
Go watch this movie. It's amazing and fun.
Unknown - Laura Ingraham is a very intelligent person. Don't underestimate her.
Spartacus was, whether you admit it or not, a fictitious character, played in a Stanley Kubrick movie by Kirk Douglas, who (and I guarantee you Laura Ingraham knows this) is currently best known for ... allegedly raping at least one co-star. Now whether that is fair or not, I don't know, but I guarantee you that Laura Ingraham knows it. She understands rhetoric.
Spartacus was also a real life citizen of Rome who was reduced to slavery and then led a revolt, as described in various sources. If you live near a university town, you can drive to the local university library and look at the two or three books, in the section devoted to Latin literature, where the primary historical sources are (in case you did not know, the history section of a university library does not have a complete collection of, for example, Latin historians. The original historians are grouped with the Latin writers ... if you want to know more, check out the Loeb Library versions of the classical sources).
In America today, when people talk about Spartacus, they are talking about the movie Spartacus, not the one about whom we read several facts, most of them disputed, in the original Latin language sources.
I want to write a movie script about a crazy, filthy rich guy who is me.
the original Latin sources are shelved under PA, classical studies, not DE, history of Greece and Rome.
I bet you Laura Ingraham knows that. I don't always agree with her but she is very knowledgeable.
this is classic Ann, tuning out when things get complicated. Spartacus or something, how tedious. When Ann gets nervous she pretends not to have time to be bothered. Come on Ann.
Here's a sample:

"Trump in Montana is on fire. No teleprompter, as usual."
It was obligatory for us. Thought it was supposed to be in Bozeman, but was in Billings, instead. What is it with B cities up here? Probably better this way - Bozeman, with all of its money and weekend ranchers from the two coasts is probably one of the worst venues here for Trump. I think that with Tester it is personal with Trump, after Tester lied and defamed Trump's White House physician nominated to run the VA. Tester and his out of state backers have spent millionssice the first of the year to flood the airways, and now I am seeing his ads promoted on Google. The surprising thing is that he isn't 20 points ahead, and instead is a close race. Pretty sure that there are few republicans, and not that many independents who watched the rally and expect to still vote for Tester, who voted for Obamacare and sanctuary cities, and against tax cuts, building the wall, and Justice Gorsuch.
True, Howard fast boom and film painted it like an allegory of Marxist revolt
In that sense it was like the failed revolt of 1905, it led to the triumvirate which ultimately ended the republic.

FullMoon, there are two important things happening, both of which Ann regards as a joke, but you may find interesting. The first is a matter of constitutional law: that the president is addled, incapable of normal intellectual processes for a man his age. Anyone can see, and the devastating reporting has reinforced, that Trump is isolated, and has no real friends and no political convictions beyond greed and cruelty. The other important thing, which people will refuse to credit until the bitter end, is that the president is very likely the victim of a blackmail plot run by the Kremlin, and was elected and has governed as the witting agent of the Russian state, which owns him. When that turns out to be true, will you find that interesting? And if you do, what can be done?
Where did this Pickering idiot come from?
He lives in a fantasy world.
"You, you have worn out your welcome at Bushwood sir!
Pickering is describing himself.
Sad.
Yeah, they got Trump now, don't they, Pickering. Finally got him.
Sheesh.
Except he is the innocent victim of a blackmail plot run by two seven-year old girls that he tried to flash.
I say she'd possession per NFL and NCAA rules.
What say you?
https://www.nationalreview.com/2018/09/krissy-noble-self-defense-miscarriage-justice/
Rule 5.
So he's an addled incompetent highly effective foreign agent..
In Montana trump's Gianforte comment shows again he's a low intelligence thug at bottom.
But, hey, there are folks here impatient for when he's going to break out his gun on 5th Avenue.
Hey Pickering, it was Trump who took the strawberries, wasn't it?
This weird. Announced a few says ago that Pres Obama going to orange county to campaign for House seats this weekend. Details to follow.
Tonight they announce Saturday he's attending an invitation only rally with various house candidates in a venue that fits 750.
How does such a small event with hand picked attendees drum up support for contests?
What I find interesting about Pickering is his psychological projection. It was, of course, Trump's opponent who was susceptible to Russian AND Chinese blackmail. She had sold her "reset" and 1/5 of our uranium to the Rusians for cash for the family foundation/slush fund, and had, along with her husband, been illegally taking Chinese money for a quarter of a century. Moreover, there is decent evidence that the Chinese had hacked her illegal private email server, and installed a virus that apparently forwarded every email received on the server back to them, from before she was sworn in as Secretary of State up through the time that she left office. Let that sink in for a minute - every email that she sent or received as Secretary of State was apparently forwarded to the Chinese in real time. It didn't matter if it was about yoga lessons, was secret, top secret, or even code word level, they received it in real time. When she was sent potential drone target information for her approval by the CIA, they received it in real time, and very likely the Chinese sent it to the Pakistanis on occasion when the drone strike was In their country. Maybe the biggest breach of classified information in recent years, all because, in her legendary paranoia, she didn't want to be accountable to the Vast Rightwing Conspiracy through the inevitable FOIA requests. Contrast that quantity of blackmail material to what they have corroborated for Trump - which is essentially nothing.
"was elected and has governed as the witting agent of the Russian state, which owns him. "
Yes!! It is so obvious by Trump's policies that Putin is pulling the puppet strings!! How can people not see that?
In the distant past, it wasn’t so bad. There were Democrats like Dennis DeConcini, Howell Heflin and some others. Fritz Hollings of South Carolina and David Boren of Oklahoma both voted FOR the nomination of Judge Robert Bork to the Supreme Court.
You seem extraordinarily well informed and laudatory towards a lot of Democrats essentially forgotten to the vast middle.
I can't think of a single Republican except McCain that you ever had anywhere...I mean ANY nice things to say about.
I miss Montana. Sitting in The Bank Bar with a burger and a black ghost passing out winnings from dice a day.
John Pickering,
Prove anything you have to say. Otherwise it is mere character assassination and that makes you a tool and a partisan hack. You are on the same level as the Obama Birthers: assertions without evidence.
"Is there anyone on the Dem side who comes close? Anyone you, a law professor, would respect even a little bit?"

Do people read books, still? Paper books? I wonder what the demographics are.
"Requiescat in pace, Burt Reynolds.

Nope...Sally Fields!
Obama who lied about taking public financing, fired an IG who dared investigate him, who spied on journalists and Congress will receive an ethics in government award.
Well. I guess we know how much value to give that award.
"Do people read books, still? Paper books?"
I do. Not only do I prefer it to reading on an electronic device, I sort of fetishize books as objects. I'll often pull a book I've read off the bookshelf and just hold it, flip through it's pages, then put it back.

Sure people read books, but the average age is probably going up every day.

"Nope...Sally Field"
Field always struck me as a PITA.
Dinah Shore had a lot more talent and less crazy than Loni or Sally.
I listen to books because I have found I do not have the time to sit down and read (and I retain more information I listen to than read). But I get your point about books as objects, Cook. I'm thinking of buying this just to have around.
Anyone can see, and the devastating reporting has reinforced, that Trump is isolated, and has no real friends and no political convictions beyond greed and cruelty.
Factual wrong. There is no reporting. Reporting is a recitation of facts. No reporting has offered any facts. Just third or fourth hand accounts. When a person is named. Like General Kelly, he immediately denounces the story as a fabrication. Just like you, massive coordinated lies with only one goal. To drive the Elected President's poll numbers low enough to allow Republicans in congress to turn on the President.
This is necessary because the President is doing a great job, and there is no constitutional path to get President Trump out of the Oval Office.
So if you have a single named source for your lies it's way past time for you to name names.
(announced yesterday thatbudget bills for individual sectors have moved through congress. First time in decades that actual budget process has been used. This is due to President Trump)
I agree with Cook twice, Sally Fields and paper books, red letter day.
How does such a small event with hand picked attendees drum up support for contests?

You can't use the term "coon" anywhere close to the dogs. I was gonna say, "in the Monkey Jungle" as there is one here in South Florida, but thought some might get the vapors.
Burt was an icon here in his adopted hometown of Jupiter, Florida. The locals have loved him for decades. Perry Como was the love prior to that and Broadway Joe shows up at local stores, movie theaters and such, and is also polite and signs things if you ask him. Burt had his dinner theater here and was partners in a local upscale restaurant, Backstage. Not to be confused with his investments in Po' Folks which gobbled up quite a bit of his movie money. He had a museum of showbiz artifacts and a petting zoo at his ranch. Last night, at the waterway park named in his honor, there was a candlelit moment of silence. He died at the Jupiter Medical Center. We will miss him. I am going to watch The Last Movie Star tonight.
Robert Cook: Correction: Sally Field!
Oh, Robert. The original comment referred to "many Loni Andersons", as in plural. Sally Fields, in the plural, was just fine. And you ruined it by "correcting" it.
Add on to Burt comment: He also filmed many of the scenes of Smokey II and his series BL Stryker here in town.
What I find interesting about Pickering is his psychological projection.
I have thought all along that he was a bot spouting DNC talking points.
Not a bad story but probably the weakest of the '57th Precinct' series.
