How about a poll re folks who prefer this sorta photo v the garden pics?

Big Mike म्हणाले...

Saw this on Instapundit:

"I call on President Trump to oppose storming Area 51. No, I'm not worried about national security. I just want to see twenty-odd Democratic presidential candidates Naruto running across the Nevada desert."


If you don't get the reference, Naruto running has the characters leaning forward, with arms thrown back. It comes from Japanese animated films.

And, re polls, how about one re should Althouse stop ignoring Rapinoe?

Has she gotta become the mayor of Seattle to get a post? She's definitely hintin' about somethin' political re the home of the other UW.

Enjoy the Twitter primary update for July.

Although Twitter changed their rounding just to screw up my counts...

Or, a poll re the benefit of that hair style re a pull handle (not to actually pull) from the back, but also a nice (not too much) swish-over-the-eyes from the gal on top?

I don't mean the purple hair gal, I'm just bein' purple re that other post.

Gahrie म्हणाले...

And, re polls, how about one re should Althouse stop ignoring Rapinoe?

I vote for: "The whole world should continue to ignore Rapinoe.".

Big Mike म्हणाले...

I see that the Dems are livid that Donald Trump claimed to have been down at the site of the World Trade Center.

Except we have video proof that he certainly was

No posts yet on John Radcliffe’s nomination for DNI. He must have won Trump over with his unfair questioning of mueller. Or maybe it was the “secret society” within the FBI he uncovered. Or the fact that he lied about his experiences prosecuting terrorists.

A thing I liked about the debate was the way Marianne told them off for losing the election over a year before it happened. As it will. The electorate was fidgeting like a room full of third-graders just before the recess bell.

Britain is beginning to look like a bargain. Well, cheaper anyways. The pound is the cheapest its been in 34 years.

Houses around Boston have bidding wars. 20 buyers isn’t uncommon. 10-15% above asking is not uncommon. No contingencies.

Buyers are having to write Dear Owner letters again.

I want to sell....

Sprezzatura म्हणाले...

Thank you Big M,

I was missing Inga.

Nice to know there's still someone here to provide links that prove the opposite of what they intend.

DJT says re talking to his guys, his guys are seeing lots of bodies, and his guys have pulled out five folks.

Not to mention that showing up for a photo op, and lying two days after is way worse than lying nowadays.

DJT = POS, per BIG M.

But where else will you find neighbors w/ rare Clumbers?

Andrew म्हणाले...

I was disappointed during the Democrat debate that no one confronted Bernie. "You say this country should pay a living wage, but you don't even pay one to your own employees, you fraud, you hypocrite! Why don't you sell one of your three houses and pay your workers before getting all high and mighty on us, you ancient clown!" That would be the end of Bernie.

Scott Adams made a good point on his Periscope today. If Kamala Harris wants to win, all she has to do is attack Biden on his age. "It's time to step aside and let a new generation have a chance. If I were in my 70's, I would not want anyone to vote for me. This is too important." That would be the end of Biden.

It will be interesting to see how long Trump holds his fire before destroying the survivor.

Sprezzatura म्हणाले...

FTR,

One of my places is two blocks from a gay couple that have a Clumber.

I once asked one of the dudes if the 'b' in Clumber is silent, or not. He was blown away that I knew the breed of his dog.

Never say ya can't learn useful info here.

IMHO.

She wants to know where the money has gone. Says Trump has been talking for twenty years about govt wasting money that could rebuild infrastructure.Black Baltimore lady totally wants Trump re elected

It all turned on a dog, that may not have barked.
Or it might have, I don't know.

In any case, these particular animals seem to go with bespoke shotguns from Purdey and Sons, gameparks and gamekeepers.

Buw,

Try out 'I dunno.'

It's almost as awesome as 'anywho.'

robother म्हणाले...

"The Thing on Buttigieg's Face" should be the subject of the next Althouse poll. Was it the mark of Cain? Did its disappearance by the end of the debate signify divine forgiveness, the excorisim of some dark force? Or merely a Nixonian coverup?

buwaya म्हणाले...

Estates in Norfolk (county), England, go for about BP 40,000 an acre.
Which is quite a lot for rural land, but this is for hunting, near the royal estate at Sandringham. Which I believe has a pack of your clumbers, as proper gun-dogs.
You may need a minimum of 50 acres or so. Plus a more or less stately home.

There are a fair number of such properties for sale. You are talking of a minimum BP 3-4 million to be properly set up, and you will have to employ people.

FullMoon म्हणाले...

Black Baltimore woman fears for Trumps safety because of exposing black corruption

narciso म्हणाले...

The footage was in a German documentary as well, and theres a bit of a prophet angle, since he predicted an attack in 1999, by bin lafen

buwaya म्हणाले...

I believe a new bespoke Purdey 12-bore for use on a proper English hunting estate suitable to Clumber Spaniels will run around Bp 100,000.

Now, used Purdeys can be much cheaper, but they would not fit you, quite, and it would show.

walter म्हणाले...

Maybe Clumbers are like Subarus.
Anywho..

So the folks behind Gotham have come up with another batman prequel but this one is about Alfred's early days after he left the SAS, in the early 60s which would probably the aden emergency and he comes home to nascent civil war between right and left factions, a little like the avengers series

Churchy LaFemme: म्हणाले...

Was Alfred actually hired as a covert bodyguard then? With that background it almost sounds plausible.

Too bad they didn't take him to the movies..

Sprezzatura म्हणाले...

Buw,

Many years ago, I tried taking a so-called Australian Labradoodle to a very high-level gun-dog training school. They said NO to not pure dogs (e.g. pure lab) for their training.

Anywho, a few of my friend who hunt have insanely obedient dogs. If they told their dogs to stay in a down position as a truck ran over them, the dog would not quiver at all. This was sorta tested on a narrow logging road where my friend put his dog (that was on the edge of the road) in a down-stay (from 125 feet) while a hauling-ass unloaded tractor trailer combo blew by. Passed w/in twelve inches of the dog.

Anywho, I don't hunt. And was only interested in the training cause it makes a non-annoying dog. Ended up w/ five different normal dog schools before two and a half years old. That was almost seven years ago. Still insanely not-annoying dog. [BTW, would definitely pass the test re logging truck running over it.]

declassification begins with exculpatory evidence in the predication of the FISA warrant on Carter Page? Brady violation? exculpatory evidence was wittingly withheld from the FISC, also?

Will the media confess that they knew Joseph Mifsud's best friend Gianni Pittella campaigned for Hillary Clinton?
Mifsud was also engaging in undercover op to steer Brexit. That's why infiltrating the meeting with @BorisJohnson. This matter now has tangible, serious and urgent implications for UK national security and for British intelligence. per Occhionero

I think his original profile was royal marine, but more people know the sas, the original was closer to the nolan and Heller vision

William म्हणाले...

Marianne was right to mention that Grosse Point wouldn't have the same problems with water as Flint. There are a lot of things that cannot be mentioned though. The decline and fall of Detroit might have had something to do with Coleman Young or Kwame Kilpatrick, et al., but that's unmentionable also. It was all due to the greed of automotive executives. In their way, they're even worse than pharma execs. Not so bad as real estate developers though. Real estate developers are the worst.

"You can't be more evil than google:"


They gave it up.

Now Althouse's favorite social (but not in a socialist way) media has the official Anti-Evil department.

BTW, FTR, they don't actually consider themselves a social media company. IOW, Althouse:

Try to keep up.

It occurs to me that my time here (though I've been apostate for spans re long times (sometimes re me, sometimes re me be banned/deleted)) is older than that dog.

Anywho, I did (for a while) use "Fellow Republicans" as part of my handle. And, I have sometimes adopted the non-gay-dude version of "natch" as a catch phrase.

As I noted up-thread, there are things to learn here.

Snatch!

Marianne Williamson is now warning Dems about the " Punisher" force that Trump is about to unleash on them. IIR in the original total Revolution it took a couple of years from the Storming of the Bastille until the Directory issued the orders that started The Reign of Terror.

Its an honor simply to be nominated. I'd like to thank my parents for their unconditional love and encouragement, my family for their unwavering support, the academy for their consideration, the neighborhood Chinese joint for their outstanding sweet and sour pork and the entire nation of New Zealand for their Sauvignon Blanc and All Blacks highlight reels.

Drago म्हणाले...

We are less than 6 hours away from a very likely Bulwark faux-conservative article "The Conservative Case For Why All Lefty Policies Are Awesome And All Dem Candidates Are Super Dreamy"

Yancey Ward म्हणाले...

I just finished watching the debate about 30 minutes ago. Of course, the Drudge poll is probably still a bit flooded with rightwing voters, so I think Williamson's lead is kind of false, but she probably did as well as anyone on that stage did. The only other online poll I saw had Sanders the winner at about 40% and Buttuvwxyz at about 20%, everyone else sucking fumes. None of these people can beat Trump- none of them. I guess we shall wait for Wednesday night debate.

Yancey Ward म्हणाले...

One thing that didn't happen that I thought had to happen was this- Warren and Sanders needed to work to drive the other out of the race- they occupy lane both ideologically and geographically, but basically ignored each other. What actually happened is that someone quite a bit more moderate than both and a better fit both geographically and ideologically with New Hampshire upstaged both of them. Delaney has no shot at the nomination, but he will suck the air out of Warren and Sanders in New Hampshire.

Yancey Ward म्हणाले...

I mean, if you are from New Hampshire and want to vote for a solid New Englander, you won't want either Warren or Harris, but Delaney would be a good choice.

stevew म्हणाले...

The Democrats don't understand that with this many candidates they are playing a game of Survivor. Their opponent(s) is each other, not Trump, at this point, and they need to focus on getting the strongest one voted off. Biden, Warren, Sanders, & Harris are the targets. Get to work!

It's OK, though the secrets will start coming out today.

I just looked at a picture of last night's debate. Four of the men are wearing brown shoes with black or blue suits. Total lack of class.
