Mr and Mrs Hawkeye and the dog have retreated to Sedona (Oak Creek actually) and plan to remain here in protest of the never-ending heat in Phx. Very pleasant, 90 degrees and no humidity, with a spectacular view of the red rocks. We will return if the temperature ever goes below 100. During the day.
Mandy Patinkin of "The Princess Bride" is a Kamala Harris supporter. He's inspired me to create some nom de plume's for our illustrious Democrat candidates:
Kamala is The Barbarian Princess of San Francisco.
Those with an interest in WWII and hobby photography should go see what "War and Truth" has posted on YT about Patton's and Rommel's efforts in that field.
The narration is prolix and portentous, but the photos and comments might be of interest.
(Also see if you agree with me that what is identified as a Stug III is really a Jagdpanzer.)
Tulsi sure had an excellent interview on CNN this last week. Dana Bash appeared flustered in several spots, as Tulsi shared her message, answered questions and refuted lies without breaking a sweat.
My wife and I were in Milan Italy in '78, unable to get a room because the trade fair was going on. As we walked around the downtown before giving up, I noticed that some of the gleaming corporate HQ towers were surrounded by unpaved and in places overgrown lots.
Posters citing Kamala as the “official candidate of the Philadelphia Eagles” have been seen at transit stops across Philadelphia. They are of excellent quality and appear to be professionally done.
So let me get this straight, if a party in Germany opposes Germany's deep involvement in the war in Ukraine, they are "far-something" if on the right of the political spectrum, they are "far right" and if they are on the left of the political spectrum, they are "far left" and the only "centrists" are the people who want to pour more gasoline on the fire in Eastern Europe.
The parties of the "Traffic Light Coalition," which has been all-in on backing Zelensky in the Ukrainian civil war, got seriously spanked in this election. That's what they get for trusting Joe Biden.
Chest Rockwell mentioned a podcast with Bob Kerry. It’s very interesting. It reminded me of Sandy Berger destroying classified documents having to do with 9/11: “Sandy Berger, who was President Clinton’s top national security aide, pleaded guilty Friday to taking classified documents from the National Archives and cutting them up with scissors. Rather than the “honest mistake” he described last summer, Berger acknowledged to U.S. Magistrate Deborah Robinson that he intentionally took and deliberately destroyed three copies of the same document dealing with terror threats during the 2000 millennium celebration. The charge of unauthorized removal and retention of classified material is a misdemeanor that carries a maximum sentence of a year in prison and up to a $100,000 fine. However, under a plea agreement that Robinson must accept, Berger would serve no jail time but instead pay a $10,000 fine, surrender his security clearance for three years and cooperate with investigators. Security clearance allows access to classified government materials.” Kerry describes how difficult it is to access classified info and here Berger waltzed in takes out who knows what kind of documents in his pants, destroyed them and got away with it.
tim in vermont: You said something very puzzling on the previous Sunrise Thread and I asked you to explain it, specifically, "who was 'the man who blew up the Nordstream pipeline' whom Robert Cook 'defended to the final minute', and when was that?" Could you please answer the question either here or there?
Rumor has it that a CIA Whistleblower has documented evidence that Bide and the Smiling Kenyan had Seal Team Six murdered to cover up the cooperation with Iran to hide Osama. And the hit on Osama was a fake.
He actually did go to Afghanistan as part of a Congressional delegation a few years ago. I think I’ve seen the video you referenced and the impression I got was that he was claiming to have been there as a soldier. But there is enough wiggle room to claim that it was the congressional visit he was referring to.

The BEST OF Clay and Buck show started with a Vance interview. That's three strikes right there. Clay and Buck are 98% morons - too young still, I think - and Vance is unlistenable, probably from the same cause.
Nobody is being a prankster, which is how Rush handled it, back when he was good.
The rule of Lemnity "wouldn't it be a hoot if both Kamala and Trump don't read?"
"He’s just what you see. He’s Donald Trump. He’s what you always knew he was. He’s a guy who’s never read a book about anything. He’s maybe watched a show about it. He heard Sean Hannity talk about it for ten minutes. He got his talking points and he’s going to roll with that. Vivek Ramaswamy told him about this central bank digital currency thing. And he told him it’s no good. And then he went out and said it’s no good. And it got big cheers. So okay, that’s in now because that gets cheers. It’s that shallow. To actually drain the swamp, what are you talking about here? You’re talking about rolling back the biggest honeypot in the history of the world. All right? That might take some book reading." Dave Smith
“You’re talking about rolling back the biggest honeypot in the history of the world. All right? That might take some book reading” Doesn’t that describe all the elites in our government? Isn’t there a whole lot of book reading going on in that group? Maybe what we need is a guy, who when he gets shot, his reaction is to wave his fist in the air and shout, “Fight! Fight! Fight.”
I doubt that even 1% of the elected and unelected elites in DC and state capitols read a book a year.
OK, 2%.
And I'm old enough to recall the reading contest between Bush the Lesser and Rove--even assuming they read all they claimed, it didn't keep them from screwing the pooch in the GME.
This clip got posted at Legal Insurrection, too. It appears the immediately prior remarks which make clear he was talking about a Congressional trip were edited out.
I recall another set of remarks that were highlighted shortly after his selection was announced that were highly suggestive, however. I think it was the one where people claimed he said Bagram was in Iraq or something to that effect but what he did was segue between talking about how being 'overseas' (i.e. deployed in Italy) affected his daughter and then about attending a fallen warrior commemoration without making clear that the subjects were separated by several years, thousands of miles, and he had left the military by the time the second happened.
"Maybe what we need is a guy, who when he gets shot, his reaction is to wave his fist in the air and shout, “Fight! Fight! Fight.”
We had that guy 4 years ago- we ran out of toilet paper, we got the mail a month late, and lots of people died. And he told us to "fight, fight ,fight and drink bleach".
So you don’t think he’s really that dumb? That’s a relief. Because anyone who fell for that nonsense probably has a tough time navigating through life.
Funny how Progressives who used to hate war and Vietnam, now LOVE war and Vietnam, yet STILL picked fumbling bumbling Joe Biden who loves war even more than they do even though HE himself had a deferment. Does the beach bother Joe's asthma, or is only work that does??

Well let's see: Never filed for bankruptcy, much less six. Never paid off a porn star i cheated on my pregnant wife with. Never been convicted of a crime much less 34 felonies. Never been convicted of fraud. Never stood in the middle of Arlington cemetery giving the thumbs up sign with a shit eating grin on my face.

Mandy Patinkin of "The Princess Bride" is a Kamala Harris supporter. He's inspired me to create some nom de plume's for our illustrious Democrat candidates:
Kamala is The Barbarian Princess of San Francisco.
Tim Walz is The Barbarian Duke of Minnesota.
That word you are using doesnt mean what you think it does
Walz even looks like vizzini

I'm 20 miles south of you and it is too damn hot here for me. Phoenix is unthinkable.
Agreed. It appears to be a Jagdpanzer IV
Mincing Machiavellian of Minnesota
I delivered packages to a street called Executive Drive. It was literally a dirt road.
Ah, the filtered light!
I'll go with that. Thanks.

The Eagles have disavowed the posters and are taking action to have them removed.
Pretty good podcast with Bob Kerry, former Nebraska governor and senator. I hadn't thought of him in a long time. A Democrat of the classical mold.
So let me get this straight, if a party in Germany opposes Germany's deep involvement in the war in Ukraine, they are "far-something" if on the right of the political spectrum, they are "far right" and if they are on the left of the political spectrum, they are "far left" and the only "centrists" are the people who want to pour more gasoline on the fire in Eastern Europe.

Maybe... You could probably add "far right" if they shun "green energy" that keeps Germany dependent on Russian oil and gas.
Dana Bash is a special kind of evil.
A video has surfaced of Walz specifically saying he was in Afghanistan. No grammatical errors here. Walz is scum.

Hmmm?
I'm 17 miles south and I'm tired of the heat this summer. News reports that this was the hottest summer on record for Phoenix.
New Kamala Harris nickname: ?Que mala?
Mr and Mrs Hawkeye and the dog have retreated to Sedona (Oak Creek actually)
My wife just returned from six days in Sedona. First time.
She's hooked.
Althouse said this morning: "I don't consider walking in the woods a hobby. Or reading."
A sheep's clothing question for Kamala Harris: What are you reading?
Wouldn't it be a hoot if both Kamala and Trump don't read?
A beginning for a #Kamala-is-like-Trump tag. The horror 🫣

Um no, the problem is the ISI was Bin Laden's protection racket,
oh we figured that nick a long time ago
That's utter bullshit.
Via X With video: “Yet another church in France is in flames.
This one is from 1854 and survived two world wars.”
Further, the bus shelters where the posters were found are owned by the City of Philadelphia.
Patinkin is a ham sandwich Democrat- whoever they throw out there will be the new messiah…

Mutaman with usual bullshit.
Mutaman cannot be trusted

Well how about that, Rocco! 😄
Between Bash and NBC’s Welker, I don’t know which one is worse.
Hey, that was mine that I used for her here until some LLR whined about it.
But they love women, so they’ve got that going for them.
“Mutaman cannot be trusted.”
Not even as far as one can toss the 98 pound maroon.

" Maybe what we need is a guy, who when he gets shot, his reaction is to wave his fist in the air and shout, “Fight! Fight! Fight.”"
Trump has always been ready to “Fight! Fight! Fight.”. Except when it came to Viet Nam.
Nitpick: it should be ¡Qué mala!
Yeah, Trump didn't man up like Biden did.

Maybe you should shoot him again. That'll show us what's what.
