Organization Man

Mr. Art du Deal wakes up to the news that running for President is not a weekend-only effort for dilettantes.

Years back I thought that Al Gore's inability to retain a campaign chairman might serve as a clue to how nimbly he would run the White House. Then again, as I recall Bush 43 kept together virtually the same well-oiled machine for his Texas gubernatorial runs and two White House efforts, and how well did that work?

I dunno Tom; this is mostly a small bribe to GOPe by hiring some of their 'pros' and a big demotion for the lying SOS Toady Cory L.

Because buses sometime just spontaneously explode, apparently.

Trump is loyal, very loyal, to C. Lew. How much loyalty has Trump shown C. Lew? According to C. Lew “More than I could possibly fathom.”

C. Lew is grateful, very grateful, for the much diminished role as a body man and scheduler, thanks to Trump's loyalty. Because like Trump said "He wasn’t quite as effective for the past couple of months.”

Trump is smart, very smart, to be bringing in the likes of Rick Wiley. How smart? He's bringing in the guy who managed to clear Walker from the field by running his campaign into the ground long before any votes were even cast, helping Trump become the front runner.

[NK]

In truth, I probably would have done the same thing with the lying Toady. Firing him gives a victory to the Legacy Media, so don't give the bastards the satisfaction. The guy lied to the principal, so he is OUT of the circle of trust; Trump seems to have done that.

[Porchlight]

I think that's probably about right, NK. Whatever Trump does with C. Lew within the organization is his own business and I'm sure C. Lew is on the outs at least somewhat. Fine.

BUT he keeps his job and Trump once again demonstrates that he is not a tomato can afraid of his own shadow.

People appreciate a loyal boss. He's saying to voters: I'm not going to throw you under the bus, either.

This is why I like where USA politics is heading: a full on socialist can't win, but a full on conservative like Cruz (or Daniels, or Perry) can:

[The Wolf Who Cried Boy]

Climate Sharia-ist Al Gore during the recount, NYT:

"This controversy in the year 2000, as difficult as it might seem to us, is nothing compared to the election of 1800, where Thomas Jefferson finally prevailed after 36 ballots in the Congress, if my history serves me correctly.... Jefferson's healing speech in March of 1801 is one of the most notable in the history of the presidency: "We are all Republicans. We are all Federalists."...

I have, publicly and privately, urged my supporters to show restraint in word and deed, not only in my speeches but also in numerous conference calls and private conversations. I have urged no one associated with my cause to ever charge that the other side is trying to steal the election or take the result away in an unethical way. I think such language is damaging to our republic..."

Blonde Obama: I wuz robbed! You're crooked! You were bribed! The system is rigged! It's a disgrace! It's a phony deal! You're corrupt! Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!!!!

Mr. Sore/Loserman was more of a patriotic grown-up than Mr.Trumpertantrum.

Wow.

[Threadkiller]

C. Lew would be benched by me as well.

The charlatans Fields, Shapiro, The Fruitcake, and the wimp boyfriend managed to accomplish one thing. C. Lew will be asked about his triumph over their deceitful actions in all of his post-victory pressers.

Pull him out of the limelight?

A wise move by Trump once again.

[Thomas Collins]

Trump's guerrilla campaign, while quite an achievement, wasn't going to take Trump to 50% plus one. Trump is now adjusting to that reality. I view the reorganization as a plus for Trump as a potential leader.

As far as C. Lew goes, how many Duke and Duke consultants could have run a guerrilla campaign as well as C. Lew did. Not many if any.

[jimmyk]

where USA politics is heading

The problem is the shifting goalposts. As I think Iggy has pointed out, a "full on conservative" today has roughly the politics of JFK. So where the USA is heading is more like moving toward the back of the boat as the boat heads toward the waterfalls.

[Captain Hate]

Biden steps in it again.

Isn't it nice how the "opposition party" is more insulting to Trump or Cruz than this national embarrassment? Going hard after this buffoon is a low risk matter because he's too ignorant to not fire back with something even more ludicrous. Maybe the Uniparty has declared a cease fire without anybody noticing.

The Dems advocate unilateral disarmament and unconditional surrender against foreign enemies, and unrestricted warfare against domestic political opponents.

The GOPe advocates unilateral disarmament and unconditional surrender against the Dems, and unrestricted warfare against conservative candidates and voters.

The conservatives advocate unrestricted warfare against the Dems and against foreign enemies, and nobody listens to them.

[NK]

jimmyk-- crashing over the OPM Famine falls is the only thing that ends socialism. That's a given. The $64 question is whether THE CONSEQUENCES of OPM Famine and going over the falls are less dire in the USA than in Brazil, Argentina, Venezuela Japan and EuTopia. For a host of reasons I think they will be, so we emerge from Socialism and return to fiscal sanity by elections without gunfire... and there will be gunfire in Caracas, Rio, and Paris before they settle affairs there. My expectation we do it the USA by making the Dems a minority party for a generation.

There should be no surprises during the Maine GOP convention this week-end in Bangor. Ted Cruz won the caucus,so he will be apportioned 12 delegates,Trump nine and Kasich two. Dr. Carson will be the keynote speaker Friday night. Carly Fiorina will speak on behalf of Cruz on Saturday.
Howie Carr will be broadcasting his radio show from the convention on Friday afternoon.

(beware of autostart video)

Austin-based Whole Foods Market said it is taking legal action against an Austin man who claims he purchased a cake from the retailer that included a slur against gay people.

Whole Foods also released its security footage video from its North Lamar Boulevard flagship store that it says contradicts the man’s claims.

Whole Foods on Tuesday said it has investigated and said the man, Jordan Brown, made fraudulent claims and that the company would take legal action.

I can't see much in the video, but if Whole Foods is fighting and counter-suing, rather than knuckling under and apologizing, they must be pretty confident.

As an antidote to my pro Cruz link yesterday, here's conventional wisdom from the GOPe:

http://theweek.com/articles/619241/conservatives-shouldnt-kid-themselves-about-ted-cruz

Compared to Trump, Cruz may look like a normal Republican, sure. But the mainstream of the party and the big wallets of the donor class are never going to support Cruz in the same way that they've supported Mitt Romney, John McCain, and George W. Bush before. Yes, they may come around to endorsing him. Some elected officials may even campaign for him, but if Cruz is the nominee, they're going to be thinking about how to save their own seats and the year 2020.

Same as it ever was. I despise the political class in this country with the heat of a thousand supernovae.

From a Republican perspective, the question is whether the cramdown favored by Ryan is a better option than the “let it burn” stand favored by Rep. John Fleming (R-Louisiana). In a Daily Signal piece last Friday, he warned that a debt restructuring for Puerto Rico will only pave the way for a similar debt default by irresponsible governments on the mainland.

Fleming’s take is very simple, very understandable, philosophically right, and probably the one Democrats are drooling over the prospect of the GOP adopting in an election year. Already, Hillary Clinton has called for more federal dollars to go to Puerto Rico through Medicare and Medicaid, supposedly to address inequities in funding for the island. No sooner does the GOP vote down a debt restructuring for Puerto Rico than her campaign, and the entire Democratic Party, will crank up the identity politics engine and call conservatives “racists” for failing to help Puerto Rico — as they promise to ride to the rescue with a full bailout.

Of course the Ds are drooling over this.

[NK]

No, it's based on his Secret Service detail agent from his/Caroline's days on Scorpios with Jackie/Onasis (the agent married my 1st cousin) in the 60s, his NY DA Office boss who was a law school friend of mine, who also represented George Magazine after he and Jr left the DA's office, and a friend in town who lived down the hall from Jr at Phillips Andover and was soccer captain when Jr was JV. They all knew Jr well and for several years each but never met each other, and they all say he was a sweet and decent guy, and they never heard a bad thing from anyone else. The last coupe of years of his life he basically cared for his mentally ill wife, as well as running a magazine and being JFK Jr. Sounds impossible, but apparently it's true.

[NK]

Let it burn-- is good politics and good policy. Enact a bankruptcy provision for 'commonwealths' and let a bankruptcy judge sort it all out. PR is no different than Detroit, Harrisburg and Stockton.

Okay, I did a quick Nexis search. He "met with" small businesspeople as in he did a dog and pony show with one or two, "moderated" by our favorite Soledad.

Journalist Soledad O'Brien now joins the president on stage - she's going to moderate a discussion with businesspeople and Obama. He said a moment ago that he wants to hear from the Cuban people - who'll now get their chance to ask him questions, too.

A barber who owns a small business, nicknamed Pepito (didn't catch his last name), says he wants to share his personal vision. He talks about how in recent years barbershops like his own have shifted from state-ownership to private. But he's got good things to say about the Cuban government, too.

"I am convinced that social benefits make economic benefits even greater," he says. "In the end we all win."

Obama starts off with a little sympathy: "My barber is very important to me. Michelle's hairdresser - if she had to choose between her hairdresser and me, I don't know."

He comments a little on Pepito's idea of business working hand in hand with government and society, to the mutual benefit of all.

"A barbershop, the beauty salon, that's often the center of a neighborhood," Obama says, "so congratulations on not only starting your business but seeing it as a social enterprise."

"There was an interesting conversation that I had with President Castro around this issue," he continues, regarding the government reforms to allow more open business. "He started to point out as people start to get their own income, owning their own property, their own business, the question starts to come up" about paying taxes.

Castro noted, Obama says, that "nobody likes paying taxes, especially if they're not used to paying taxes. And I assured him that's a universal trait."

He links this back to the new organizations meant to foster business under the new rules of Cuba's centralized economy: "That gives you a sense of how some of these institutions are going to have to start evolving over time."

"It's the spirit of youth, talented and driven young people ready to make your mark on the world," Obama continues, adding that "more Americans using the dollar mean there will be more" purchases as well.

He praises Cuba's education system, saying that the high literacy among Cubans is a sign of "an investment that's been made here in Cuba".

Then he compliments "your ingenuity, who else could keep almendrones running?"

Almendrones is the Cuban nickname for their antiquated cars, many of which are relics of the 1950s.

What a dick.

BTW, having a conversation "around" an issue is total beta/SJWspeak.

Porch, what are you using to control you cat's thyroid?

With our Daisy, she couldn't tolerate the medicine and the vet wanted to do the Radio Cat procedure (radioactive iodine injection to kill off part of the thyroid, then the cat stays there for 10 days until her poop isn't radioactive anymore) but we were not down with that. We looked into it ourselves and found another vet who was willing to try diet to control it instead.

We put her on Scoence Diet y/d flavor food (wet and dry both) and we couldn't give her anything else. It lowered her thyroid levels to normal within a month and they stayed there until she passed away (three years later)

[Porchlight]

Damned Typepad eats 1 out of 3 comments!

JamesD, we have him on methimazole, but he has renal issues so it's a balancing act (treating thyroid can worsen renal function). He is on renal food. Poor old guy has problems! But he is a trooper and doesn't complain. :) I will ask the vet about the possibility of thyroid food...

[jimmyk]

If you look at the photo of the cake, you can quickly see that no professional baker produced that decoration.

Yeah, that was my reaction, but the video seems focused on the location of the price sticker, which somehow invalidates his claim that he couldn't have opened the package and done the lousy lettering job himself. It ought to be pretty easy to prove that no one in the store did the lettering, unless the guy happened to have the exact same frosting that the store uses. Anyway, I'm sure the guy is toast, but he'll blame the pressures of being gay and black in a Rethuglican state.

"A barbershop, the beauty salon, that's often the center of a neighborhood," Obama says, "so congratulations on not only starting your business but seeing it as a social enterprise."

[pagar a bacon, country ham and sausage supporter]

" But he's got good things to say about the Cuban government, too."

My guess is that is why he was allowed to speak.

Here are the rules for the slaves.

"Anyone who broke the rules received a bad report and was threatened with being sent back to Cuba or never again being selected for a medical brigade.

Team members are also instructed to keep watch over one another. If individuals defected or broke a rule, the person assigned to monitor them was also sanctioned.

There are written regulations to the effect that team members must “inform their superiors of any violations of disciplinary standards they are aware of, as well as inappropriate conduct that is detrimental to the prestige of the mission”. It is also considered a disciplinary infraction to “maintain friendships or relationships of other kinds with Cuban citizens… or foreigners who hold hostile views, or are against the Cuban Revolution”.

The regulations make it difficult to interview Cuban health professionals working abroad. The rules say it is an infraction to “articulate opinions or views to the press, radio or television that compromise the Cuban collaboration [with host nations], or that concern internal situations in the work centres where they provide their services or in the country where they are based, without prior instructions and authorisation on these matters”."

If I'm thinking of the price stickers that WF usually uses, you could probably peel and replace or move them if you were careful.

The fact that he requested the bakery staff to write "Love Wins" at the top of the cake with nothing in the middle suggests he had this planned out.

WF says the employee in question is also LGBT. This sounds terrible but what if that employee was known to Jordan and somehow a target?
