Grist for the Dossier

Republicans are most concerned about growing signs of Democratic intensity. Over the past few weeks, a series of formidable Democratic candidates have announced bids against Republican incumbents. The group includes Jennifer Wexton of Virginia, Jason Crow of Colorado, and Chrissy Houlahan of Pennsylvania. All are running in suburban districts, the kind of areas where Trump’s falling political fortunes could be a weight on GOP incumbents

I am most interested in the trip President Trump is taking to Saudi Arabia in May.

It is wildly popular with youger Saudis, and from what information I have been able to glean, it looks like the Saudis are wanting to reform their military to be more in line with Egypt's.

I wonder what the left will say if by next year North Korea is neutralized, ISIS is pretty much destroyed, and there is an Israeli-Palestinian peace.

If you ask me, part of the efforts to undermine the President is exactly because the democrats fear this. And what does this say about them?

Anyone following the Kentucky Derby today? I'm pulling for Patch, the unlikely one-eyed contender. He lost it after developing an eye ulcer and was already named Patch!

One of our horses developed an eye ulcer and that was the hardest thing to treat. He had to have drops 3X a day and quickly learned what a dropper meant. We learned it's almost impossible to put something in the eye of a 900 lb. animal that is resisting.

So, our clever vet installed a small tube, through his eyelid, that snaked up across his head and into his mane. This was all held in place with super strong tape and vet wrap. In the mane was a port through which we injected the medicine.

As he was a smart horse, it took about 3 days to figure that when we messed around with his mane, his eye began to sting. Despite all of this and with the help of yummy treats, we saved his eye. He lived into his late 20's.

Go Patch!!!

I didn't have a favorite this year, so I will go with Patch as well.

This year there seem to be lot of horses with injuries they are recovering from.

[narciso]

Yes patch seems a good choice,

[JimNorCal]

Yes, narciso, that is a true statement of course. There is no monopoly by one party on "formidable" candidates.

But
A) that one just hit me as funny, esp after Hillary Chelsea and Ossoff
and
B) I bet that if you sifted thru Politico you would find VERY few articles talking up the formidability of Repub candidates. This is not Dem spin, it's Politico attempting to rally Dems with a Repubs-quaking-in-boots story.

But if he just remains a star in the minors, that is pretty good, too. Those minor league teams need big box office draws as well.

I think the Dems are scared of Sessions. They, yes they, want to influence the choice of prosecutor.

They would rather have someone who believes in the fiction of "No intent."

Posted by: Davod | May 05, 2017 at 05:35 AM

Bingo! More than fear of Sessions, though, they may fear the scope of the investigation Sessions may undertake and they may want to shape *that* (meaning, limit the scope) -- narciso, I think, wondered about their angle. That (limitation) may be it but I don't think they have a prayer of succeeding. It is all damage control now because LEGALLY & POLITICALLY they are in deep, deep trouble.

If Trump can just continue to corral these legislators, position them in a way where he dares them to fail on delivering (which he is most definitely doing), IMHO this administration can patiently undo the neutron bomb that *is* ObamaCare, Obama-ism, Obama-everything.

These votes on AHCA aren't just about health care.

That's what the Freedom Caucus, moderates, or any other faction needs to come to grips with. To hell with all of the highminded shiznit. This is a time to shame the devil, and we do that by telling the straight-up truth. The Obama crowd, the Clinton crowd, all of them are cynically banking on us getting tripped up over clean political principles within this very earthly realm.

Nah, suh. Hell no to Charlie Brown-ism.

narciso, one more quick comment on "formidable Dem candidates" then I'll stop feeding the troll.

Of course the MSM will boost any and all Dem candidates. Simultaneously there will be omens of disaster for all Repub endeavors. Suddenly the phrase "Great White Hope" flashed into my mind. I'm not a sports guy but wasn't there a period where the boxing World Champ was black, and they sent one white guy after another to challenge him, without success? Each was The GWH till he lost and another arose.

I haven't looked but it occurs to me to wonder: "formidable" candidates Hillary, Ossoff, and Chelsea are all white, no? What are the chances that the 3 named in the Politico article are white too?

[JimNorCal]

And what are the chances that each Great Dem Hope will crash and burn?
It's really just base-rallying by the MSM, uncritically accepted by the less intelligent among the opposite party.

Michael Jordan proved that pure NBA athleticism didn't perfectly transfer to baseball as the ultimate basketball assassin (pending LeBron) was an average at best minor league talent. Maybe Bo Jackson proved there's a better link between football and baseball although he was superbly equipped in both until a flukey football injury ruined both.

JimNorCal,

Let's remember the long history the dems have of passing over decent black candidates for white ones.

Foe example, although keith Ellison is a Muslim, he is oodles more personable than the thug Perez.

Or we could talk about how Maynard Jackson was passed over for head of the DNC back in the 90's for a white guy.

Or how a black football player and supreme court judge was passed over for running for senator in Minnesota, and the job went to a white guy.

Or how that black Congressman from Memphis (can't remember his name) was told to sit down and shut up when he wanted to run against Pelosi for speaker.

I could go on. There are numerous examples.

[Captain Hate]

One of the Indians single A clubs, the Lake Erie Captains, has a nice modern stadium in Eastlake that I should really go to, especially when they have dog nights when I can take Teddy. Bob Feller stayed active in promoting the club up until the end. He used to take part in promotions where fans in the stands would come down to try to catch up to his heater at the plate which, even in his 70s, was a daunting task. One time one of the team players was in street clothes and was selected and started cranking them off the screws as Rapid Robert wondered WTF as the teammates were doubled over laughing.

[Momto2]

JimNorCal- this reminds me of the recent discussion here concerning college musical concerts. Of course, they aren't the perfection of a symphony orchestra, but there is still much to appreciate and enjoy.

There is just something wholesome and good about the atmosphere at a baseball game, from T-ball on up!

The Obamas plan to have their legacy last by trying to create a home for a permanent protest culture.

As reported by the Chicago Tribune, their first designs were rejected for not being as ambitious as the Obamas wanted. The feedback from the former first couple was that the original designs were “too unflashy.” Obama then went on to say, “you could be sort of quiet but I think you’re a little too quiet” with the designs. The final designs, unveiled to city planners with the Obamas in attendance, along with friends and aides, show a tall temple-like structure, surrounded by lush roof-top gardens and open communal space.

As we are constantly reminded, even in post presidency, Barack Obama must not be remembered as just any other president (or even president-elect). Everything must be bigger, brighter and appear more audacious than any other, which might explain why construction on the monument is expected to cost almost three times more than that for any of his predecessors.

I wonder what the left will say if by next year North Korea is neutralized, ISIS is pretty much destroyed, and there is an Israeli-Palestinian peace.

They will say that Trump is a Racist, a Misogynist, and also that he's a Paranoid Schizo because Trump fired the female Black, Hillary supporting, Head White House Usher.

Douglas Brinkley, a presidential historian at Rice University, hypothesized that Reid was fired over Trump's paranoia.
'The Trump administration seems worried about Obama's spies, and there may have been a feeling that she wasn't on page with the Trumpians,' he told the Washington Post.
----------------
It's too early for me to have any outrage this morning so I'll let Former White House Staffers speak for me (in my own voice of course:)

Obama's deputy chief of staff Alyssa Mastromonaco, were outraged by Reid's dismissal. 'This is really some s***. Please RT so people know who 45 thinks is disposable,' she tweeted about the Post's report.

For Janet when she drops by and as a counter to all the bogus hype about children dying due to the new healthcare stuff:

Just under five years ago, we were in Omaha getting ready to pop over to Denver to see our new granddaughter in NICU. As I went out to the line where the crew were getting our bird ready to go, I struck up a conversation with an older gentleman on the line crew. When he heard what were up to, he offered the story that about 15 years earlier he received a late night call from the local hospital. The doc says, "we have another one for you."

Well, it turns out the line guy is a preacher in a local black church and this was not the first call he had received from the hospital over the years. In this case it was a 2 lb preemie crack baby who's mother was on her way back to the street. It took many weeks of transfusions to get the crack filtered out. He adopted her to his ever expanding family and she was (at that time) on the Honor Roll at the local HS.

No gummint intervention involved.

Or how that black Congressman from Memphis (can't remember his name) was told to sit down and shut up when he wanted to run against Pelosi for speaker.

I think it was Harold Ford Jr, Miss M.

And then Rep. Harold Ford Jr., D-Tenn., called Don Imus.

In a 6 a.m. phone call, which Imus took live on his nationally syndicated radio program, Ford announced that he would challenge Pelosi for the top spot. The ambitious Ford is an anomaly in several ways: at 32 the youngest Democrat in Congress, he is also perhaps its most conservative black member, as attested by his membership in the conservative group the Blue Dogs. Ford was among those who appeared on the White House steps with President Bush to voice his support for the resolution authorizing force in Iraq. He is also the only member of Congress to make People Magazine’s list of 50 sexiest people, in case it turns out beefcake is what the Democrats need to reverse their recent decline.

(Ford) says the struggle for the ideological soul of the Democratic Party will be played out in his race against Pelosi. “I don’t think Nancy Pelosi’s kind of politics is what’s needed right now,” he said. “Nancy’s message, and the course she wants to take us on is not where America wants to go.”

Spring training in AZ is fun, too.

A few years ago a friend and I did a tour of the AZ Fall League. It's great, over a few days we hit 5 or 6 games at various stadiums in the Phoenix area.

Well if Otezla won't give Alyssa a tryout for an ad, I think she's a sure thing for a Feminine Hygiene commercial:

How the White House Got Its First Tampon Machine and Other Tales from an Obama West Wing Insider by Alyssa Mastromonaco.

After enduring an “Oh my God, oh my God, no no no” menstruation moment during a dinner with her fellow female senior staffers — a moment that saw the destruction of her favorite pair of J.Crew capris — Mastromonaco says she “made it my mission to get a tampon dispenser in the West Wing women’s bathroom.”

“If we were truly serious about running a diverse operation and bringing more women into politics, we should give the office a basic level of comfort for them,” she writes. “Even if you had to pay a quarter, it would be better than menstruating all over the Oval.”

Mastromonaco didn’t have to fight to have the tampon dispenser installed — her request was granted immediately and with no objections — but she felt proud nonetheless.

And “since they didn’t engrave the tampon dispenser with ‘Made possible by Alyssa Mastromonaco,’ ” she writes, “I wanted to leave a record of it somewhere.”
---------------------------
I can't figure out why Alyssa didn't just ask the White House Usher for a spare?

I hope he's waiting as Comey thoroughly discredits himself and has no allies.

Just like the "Unexpectedly high" unemployment of the Obama years, she was SURPRISED. What clueless planet is she from?

Bah.

By the way, Axios says that the Chief Usher got along fine with president Trump and Melania. She was MEAN to her underlings and they APPLAUDED when her departure was announced.

If you ask me, that thing Axios posted was the kindest excuse. I imagine there was irregularity in the books as well, but she got a nice severance package so these people should just shut up.

[daddy]

In the book Alyssa talks about the multiple times Obama tried to play matchmaker for his then-single assistant...

...he “enjoyed gossiping about [her] dating life (or lack thereof).”

She also recalls how, during his 2008 presidential campaign, Obama urged her to ask out a staffer to then-Sen. Tom Harkin. “Look, he was into you!” Obama insisted. “You have to email him, and if you don’t, I will.” (Mastromonaco ultimately emailed the staffer, and ended up getting a few dates out of it.)

Another time, during an event at the home of Lawrence Bender, producer of Quentin Tarantino films, Obama told her he had “found someone” for her, and that she should “get off the couch and come be social.” (That “someone” turned out to be Bender himself, and she stayed on the couch.)

But the president’s most successful matchmaking effort was when he introduced Mastromonaco to Mindy Kaling at a dinner...

One man, who had recently donated his kidney, said he was told he's now considered to have a pre-existing condition.

"Now that I have a pre-existing condition, my cost of health care could go up significantly or I could lose health care," he said to Reed in front of the crowd in Busti.

Another person in the room interrupted the man, calling him a "hero" for his kidney donation and then said he was being "punished" for his good deed.

On Thursday, the House of Representatives narrowly passed the the American Health Care Act on a 217-213 vote, with all Democrats and 20 Republicans voting no. The measure, which would repeal large parts of former President Barack Obama's legacy legislation, is now before the Senate.

[Corn poney]

RICHARD PAINTER: They're not going to tell President Trump what to do. He's going to do everything he can to expand his ties with Rupert Murdoch because he wants favorable press coverage. He's not getting it elsewhere. He's shutting the "New York Times" out of the White House press briefings from time to time. He's hostile to CNN, other networks. He's going to talk to Rupert Murdoch and you're not going to stop him. What you can do is insist that career government employees throughout the agencies deal with fox news related matters. And I have to say the sexual harassment allegations are just the tip of the iceberg. The real issue for Rupert Murdoch is expanding the number of TV stations he owns. And of course, Donald Trump wants that. If he's asking to give him positive coverage going into the 2018-2020 elections, that's the really big issue. We're at a very, very difficult situation in the United States. We're not supposed to have some other media outlet linked to the United States Government that dominates the airwaves, but we could be going in that direction if we're not careful.

Bill Carter had the last word, and it's a show-stopper: the Trump White House is "sending their message out through basically a propaganda channel that's in bed with them, you know, it's another mark against their credibility.
