Save the Date: Conservative Activist Says Obama Will Be Overthrown Nov. 19

Denounces “Muslim, socialist, anti-Semitic, anti-Christian, anti-white, pro-illegal immigrant, pro-radical gay, lesbian agenda”
Wingnuts • Views: 27,943

Judicial Watch founder Larry Klayman wrote Monday that the president had been indicted Sept. 18 by a citizens grand jury in Ocala, Fla., and convicted by a people’s court of defrauding voters by using a false birth certificate to prove his eligibility for office.

Klayman said Obama waived his right to a jury trial by failing to plead a response to the indictment, thus “thumbing his nose at We The People.”

A citizens’ judge then sentenced Obama to the maximum sentence of 10 years, Klayman wrote, and ordered the president to surrender himself into custody.

“Of course, Obama will not willingly obey the law of the people,” Klayman wrote. “He will attempt to hide behind the iron fences of the White House, perhaps cowering under his desk for fear that the people will rise up and demand his ouster.”

Klayman said that day could be Nov. 19, when he’s calling on “millions of Americans who have been appalled and disgusted by Obama’s criminality - his Muslim, socialist, anti-Semitic, anti-Christian, anti-white, pro-illegal immigrant, pro-radical gay and lesbian agenda — among other outrages” to march on Washington and demand the president resign or face prison time.

I wonder how jurors were selected for this perfectly open, legal and Constitutional process?

Where the G.O.P.’s Suicide Caucus Lives

…half of these districts are concentrated in the South, and a quarter of them are in the Midwest, while there’s a smattering of thirteen in the rural West and four in rural Pennsylvania (outside the population centers of Philadelphia and Pittsburgh). Naturally, there are no members from New England, the megalopolis corridor from Washington to Boston, or along the Pacific coastline.

These eighty members represent just eighteen per cent of the House and just a third of the two hundred and thirty-three House Republicans. They were elected with fourteen and a half million of the hundred and eighteen million votes cast in House elections last November, or twelve per cent of the total. In all, they represent fifty-eight million constituents. That may sound like a lot, but it’s just eighteen per cent of the population.

Iran, U.S., other powers open nuclear talks; Kerry aims to keep up pressure

reuters.com

(Reuters) - Iran’s new government began its first talks on its nuclear program with the United States and five other world powers on Thursday, with the Iranian foreign minister taking a seat next to U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry in a rare high-level contact between the two long-estranged nations.

(snip)

“Iranians are hoping to see some tangible steps taken by the Western powers - namely relief from the painful U.S., European Union and U.N. sanctions for refusing to suspend its uranium enrichment program.

“Iranian oil exports have fallen by around 60 percent in the past two years as the EU stopped purchases completely and most Asian buyers drastically cut imports because of sanctions. Iran is now earning around $100 million from oil sales a day as opposed to $250 million two years ago.”

Good evening Lizards.

Just been a pretty miserable day - and most of this week as well.

On-call the last two nights due to issues with the work phone system. (Traced to a bad motherboard in a call manager server so far.) This has also interfered with two other projects running on strict deadlines in the next six weeks.

Work also on their annual crackdown on web-site access. So LGF is currently blocked on the internet there. No mid-morning commentary while I drink my second cup of coffee or tea.

Not sleeping well, so my sleep cycle is now all out of kilter. Resisting urge to nap now knowing it will have me up half the night after sleeping 2-3 hours. This is also affecting appetite since I’m in a sort of half-hungry mode due to lack of sleep and too tired to cook what I should cook.

Topped off by news this morning that my sister-in-law passed away. Has been in hospice care for a number of weeks and then she slipped into a coma on Monday. Not unexpected, and I am glad I got to see her over Labor Day weekend when she was still pretty lucid and could still hold at least short conversations.

Hmm. Might be time to crack open a bottle of wine and have a glass or two with some chicken and vegetables.

(Now thinking very evil thoughts at the jackass blowing an air horn repeatedly down on street level. Die vermin. DIE.)

A grand jury consisting of my cat, the alpha squirrel in the oak out back, and three bent spoons indicted her September 9th, and she has been unresponsive to catcourt summons issued by my mumbling in my sleep. As such she waived her right to a trial by jury, and the feline overlord sentenced her to give me the entire month of December off, at time-and-a-half.

I suspect she will hide behind her cube walls, cowering in front of her keyboard as she pretends to do her job each and every day until then. So riveted with fear will she be that she will not let the facade slip for even one second, lest the squirrels and Swingline stapler see her weakness and rise up against her.

From Cooks Illustrated: Published March 1, 2008.
Is it necessary to rinse canned beans?
Canned beans are made by pressure-cooking dried beans directly in the can with water, salt, and preservatives. As the beans cook, starches and proteins leach into the liquid, thickening it. To find out if rinsing the beans is really necessary, we used canned beans in two recipes: chickpeas for hummus and red kidney beans for Simple Beef Chili. Tasters found no difference in the chili; there are so many bold flavors and contrasting textures in this dish that rinsing the beans didn’t matter.

We detected notable differences in the hummus. Most tasters thought the version with rinsed beans was brighter in flavor and less pasty than the version with unrinsed beans. So while rinsing the beans may not be necessary for a robust dish like chili, a thick, salty bean liquid does have the potential to throw a simpler recipe off-kilter. As rinsing beans only takes a few seconds, we recommend doing so.

Yep. Those puppies are loaded down with salt. Of course nuking them with butter (unsalted) kinda negates that to a degree.

Speaking of blood pressure, though, back a few years ago, my blood pressure, which had always been low normal, registered 140/90 at a physical. The Doc wanted to put me on BP meds, but I said I’d like to give diet and exercise a try. She said, that’s great, let’s give it a shot, come back in 6 months.

I those six months, I built up to riding > 100 miles a week, with a Sunday ride of 60+ miles with >3000 feet of climbing. I cut way down on carbs, and ate bushels of salads. I lost 10 lbs, and my resting heart rate got back down to 48.

I went in for the checkup - 140/90.

It doesn’t make a difference in the flavor but it does make a difference in the sodium content. Plus you get rid of the extra liquid and they lose the cloying bits.

Steel-cut oats, and add a 1/2 cup of dried cherries right before it’s ready.

Small slow cooker.

1/2 cup dried apples or apricots or cherry or etc
1/2 cup raisins
1/2 cup half & half

My bp didn’t rise up until I was 60-something. But cholesterol levels? Even when I weighed less about 105 lbs in my 40s (a vegetarian, too, and I was never really overweight for my height until I got older), it was way too high.

Genetics, how does that work? : ) The only drug that worked to bring it down dramatically was Livolo (I got tons of samples from the doc), and that’s not covered under Medicare—very expensive, too, so had to stop taking it, and cholesterol went back up.

A sense of confusion settled over the House, both over how to avoid a shutdown and how to handle even more important legislation to increase the government’s borrowing ability to avert a default on U.S. obligations. Short of votes, House leaders shelved a vote that had been expected this weekend on the debt limit measure and gave frustrated GOP lawmakers few clues about what they plan to do to avoid a shutdown.

The chaos sets the stage for weekend drama on Capitol Hill, with the Senate planning to send the fractious House a straightforward bill Friday to keep the government operating through Nov. 15 rather than partly closing down at midnight Monday.

Speaker John Boehner of Ohio and several rank-and-file Republicans said the House simply won’t accept a “clean” spending measure, even though that’s been the norm in Congress on dozens of occasions since the 1995-96 government closures that bruised Republicans and strengthened the hand of Democratic President Bill Clinton.

“I don’t see that happening,” Boehner said. Still, he declared that “I have no interest in a government shutdown” and he doesn’t expect one to occur on Tuesday.

What the fuck is this shit? Boehner knows goddamned well that his only options are shutdown / default or to abandon the Hastert rule nonsense and pass two clean bills with Dem support. I get that he doesn’t want to admit that before each vote because either way he’s fucked, but this is so dishonest.

Baseball Commissioner Bud Selig To Retire After Next Season

220 jaunte  Thu, Sep 26, 2013 5:09:19pm
Economists of all political persuasions have warned that a failure to raise the debt ceiling by the Treasury’s deadline of Oct. 17 could be catastrophic. The world economy’s faith in the safety of Treasury debt would be shaken for years. Interest rates could shoot up, and stock prices worldwide would most likely plummet.

“Defaulting on any obligation of the U.S. government would be a dangerous gamble,” Doug Elmendorf, the director of the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office, told the House Budget Committee on Thursday. “In a very uncertain world, the one thing everyone has been able to count on is that the U.S. government will pay its bills on time.”

But many House Republicans put little stock in such pronouncements.

“Economists, what have they been doing? They make all sorts of predictions,” said Representative John Fleming, Republican of Louisiana. “Many times they’re wrong, so I don’t think we should run government based on economists’ predictions.”
