The backlash when today’s elementary and middle school students grow up is going to be fearsome. Compared to Repug/Evangelical indoctrination, the establishment line of the Eisenhower era was pretty mild stuff. Yet it was enough to generate the counter-culture and the various upheavals of the 60s in response. What will we see in 2040, when the young people of Muddle America realize they were systematically lied to about everything from STDs to slavery?

Don’t those assholes have beanbags? It really looked like the two cops with shotguns might be preparing to use bags or other less lethal rounds. They apparently didn’t fire when the rest of the cops blasted the crazy guy.
This is Lubbock police using beanbags to bring down Martin Salazar in 2016. Salazar stole a bat and a knife from Walmart and attacked a Walmart employee. He survived and was not injured other than some nasty bruises.

I’m sorry but the nudity and the cussing are the excuse, not the reason. The reason is the same as with the hatred of CRT - a deeply ingrained racism that sees nothing but white Christian protestants (& even then only evangelicals) as good and acceptable. These are the same people that in the 1940’s were Hitler’s willing executioners.

Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY)), who famously refused to give the last Democratic Supreme Court nominee a Senate hearing or vote, said he’s ready to give President Biden’s pick to the high court “a fair look,” The Hill reports.

Said McConnell: “I’m going to give the president’s nominee, whoever that may be, a fair look and to not predict**. We don’t even know who the nominee is.”

A little more about Martin Caidin, author of A Torch to the Enemy that we were discussing in the context of the bombing of Japan during World War II, atomic and otherwise.

Caidin was a very popular aviation and military adventure writer when I was young.
His best known work is probably the novel Cyborg (1972), which was the basis for the TV show The Six Million Dollar Man.

His book Marooned, about a rescue in orbit, was also made into a popular movie with an A list cast (Gregory Peck, Richard Crenna, David Janssen, James Franciscus, Gene Hackman).

He cut his teeth writing for blood and guts men’s magazines in the 50s and it shows in much of his work. For example, the blurb for his magazine story on the Battle of Berlin in 1945 reads “Zhukov: Sending his men into Berlin with two goals——kill the Nazis——and take their women!”

He was also accused frequently of being fast and loose with facts, repeating widely debunked aviation rumors as fact and often making simple research errors. For instance, in an article on the Spanish Civil War, he mistakes the Nieuport-Delage 52C fighter (developed in the late 20s and built until about 1933) for the World War I Nieuport scouts like the 17 and 28. This is a huge mistake in context, like mistaking a P-26 Peashooter for a Sopwith Camel. In any case, he cited the use of “ancient Nieuport scouts” as an example of the pathetic state of the Republican forces in the early air war against Franco.

Later in his career, he became interested in the paranormal and claimed to have psychic abilities. He had become heavily involved in the UFO culture by the time of his death in 1997 at age 70.

“fast and loose” is being kind :) His book “Everything But The Flak” about ferrying three B-17’s across the Atlantic for the filming of John Hersey’s “The War Lover”. The book would make a better movie than The War Lover turned out to be.

That said, he did some horrible myth making over the years and people still believe too much of it. His work on Samurai! with Saburo Sakai & Fred Saito has little in common with Japanese language works on Sakai’s life for example.

I read the first one when it first came out…it was beyond powerful.

I need to order the graphic novels that Bill Griffith (Zippy the Pinhead) has put out recently, one about Schlitzy, the original pinhead and a story about his parents, and how his mother cheated on his dad, looks amazing.

I haven’t thought of Zippy for decades. I started to read a few in the ’80s but got distracted. I also like Flaming Carrot, iirc.

Let’s imagine a world in which Biden said nothing about nominating a SC Justice, and then chose a well-qualified black woman when the time came.

We Dems have a family curse. It’s not doing the wrong thing, it’s shooting our mouths off unproductively.

Senators do not vote for a SC nominee. The President names his choice and they advise and consent (or not).

One change I would like to see is if the Senate refuses to vote on confirmation at all and pulls a McConnell, it should be considered that the Senate is waiving Advice and Consent and the pick advances to the court. Not sure if that can be done via legislation or if it requires a Constitutional amendment though. I haven’t looked at the wording but I know a lot about the Supreme Court in the Constitution amounted to “Let Congress fill in the blanks”.

It should just be a matter of legislation that defines what it means to “advise and consent”; under that framework, as you alluded to, it’s pretty much up to Congress to make the rules, and the current method of judicial appointment is largely by tradition rather than by any hard-and-fast rules (as we’ve seen with nuking the filibuster for Trump’s Supreme Court picks).

Ok, yeah, I was being a bit short in my statement because I was on my phone, and I figured you all would get the gist. Clyburn is pushing Biden to choose Childs as his nominee, touting the fact that he got his Republican state senators to support it.

That makes it sound creepy and ass-grabby.

Republican’s give their horrible laws names like “Helping People and Children Act” to screw everyone and “Patriot Act” to turn the country into a police state.

I don’t think going to opposite of that is any better.

both are Republicans.

Also in Childs’ favor — she went to non-Ivy undergrad and law schools, she’s from the South, and Joe Biden really owes Clyburn big-time.

re: #143 Punish Domestic Terrorists

I’m on the family plan, so I will need to have a bit of a group conversation about it. We just switched from AT&T to T-Mobile because of OAN, and while T-Mobile might have great outside coverage, we’re noticing some issues inside some buildings, like my job (where I get no reception inside) and my kid’s high school where the reception is a bit worse than outside.

Was AT&T’s support strictly via DirecTV? If so, you can go back if it wasn’t just the last straw.

It’s also $100 cheaper, so there’s that. I don’t really need it at my work, since I can’t bring my phone into my work area anyway.

The other interesting thing about Pandora over Spotify is my company approved Pandora as an allowed music streaming service on our computers. Prior to this, we couldn’t have anything.

Indeed, it is DAMN good. Children centric, but still with lots of things that appeal to adults. A couple of Trek novelists agree with your take…

To quote my Trumpster FB friend:

Dark money from George Soros in the Demand Justice group us fired up to put a socialist radical on the Supreme Court.
Demand Justice has forced Justice Stephen Breyer from his seat.
They have bullied him until he caved.
Disgusting!

Totally on-brand.
