State of Politics

Speaking of Johnsons*,
CAD(Culturally Aided Designs)
Objective/Subjective
Ge-oh-me-try!
The Presidents Club









The origins of this club in Hoover and Truman, harken back to mark a distinct difference in the act of presidential transitions, from the Bill Clinton/George W. Bush, George W. Bush/ Barack Obama turnovers.  Is it fair to mark the common factor, when congressional partisanship also plays a part? Or is it fair to ask if Hoover could change, what change will Romney bring?  Do we want to change course** or is it still our turn?  [Ctrl F "still"]

[9-7-11 No comment, but see tetrahedron of comments. Well actually I will comment. While the numbers may not be what some may expect,(see Three Faces of Eve) the focus and targeted nature on schools may be a tantalizing stimulus for more: "Advocates for FAST have called for approximately $50 billion in upfront spending, with the hope that early investment would beget future ones as neighboring school districts petition their members of Congress for money of their own." ]

[9-8-11 Grand Slam to carry the model.
Pivoting the metaphor from personalities to the diamond, not to imply that there is any sexism in the sorting. Timing is noted in the lede reference in the last link on the prospects for the presidents speech. The Grand Slam is not as it seems, not necessarily personalities but aggregate hits. My original slam was against the Morning Brew that Joe Scorborough pours, but I had yet to hear Robinson swing. He hit it out of the park, while Obama has yet to come up to the plate in the ninth.]

Educat or

Beck:
Keith Olberman brought this to light. My original concern was that Beck was so loose in his grammar or rhetoric that some misinterpretation was almost inescapable(indeed prophetic and not for profit).

It turns out he was even loose with his script. As I transcribed the video from Countdown:
Beck: Jesus conquered death, he wasn’t victimized he chose to give his life, he did have a choice. If he was a victim and this theology was true, then Jesus would have come back from the dead and made the Jews pay for what they did. That’s an abomination.
As his blog scripted it:
This is kind of complex, because Jesus did identify with the victims. But Jesus wasn't a victim, he was a conqueror. Jesus conquered death. He chose to give his life. Jesus didn't come back from the dead and make the Jews pay for what they did. That would have been an abomination.

As a Norman Goldman caller called it: 32:45 to 35:47 or more...
Not that there are soul* interpretations, but there are several that say Judas did pay, in fact possibly to the potter's field.

Triumph of the process (breaking)

Democratic opposition to seating Burris cracks. Failure of context. Saying something and acting on it are two different things. The senate has not seated Burris, while the "whys" are still wavering in the media. Race, politics, and media are undeniable factors; putting them together and forming questions and "Y"s are infinite.
[Definitively ** by Harry Reid: And apparently may "be damned"(Mike Vicara)*]

Bottom line: the senate is following its rules and making sure Illinois is following its rules and no one person is the decider, though many can have their say, and others can twist in the wind.

As for the other twisting senator; which hangs on the process as well.

The catch is that duplicate ballots are counted, but the orginals are not. That is the reason they are duplicated, in order to count them(presumably to get the count into a machine)and by every right the orginals are not counted because they cannot be counted. Speaking as one who has been a(legal)counter and duplicator of votes in Washington State.

[* this is what's breaking live on MSNBC: as my own imaginings and search for missing links, the mention of U.S. Senate rules requiring two signatures is yet to be found, meanwhile the process is being tainted by the media incompetence. Hence the reason the rules committe will be looking at this. I could imagine this going to the U.S. Supreme Court, but it would be likely that the process the senate will take will be within their rights. Rules are not laws, but processes, that must submit to the people involved. Out of this fog, my prediction is that the vote by the full senate will rule. The fact that it may be flexible is the matter. i.e. hinges on the idea that Illinois has a space for and the U.S. senate has required two signatures. That the U.S. Senate determines its rules is the rule and voting on it may be another hinge.]

** the link that hinges on my imagination and rulings, meaning what I hung my comments on,[the missing link(*)] while the Mike Vicara note refers to the taint the media insists on painting with their imaginings rather than footwork. OK, they are keeping us on our toes, by stepping on some.

*** "But you shouldn't confuse the fact that the courts should remain open to hear those claims, with the question of whether or not those claims have any merit," Elias said. "And in this case, former Senator Coleman's claims don't have any merit."
