Veterans Day, is it already the 11th? True about thanking the vets for preserving our national rights. It’s a shame corporate America is trampling over those rights thru outsourcing! But that’s for another day.
When’s your parade downtown?
Can not get a permit for a “Downtown Armstrong” parade. It is something about our “one stride step” starts outside of downtown, passes thru and back down on the other side of downtown!
😉 got it.
@V, an excellent video from POTUS, well-written and delivered. I probably would feel better if it came from someone who had actually served but otherwise I’m happy that the veterans today don’t have to undergo the harassment that those returnees did in the ’70’s.
Actually You and myself have served by your recount, what one must consider is the majority of the registered votes in the last two Presidential elections applied the Man to the office.
That sports a title that includes the “Commander in Chief.” Top Echelon the way I learned it.

Actually, even more than I wish I understood what you were trying to say, I wish you knew what you were trying to say. Many times, when you avoid the definitions and videos, you actually make good sense. You have stated that, at times, you have been an military officer, an educator and a business executive as well as a member in good standing of the Analytic Consortium, ad nauseam. The frequent errors you make in grammar, punctuation, capitalization, and the use of polysyllabic words gives lie to your claims. My recommendation for you is to state your thoughts clearly and use “simple” words. I have no doubt of your intelligence but you need to recognize that others may not have the desire to attempt to interpret what you are trying to say.
A couple definitions for you (for a change):
pseudo–intellectual,
a person who wants to be thought of as having a lot of intelligence and knowledge but who is not really intelligent or knowledgeable.
megalomania
obsession with the exercise of power, especially in the domination of others.
synonyms: delusions of grandeur, folie de grandeur, thirst/lust for power; More
self-importance, egotism, conceit, conceitedness
“he’s blinded by his own megalomania and quest for historic recognition at any cost”
delusion about one’s own power or importance (typically as a symptom of manic or paranoid disorder).

Could be a reflection you’d have as well. 😉
You mean like Richard Chaney? Five Deferments!
Concerning the link posted about the election, does it bother anybody else that at least 11 precincts are omitted from the “final canvass”? The link overlooks 1-2, 1-3, 2-6, 2-11, 2-16, 3-1, 3-15, 5-7, 5-10, 6-6, and 6-10. I haven’t checked the precincts outside the city yet, but this looks like some seriously sloppy work from the election office. I wonder if those votes were counted.
Damn. I’m kind of a data nut and was digging this set, even though it is an archaic system. If this was a complete batch results run, and precincts are missing, then you can throw elections in Evansville right out the window. I hope the CCO gets to the bottom of this.
Are these still current precincts? Is it possible these been merged with other precincts? Just asking.
I’m sure they would have still re-numbered them consecutively. Besides, I live in one of the missing precincts.
Glanced at the 2012 general election canvas, 6-6 & 6-10 were not listed.
Went to the spring primary canvas. Those precincts had no recorded results. I’m thinking they combined with others. This is one reason I “hate” this new way of voting outside our old precincts! Manipulation will less likely be caught this way! Gone is that close precinct bond we once had. This may be what that “driving force” end result was after?
Thanks for the information, Arm. It makes absolutely no sense to do it that way, so I guess that is why the locals decided to do it that way.
The use of the “voting centers” is really pretty convenient, but you’re right about the bond that existed with the old way.
In this electronic age there is no reason for having over votes. Under votes may happen when the voter simply does not want to vote for the full number of candidates for which they are entitled.
It is interesting that there are so many over votes in the school board races. That should not be happening with the proper voting machines.
Took a quick peek. The two district races was good except for ward #1- pre #18 with the two.
The at-large races had 36 scattered thru out, the most was 4 in Perry township.
It will be interesting to see if the Senate confirms the President’s nominee for AG. She was confirmed unanimously twice before, most recently in 2010. She probably needs to be pushed through before the new congress is seated, just to be on the safe side.
I can hardly wait to here what kind of crazy things the conspiracy theorists will start saying about her, but I bet one of them will accuse her of being in favor of Sharia.
The vetting needs to be more rigorous for AG than for lesser offices. Just because she was approved twice for lower offices does not mean she is qualified to be AG. For instance a decent state senator from Illinois was no more prepared to be president than Wendy Mac is. Think about that for a second. Obama had the same or even less experience with governance than Wendy Mac, Jim Tomes, or Holli Sullivan when the mindless herd voted him into the White House. And we wonder why he has been incapable of governing.
Actually, you’re wrong. By that time Obama was a US senator.
Indeed. He missed numerous votes and had zero legislative impact during his 2 years as a senator. I stand by my claim that Wendy Mac is a well prepared to be president as Obama was in 2008. Of course he gives better face and tells more lies which is why he was elected. The absolute dumbest of the dumb elected this clown. Of course that includes Hollywood celebrities and Harvard professors.
If his opponent during the primary for senator had been bobby rush he would have lost. He lost the congressional race against Bobby Rush who is a convicted felon.
Make that “hear…”.
……”I bet one of them will accuse her of being in favor of Sharia.”
That’s hilarious. +1
Southern states under Republican control for 60 years still poor, fat, and uneducated. Do you need any more proof that conservatives bring failure?
At least if they are fat they must have plenty to eat.
Detroit after 70 years of democrat control is broke, dilapidated, and violent. The same is true for many northern cities. You may want to compare the education stats between the south and some of the Midwestern blue states. They are not very different. If you think Nashville is not better than Detroit, Cleveland, Buffalo, etc. you are misinformed. There are two southern cities that are largely poor and uneducated. Those are Memphis and Birmingham. Guess what party has been in control for a half century in those two shitholes? DEMOCRATS!
Is there some point to your posts other than you hate Democrats?
Asked the loony who was putting the sharia accusation into the mouths of others. Since the voters of this country let the democrats know what they think of their leadership, you and ghost have been squawking idiocies like sharia, Koch boys, and uteri on behalf of people you don’t even know. That is crazy LKB, get a grip on yourself.
The point of my posts has way less to do with democrats than it does to do with competence and entitlement. Ms. Lynch is not entitled to become AG just because Obama nominated her. She must be vetting for such a high level office as everyone should be. Maybe she is ready for this job and maybe she is not. Hopefully a good decision will be made even if she isn’t shoved down our throats like Weinzapfel shoved the Johnson Controls deal down the throat of Evansville on his way out.
Wasn’t Weinzapfel a democrat? Didn’t the democrats elect your favorite punching bag Winnie the Poop? Talk about poor judgement!
I don’t give either party a break when they screw up. I am a nominal Democrat, but follow my conscience when it is time to vote. Weinzapfel was surely as bad a Mayor as Winnie, and I think he had more malice in his heart than the bumbler we have now.
I think you may be surprised about the conspiracy theories that spring up concerning an African American woman. Just check out what Alex Jones and Breitbart start to peddle about her.
Btw, I didn’t vote for the Poop. He was elected by dummies of both parties.
Try again Laura, read the Toads post prior Pillory. Your degree of selective reading is showing it’s ugly head again. Democrats are fine. It’s the ignorant ones that stand out.
Is there some point to your post other than you hate republicans?
I think you know better than that, IE.
the vote on lynch for ag should not happen until the new congress convenes……..the new congress that Americans overwhelming elected………
I guess they can keep Holder awhile longer. It’s only two more years.
If Obama doesn’t wait, what does that tell us about his appointees and working together?
…..this comment is nakedly disingenuous, not even meets the threshold of “transparently”
This morning he’s saying he doesn’t intend to push it, so you can relax.
The new GOP congress will have plenty of time to screw everything up. Confirm her now before they take control. Hardly anyone voted in this last election which is why the GOP took over control of the Senate. That won’t happen again in 2016.
Americans didn’t overwhelmingly elect anybody. One of the lowest percentage of eligible voters to show up ever. No mandate for the crazies that weaseled in under an historically low turnout. Obama seems about done trying to work with the obstructionists, a little late but good for him. If they don’t want to confirm Lynch again, Holder will continue to do just fine. Besides, he’s got some unfinished business in Ferguson Missouri.

So, under the latest spin it was those who didn’t vote who have done their patriotic duty. Of course if they had voted 99% would have voted democrat, man more than once.
This latest spin from the far left is enough to make one dizzy to the point of hurling.
it is not spin ie………..it is called blind stupidity……aka the “low info voter”………

OPEN FORUM:
I’m recommending “CITY TACO” on Washington @ Boeke. It’s an urban setting, pop culture and minimal in appearance, but the cuisine was a true adventure. I had the chicken pesto taco. (was wonderful) had to have another. There seems to be an effort to serve healthy, unique dishes. Same partners who handle Kanpai.

Thanks, Bubba. I’d wondered about the place. We’ll try it out, probably tonight.
My niece has recommended it to me several times. I’ve heard several people say it’s good.
A fox news article? Come on. I assume this shows the gerrymandered districts, but I won’t click on it.
I’m ready for Christmas….!!!!!!!!! The wife said I gave to wait until Thanksgiving to put up the lights. Yes! Yes!
…….AL SHARPIE, COUNTRYBOY and PILLORY,
THIS…..is one of my favorite Senate Majority Leader, Mitch McConnell’s quotes:
““We are going to crush them everywhere,†Mr. McConnell, the Senate Republican leader, said in an interview…“I don’t think they (ignorant Tea Party candidates) are going to have a single nominee anywhere in the country.†March, 2014.
He was right.
Poor Mitch, Cruz and his crowd are going to make life hell for the Turtle.
That’s a good thing. The only thing worse than a Democrat is a Republican that acts like one.
No he wasn’t, Tea Party backed candidates picked up seats. McConnell got his head righted on that “crushing them” BS after the primary when he found he needed the backing of Rand Paul.
I’m pretty sure Rand Paul would have an apoplectic fit if anyone accused him of being a TPer.
The amazing thing is that there are 143,605 registered voters in Vanderburgh County. Sounds like it’s time to purge the voter rolls of those dead people and illegal immigrants…..
The letter published on CCO this morning from SBR to Rev. Brooks is a real indictment of the Winnecke administration and many of the Council people.
For all their victories and all their bluster the Republican leadership, and the dismissed bug face Eric Cantor, can only try to intimidate Obama (‘poison the well, if he does this or that it’s incendiary, blah blah’). They can’t wring his signature out of him and know it so they pivot quickly to their bully, fake tough-guy roots. Tough talk has the added benefit of making the hapless perennially used Teabaggers wet to their knees. They don’t have anybody to sign the crap they plan on passing. So … never being accused of learning from history they’ll impeach him and watch all their gains waft away like a fine shit-mist, just like when they impeached Bill Clinton. Ho ho ho.
Joe McCarthy Cruz will be pushed out near the edge of the flat earth where he belongs. The Turtle and the Orange Weeper have big plans and don’t want that strident clown mucking them up. They still need a signature.
Has Evansville-Vanderburgh School Corporation Superintendent David Smith sent Indiana Governor Mike Pence a not so veiled message that the corporation is fully willing to use grade inflation in order to meet state academic performance requirements?
Is this what parents really want for their children, or will it just drive even more parents to remove their children from the EVSC?
It probably will cause more of the most able students to be taken out of EVSC schools, Press. The students whose parents can’t or don’t take them elsewhere will have their lives impacted in a very negative way by the EVSC Supt and board. I think I gave up on the local public schools with the last election.
On a positive side in C&P this morning:
Charles and Mary Alice Ruxer plan to celebrate their 70th wedding anniversary.
All four of the others in the wedding party are still alive and plan on walking down the aisle this Thanksgiving Day! WOW, what are the odds!
Comment after the election. VERY classy act that Steve Melcher and his wife stopped by the Republican party at the casino and gave regards to Holly Sullivan. I wish Mr. Melcher well in all his future endeavors. Truly a class guy and lets honor him and all our other vets for their service to our country.
Veterans day.
Everybody just say thanks, Shake a hand today, forget the politics long enough remember why you’re still allowed to have any politics.
