Ya know, without the help of plastic surgery, very few of us can escape what age does to us. I know. Every once in awhile, I'll check myself in mirror. Look at mah face. Stand back for a side full body profile shot. Look at the back of my legs. Check the flab under my arms. Look at all the weird skin tags. Notice that the hair on top of my head has moved to my nose and ears which are both getting larger to accommodate all that hair. Bend over and look between my legs at the back of my ball sack in the mirror.

I do all this and then take a few steps back, look at myself straight on and think, "Fuck that. I'm going out for a run."

Sarah Palin: ‘It’s time to impeach’ Barack Obamba

'The many impeachable offenses of Barack Obama can no longer be ignored,' she says.

Former vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin called for President Barack Obama’s impeachment in her most direct language yet in a column Tuesday morning.

“It’s time to impeach; and on behalf of American workers and legal immigrants of all backgrounds, we should vehemently oppose any politician on the left or right who would hesitate in voting for articles of impeachment,” Palin wrote in a column published Tuesday on the conservative website Breitbart. “The many impeachable offenses of Barack Obama can no longer be ignored. If after all this he’s not impeachable, then no one is.”

Latest on POLITICO
The former Alaskan governor accused Obama of deliberately leaving the border open and allowing undocumented immigrants to come in at will, ignoring American laws and driving the country deeper into debt.

(Also on POLITICO: Obama requests $3.7 billion for child migrants)

“His unsecured border crisis is the last straw that makes the battered wife say, ‘no mas,’” she wrote. “President Obama’s rewarding of lawlessness, including his own, is the foundational problem here.”

Native-born citizens and legal immigrants, she said, are the ones “getting screwed” following the rules while undocumented immigrants are exempt.

Palin has called for Obama’s impeachment before, though in more indirect ways. In a June 13 post on her Facebook page, Palin mentioned impeachment, again hinging it on the current immigration crisis.

“I sense not enough guts in D.C. to file impeachment charges against Team Obama for their countless documented illegalities, so the way to stop this is at the ballot box,” she wrote.

When asked whether he agreed with Palin that Obama should face impeachment, House Speaker John Boehner told reporters on the Hill, “I disagree.”

I could easily go the rest of my life without ever hearing her voice or seeing her face again. AAMOF I would pay money for that.

Sarah Palin is entertaining in a way that she's so unbelievably stupid. It was funny when she was running with John McCain for president. Then when the republicans realized that they had made a big mistake picking her as a running mate.

Remember the HBO movie Game Change? Great movie if you haven't seen it.

Yet without her, McCain's campaign would have been completely irrelevant.

Dayum! And she even has a year or two on me! Sadly she doesn't always photograph so well, but who does.


On a completely different subject, were you all as pleased as I was to see a 60 something woman at the front of the line when the Seattle Pot Shops opened for the first time? That put a grin on my face that has not yet retreated. Pot is mainstream now, and it is past time for the rest of the Country to catch up!!!

U.S. officials: Terrorist seizure of nuclear materials in Iraq of minimal concern
By Jethro Mullen, CNN
Thu July 10, 2014
140628220116-01-iraq-0628-horizontal-gallery.jpg

Vast swaths of northern Iraq, including the cities of Mosul and Tal Afar, have fallen as the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria, or ISIS, advances toward Baghdad, the capital. The ISIS militants want to establish a caliphate, or Islamic state, in the region, stretching from Iraq into northern Syria.
(CNN) -- Militants in Iraq have taken hold of nuclear materials at university science facilities near the northern city of Mosul, the Iraqi government has said in a letter to the United Nations.

But two U.S. officials told CNN on Wednesday that the small amounts of uranium aren't enriched or weapons-grade, prompting only minimal concern.

The letter from Iraq's U.N. ambassador about the uranium compounds asks for help "to stave off the threat of their use by terrorists in Iraq or abroad" as the country struggles with a deadly insurgency.


:uhoh: The news can be stressful sometimes!

I don't want to get into the debate about climate change," began Smith, a Republican from Hazard, "but I will simply point out that I think in academia we all agree that the temperature on Mars is exactly as it is here. Nobody will dispute that. Yet there are no coal mines on Mars. There are no factories on Mars that I'm aware of.

None too bright these republican creatures...

Quite honestly worse case scenario is that they make a dirty bomb with very limited radioactivity. Even large state sponsored organizations like Iran can't yet enrich uranium as such, it's highly doubtful that ISIS has the funds or resources to do better, so their options are rather limited.

This is probably bad news for people in the direct vicinity of the unrest, but i think it's fairly low priority in regards to international security. IMO this is a better bargaining chip for ISIS than a potential weapon.

I should also point out that if one was to create a dirty bomb for use overseas on major populations, much better starting material is readily available to the highest bidder. Not sure if that makes you feel any better thou.

Funding doesn't seem to be a problem, isis makes regular bank withdrawals...

"Long before it looted the Iraqi central bank in Mosul of $429 million, the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant/Syria (ISIS) was well-funded in its quest to establish a Shariah caliphate, thanks to a raging criminal enterprise of extortion, bank robbery and petty theft..."

The exact amount of money in ISIS's possession is the subject of intense debate among Western intelligence officials. At the high end, some analysts estimate that the group may have access to at least $500 million in cash drawn from bank robberies, oil smuggling, and old-fashioned extortion and protection rackets..."

"As ISIS takes over town after town in Iraq, they are acquiring money and supplies including American made vehicles, arms, and ammunition. The group reportedly scored $430 million this week when they looted the main bank in Mosul. They reportedly now have a stream of steady income sources, including from selling oil in the Northern Syrian regions they control..."

The terrorist isis that is... ;)

Gotcha. Then I'll wait here for the next 20 years while they acquire the technology to make this happen. Funding alone won't get you the ability to produce your own nukes overnight. Again, look Iran. Still not quite there. How many decades did it take the North Koreans to make something equal to what the US had in the 1940s?

Anyway if the fear here is hat ISIS is going to use this stuff to make a functioning nuclear weapon, then all the fret is seriously misplaced.

As I said the worst they can do is make a dirty bomb... but that was probably in their capabilities before this anyway
