Biden isn't a current member of the executive branch of government and therefor cannot legally assert 'executive privilege'

re: What’s the funniest movie you’ve ever seen?

Posted by Quintona on 12/21/19 at 10:52 pm

No particular order, but the ones that can still make my sides hurt after watching countless times:

Animal House
Arthur (Dudley Moore version)
Monty Python and the Holy Grail
Young Frankenstein
A Night at the Opera
A Day at the Races

re: Favorite Burt Reynolds film?

Posted by Quintona on 12/21/19 at 5:14 pm

Bandit, Hooper, Deliverance, The End... all the usuals of course

But if you haven't already, watch The Last Movie Star.
It's in the same theme as Lucky with Harry Dean Stanton and The Hero with Sam Elliot, hardly a new genre but all are good.

At this point I'll call bullshite on anything the dems claim since they're (a) serial liars and (b) project what they themselves do on everyone else

Sunshine! We moved away from the South over 20 yr ago where the winters had that steel gray overcast for much of the winter. We're in the Rockies where (chamber of commerce claims) 300+ days of sunshine/yr .. probably not that much but close to it. If a winter storm hangs around longer than a couple days or I'm traveling for work back East where it's socked in ... yeah it comes back hard. Get back in the sunlight, even if it's cold, and things improve greatly.

OK so maybe you can't move to fix this, but look at the color temperature of the light bulbs in your home and office. Find some bulbs that mimic the color temperature of daylight -- bet it helps.

re: Need help with my microwave

Posted by Quintona on 12/20/19 at 2:55 am

I just replaced my Samsung microwave with the exact same symptoms. Mine was under warranty so had a covered house call by a repair tech. Turns out it was shorting to the chassis intermittently. Tech declared it unrepairable and a fire hazard. Got a new Whirlpool (based on his recommendation of what he sees for reliability) and problem never resurfaced.

So yeah, just go get another one. Even if you figure out how to remove the panel(s) and sub-chassis, that may not tell you anything and by the time you screw around with it for a few hours you could have a new one in place.

Check into Consumer Cellular. They use ATT towers and we have 2 lines unlimited national voice/text/data for $60/mo

re: Schiffhead announces he's now going after Pence

Posted by Quintona on 12/19/19 at 6:24 pm

The way the left fantasizes about this is that Trump and Pence are removed making Pelosi president. Pelosi picks Hillary as her VP. Pelosi then resigns, making Hillary president.

I know, I know, so many massive hurdles that will never happen not to mention there would be open warfare before it ever came to fruition.

Schiffhead announces he's now going after Pence

Who didn't see this coming? :rolleyes:

quote:

Adam Schiff went on with Rachel Maddow last night to push their Trump-Ukraine conspiracy — something that was completely debunked everywhere after three weeks of testimony except on CNN, MSNBC and the fake news media.

During their conversation Schiff announced he was going after Vice President Mike Pence next and may have “acquired evidence” that the Vice President is hiding information in the House Ukrainian investigation.

Adam Schiff: Well, we have acquired a piece of evidence, classified by Jennifer Williams, something she alluded to in her open testimony. Then going back and looking through her records she found other information that was pertinent to that phone call that we asked her about and made that submission. There is nothing that is classified in the document but the vice president’s office has said they are going to classify… It is not proper to classify something because it would be embarrassing or incriminating. And that submission does shed light on the vice president’s knowledge. We think the American people should see it.

Jennifer Williams testified before Congress in November and offered nothing. She worked for Vice President Mike Pence. So now Schiff has Democrats thinking Williams holds the key to Pence’s impeachment.

Get Trump and Pence and who's next in line of succession? Speaker of the House.

Not that it would actually happen

I've said before that Pelosi knew that impeachment was a losing proposition but she was pressured by the extreme elements of her party. Nancy's not a political novice - could she be pulling a fast one on the Squad who aren't nearly as experienced or smart?

re: An Impeached President cannot nominate a Supreme Court Justice

One thing would make this infinitely better: RBG does not die, but holds a press conference announcing that she's appalled by the behavior of democrats and retires effective immediately.

re: An Impeached President cannot nominate a Supreme Court Justice

Posted by Quintona on 12/19/19 at 4:20 pm

When RBG kicks the left's meltdown will dwarf what they did over Kavanaugh.

Overlay that with the "impeachment" process and the fact that there is no constitutional prohibition against Trump appointing and getting a new justice approved...
there is literally no end to what the left would do in those circumstances.
