The EU

Google says the EU requires a notice of cookie use (by Google) and says they have posted a notice. I don't see it. If cookies bother you, go elsewhere. If the EU bothers you, emigrate. If you live outside the EU, don't go there.

Do The Dems Have A Strategy?


For John, BLUFThe threat of impeachment seems to go on and on.  Nothing to see here; just move along.




Here is the sub-headline:

O’Rourke voted twice against impeachment proceedings as a member of the House.

From the Blog Legal Insurrection, posted by Ms Mary Chastain, 6 May 2019.

Here is the lede:

2020 presidential candidate Robert O’Rourke became the latest Democrat to call for Congress to begin the process to impeach President Donald Trump after the release of Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s report.
Either the Democrats have a very good strategy, much of it hidden from view, to be revealed at the proper time, or they have no strategy.

My questions:

  • What are they going to do about Vice President Biden, who is, unlike President Trump, a real conservative?
  • Assuming the Dems make VEEP Pence go away, like they did Spiro Agnew, is Nancy Pelosi the person they want in the Oval Office?
    • Would she run in 2020?
    • Would she have undue influence over the Convention?
    • Who would be the new Speaker?
  • Should Ms Pelosi step down as Speaker, allowing Hillary Clinton to be elected to than position and then sliding into the White House, thus "rectifying" the Presidential Election of 2016?
  • What will be the view of the Voters?
    • Will the Voters stick with the New President?
    • Will the Votes demand a new, fresh, face?
    • Will the Voters revolt and go Republican, especially if the economy hiccuped?
I think the best Democratic path is to continue to harass the President, but to take no overt action.  And even that carries risks.

Hat tip to the InstaPundit.

I'm afraid of candidates like Biden, to me he's another Hillary - representing Status Quo and big business running the government. The reason Trump got elected was because people are tired of the system and over political correctness. People want change. All the "centralist" candidates have been "bought" by big business and lobbyists. It is time to tame big business and promote social programs. We have wiped out the middle class. Why are insurance companies, hospitals, and drug companies making so much? Why is a CEO making thousands of times what the workers make? Why can't we get the country working on improving the infrastructure and increasing wages. I don't think we should pay people not to work, but we should have programs that provide work. Social programs should provide work so that the poor and unemployed can afford to pay for their own food and health care.
