I spoke to the lawyer for is working the AT&T case for the EFF today. Very interesting. And one thing that stuck me was just how huge the guns are lined up against us. And how it kind of pisses me off that we have to convince our OWN DEMOCRATIC Senators to demand the president follow the law. And then I though, "Hey why let the Republican's off the Hook, don't THEY have an obligation to follow the law? What gives, have we just ceded the whole "go ahead and break the law" thing to them?
Sure it's great to go after the Bush Dog democrats, but why should the republican's get a free ride?

Was reading the 2/25 issue of Newsweek ... they said:
"Looking to the fall, Barack Obama gives John McCain a backhanded compliment by citing McCain's 'half century' of service. We get it, Barack: he's old. Not cool."
It's interesting that Clinton's comment about McCain got so much airplay (especially here) yet Obama's was completely off the radar screen. I know, I know ... she took a swipe at Obama in the process, but nevertheless, he got a complete pass for his comment, while she didn't.
We have to be very careful about how we are being played by the media, and how we are feeding into the increased vitriol between the two candidates.

"Don't count him out there yet."
not counting him out quite yet, but the air is going out of the balloon very quickly and he seems either unable or unwilling to change the dynamic. i wouldn't doubt he doesn't win tomorrow, although i think he'll be ok in MS.
then it's off to PA, where if history holds, he'll start to gain a bit, and get smacked back with negative attacks. it's in many ways more daunting then ohio because it's even older and redder then ohio. if there's a saving grace it's that he's got weeks for people to get to know him there, vs a 2 week blitz thru commercials.
i see a long slow slide, with more trouble every day because no one will align with a candidate that can't or won't fight back. he's gonna have a hard time attracting new superdelegates.
Liquor in the front...poker in the back???

One thing that occurred to me that was nobody is in charge of coordinating the response to the telcos and the WH when it came to what they are pushing.
It's a bunch of bloggers and groups, but there is no "Spokesman" for the whole
"Don't let the telcos get immunity and don't let the Bush people get off with out discovery."
Frankly it's like those deals where some multibillion dollar group wants one thing and puts it on the ballot and all these other groups have to scrap together money to oppose it, it just pisses me off when that happens.

fokowi I'm not really sure exactly what happened to day, at the last minute Pelosi was trying to work some other bill in that had some strangeness. I read what FDL said about today and then I faxed to Pelosi the following message, (below)
But today I was talking to the actual EFF lawyer who is works with the whistle blower in the AT&T case and thinking how we can make his story more personal and more connected to people so they care.
I have heard of this Halo thing, but that's about all I know about it. So that's right out.

I know the GOP is enjoying it already...Fun City!
Saying that doesn't make it so.
But if it makes you feel better, you go right ahead and keep telling yourself that.
Dear Speaker Pelosi:
I was talking to a lawyer for the Electronic Freedom Foundation today. He told me how their entire yearly budget is 2.5 million dollars. They are standing up for the rule of law, they are standing up for our privacy, they are standing against the law breaking telcos and the White House who want what they want and will fix the laws if they can't get it.
I asked, "Who can I get to help you? What other corporations or groups have the kind of money and lobbying power that the telcos have to buy this immunity via "education" and false fear?
He didn't have an answer.
Then it occurred to me. It's your job to stand up for the rule of law. You can stand up for our privacy. And you aren't letting terrorists win when you demand a FISA warrant. The terrorists win when we ignore our laws. Especially when those laws are perfectly capable of doing what we need to do.
You can stand up to the White House and say, "No."
You can demand the White House not spy without a warrant.
You can demand corporations follow the law and not just take the word of the President.
You can say, "I will NOT allow changes in a bill so that no one is punished for lawbreaking."
You can demand to know WHO was being spied upon.
You can say to the Bush White House,"Stop playing the fear card! Let ME see who you really listened to and I'll determine if this is appropriate spying." And if he balks, you can ask why. "Is it because my name is the list, Mr. President?
I NEED you to be on the side of law. I NEED you to stand up for my privacy. I don't want to believe that the telcos can buy their way out of the rules found in the Constitution based on some arm twisting, clever wording and the a worn out fear card.
okay folks. have a good night.
Guess what's on, kids?

And when did I fucking say that? I said I disapproved of the terrible way that Hillary was acting. I do. I said that I would vote for her and that was it. She is a petty and mean spirited poor loser. Sorry. She could be a woman a man or anything else. She lost. Sorry.
She had her choice of the best people. She had the best money. She had everything and she blew it. Sorry.
But if she cannot do anything better than disrespect the candidate the PEOPLE have chosen, she deserves little more than my vote. Sorry. Glad you like her. I do not.
"Anyone that plans on sitting out the election because "their" candidate didn't win the nomination deserves nothing BUT belittling."
i disagree. no one is entitled to my vote, and i have my own critera for earning it.
being a scumbag with a D next to their name is like putting lipstick on a pig. the pig is prettier, but it's still a pig.
Ask the GOP if it would be fun to lose IL-14 (Hastert's seat) tomorrow in the special election.
Is there a chance that could happen? It would be v. cool.
From the FDL link:
Brave men who look to me from the promontory of my middle age like kids were willing to die - did die - so these evil fuckers wouldn't win.
Now it's down to us. We can snatch the federalist society's chance to rebuild the world in their own sick images away from them and see that they never get near a chance to hurt our country this way again.
Or you could decide that if your candidate doesn't win the nomination you'd rather see McCain choose the next three or four Supreme Court Justices than vote for the other Democrat.
I'd like you to try and find a way to explain that would have convinced Michael Schwerner, James Chaney, and Andrew Goodman.
They died for this. All we have to do is reach out a hand and take it, which still leaves you one hand free to hold your nose if you need it.
Me, I think we owe it to them. I can do it either way.
I remember when they died ... I'm sure it never occurred to them that's what would happen. It was much more naive time.
But yes, we owe it to them. Eyes on the prize, folks.
John McCain's greatest service to his country was his time spent as VP for Public Relations at CindyLouHou's dad's Budweiser Distributorship in Phoenix. The rest is pretty much a waste of a life.

good night echidne and anon.
What I do not understand is WHY it is so hard for people on this blog to understand how turned off people are by this sort of behavior. You ask why only fifty per cent of Americans vote for the president (or sixty per cent) and this is the reason.
Why can't we just have a race about the issues? Why do we accept this bullshit? Why do we encourage this? You say grow up? I say, no. You tell me I am not a good American if I do not accept that this is way things are. I tell you that I am a good American because I will NEVER accept this view of my country.
I believe you are wrong. I believe YOU and your acceptance of the unacceptable are the reason we are in this fucking mess.

I think the Hillary owes it to me to quit insulting me and quit acting like I owe her my vote.
Do I want McCain to win? no. But that doesn't mean I have to cheerlead for her while she acts like a Karl Rove protoge.
I think that's why I'm so annoyed. She feels like she can get away with anything... because we have no where to go.

Really, dunce, you just keep humiliating yourself...
John McCain's positions are mutually irreconcilable at different times, not necessarily far apart.
This is because he is only interested in his own perceived self-interest and so feels free to say anything he thinks people will swallow.
His narcissism exceeds that of Bush.

less than half a million. so, nearly 5% of the state cheered for Barrack tonight.
sheep can't vote. if they could Wyoming would secede from the union.
the novelty of a woman condidate is less spell binding in a place that's had women voting since before it was a state, that had female statewide office holders before 1900, and a multi-term female governor starting around 1925.
And when Hillary complimented McCain for his lifetime of service, she got blasted for sucking up to the enemy. Obama didn't.
Yeah, but she pretty much said that McBush was qualified to be "commander in chief" and that Obama isn't.
I think that's out of bounds.
When Obama talks about McBush, he always says, "we respect his service but he's a fucking fossil on the issues and he's wrong about everything. And he's old."
I think that's a lot different.

I have thought long about this question of what is acceptable and my conclusion is the one I have just stated. I am tired of the lies. (Even a few minutes ago when I was putting the dogs and wife to bed, I turned on the local news and they repeated the lie that Obama assured the Canadians that he really did not mean what he said about NAFTA but this time they ADDED that he did not really mean that he would withdraw the troops from Iraq - the whispering campaign and lies keep coming and we know where they are coming from, don't we?)

Speaking of repressed gaiii self-loathers, I give you once again Fort Lauderdale mayor Jim Naugle.
He refuses to use the word "gay" because gay means "happy," and homosexuals, he says, aren't happy. He also opposes public restrooms on Ft. Lauderdale Beach because they will attract men who want to have sex.
He's a registered Democrat, but he loves him some Chimpy.

If you take the "Things" that Barack Obama has said and put them side by side with the things that Hillary Clinton has said AND done and compared them as to their truth, fairness, and ORIGIN.
Who do YOU believe would be the winner for the most truthful, fair, and honest?
Hillary tried to sound "Texan" while campaigning here. Please God, make it stop.
Gee, no other candidate in the history of campaigning has ever done that. And just this morning, plantsman informed us that she's a bottle blonde and those highlights aren't really hers. Clearly, she should curl up and die.

I had no dog in the race after Edwards dropped out. At first. But she has pissed me off big time in the last three weeks. I don't hate her, she is a fine Senator most of the time. But she shows no signs of having learned from her biggest mistakes in political life.
The average american is a little bit above average.
Bobby, I thought you lived in Vancouver. Where did I get that idea?
Zap: My mom was on Chemo and she had a rough time, I should have called her more, but I just didn't. But after Christmas when my Dad asked me why I said I had no excuses but it's hard sometimes when the blogosphere has become such a big part of my life and beating back on the crazy talk radio hosts to talk to my republican mom. She listens to Rush and quotes him back to us. I really don't want to argue with her about stuff because It's not worth it, but for people like her who are RWAs (as Dean wrote about in his book) they really are sucked in to the stuff that Rush and Hannity put out.
Right wing Talk radio is hurting the country, it divides us and I fell for it and it kept me a bit distance from my family. They fell for it too since I was an "evil liberal" on "the left coast" with all the "fruits and nuts"
I don't like my parents being turned against me just because Rush Limbaugh and the Right Wing Noise machine needs us to the the enemy for ratings purposes.
John Stewart said it best. "Stop it, you're hurting America."
For me I'm trying to reduce it or stop in the good old fashion way, make it less profitable. When it isn't as profitable as before then they might tone it down. And if they don't I point out just how over the top they are to the remaining advertisers. It takes more time, but it IS having an impact and they can't whine about their "free speech" on commercially supported broadcast radio. They just lose their financial support.
And just this morning, plantsman informed us that she's a bottle blonde and those highlights aren't really hers.

That's not a fair criticism of Sen. Clinton. Her husband is a Southerner; naturally, she'd pick up some of his accent.

I just think we should be careful about listening to what the media is telling us. We have no idea what footage is being left on the cutting room floor, so to speak.

Meanwhile:
power: "You can’t make a commitment in March 2008 about what circumstances will be like in January of 2009," she said. "He will, of course, not rely on some plan that he’s crafted as a presidential candidate or a U.S. Senator. He will rely upon a plan – an operational plan – that he pulls together in consultation with people who are on the ground to whom he doesn’t have daily access now, as a result of not being the president. So to think – it would be the height of ideology to sort of say, 'Well, I said it, therefore I’m going to impose it on whatever reality greets me.'"
"It’s a best-case scenario," she said again.

Within the last month, a top staff member for Obama's campaign telephoned Michael Wilson, Canada's ambassador to the United States, and warned him that Obama would speak out against NAFTA, according to Canadian sources.
The staff member reassured Wilson that the criticisms would only be campaign rhetoric, and should not be taken at face value.

I am focused on the important things. Hillary Clinton voted for the Kyl Lieberman ammendment. After she voted to authorize the war in Iraq. She has never taken a leadership position in the Senate that entailed any degree of personal political risk.
So maybe I am focused on something a bit more concrete than allegations about NAFTA that are pretty nebulous and that come from Steven Fucking Harper, Canada's own George Bush.

I disagree with both of them on something important re foreign policy, though I think either would be a huge improvement over Bush. And I like Obama enough to vote for him, too.

Earth, Gaia, is feminine. So's Venus. Mercury, Mars, Saturn, Pluto, Jupiter, and Uranus are male.

Brooklyn Girl,
I am NOT disputing that elections are nasty things. What I am disputing is Hillary Clinton's decision to go extremely NEGATIVE AFTER she has lost. According to what I am reading she cannot win the primary elections outright. She cannot even win the superdelegates at this point without some sort of subterfuge.
The question then becomes: Why is she trying to tear apart the presumptive nominee of the party? Perhaps she feels that she can still win but if that is the case, she is playing a very dangerous game by tearing apart the party. (And again, according to what I have read, this is not even possible anyway. Like the election last Tuesday. She is going to end up, by winning, with less than a dozen delegates more than Obama. That is not much a of a win)
So why is she doing it? Ego? She cannot stand the fact that she is losing? A desperate chance of winning at ANY cost (including the election?) A ploy to set party members against each other in hope of setting up some sort of confrontation that will enable the CLinton's longstanding to serve as a benefit?
None of these are viable in my opinion. Yes, elections in this day and age are nasty things but can't we save our vitriol for our enemies and in races where we can actually win something? At this point all of this nastiness is only going to make us lose.
On a brighter note, I loved this little capsule review of 10,000 BC from the Detroit News.

americablog and kos are insane. The others usually have reasonable posts. Nothing wrong with supporting a candidate. There is something wrong with being insane.
It seems patently ridiculous to me for anyone to be arguing that these two are not in a statistical dead heat in which neither can prevail without the SPs.
And neither one's going to go into the convention with enough votes to put them over the top. The sooner they decide on a "unity" ticket the better.
When I was in graduate school and close to burning out, I would ride over the top of the Chesapeake Bay, and spend days on the Eastern Shore around Chicoteague or such, just peddling for miles on the flat roads. And I would stop by some attractive tree, lay down the bike and read a piece of some novel. Damn, I wish I possessed the coping mechanisms now that I had back then.

Neither can win outright. MI and FL put everything up for grabs.
MI and FL aren't gonna pay 15 Mil to host another primary.
MI may put on a caucus, but that barely guarantees HRC enough delegates to break even with BHO.
The Supers will decide most of it before PA, I'm thinking.

no, she can still win. But outside of a major obama collapse it's virtually impossible and could well involve subterfuge at the convention.
the convention hall is gonna be half empty, and maybe a mess in the streets, and take decades to patch up the fallout. but she can 'win' that way.

What would be better TV than a real convention to decide the nominee? The idea that it would somehow be bad is silly - McCain won't be able to buy the coverage the Dems will be getting for free all summer. And the polls I've heard about say the Dem voters by a large margin are pretty happy to let it go to the convention.
That said, if they're really still deadlocked by then, I have a hard time imagining a ticket without both of them on it. If Reagan could suck it up and take on Poppy, one of them can take the other.

Neither of them can win with pledged delegates. And Hillary could win with supers.
So should obama drop out? What is he gonna do have his campaign send the most vile rat wing talking points to reporters as 'not for attribution'? Is he gonna compare Hillary to cheney and bush? Will he have jackson jr. running around playing the race card while obama's SC HQ sends out emails claim Bill and Hill are racists? Will the obama campaign claim Hillary is the most secretive pol ever? Cause he has already done all that and more. So do you think obama should drop?

We'll find a compromise in the end and move on to the important issue: beating McCain. But claiming that either candidate is "the will of the people" or the only decent human in the race is kind of like Bush claiming that his "win" in 2004 was a "mandate" that came with immense "political capital."

Prof, I totally respect your position on this election and I'm not just blowing smoke up your ass.
I'm dealing with the same internal struggle.
I too, voted for Hillary. I've supported Obama for 6 months, but when the moment of truth came and I saw those names listed on my _paper ballot_ (in Ohio, we had the choice), I can't explain it.
Maybe part of me want did it to make this thing continue, in which case I am a cynical prick. Yet I admire Obama enough that I felt as if I needed to see him tested. And that I would ultimately have another chance to vote for him.
I feel like a man who's had his heart broken, and upon meeting someone new who he's attracted to, he has to make sure this is The One. This is the woman who will be there when the going gets rough.

I seem to repeat this rant often. This isn't 1968. Bush isn't LBJ. Clinton and Obama aren't Humphrey, McCarthy and RFK. there haven't been two major assassinations. There were 500,000 troops in Vietnam, and a draft.
This is, on the other hand, a year when the Republican candidate is someone who embraces an unpopular war, and is so unliked in his own party that they happily gave him up for dead a year ago. When Democratic voters turn out in record-breaking numbers far higher than Republicans. When the whole goddamned world, and 80% of the country, want a change from Bushist government.

Is TP being "loyal to a candidate":
Obama Adviser: I ‘Strongly’ Believe Telecoms ‘Should Be Granted Immunity’
Sen. Barack Obama (D-IL) has consistently spoken out and voted against granting retroactive immunity for telecoms that participated with the administration’s warrantless wiretapping program. This stance was part of the reason he won the support of Sen. Chris Dodd (D-CT), a leader on civil liberties issues.
One of Obama’s advisers on intelligence and foreign policy advisers, however, is someone who “strongly” supports telecomm immunity. John Brennan is a former CIA official and the current chairman of the Intelligence and National Security Alliance. In a new National Journal interview, Brennan makes it clear that he agrees with the Bush administration on the issue of immunity...

According to cnn's John King, even if Hillary wins every remaining primary, including Mi and Fl, she's still behind Barak. My take is that the magic delegate # is 100. If, at the end, Barak is ahead by 100 or more, the supers will be persuaded to go with him, but if he's ahead by less than 100, it's every super for her/himself and Hillary may very well take it. That's why she has to fight so severely until the end...to whittle his lead in delegates, and making him appear weak and inexperienced and not "tough" enough is a surefire way of eroding his lead. He has to show that he has the mettle to rise to this challenge and also to prove that he is made of the same teflon that reagan was made of, where criticisms bounce off ineffectively. He didn't show it last week but maybe he's learned from that miscue and will rebound. From what I gather, if the Obama enthusiasts feel the nomination was unfairly and undemocratically taken away from him, they've vowed to Chicagoize Denver to the point where the streets will be on fire.

Obama Camp Sees Fine Line in Hitting Back
http://www.nytimes.com/2008/03/0...adviser.html?
hp
Amazing. Poor camp obama is having a hard time walking that fine line attacking that girl Hillary.
power fell off the line:
Ms Power told The Scotsman Mrs Clinton was stopping at nothing to try to seize the lead from Mr Obama.
"We f***** up in Ohio," she admitted. "In Ohio, they are obsessed and Hillary is going to town on it, because she knows Ohio's the only place they can win.
"She is a monster, too – that is off the record – she is stooping to anything," Ms Power said, hastily trying to withdraw her remark.
http://thescotsman.scotsman.com/...e-
as.3854371.jp
I mean any other time it woulda been OK for a dem camp to call their opponent a monster and a liar and worse but cause Hillary is a girl its tough for camp obama to walk that fine line. The new kind hope and audcity out of the obama camp is really refeshing isn't it. Too bad they have to put up with that girl.
It really is this stupid.
BTW, last week I linked to an article about a remedial math teacher at Cal State Hayward who got canned for refusing to sign a "loyalty oath."
Well...
A Cal State East Bay math teacher and practicing Quaker who was fired for refusing to sign a state-required loyalty oath got her job back this week with an apology from the university and a clarification that the oath does not require employees to take up arms in violation of their religious beliefs.
"It's the best possible outcome," said Marianne Kearney-Brown, 50, a graduate student in mathematics who was teaching a remedial class for undergraduates. "My concerns have been addressed."
As a Quaker, Kearney-Brown is committed to nonviolence and was unwilling to sign the state oath of allegiance that required her to "swear (or affirm)" that she would "support and defend" the U.S. and California constitutions "against all enemies, foreign and domestic." She tried inserting the word "nonviolently" in front of the word "support," but was told by university officials that altering the oath was unacceptable.
Kearney-Brown, a former high school math teacher, was fired Feb. 28 after six weeks on the job at the Hayward campus. She filed a grievance with the help of her union, the United Auto Workers.
In a grievance hearing Thursday conducted in a telephone conference call, an attorney for the California State University chancellor's office presented Kearney-Brown with a statement saying in part, "Signing the oath does not carry with it any obligation or requirement that public employees bear arms or otherwise engage in violence."
With that statement stapled to the loyalty oath, and a promise by the university to present the clarifying language to other new employees, Kearney-Brown said Friday that she felt comfortable signing the form and returning to work.
"We're very happy with the results," said Clara Potes-Fellow, a spokeswoman for the CSU chancellor's office. "The university would very much like her to be an employee. ... We were acting in good faith and we wanted to resolve the situation in a positive way."
That last statement is, of course, bullshit.

It's a few hotheads talking who forget how young he is and how many other chances he'll have, if he doesn't win this time.
You're wrong, Hecate. I respect you immensely, but you're wrong.
A long Senate career is not a path to the presidency. As James Bryce wrote a century ago, such a career makes more enemies, puts more votes on the record, and the mediocrity with fewer enemies is to be preferred.
(And the Illinois governor's mansion is not a path either, given that the last governor is in jail, and the incumbent under scrutiny.)

That sort of attitude on approach is much more common than most people imagine. Obviously that is on the extreme, but sitting at a window on a passenger jet its not easy to tell that the aircraft is not always centerline to centerline with the runway.

Should have phrased that a bit better.
You could see he was not only crabbing but side-slipping, coming in, so he was giving it some right aileron (or so it looked). When he tried to do the flare-out, he was also leveling his wings. It seemed to me, after watching the video a couple of times, that instead of leveling, he rolled the starboard wingtip a few degrees above level.
With that kind of crosswind, wouldn't that help explain why he rolled to the left so suddenly, particularly if he got hit by a peak gust right then?
(Admission: Not a real pilot. I just play one on the computer, so this stuff interests me.)

Landing in LAX about 10 yrs ago.
A couple of years ago, coming into KC I noticed that the plane was descending steeper and faster than is typical for a passenger jet. It was kinda fun actually. as we approached the airport I could see why, a thunderstorm was approaching.
We leveled out and begun a normal approach and maybe 6 miles short of the runway we got into the influence of the storm... turbulence at altitude is one thing, but at that point the roller coaster effect at low altitude was very disturbing.

My last thing on the Lufthansa landing:
Looks like they were offered a runway with more favorable winds at first, but took the runway with the better instrumentation.
On the second, successful attempt, they took the runway the winds more favored.

Here's how to do crosswind landings. Mostly Boeing test pilots during certification trials.
Are you fucking kidding me?
This happens that often?
It looks like the idea is to ignore the angle, and just stick the landing. But isn't there an angle at which it's impossible to land at?
Is that how they grow 'em down in Texas?

Elias: Anagram-archist.
Boeing recommends to land in the crab, keep the crosswind correction in all the way to touchdown.
Which a lot of guys have problems with, cause you are trained from day one to land on the centerline. But in a crab, to get the main gear on centerline, the view from the cockpit will be way off to one side of the runway.
Once it lands, it will slew around to heading down the runway, you just have to belive in physics.
A lot of guys will try and kick the crab out at the last moment, and thats when bad stuff happens.

"You know of them, thats even cooler."
Hoover was a bit of a god in the household. One of my dad's personal heroes in terms of piloting skills. Tex as up there as well. I heard about his stunt but never saw the video for years. For me, when I finally saw what he did with the Dash 80, well it made an impression.

Bob was on the BOD when I was at Evergreen, his Commander wore our paint scheme for many years. I had the chance to have a few Tanguareys with him in Los Angeles. Never had to worry about the bar closing, there was always another bottle in his briefcase.
Hell of a pilot and gentleman.

Cool.
I remember reading about the fiasco the FAA pulled on him sometime back. I never did hear the outcome.

as a younger man, while learning to fly, my instructor put me into a stall...
needless to say, i never completed the training.
I had no dog in the race after Edwards dropped out. At first. But she has pissed me off big time in the last three weeks.
Ba'al is probably long gone, but I agree with him. The way she behaved in our state was enough to make me vomit.

Interesting article about a guy who can withstand extreme cold. Climbed Everest only in shorts.

I do like that song.
Stalls is nothing but FUN FUN FUN!

Holy cow.
I've only been frightened once on a commercial flight. And that was landing at La Guardia in a heavy snow storm.

trying to fucking kill me or something?
If a commercial jet is going to crash why can't the passengers just parachute?
she's still a very, very good girl...
Nope.
I hate her. And she's surrounded by the old guard dem machine who are all assholes.
Would she be better than McBush? probably.
But putting Terry McAullife and crew back in charge is just exchanging one set of assholes for another.

I like the report when she asked why he was so angry then immediately said "Nevermind".
Grandpa's can be like that. Just drop the subject and go on.
Okay, I am being mean. McCain has every right to run for president despite his age. But he should be the finest 72 year old president out there health and mental fitness wise. It is a reality, people grow old and things change. America has the right to know they have an even tempered candidate who has not had the tendrils of decrepitude creep into their thinking processes.
Loopywanker's parents must still be out and the baby sitter must have passed out.

It can, to a degree.
Stall means the wings have lost lift, which is independent of the engine, look at gliders.

Just a thought. Don't want to provoke a flameup. But what if what you say is true? What if Hillary is showing herself to be a major prick? Why is that a bad thing? Maybe that's a good sign that she has what it takes to fight for what she believes in?
What's the current temperature in Alaska?
good fortune.

What's the strangest occurence in nature you've ever witnessed in Alaska?

Not at all.
Can't you attend? It should be fun. I figure the shouting should start about 10 minutes in on Friday night.
Then all the girls will start screaming that we're misogynists and that we should, "LEAVE POOR HILLARY ALONE!!!"
"Maybe that's a good sign that she has what it takes to fight for what she believes in?"
Key is the very last part of that. She is fighting to win. She does not seem to be fighting to lead the country.
How deep is the ocean between Alaska and Russia?
