					<description><![CDATA[I think Walz has embraced and intentionally tries to project the physical appearance of the midwest lovable grandpa.  Then he opens his mouth and out comes some of the nastiest, vile statements.

I wish the GOP/conservatives would move away from this new obsession with Walz.  VP candidates do not generally affect the overall vote except maybe in their home state, and MN is going to be blue no matter what.  The campaign should be focused on Harris and her avoidance of the press.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[RTF, if one is going to judge on &quot;optics,&quot; which many people do, both Trump and Vance will tower over their opponents in debates. Harris claims to be 5&#039;4&quot;, and 5&#039;7&quot; in heels; Walz is therefore maybe 5&#039;10&quot;, just looking at the photos of them together. Trump is over 6&#039;, and Vance is 6&#039; as well. Silly to judge on physical stature, but some people do.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I have a lawyer friend who had been on the Pepperdine Law Review. He said that members of Law Review are expected to publish articles and that is perhaps the biggest reason to be on Law Review for the publishing credit and subsequent attention, hopefully, to be gained.

That Obama had not published in his Law Review was a huge red flag in my friend&#039;s opinion.

Likewise he noted that Obama had received no offers for a Supreme Court clerkship which was also unusual for the President of the Harvard Law Review.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Re: Obama / Harvard Law Review

I recall a Letter to the Editor Obama wrote upon being voted in as the President of HLR that year. It had been fisked for grammar errors, such as:
__________________________________

&lt;i&gt;In the very first sentence Obama leads with his signature failing, one on full display in his earlier published work: his inability to make subject and predicate agree.

“Since &lt;b&gt;the merits&lt;/b&gt; of the Law Review’s selection policy &lt;b&gt;has been the subject of commentary&lt;/b&gt; for the last three issues,” wrote Obama, “I’d like to take the time to clarify exactly how our selection process works.”

https://thegrungefactor.wordpress.com/2012/04/27/early-obama-letter-confirms-inability-to-write/&lt;/i&gt;
__________________________________

Interestingly. that error has been fixed at the Harvard Law Record site:

&lt;i&gt;https://hlrecord.org/record-retrospective-obama-on-affirmative-action/&lt;/i&gt;

A similar error. Obama can&#039;t decide whether to treat &quot;half&quot; as singular or plural.
_________________________________

&lt;i&gt;Approximately &lt;b&gt;half&lt;/b&gt; of this first batch &lt;b&gt;is chosen&lt;/b&gt; solely on their performance on the writing competition; &lt;b&gt;the other half are selected&lt;/b&gt; on a weighted formula of 70 percent grades and 30 percent writing competition.&lt;/i&gt;
_________________________________

Here is an incomplete sentence:
_______________________________________

&lt;i&gt;Another distinctive Obama flaw is to allow a string of words to float in space.  Please note the unanchored phrase in italics at the end of this sentence:

“No editors on the Review will ever know whether any given editor was selected on the basis of grades, writing competition, or affirmative action, and &lt;b&gt;no editors who were selected with affirmative action in mind.&lt;/b&gt;”

https://thegrungefactor.wordpress.com/2012/04/27/early-obama-letter-confirms-inability-to-write/&lt;/i&gt;
_______________________________________  

There is an extraneous &quot;who&quot; in the bolded section, a syntax error which causes the sentence not to end properly and leaves the reader hanging.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[By the way, when watching the video as the officer is running to the roof, he signals to the other officer to give him a boost up. That signal was high enough to be picked up by the body cam--almost like he knew there was no audio-- so why did the audio magically appear a minute or so later.

Also there was speculation that this officer cut his hand when trying to climb up-- but the part he was boosted up to didn&#039;t have a metal exposed edge. So whose blood was found in the bathroom of this building, building 6. I haven&#039;t heard an explanation for that at this point.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[sdferr, that is a legitimate question-- along with a lot more questions that need to be answered.

How about what photographer shoots at 1/8000 of a second when he&#039;s just shooting pictures at a rally? Apparently that&#039;s what the NY Times photographer who got that lucky shot of the bullet had to have done. I wonder how many of Trump&#039;s rallies he had attended previously. That would require setting the ISO of 25 and an f stop of 45.

In the video I linked to Dr. Martenson showed a headline to about John Kerry saying farmers need to quick producing crops to reach net zero. That&#039;s not correct.

Kerry did say the world can&#039;t meet net zero without farmers significantly reducing emissions. You can extrapolate that we aren&#039;t going to met the net zero goal without a significant reduction in the amount of food grown. All of this should be very concerning to common sense people.

I still appreciate what Dr. Martenson is doing.]]></description>
