Corrente Is Back
Corrente popped up when I checked at 5pm.

"Все счастливые семьи похожи друг на друга, каждая несчастливая семья несчастлива по-своему."
"Кто что ни говори, а подобные происшествия бывают на свете, - редко, но бывают."
"A person who has a cat by the tail knows a whole lot more about cats than someone who has just read about them."
Mark Twain
"There are two novels that can change a bookish 14-year old's life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs."
"The presence of those seeking the truth is infinitely to be preferred to the presence of those who think they've found it."

OT again, the Senate defeated Mark Udall’s amendment removing the “indefinite detention without trial” provisions by a vote of 61-37. It’s beginning to look like your thought about Posse Comitatus is not dispositive of the matter. Indeed, something is rotten, and it ain’t in the state of Denmark. Now it’s up to Zero to veto, and then to create a (wince) “compromise” …
No one wants to be ‘soft on terrorism’, and they may not expect the thing to pass into law. More and more Congress is voting on things that never become law, and they know it when they propose them. If we had a sane Supreme Court it wouldn’t matter, but the ‘Synod’ is so flaky, you can’t depend on them to rule in the obvious manner.
