Hillary Clinton struggles to hold on to a lead in national polling.

Can't hold a lead and a railing at the same time?

Did you have something good teed up?

There was, after coming up with that initial comment but before posting it, a momentary internal struggle to decide if even I would be so crass. But what do you know? I would.

[commodious the pulchritudinous]

a momentary internal struggle

I don't believe there's a moment to be found between pounding F5, pasting your comment, and hitting submit. Not one, not even half a one.

[Ted S.]

It's about Hillary. Thus it cannot be crass.

As a young boy in Vienna I had an affair with a charming young women with the last name Krabappel. Is there any relation?

[Juvenile Bluster]

I've been calling her Crandall.

Dead Hillary would be an improvement over Live Hillary in the Oval Office.

[You Sound Like a Prog (MJG)]

I'd vote for her. It? Dead Hillary.

[S1]

According to my unscientific poll, voters trust Dead Hillary more than Live Hillary by a 2-1 margin.

[grrizzly]

Until last week, the choice was between Live Hillary and Orangutan. Obviously, Orangutan was the preferred choice. But after Clinton was loaded into the van, the choice became more interesting: Sack of Potatoes vs. Orangutan. I may still go with Orangutan. But Dead Hillary vs. Orangutan, that's tough.

[Playa Manhattan.]

Dead Hillary would be slightly more functional than Gabby Giffords.

[Rufus The Monocled]

A comment too far!

I'm glad Playa gave it a shot.

Fuck it. Trump had better win now.

I had to deal with some dear friends who have managed to convince themselves that Trump is literally Hitler this weekend. Why the hell is apocalyptic thinking so popular with so many people? I wonder if they will acknowledge that the world hasn't in fact come to an end if Trump ends up as president?

[Hitler]

It's okay Zeb. My intelligent cousin went nuclear on me about not buying into the climate change hysteria and I found out in the process he's basically a Luddite that agrees with all the crap you'd expect to hear from a Vermont hippie.

[Zeb]

To make matters worse, to change the subject I got into a wrestling match with another friend and tore something in my chest. Which is very uncomfortable. Yes, alcohol was involved.

"Why the hell is apocalyptic thinking so popular with so many people?"

My theory is that many people feel like they MUST have some battle to fight that will determine the fate of humanity. So some of them pretend that Trump is the next Hitler. Others imagine that they're channeling Martin Luther King by whining about the Oscars being too white. And then a handful of them scream about "investing in green energy" and convince themselves that they're literally saving the world.

HRC is still going to be President. Or maybe Donald Trump.

There is no hope for Johnson, and Stein's a loonie moonbat.

The question is which of the VP's is better: Tim Kaine or Mike Pence.

When the head is bonkers, the neck is the next best hope.

I don't think Mike Pence would be that bad. I would have preferred Mitch Daniels.

As I pointed out a few days ago when this story popped up, the real scandal is that the CFPB is taking credit for busting these crooks when - as the article points out - the LA Times broke the story three years ago and Wells Fargo has been firing people for this for several years. So where was the CFPB? Helping Wells Fargo hide what they had done from becoming public knowledge?

[Playa Manhattan.]

Yes.
The City of Los Angeles had already reached a settlement with them. It all stayed hush hush though.

The executive responsible for overseeing this part of Wells Fargo's business just jumped ship with a $100 million + golden parachute. Time to claw it back and lock her up.

This wasn't just a few bad employees. It was over 5000 people. This was an important part of their business model in the last 5 years, and responsible for a large portion of the increase in share price. It's straight up securities fraud.

Even if you count each season as a different "anthology", there's only five stories. There's "Everyone Is Ghosts", "the Decent One", "New Orleans Hogwarts", "Creepy Clown Villain Replaced With Pussy Rich Kid Halfway Through" and "One I Haven't Seen Because I Stopped Watching".

Alabama Man is looking to take down Florida Man in weird news story grudgematch.

Alabama Man critically injured when bird feeder pole, hose shoved into rectum

Investigators believe the man was drinking alcohol with Bragg and Vaughn on the front porch of their shared residence.

The victim, a 39-year-old homeless man, was renting a room from Bragg and Vaughn, Wade said. The victim's wife was not at home at the time. The couple had only been at the home for about four days.

Wade said the victim fell from the porch, on top of a bird feeder and into dog feces. The man then took his clothes off to remove the feces.

At that time, Bragg inserted the metal bird feeder pole and a garden water hose into the victim's rectum, causing severe internal injuries, Wade said. Vaughn apparently watched this as it happened.

Seriously, Alabama, trying to out-Florida-Man Florida is not going to be good for your health.

After Years of War, Celebrities Find a Syrian Group to Back

More than two dozen actors, singers and other prominent people have signed a petition urging the Nobel Prize committee to awardfrus its 2016 Peace Prize to a group of volunteer rescue workers toiling in cities across the war-torn country. The move draws attention to both the horror of the conflict and the growing willingness of well-known Americans to adopt it as a cause c?l?bre.

The White Helmets, also known as the Syria Civil Defense, are a group of volunteer emergency workers who rush to the scene of airstrikes in civilian areas of cities like Aleppo, which was once the country's largest but is now divided between rebel groups and the regime of President Bashar al-Assad. His central government has rained bombs on citizens for years, and the White Helmets say they have pulled more than 60,000 people alive from the rubble.

[Crusty Juggler]

The announcement that Netflix would produce a documentary about the White Helmets, and the drive to award them the Nobel Peace Prize, answered that question for public figures who wanted to get involved.

"The White Helmets are probably one of the most inspiring stories that has come out of the Syrian conflict, so it is a very easy group to endorse and stand behind because they are real life heroes on the ground," said Lina Sergie Attar, a writer who founded a humanitarian organization that works with refugees on the Turkey-Syria border.

Kassem Eid is a Syrian asylum seeker in Germany who spent two years touring the United States with the Syrian-American Council campaigning for the United States to act against the Assad regime. The experience left him deeply cynical about American policy makers. But he said he believed in the work of the White Helmets, and thought that actors, writers and singers could perhaps do some good.

"I have more faith in the devil than in politicians," he said. "But movie stars and celebrities don't have elections to win, so they can say whatever they want or whatever they believe is right."

[Rufus The Monocled]

Celebrities are stupid. And politicians listening to celebrities and giving them an actual place at the table are beyond stupid and irresponsible.

[DJF]

From Vancouver, our war on Perfidious Wealthy Chinamen continues: City of Vancouver announces vacant home tax

The specific rate of the tax has yet to be determined, but will be in the range of 0.5 to 2.0 per cent of the assessed value of each home, she said.

That would be between $5,000 and $20,000 for a million dollar home.

It will only apply to homes that are empty year round and not primary residences ? that is, "secondary properties that are business holdings," said Robertson.

Snowbirds and other residents who live only part of the year in Vancouver would not be taxed, stressed Robertson.

Jesus Christ, stop pussyfooting and just start seizing Chinese property for redistribution. Fucking idiot mayor and his retards.

I don't think the city has thought this through. Empty houses use no water and very little electricity, produce no trash, and rarely generate calls to the fire or police departments. What exactly do they hope to gain by forcing people to fill every house?

Affordability!

[Pan Zagloba]

We lack rental spaces and real estate is expensive. Clearly it's because Rich Chinamen are buying up all the houses and leaving them empty.

1 Dead, 2 Injured as Good Samaritans Save Mom, Baby From Attackers Outside Wal-Mart in Kansas

One of them, a 33-year-old Air Force veteran, was shot multiple times when one of the attackers, later identified as John W. Simmons III, pulled out a gun.

The second rescuer had a gun of his own and he fired back, killing Simmons, police said.

Rivers of blood flow down streets of Dhaka after Eid animal sacrifices

DHAKA, Bangladesh ? Large-scale animal sacrifices marking the Islamic festival of Eid al-Adha combined with heavy rains have turned the streets of Bangladesh's capital into rivers of blood.

Muslims traditionally mark Eid al-Adha, or the Feast of Sacrifice, by slaughtering livestock. Usually a goat, sheep or a cow is killed to commemorate Prophet Ibrahim's test of faith.

She was reported doing over 70 miles per hour and swerving onto sidewalks.

Police were also told that she was going the wrong way down traffic lanes.

Officers were able to cut her off and force Carroll to stop, however she refused to get out of her car.

The cops were then forced to break in her car window. However, once the glass was smashed, Carroll told police he had a gun.

With their weapons drawn, police told Carroll not to grab for her gun.

She then said she did not in fact have a gun.

A Brief Note About Hillary Clinton's Medical "Incident" on 9/11 2016

Nina takes a deep-dive into a scandal she previously thought was just a Right Wing Nut Job conspiracy theory ? Hillary Clinton's "Health Scandal

Late yesterday morning (and only after watching multiple video clips that I will share below) I came to the sudden and yes, shocking realization that I'd been as they say in the business "completely fucking wrong" about both the severity and potential importance of the Hillary Clinton heath scandal. Of course, my first clue probably should have been when major media outlets began firing employees for merely discussing Clinton's health "issues" in a manner that in no way, shape or form appeared to be ethically "out of bounds" by any objective measure of the things in the media that do get published without anyone being fired.
