She’s . . . against making the same money only if you do as good a job?
Or has she decided she’s now a Trumper, too?

DCSCA (797bc0) — 11/2/2016 @ 1:07 amIt’s entirely reasonable that Hillary Clinton slammed Trump for that “Donald Trump’s equal pay plan for women: “You’re gonna make the same if you do as good a job”
After all, it’s deplorable, really deplorable, of Trump to say that, because it makes employers that don’t pay women the same for equal work look bad. Employers like the Clinton Foundation, the Clinton Global Initiative, the Clinton Campaign, etc, etc, etc…

Steve57 (0b1dac) — 11/2/2016 @ 4:31 am@Steve57:And yes I know Fred Thompson is dead but he’d still be better than what we’ve got.
Fred Thompson didn’t beat anybody when he ran for President in 2008 and didn’t even bother in 2012. He died 7 months before the primary.
I don’t know why we are still relitigating the primaries. Not one conservative, except maybe Pence, is on any of the four biggest tickets. The Libertarian ticket thinks Hillary is great and has done nothing wrong with her emails, and never would.
The electorate is not particularly interested in conservatism. They’ve made that very clear this year. Conservative principles cannot be advanced by running conservatives and losing elections.
This is the election you have. These are the candidates you have. Only the winner of the election will be in any position to advance conservative principles. And that’s only if they want to. They will only want to if conservatives can deliver votes. That way conservatives will, once in a while, get a small victory on something.
The Left figured this out 50 years ago and now thoroughly dominates our culture, but Party of Stupid thinks that by purging the less pure we’ll somehow get such wonderful candidates that everyone will want to vote for them. Insane.

In 1000 A.D. the Muslims invaded what is now Afghanistan. They wiped out the entire population of the country. Nobody did that before, not even the Mongols. The mountain range between Afghanistan and Pakistan is now known as the Hindu Kush. The Slaughter of the Hindus.
Between 1000 A.D. and 1500 A.D. the Muslims killed between 50 million and 80 million Hindus. The Hindus were not “people of the book.” That means the Muslims did not recognize them as recipients of divine revelation of monotheism
So they had to convert or die. Admittedly this rule was not consistently enforced. I don’t know of any rule that is. But the Indians had to maintain their martial skills because they had no choice.
Consequently, I’m a fan of the Indian Ghada and Indian clubs. These practices have stood the test of time.

Steve57 (0b1dac) — 11/2/2016 @ 7:52 amBut candidates need to be wary of obvious provable violations. Such as a $100 contribution from a corporate account. That’s an easy way to get into a “scandal” and it may have come from the opposition. Campaigns have people whose only job is to screen contributions for legality.
nk (dbc370) — 11/2/2016 @ 7:57 amnk, D’Souza was cheating on his wife at the same time he donated $5000 in her name to a Republican running for the Senate in NY. When his infidelity became public knowledge, his wife refused to fill out the donations paperwork, and he filled in the blanks for her. He repeated elements of this process several times for other donors, all of which allowed the Democrats to use the powers of government to silence him. And his wife got to use those same powers to extract a little revenge at his sentencing. So yes, he is rather stupid.

In fact I’m sure of it.
Steve57 (0b1dac) — 11/2/2016 @ 8:09 amIf you think you can avoid consequences just by not doing what D’Souza did, you need to educate yourself.
The rules are so complicated no one can even say what they are, or know if they are in compliance. The people who get to determine if you are in compliance, and what happens to you if you are not, are the same ones who get to invent the rules and the same ones who get to say what they mean.
A few weeks ago Mrs. Clinton was the “safe hands” candidate. If she wins, it now appears hers will be an embattled and investigated presidency from day one. Moderates will flee. Republicans will find it hard to cooperate with her.
She will be forced back on the hard left of her party. The same who already are drawing up “blacklists” of potential appointees suspected of sympathy for the private sector. The same who hesitate least about using government power to attack enemies (see Exxon). The same who are most comfortable relying on administrative diktat to impose policies the public doesn’t support and never voted for.
Her party’s most ferocious warriors will run the Clinton administration because they’re the ones willing to be most unhinged in savaging her enemies. It might seem far-fetched now that President Obama, after Election Day, would try to clear President Clinton’s path by issuing a pardon for offenses committed while secretary of state, but crazier miscalculations have been made by the players in this drama.

The Mongols came about 220 years later. And the Moslems came about 150 to 300 plus years earlier.
And did they wipe out the entire population?
Does Kush mean “slaughter?” In what langauge? I wonder about that?
Now the name might possibly date from about that time.
Sammy Finkelman (3fda43) — 11/2/2016 @ 8:32 amGabriel, you are correct. I would add that the levers of power that are most useful to the statists in this regard are the regulatory rules ginned up by the agencies. In the never-never-land of regulatory procedures, the presumption of innocence doesn’t apply, and the defendant is at the mercy of those who have brought the charges in the first place. And if a defendant in one of these “civil” proceedings should appeal, the appeal is first handled by a judge appointed by the agency and should the agency lose the appeal, it can ignore the appeal. And these civil proceedings routinely result in the confiscation of property, ruinous fines and imprisonment if the defendant should fail to comply in every demand. It is “civil” only because this fiction allows the agency to deny citizens their constitutional rights. It is only at the point where a citizen faces bankruptcy or imprisonment that the issue can be brought into what used to be mainstream legal practice in this country. And a successful appeal to the Federal Courts usually just results in the agency being asked to review their procedures, and try again.

happyfeet (28a91b) — 11/2/2016 @ 8:44 amThis is something that could be true, or close to the truth. But I’d check it out.
There was certainly a lot of forced conversions in the first few hundred years all over and sometimes later too, The ones who did it often weren’t quite following the precepts of Islam, (which regards forced conversions as invalid.) Maybe they didn’t even quite settle on what e precepts of Islam were.
More often it was legal privileges and disabilities to led to the cpnversion of most of the population, and it took some time. Of course, I’m talking about where “people of the book” lived.(which includes Zoroastrians – Parsees in India.)
In places west of Iran, the language of the people changed because the Koran could not be translated at all. (now they have some translations, but these are always described as a help – the Arabic is printed also in anything sanctioned) In Persia, and points east, Islam functioned without the common people knowing Arabic. Also with the Kurds who spoke a language similar to Persian.
Otherwise, west of Persia, only people who remained Christian continued to speak the old language they had – like the “Assyrians” in Iraq, or the Copts in Egypt, partly because their prayers and Bible translations were in their own language. Jews eventually spoke Arabic in those countries after about 300 years.
In Egypt, the Copts forgot old Egyptian, and only their prayers and Bibles were in Coptic. In Spain, Moslems must have been as discrete group, I am not sure. There are just a few words in Spanish that come from Arabic, like maybe alcohol. (that came into English from Latin)
The Pareees in India also forgot their original langage but kept their books in it.
Makes sense, and peace would have been dfficult, because Hinduism was beyond the pale for Moslems.
Sammy Finkelman (3fda43) — 11/2/2016 @ 8:52 amThat’s interesting that Muslims have a history of violence and slaughter.

44. Steve57 (0b1dac) — 11/2/2016 @ 8:41 am
The first verse of the bopok of Esther says that the empire of Ahasuerus (Artaxerxes I, in my opinion) extended from “Hodu” to “Kush”
http://www.mechon-mamre.org/p/pt/pt3301.htm
This is often tarnslated as “India to Ethiopia” and Kush is aname for Ethiopia (actually more the Sudan – the geogrpahical area it applied to has moved a little bit)
But there was also an opinion by the time of Rashi, (1040-1105) and actually in he tiem of the Genorah (before about 250 CE) that “Hodu” and “Kush” were right next to each other.
Doesn’t really make sense, but somebody thought so, and that does sound like a bit like “Hindu Kush”
http://www.agudah5t.org/files/Machat_shel_Yad-Purim.pdf
Now you fall into that error, if there was already a name like Hindu Kush floating around in Babylonia in the 200s.
Sammy Finkelman (3fda43) — 11/2/2016 @ 9:04 am* Now you could fall into that error…
But there could be an entirely different explanation of where this understanding of what “Hodu” to “Kush” comes from.
Sammy Finkelman (3fda43) — 11/2/2016 @ 9:07 amI think you are incorrect there Steve57. It’s a “Pod” of Hindus and a “Murder” of Moslems. You’re welcome.

The zakat, which Muslims had to pay their ruler was a lighter tax than the non-Muslim jizya. So while conversion was technically allowed, it was often forbidden because, greed.

Steve57 (0b1dac) — 11/2/2016 @ 10:12 am@Rev. Hoagie: Seems the geniuses that work at State failed to use the Cyrillic alphabet.
That’s not why. RESET in the Roman alphabet is gibberish in Cyrillic. They used the Cyrillic alphabet correctly, but they got the translation wrong because they didn’t work with a Russian speaker (like, say, Condoleeza Rice…)
Americans think of “reset” as something like “reboot”. Russians, not having as much access to computers, see “reset” buttons on things like circuit breakers, and that’s why they translated “reset” as “overcharge”.
Gabriel Hanna (64d4e1) — 11/2/2016 @ 10:13 amI think the Russian equivalent for “reset” as Hillary meant it would be “sbros” which is literally “drop”. At least from what I can find in Google Translate.
I can read and write in Cyrillic but I have learned very little Russian.
Gabriel Hanna (64d4e1) — 11/2/2016 @ 10:18 amIn case anyone is interested, and I doubt anyone much is, I used to be able to read Cyrillic. Russian ships. I had to know what stinking Russian ship I was looking at.
