trump is serious!!!!!

Linkage rods not installed.

By choice? Seems like an easy fix.

Factory option...and no, the guts of the doors have to come apart to install them.

I suspect Jarl takes a kind of perverse pride in having this particular option on his car...

No...just haven't yet bothered to dig up the parts needed to fix it, since I rarely have anyone riding there.

Most police cruisers will have this option.

I love that meme Econo; as a 3rd generation German American whose 1st generation German American grandfather had to fight his own cousins in WWII, it really speaks to me - so I've shared it on my FB page. Thank you for sharing it here!

Interesting.

I'm assuming you have an ex-police car. I can't think of another reason to delete the latch actuator rods. Every P71 I've had (4) could be opened from the inside. It took me a while to find the door lock buttons on the front edge of the door above the hinges on the 2010, but everything was fine after that.

Unless you have a very early Crown Vic, the inner door panels come off by pulling UP, not toward the interior of the car. Same with the Grand Marquis and Town Car. Otherwise you'll snap off the plastic elbows. Have you ever done one?

I decided to skim through it...

I came across this:

Perhaps it’s that I don’t much like her friends – particularly Henry Kissinger, a man I hold in utter contempt blah blah blah

Hillary is friends with Henry Kissinger?

I didn't know that...

My opinion of her just went up...

Thanks for the 411 Jim....

Here's another one, Jim (and whoever else is interested). It's a follow-up of sorts to the previous essay, and a spirited defense of pragmatism and compromise as necessary features of our system of government.

If you liked the previous one at all, you'll probably like this one more. (Also, this one's considerably shorter. )

You've gotta--well at least *I'VE* gotta--love a blog post that quotes George Washington ("[Political parties] may now and then answer popular ends, they are likely in the course of time and things, to become potent engines, by which cunning, ambitious, and unprincipled men will be enabled to subvert the power of the people and to usurp for themselves the reins of government, destroying afterwards the very engines which have lifted them to unjust dominion."), John Paul Jones ("I trust that I have now made clear to you the tremendous responsibilities. We must do the best we can with what we have.") and Robert A. Heinlein ("Major Reid smiled. 'Mr. Salomon, I handed you a trick question. The practical reason for continuing our system is the same as the practical reason for continuing anything: It works satisfactorily.'")

(BTW, Jim Wright's dislike of Kissinger seems to be mostly based on the fact that Kissinger is responsible for extending the Vietnam war by helping Nixon sabotage the 1968 Paris Peace Talks, resulting in the death of an additional 20,000 American servicemen during the next four years. Since Wright is a retired career military man, you've got to at least respect where he's coming from there, even if you disagree.)

And now on to making SCOTUS great again. (Supreme Court Of Trump's United States)

[Bicycle Bill]

And now on to making SCOTUS great again. (Supreme Court Of Trump's United States)

If we thought wesw was obnoxious before, he's going to be totally insufferable now.  That is what's going to be the hardest to take once all this settles down and sinks in.
And it seems that he now has RayThom as a more open and active ally.

You can always count on Good Old Oakland...

OAKLAND (KTVU) -- Violence erupted in the Bay Area early Wednesday morning, during protests against Donald Trump's historic presidential victory.

A KTVU news crew driving through Downtown Oakland, saw several trash fires in the middle of the street.

Protesters set trash cans on fire, and vandalized several businesses, and shattered store fronts on Broadway. KTVU reporter Christien Kafton reported a Wells Fargo Bank between 12th and 13th Streets was vandalized.

Well, his supporters had to celebrate and let off a little steam; why are they assuming it's a negative reaction to his election?

[wesw]

trump supporters , male and female, were badly beaten and/or humiliated in CA in after trumps CA rallies during the primaries....

when I went to the rally here, my daughter and I stayed about an hour, outside, and we talked with a small group of protesters for most of that time. there were obvious instigators and leaders dressed in black, but we mostly talked to teenaged college girls who were paid a daily stipend to travel with trump.

I knew that he had just come from new York or jersey or somewhere in new England , so I figured that they had come that way too. I drew them out by talking about how high the tolls were..., they were with us then...., it cut into their allowance....

we went early and I took up for them when some jerk was yelling at them, tho the Nazi signs were just beginning to come out from the instigators....

they were all nice signs at first....

love trumps hate, and the like... I saw that some of them got really nasty later on the news, but I had talked to a few of the boys and girls earlier about the Nazi talk... I could tell that they felt bad about it....

but the three older guys in black were on guard and instigator duty. they were pros...

move on . org and soros I assumed and told one of the girls that..., she looked bashful but did not verify or deny it....

nice naïve kids, mostly...

there were gang thugs beating people in CA tho....

thanks DNC!!!!

Thanks George soros!!!!

you fucking bastard

he is probably responsible for Hillary s concussion and reid s and Pelosi s black eyes too...

dogs to heel they are...

bastards....

if Pelosi goes away the day will be better.

but I can t always get what I want.....
