As Jess and Uncle Lar have pointed out, the Left only seeks 'compromise' and 'bipartisanship' when they think it suits their endgame. We're not falling for it again. We were willing to play by the rules, until the Left purposely and willingly threw the rulebook out the window. Now, we've finally woken up and realized that what we thought was a boxing match has become a streetfight.<br /><br />So be it. They set the terms, but they're going to be very surprised when they find out we're now ready and willing to meet them on those terms. I do not think it will end well for them.

Many of their accomplishments toward that goal included decisions by a corrupted Supreme Court. <br /><br />At this time, regardless of Democrat responses, Republicans should use everything within their power to put justices on the Supreme Court that believe the Constitution is not a document that needs translating, and understand removing the government from meddling is a very good thing.

I lay that blame squarely where it belongs, on the shoulders of one Senator Harry Reid. For eight long years the Republicans tried their best to submit legislation, six of them with a House majority, and in every case Reid as Senate Majority leader killed those bills. As Senate leader he had that power. I highly suspect that was the main reason for his retirement, that he saw the handwriting on the wall and could not stand the thought of losing that power as the Dems became the Senate minority.<br />Will note in passing that Reid entered service as a senator a poor man, by law earned only his senate pay, and yet managed to retire a multi millionaire. Odd that.Uncle Larhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04008207593205949098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6244999628674918029.post-10149291596809456462017-02-01T10:48:30.549-06:002017-02-01T10:48:30.549-06:00It must really suck for democrats to find the Bide...It must really suck for democrats to find the Biden Rule used against them. As it will suck to find Harry Reid's nuking of the filibuster in order to stack the DC Circuit used against them.<br /><br />Gorsuch will face a confirmation hearing that will make Robert Bork's look like a walk in the park. But unless he has serious skeleton's in his closet, or an attractive black clerk who can be flipped and convinced to talk about pubic hairs on camera for days on end, he will be the next justice.<br /><br />Democrats thought that, with the election of "THE ONE" eight years ago, they were going to finally have the one party state they had been working towards since FDR's first term. And, as any two year old can show you, if they don't get what they want, they will make everyone suffer.<br /><br />Buckle up and pass the popcorn, it's going to be a fun ride.Jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13316633198463498761noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6244999628674918029.post-83914728624655550402017-02-01T09:23:20.282-06:002017-02-01T09:23:20.282-06:00My take on the recent election is a little differe...My take on the recent election is a little different from most. What I saw was the rank and file of both parties trying to nominate somebody outside of their party's establishment. The Republicans managed with Trump. The Democrat establishment resorted to power games to squash Sanders. The Republican rank and file turned out to elect their outsider. The Democrat rank and file stayed home, or voted for the only outsider they were offered ... even if he were from the other party.<br /><br />Now the Democrat establishment may be the loudest about no learning a goddamned thing from this election, at least for now. But if the Republican establishment plays business as usual in Congress the Republicans could be in trouble too. I shall be watching the jockeying in Washington and the mid-term electioneering with interest.<br /><br />Of course if the economy recovers under Trump - whether he has anything to do with it or not - the level of discontent with the party establishments may drop. Or the electorate may turn out to be so fed up with Business As Usual that we see some real upheaval.<br /><br />C. S. P.

People casting votes to confirm him included... Obama, Clinton, Biden. If he's so horrible, why'd they vote to confirm earlier? Were they stupid and ignorant then, or stupid and ignorant now? What, specifically, has he done to make them change their minds?Rolfhttp://www.thestarscameback.comnoreply@blogger.com
