This could be a Sunday where we get the popcorn ready early.

Ran Paul said Thursday or Friday that he would eliminate FOUR Federal Departments - Education, H.U.D., Commerce and one other one - What a great start to fixing this country.

Wayne LaPierre doing battle with wanna be KING and 1% (who does not pay his fair share) Doomberg. This should be worth paying for to watch.

Morning AB, All.

Thank you AB for posting this thread on this fine Palm Sunday morn.

As might be expected, I will be singing this morning. Also singing for upcoming Holy Thursday, Good Friday and Saturday’s Easter Vigil.

I shall return after mass so please, all yon contributors of fine thought, including Kabar, post your thoughts so that I may, with tired vocal chords, read of your wisdom.

I suggest we get a closer look at this Messina character on This Week. Somebody on Obeyme's team has an extreme amount of political smarts, and I suspect Axelrod, Messina, or Plouffe. "Political smarts" in that they

1)used political correctness to leverage the race issue.

2)realized only Chicago ward style politics played out on a national scale in key swing states would re-elect Obeyme and used new and questionable fundraising techniques to finance such full time staff in those key areas.

3)Blinded the media while shlushing stimulus funds to unions and green energy friends who returned the favors and the cash in the form of campaign contributions.

4)realized the timing and importance of LoFo voting block

5)beautifully orchestrated the Limbaugh doctrine in which he appears to always be on the outside fighting Washington even though he is responsible for all he's fighting against. He deflects all responsibility and refused to govern and, by-and-large, got away with it.

Sorry to say, somebody is responsible for these generally new strategies (except for the shlush funding which is as old as politics itself).

Someone played Republicans, media, and the electorate and I want to know who that someone is. Messina is one of the suspects.

Wallace: I’m having a hard time figuring out where you are, Senator Rand. I can’t pigeon-hole you into the political spectrum.

Rand Paul Up.

We don’t need new principles (commenting on Rubio’s “America still works”)

Amnesty, Wallace asks about his opposition to E-verify. He wants Border security first, vote on every year.

He’s not opposed to the data-base check, not eligible to vote not eligible for welfare. Wants govt to do it, not burden business.

On GOP getting hispanic vote by supporting amnesty, he want’s “Trust but Verify” program. Doesn’t trust any president to handle border security, wants Congress to deal with it every year

Wallace asking him about legalizing drugs. Prisons full of non-violent criminals. Doesn’t think drug abuse is a good thing.

Supreme Court on same-sex, Should SCOTUS strike down DOMA? Thinks states should have the right to decide the issue. DOMA provides protection for the states, make federal laws more neutral. Marriage should not be part of the tax code

On filibuster regarding drones, letter from Holder does president have authority to kill Americans on US soil? Drones killing people not engaged in combat. Americans corresponding with terrorists should get arrested and day in court, not blown up in a public setting.

Is there room for a presidential candidate who is to the left of Obama on some issues and on the right on other issues. (hinting at Paul candidacy)

Your plan would balance the budget in 5 years, it got 18 out of 100 votes, is it out of the mainstream?

He wants to be building bridges here in the US rather than Egypt and thinks the Senate is out of touch with the positions of the American people.

My biggest fear for last election was that it would be the last.

Time will tell if it is true.

However, if we get, by the grace of God, another chance, then I pray that Sarah is our nominee. The pundits say she doesn’t have a chance, but after numerous tries with a RINO let us gather around ONE conservative this time (not Newt, Rick Rand or anyone else) and see if this country will go for a conservative once and for all.

If so, we get a breather.

If not, then we can resign our hopes for this once special nation to the ash heap of Eurosocialist history. [Re-posted from last week]


Things are getting so bad that a day might come when a Eurosocialist nanny state might look like a serious upgrade over what we have. Or what our children and grandchildren have.
