Drain the sewer of the floaters. Calling it a Swamp is being overly generous.

Ryan has to go and Turtle Face needs to be replaced with someone with nads.

The GOP gutless, self-serving excrement either get on the Trump train or get replaced with patriots willing to MAGA.

The Amnesty Senators MUST be removed from office

Corker, Hatch, Heller and Flake in 2018

Graham and Alexander in 2020

Murkowsky, Hoeven and Rubio in 2022

Failure to do so will cost us our country

I can only think of a handful who are worth keeping.

I can think of 100 that should be tarred, feathered and hung by their necks from sturdy tree branches until their necks snap.

Who in the world reads these books these congressmen supposedly write and who gives a flip about what they have to say. They are all so puffed up with themselves.

No one reads them, but they don't depend on real book sales.

Their publisher prints hundreds of thousands of them, and ships them to a warehouse. Then, PACs and political slime balls who want to purchase Congressional influence and favors "buy" tens of thousands of books, in bulk.

It is essentially a bribe, paid for via a "legitimate" vehicle (book sales).

Been going on for decades.

"If this was our Faustian bargain, then it was not worth it," Flake writes in "Conscience of a Conservative."

There used to a progressive/left poster here with that 'Conscience of a Conservative' screen name...was that you, Jeff?

Excellent. This is exactly what needs to happen in 2018: lots of Swamp draining via the party primary process...

"If ultimately our principles were so malleable as to no longer be principles, then what was the point of political victories in the first place?"

That is our question to YOU, numbnuts!

There are only eight pubs up for reelection in 2018.

Flake AZ
Wicker, MI
Fischer IA
Heller NV
Corker TN
Cruz TX
Hatch UT
Barrasso MT

Don’t know much about some. Only Heller is in a D leaning state.

What? I'm in for 10 dozen gross cases of books. Here's my check. Deliver them to the town recycling center.

Any resemblance between Jeff Flake and a Conservative is purely co-incendendental.

Wicker MS. He should go too. Where the heck is he? Maybe hiding in a bunker somewhere with my disappointment Tim Scott.

How can we arrange by next year to have the repeal of the 27th Amendment on the ballot? I think we could do it if we could get it on. That would stir up D.C. And drain the swamp.

You’re all correct. I read the list then typed it. Should have double checked.

OK folks, I keep posting these links. Use them in your respective races in the upcoming years. But for vette6387, your perspective is fuel for those outside of your beleaguered state.

“Well, you have the Mormon Troika up for re-election next year.”

Why would anyone vote in a cultist? They’ve already proven they lack discernment.

I believe that is the method that Hillary uses to funnel and/or launders money, i.e., writes her books and then cooks the books.
