Democrat snipers keep firing shots a Kavanaugh. Trouble is they only have blanks. No witnesses or other proof just fake stories. DEMONRAT DIRTY TRICKS!

If they grow a spine and stand up to them now, there won’t be any future Democrat nominees for a long, long time.

"I.45
"I began this paper by pointing out that there are inequalities and anomalies in the material world, some of which, like the obliquity of the ecliptic and the consequent inequality of the day's length, cannot be redressed at all. Others, like the caprices of sunshine and rainfall in different climates, can be mitigated, but must on the whole be endured. I am very far from asserting that the inequalities and anomalies of human society are strictly parallel with those of material nature. I fully admit that we are under an obligation to control nature so far as we can. But I think I have shown that the Socialist scheme cannot be relied upon to control nature, because it refuses to obey her. Socialism attempts to vanquish nature by a front attack. Individualism, on the contrary, is the recognition, in social politics, that nature has a beneficent as well as a malignant side. The struggle for life provides for the various wants of the human race, in somewhat the same way as the climatic struggle of the elements provides for vegetable and animal life—imperfectly, that is, and in a manner strongly marked by inequalities and anomalies. By taking advantage of prevalent tendencies, it is possible to mitigate these anomalies and inequalities, but all experience shows that it is impossible to do away with them. All history, moreover, is the record of the triumph of Individualism over something which was virtually Socialism or Collectivism, though not called by that name. In early days, and even at this day under archaic civilisations, the note of social life is the absence of freedom. But under every progressive civilisation, freedom has made decisive strides—broadened down, as the poet says, from precedent to precedent. And it has been rightly and naturally so.
I.46
"Freedom is the most valuable of all human possessions, next after life itself. It is more valuable, in a manner, than even health. No human agency can secure health; but good laws, justly administered, can and do secure freedom. Freedom, indeed, is almost the only thing that law can secure. Law cannot secure equality, nor can it secure prosperity. In the direction of equality, all that law can do is to secure fair play, which is equality of rights but is not equality of conditions. In the direction of prosperity, all that law can do is to keep the road open. That is the Quintessence of Individualism, and it may fairly challenge comparison with that Quintessence of Socialism we have been discussing. Socialism, disguise it how we may, is the negation of Freedom. That it is so, and that it is also a scheme not capable of producing even material comfort in exchange for the abnegations of Freedom, I think the foregoing considerations amply prove."
EDWARD STANLEY ROBERTSON
An examination of the history of nations reveals the long and arduous struggle by human beings for individual liberty--from kings, from masters, from whatever description fitted those other human beings who gained power and exercised it over their fellow citizens.

By whatever semantic maneuver those power holders chose to identify themselves, no matter how benevolent they purported to be, the end was the same: some individuals in the society or group were denied their Creator-endowed rights to be free.

And we won’t need to get them to lie.

How about Oklahoma, Texas and all the states south of the Mason-Dixon line form a new country called the Free States of America. I know, it’s been tried before. I am just angry and frustrated. Carry on.

Unlikely. Even if they tried, the media ignores. Witness the woman that Ellison beat the tar out of.

Dems don’t care how vile their nominees are as long as they advance the destruction of the US.

What an idiotic premise. Is this your posting your own blog? There is a forum for Vanity postings. Take it over there.

Sounds like Boehner always saying, “There will be consequences,” when the Democrats plays some trick. Of course, there never were any consequences.

Democrats are pit bulls when defending their agenda. Republicans want to get along with them and the Leftist media that hates Republicans, so they cave. The GOP voted for RGB, a Leftist ACLU lawyer, proving they have no principles.

"Republicans are taking notes for future Democrat nominees"

A lot of good that does considering the DemonRats OWN the media.

You are dreaming.

Unless POTUS DJT can be cloned multiple times and elected to Congress, his term will likely be remembered as the last gasp of Americanism and capitalism before the nation plunged off the cliff into the abyss of leftists totalitarianism.

They (GOPes) have no stomach for the fight. They do not know how to fight.

They are the Kerenskys and the Social Democrats of America facing modern Lenins and Hitlers. I fear they have no chance in that contest.

Only so they do a better job of taking a fall. They are the COP: Controlled Opposition Party.

Trump needs to get six more years of nominees through.

They will do nothing.

They always do nothing.

The whole Congress is a scam. If this isn’t a shiny example of that, then people are not paying attention. They ALL want to get Trump out of the White House so they can get back to their “normal” life.

I’ve never advocated the overthrow of our government. But I am coming close to wondering what if that could be worse than what we have?
