Good to see Rand Paul stepping up.
Came home too soon....21 degrees on Lookout Mountain!
Thanks for thread AB. We finally were told, grudgingly, the fellow golfers with O: Course owner and Houston Astros owner Jim Crane, U.S. Trade Rep Ron Kirk, Chicago crony Eric Whitaker(lives next to Calypso Louie Farrakhan, got a $6 Million grant from O to fund his job at U Chicago Hospital oncve held by Moochelle, offered Rev Wright $150K to get quiet, etc.), “businessmen” Anthony Chase and Milton Carroll. Absent: bodymen Reggie Love or Kal Penn. We already knew Tiger Woods’ ex-swing coach Butch Harmon was there.
“The White House has kept details about the weekend to a minimum.” Meaning: “Secret!”
...well, you have both your liberal and conservative there.
Fair and Balanced.
Wallace is talking up a Hagal inevitability.
The code is that there will be some sort of pro forma bengazi data release and that will save face for rinos to unstick hagels nomination.
IOW just a dog and pony show.
DNC Dave got McCain so the RINO rat bastard loser can jump ugly on Cruz some more.
Good Morning All!
Thanks for the thread AB.
Gotcher little snowstorm first thing today.
“Hate” to belabor the Golf Outing team but these two “businessmen” are African American fat-cat big timers based in Houston (probably guests of Astros owner, as a pay-off for their big Obama campaign support).
Milton Carroll is a Houston oil baron and tied to Haliburton, makes tons of money. http://www.forbes.com/profile/milton-carroll/
Anthony Chase is former CEO and now law professior. Highly connected in Houston.
http://www.houston.org/greater-houston-partnership/about-us/bios.asp?bioID=128159
This is just a pay-off, writ large. And at our expense.
Graham grim. He's wiped that SEG off his face.

Some “believe,” some know better, they’re all scum.
Pansy Grahamnesty
Graham calling Hagel “radical and unqualified” reads off laundry list of leftist, pro-moslem positions.
Now moving on to Bengazi, starting with who took the term Alkida out of Susan Rice talking points.
Where are the transcripts of interviews with the survivers, never released to the press, CIA and FBI never talked to each other....much more on the topic DIO?
Brennen topic
5 days to deal with “sequester” want’s “bipartisan” effort to stop it. Accuses Ears of lying in SOTU.
Wallace reading chart of disaster caused by the sequestration cuts, Graham fires back that Obama started the sequestration.
Obamacare causing the problem and needs to be defunded instead of destroying the finest military in the world.
Hillary blind in testimony.
Way too much to cover at my typing speed
Just woke up and turned on FNS in time to hear Graham say he was ‘so disappointed in the Commander-in-Chief’.
AWwwwwwwwwwwwwww.
What’s the deal with Mc and Cheezy? They haven’t missed a Sunday morning in weeks. They are getting more face time than anyone else.
==
Rand Paul up now laying out the truth about sequester
Clarifying position on drones attacking Americans domestically, Wallace wonders why a judge should “second guess” the commander in chief, disagrees with both Obama and Graham on the concept.
Obama won’t answer “Can you kill Americans on American soil” question.
FNS comes on at 10 AM here. Might actually relent and watch to see the accounting Rand Paul gives of himself. I like him. Want to see and know more.
FNS
Wallace sees no need for drones over US because if al-Qaeda is spotted, they could call in military forces instead.
[Chris, those drones are NOT for al-Queda. Why else is several governmental departments, such as Social Security Administration, stocking up on ammo? Use your brain, Chris. They fear the populace more than they fear the foreign enemy.]
If you tell me Rand Paul done good, I’ll believe you and not force myself to watch chris wallace...
If you tell me Rand Paul done good, I’ll believe you and not force myself to watch chris wallace...
Actually he got a little harsher than that, thank God.
What’s the deal with Mc and Cheezy? They haven’t missed a Sunday morning in weeks. They are getting more face time than anyone else.
They are the lead RINOs, (democrats) hence acceptable to the RATagandists.
Rand talking about that-guy regarding his comments to "do it my way or the highway" and will bypass Congress, actually revealing that he is not serious about immigration reform and wants to do nothing...then blame it on the Republicans.
Re Rand Paul: Finally a Republican says that the democrats need to have a villain, and will change the rules, move the goal posts, ask for more, refuse to ‘compromise’ always, in order to keep their voters in line, and in order to never take the blame for anything.
Hold out for AB’s transcripts later.
Rove on now defending himself against attacks from Levin. SApent $30 million on TEAparty candidates, Akin was not TEAparty.
Woodward speaking...needs good beating.
Paul is worth hearing. The panel is nauseating!!!!! Karl Rove - Bob Woodward - Juan Williams and a conservative woman.
FNS
Rove criticizes Lugar and claims the loss was because Lugar hadn’t been to his ‘home’ state in decades, except to run for elections.
How many others on Capitol Hill do the same?
Blanche Lincoln, former Senator from Arkansas, actually ‘resided’ in Virginia (IIRC).
==
The Founding Fathers never intended Congress to be ‘full time’ nor ‘year round’ nor life-long career positions. Too bad they didn’t include Constitutional provisions to prohibit those 3 items.
Sequester deadline 2 weeks away.
Doubtful. Congresss will just kick the can down the road again.
Rove stated that more candidates makes for a better outcome, they need to be scrutinized to get disciplined candidates that can win...more Rand Pauls and fewer ChristineO’Donnells.
He supported Rand Paul and Marco Rubio.
Morning AB, all.
Thank you for doing this thread AB, hope the rest of y’all have a good Sunday without too much snow.
Sitting here watching Karl Rove on Fox News Sunday.
What a bunch of crap this man dishes up. What a liar!
I am watching that horrible Karl Rove and he says to do what he says and we’ll get MORE Rand Pauls and fewer Christine O’Donnell.
This is why folks like me HATE Karl Rove.
Mike Castle, for 30 years, lived with that guy all quiet like. When he was 70 he up and married some young thing cause he needed beard.
There’s nothing wrong with Christine O’Donnell. She happened to have been there long before she beat Castle, all the while as we BEGGED the Delaware GOP to get us away from Castle.
“Soon,” they shushed us. “soon. Be patient.”
Next thing we know, Castle’s running for Senator!!!
It’s the fault of the likes of ROVE that the Tea Party and Christine O’Donnell came to be�.those Blue Blood Elites will NEVER admit it.
Lord I hate Karl Rove�.despise the man.

Eh eh....she said; "¿½."
Very few bright spots amongst a seas of losers,thanks AB for the thread hope you are doing better.Cold down here only 100 miles from a communist island.
If any staff member of a tv political show reads this thread, please consider this suggestion:
STOP asking every guest if they are going to run for president in 2016. PLEASE!
It is a waste of conversation for questioner and answerer!
Dead air time is more stimulating.
I think you are so right.
It gets old and not the slightest bit interesting.
Okey dokey. Thank you.
I keep getting this weird message, from Xfinity, only on FreeRepublic and Lucianne.com.
It says they’ve found a BOT on my computer.
I also get this message on the Kindle, big pop-up, blocks my screen.
Got to call the Xfinity folks but I don’t know how I got those weird symbols, much less posting twice.
Heh.
Ben Carson interviewed on ABC- didn’t think what he said was particularly political. Asked God for wisdom before he gave his speech. Receeived lots of feedback, especially from older Americans.
Jonathon Karl - what do you make of obama as a leader? Carson says he is a very talented politician. (lol, satan is, too)
Asked about whether he would get into politics - Carson says he will leave it up to God.
Why do they keep saying, to the effect, that “it’s assumed that Chuck Hagel will be nominated?”
I don’t believe this.
What’s going on with the talking over each other on Meet the Depressed?
So why are we to “assume” that horrible traitor Hagel will be nominated?
Sounds like a stupid sound byte to me.
Some clown now on with dnc dave saying obamba chatting points. We are going to make darn sure Benghazi never happens again. These guys never get off point.Nothing but one talking point after another, after another. They are still running on what zero inherited from Bush,tragic.
We’ve already made 2.5 trillion budget deficit attempts, but still the deficit is there bigger than ever.no one lies better that these bozos.
Caught a little of McCain yelling at the moron Dave.
Oh!
I thought you did it on purpose to indicate an invective.
Are you using Explorer, or some other browser, like Firefox?
Rand “Paul” will go nowhere since his last name is “Paul”.
Paul is an amnesty supporter. How can he be a fiscal conservative if an amnesty costs us $2.6 trillion in entitlement costs alone if there are only 11 million illegal aliens? How can we legalize the status of 11 million lawbreakers and allow them to sponsor millions more to join them thru family reunification? What happened to the Rule of Law.
“The White House has kept details about the weekend to a minimum.” Meaning: “Secret!”
Live very close to the actual course.
Interesting occurrence yesterday. A small plane flew into the restricted space,
and was immediately escorted to a local airfield. Turned out to be non eventful, and a company owned aircraft who wandered where they shouldn’t be.
Heard the jets overhead they were that close and loud.
Used to private plane overhead traffic, but could tell something was different
Strange how we can have jets available, and in the area quickly, when we couldn’t do a thing to help in Bengazhi..
SARC........
FOX Sunday - Wallace asks about senate playing politics with Hagel’s nomination. Wallace asks are you worried he will be damaged?
Graham says Hagel is to left of obama’s. softness toward Iran, antagonistic to Israel- beyond belief. Graham says senate is doing its job to investigate one of the most radical, unqualifed SoDefense to be nominated.
....but Graham says the president deserves deference to get the person he wants. (?????what’s the point if you’re lettiung obama know you will give him what he wants????)
on Benghazi, Graham says they don’t know who the survivors of the attack so they can talk to them. Wallace says obama admin won’t allow the FBI interrview transcripts to be released to the Senate.
Re. Brennan - Wallace asks about killing Americans/al queida within our borders - Graham is just fine with killing alqueida. Court should not be involved. (He doesn’t specifically refer to American al-queida, but the inference is that he would be fine, IMO. WOWSA.)
Are we ever going to get zero to admit where he was, when, and why, while the four dead heroes were under attack?
It is McLame’s turn to run again. Perfect pick for the Gutless Old Party.
Pray for America
P.S.
The wind is howling and it’s 46 degrees so Barky is not going to have a
pleasant round .
