The war is being fought on multiple fronts. There are those where blood is shed today, primarily overseas against tyranny and terrorism, such as in Israel. Our President and State Department are in support of the terrorists there quite visibly so. And in other places, such as Egypt and Libya where it wasn’t quite as visible.

And then there are the wars against the people, where the battles are being fought in the states and in the halls of Congress where it’s difficult to tell who’s actually doing the fighting and who’s really on your side, because of misguided loyalties.

Then there’s the immigration front. A blatant attempt to increase the number of voters to keep incumbents in office and party leadership in power, regardless of political party.

Not a lot of blood is being lost - yet - comparatively, but there’s some, due to the increased energy cost, the street violence in Chicago, Detroit, and other similar locations due to high unemployment and sense of helplessness, and general feeling of “nothing left to lose”. The problem here is that there will be more and more lost due to the policies of this administration as time goes on. Just like Johnson’s War on Poverty, expectations and increasing sense of entitlement will become ingrained in the population. What will be the tipping point?

War is coming. Anyone with any sense of observation can see it. It won’t be the Civil War all over again; it will be the 2nd American Revolution; it will be the ruling party against the people. During the first, it is estimated that only 25% of the population supported the revolt. And the Americans won. What percentage this time? It won’t be pretty.

Way to go Mr. Sessions. He is one of my Senators. I saw a vote tally the other day where our other one, Shelby, voted WITH the Dems. Sessions is one of the few who stood with Ted Cruz during his filibuster a few months ago.

The Birmingham News buried that article and led with one this morning blaming him for “bringing down” a veterans bill without telling the reading public what was in the bill.

Sessions for President.

Cruz for President.

I’ll take either one.

If they at least vote for their local politicians that shows the state and federal politicians which way the wind is blowing.

Good and spread the word. Our good guys need to know that we know and that they’re not alone. Every time I think about Tyrone S. Woods and Glen Doherty fighting their hearts out while Obama and Hillary slept it makes me furious.

It’s only metaphorical, but we can’t let our good guys not know that they’ve got back up and we mean it. I know that Sessions isn’t risking his life, but it’s an important part of the fight. We have to win. Thanks.

Cruz is fine, but Sessions has been fighting this fight way before Cruz arrived. He is the best there is.

I’m grateful for what he is doing but wonder if his motive is because this is an election year for him?

“I know that Sessions isn’t risking his life, but it’s an important part of the fight.”

Very. He’s been fighting for this country for a decade now. Even Tancredo got fed up and quit but Sessions is still at it. It had to be easy to get demoralized, after being attacked by your own party. But he’s kept at it.

Jeff Sessions is a lock He has nothing to fear about being reelected.

Jefferson Beauregard Sessions III who has served in the position since 1997, is running for re-election to a fourth term. He was the only candidate to file before the deadline and as such he will be unopposed in the primary and general elections

They make a big deal about reaching a budget agreement. Then every time we turn around they’re approving more spending.

Jeff Sessions is indeed a true hero tonight.But let’s not forget the great people of Alabama who have elected him.

God bless senator Sessions and the great state of Alabama.
