"She can be impeached can't she?"

Impeached by whom? The Senate that just confirmed her? Am I living in La-La Land all of a sudden?

Lynch, like (with)Holder and obama, is immune to impeachment due to skin color. It’s really that simple.

Otherwise, how would these characters keep getting elected?

By ignorant, low info GOP voters who vote GOP because they are "better" than the Democrats, or something... Unfortunately, many of those have infiltrated every day life, even right here on FR.

TO assume coercion gives them credit for doing things involuntarily.

These asshats support the policies or the bills would never reach the floor for a vote.

There is no coercion. It is a knowing, voluntary waiver of Constitutional rights so that their corruption continues to be hidden from scrutiny.

Washington DC is a cesspool, and the Republicans are covered as much as the Democrats in the stink.

The press will not shine a light on it.

The new Attorney General will not investigate it.

The few “Conservatives” will make speeches, which will result in nothing.

The people want this, and the people are reaping what they have sown.

“Not only did the usual jelly-backed Senate Republicans vote to confirm Lynch”

I don’t know about that “jelly-backed” description. McConnell seems to be a rigid, stand-up, in-your-face liberal democrat who never backs down. If he were conservative Republican, he would cave all the time.

McConnell is helping the Dems and the first time he needs help from them he’ll get the Arlen Specter treatment

Maybe if OUR side investigates and publishes whatever it is they have on McConnell and the rest it will either get them thrown out of office or at least take the blackmail factor out of the equation.

Another example of why supporting the Republican Party is wasted effort.

I can't count how many times I have read that conservatives should work from within and take over the Republican Party and no matter how many Tea Party Types and/or Conservatives we elect on the promise of change and drawing a line in the sand it never happens.

I now just hang up when the party calls for money. I now wonder if we should not move to a Parliamentary System of government.

This is how


Have no fear; the GOPe minions will pollute FreeRepublic next year, telling us we have to vote for the “R” candidate no matter what, else the horrible “D” will win.

I could be wrong, but given the record thus far, it seems like McConnell and Boner are 0bama's bitches. Meet the new boss, same as the old boss.

I can't recall any victories for conservatism since the Republicans won the Senate. Content-wise, it feels like the democrats are still in control.

Obamacare was fully funded, the IRS is still free to abuse American citizens, subtle amnesty continues unchecked. It shows the one difference between the two parties. Democrats will dig their heels in, use whatever tools they have, make noise and put up a fight for what they want. Republicans will ask democrats if they can have something and then meekly slither away into a corner and wet themselves when told "no".

This seems to happen a lot. Like McCain in AZ.

I still “reside” in CA. Though my heart’s in Dixie, and my wife’s beginning to see its inevitability. She was born and bred out here...but so was our daughter, who’s out there now.

Both retired. I want to get a little place in the woods out there, and just daydream the rest of my life away.

My teachers always said that was how I’d end up. ‘Hope they were right.

Yeah, I know, but someone needs to speak words of reason every once in a while.

McConnell and Boehner both need to swing from dockyard cranes. And left to rot. After we treat the current occupants of the White House to the same justice.

I disagree. The turn-coat Republicans should go first. The Marxists can watch, knowing they're next.

“As attorney general, Eric Holder too often put political and ideological commitments ahead of the rule of law. That’s not something the American people expect in the nation’s highest law-enforcement official, and it’s something Mr. Holder’s replacement should commit to avoiding at all costs as a condition of his or her confirmation — whether it relates to the President’s acting unilaterally on immigration or anything else.”

Mitch McConnell

The GOP has lost it. The conservative base helped give them the majority because of statements like this and once in office they have told us to “F” off.

Unimpeachable like Obama because she’s black, and a woman to boot.
