“supplying, if not creating our enemies”

That’s a fact! They give weapons to narco-terrorists in Mexico and Islamo-terrorists in the Levant—heavy weapons, tanks, vehicles and munitions—while doing all they can to infringe or deprive Americans of our liberty guaranteed by the Bill of Rights and “eat out our substance” by the same methods we rebelled against.

Let me remind you of 1. my tagline and 2. the additional fact that enough (of the first) Americans required to create the federal government, following the failure of the Articles of Confederation, demanded a Bill of Rights before finally agreeing to the creation of a stronger central government.

They were concerned that the federal government would get `too big for its britches’. That the executive (for example, particularly a non-natural born one) might come to see himself as a sort of king and attempt to legislate—to usurp the functions of a feckless, supine legislature—with orders/`laws’ drafted by the White House.

Pull that plastic ring on my back again and I’ll tell you what I really think .....

Cornyn never fails to disappoint. He always delivers for the uniparty.

It looks like the criminal political class pulled that plastic ring on your back one too many times already, as they did mine.

How about stopping the abandonment of perfectly good military equipment to ISIS? Just an oversight? I think not.
These guys are BS, they are duping the public via a corrupt and compromised media to make the public believe that the federal government is acting in the people’s interests.

Obama didn’t “abandon” the weapons and equipment to ISIS. It was an intentional transfer.

John Cornyn - establishmant republican, supporter of the police state. Doesn’t have to worry about reelection for a while, so you get to see his true authoritarian beliefs.

“Is Hassan alive? Was HE detected?”

Yes he was detected, in direct email communication with the leaders of Al Qeida. They did nothing with the info. Well, almost nothing, they PROMOTED him and gave him access to troubled returning vets.

They run guns to Al Qeida thru Benghazi. They run guns to the cartels. They open the borders. They import hundreds of thousands of moslems from conflict zones world wide. They admit they cannot possibly screen them all.

If you do this you cannot simultaneously say we need increased security because we are in danger. You don’t got to import and create the danger, then demand we submit to domestic military spying to deal with that same threat!

Of course. Just like bombers “missing” the ISIS targets.

We need a coup against the uniparty.

Translation: We Washington Timeservers want to keep an eye on the American people...

...oh, and maybe an occasional Moslem terrorist, too, if we have the time and resources.
