In Face of GOP Sweep, Democrats Scheme
Canada Free Press ^ | 11/06/14 | Douglas V. Gibbs

A political war is about to erupt, and the Democrats are preparing to go for the jugular

The Republicans were victorious during the 2014 Election in much the same way they were in the mid-term election in 2010. The GOP, thanks to this latest election, put a good number of Republican Governors in blue States, obtained an historic majority in the House of Representatives, and have gained a few seat majority in the Senate, which will launch a two-year hell, or heaven, for the Democrats, and President Barack Obama.

I am sure Nancy Pelosi is sitting in her jet, surrounded by bottles of booze, trying to figure out what happened. . . because she doesn’t know anybody that votes Republican. Harry Reid is wondering if he should enlist the services of a shredding machine before he relinquishes control as a Senate Majority Leader. Barack Obama knows that for the next two years it will be fun for him. He gets to play king, and do all he can without Congress. He has already shown us that he believes congressional participation in government is optional, especially if the Congress is run by a bunch of Republicans.

The joy of PA conservatives is diminished by the election of Tom Wolf as governor, a big tax Democrat who wants to introduce a tiered tax system.

As I posted elsewhere on another thread a priority must be to make it known to our representatives that we want a change in leadership. McConnell OUT, and Boehner OUT.

It’s a must if conservatives are to get anything done we want done.

McConnell, and Boehner will give Obama the store.

Ready for headlines folks?

Republicans block funds to save old ladies from cliffs.
Republicans block funds for feeding starving homeless.
Yada yada yada.

Tues has given some hope though. But everyone knows more working brains exist in mid-terms than zombie, err general.

Sadly, I believe that this may well be prophetic.

The Marxists, like the cornered animal, know they are fighting for their lives.

Most Repubs are not fighters. It’s like the Iraqi army vs. ISIS. One side is in it for convenience. They run when the going gets tough. The other side is in it for everything, and invariably scatters the opposition who collapses before them.

May God help us and let Ted Cruz and others like him lead.......

Jeff Sessions was just on Fox talking about using the budget to restrain Nero’s attempt at Amnesty.

He was smiling like a Cheshire Cat...given he will chair the budget Committee he should be. Barry’s in for a rough ride regardless of what deals boner and turtle face think they call scam us with. Remember it was Sessions that led the charge to expose the gaggle of 8s Scamnesty bill. McConnell has no power to muzzle him!

I think the point of the article is not how corrupt Obama is, but how weak, and perhaps corrupt, the GOP "Leadership" is.

In any sane Universe Obama would be Impeached in a bipartisan effort.

And the fact the GOP won't exploit this reality is telling.

These Senators are up for reelection in 2016 and are keenly aware that America is fed up with their sh!t.

Look at the list below! While there's only a few venerable Democrats there's AT LEAST a dozen Republicans venerable to Tead Party Primary Challenges, and we need to let them know it.

Michael Bennet (Colorado)

Richard Blumenthal (Connecticut)

Barbara Boxer (California)

Patrick Leahy (Vermont)

Barbara Mikulski (Maryland)

Patty Murray (Washington)

Harry Reid (Nevada)

Charles Schumer (New York)

Ron Wyden (Oregon)

REPUBLICANS

Kelly Ayotte (New Hampshire)

Roy Blunt (Missouri)

John Boozman (Arkansas)

Richard Burr (North Carolina)

Dan Coats (Indiana)

Tom Coburn (Oklahoma) – Retiring in 2014. Seat TBD in 2014 special election.

Mike Crapo (Idaho)

Chuck Grassley (Iowa)

John Hoeven (North Dakota)

Johnny Isakson (Georgia)

Ron Johnson (Wisconsin)

Mark Kirk (Illinois)

Mike Lee (Utah)

John McCain (Arizona)

Jerry Moran (Kansas)

Lisa Murkowski (Alaska)

Rand Paul (Kentucky)

Rob Portman (Ohio)

Marco Rubio (Florida)

Richard Shelby (Alabama)

John Thune (South Dakota)

Pat Toomey (Pennsylvania)

David Vitter (Louisiana)

Hawaii, Oklahoma and South Carolina each have one Senate seat TBD in 2014 Special Election. Winner of 2014 special election will be up for re-election in 2016.

The biggest and most violent riots will come on the “Republican” watch. Ferguson will erupt in the next couple of weeks. How big will it be? I haven’t a clue.

Bingo!

Obama is a lame duck. He can do whatever he wants to do with Presidential powers because Congress, the Courts, and the Fourth Estate will not call him to account.

Only if the Republicans grow a set NOW will they be able to stop the insanity about to be unleashed on the country and the world.
