When Justice Antonin Scalia died we mourned a great Jurist who believed in the Constitution’s ability to protect our rights and way of life. When the days of mourning passed we realized we are in grave danger of losing our liberties because Barack Obama could replace Scalia with someone who hates the Constitution and would take our rights away. Enter Obama’s nominee Merrick Garland.

Although Republican Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell says there will be no hearing to fill the Court’s vacancy, Democrat Senator Chuck Schumer has expressed his total confidence that ultimately McConnell and his caucus will give in and confirm Garland. Who can argue with Schumer’s logic; after all, the Republicans cave in on everything! Schumer knows his enemies and so do we.

Maine Senator Susan Collins, a reliable voter for the Democrats, has now joined Republican Senator John Boozman of Arkansas in agreeing to meet with Garland.

With elections coming in November, we can only watch and wait for more Republicans to agree to trade their vote to confirm Garland for a puff piece article in the media. This is what is important to the Republican establishment, nice articles from a media that actually hates them.

We are not important; they stab us in the back.

No one who follows the workings of either Party can be confident the knives aren’t aimed at our back. The Democrats do what Democrats do – they hate the Constitution, but make no pretense. The Republicans are sneaky and will lie to our face.

Judge Scalia, speaking of the obozo, once said; “What can he do to me?” Now we know.

This why the prospect of ‘Revolution’ is about to enter the mainstream.

Civil society is coming to an end unfortunately.

Why I left the party earlier this year. (That and becoming disgusted that the only thing they care about is if I respond to their solicitations for money). The Democrats are at least honest about their socialist intentions. The Republicans are nothing but one head fake after another. It's a party that needs to die soon.

As soon as Boner pushed the spending bill through the House before the new House members arrived, I was on the internet changing my registration to independent, having been a registered republication since 1959.

‘everything’

Like that amnesty bill that Obama signed

And that gun control (gun safety Dems call it) bill he signed

And minimum wage

And Cap and Trade

Obama got ‘everything’ he asked for out of them, ‘everything’
