“RINO-Dem Coalition is strong. Uniparty”

Yes, the uniparty is strong and will most likely remain in control of electoral politics in the US. And that’s one reason why I’ve decided to try to control my voting addition....One Election At A Time. And like any recovering addict, I have a bit of the zeal of the converted. But I digress.

Lemme tell you a little bit about the uniparty that you might not have thought about. We all know that the ‘rat and gop factions aren’t much different from each other, that they’re corrupt, and basically want the same thing: power for power’s sake through growth of state control. But let’s talk about one thing that isn’t so much talked about: the uniparty is really good at ensuring that their hegemony remains unchallenged. I mean they’re really, really good at it. They’ve had over 150 years of practice. So the chances of us our actually getting a second party that can challenge the uniparty’s hegemony is pretty slim.

There isn’t much point in voting or working to elect a second party when the uniparty controls access to the ballot, makes the rules for voting, controls the elections, and counts the votes. The end result isn’t much in question.

That is why we should follow the advice on my tag line.

From Sarah Palin: Build the America you want to live in at your address, and keep looking up.

That is how we survive, from living day to day the best we can, regardless of the petty politics and power mongering in D.C.

Thank you for contacting me about the purchase of Russian helicopters for use by the Afghan military.

As you may know, the U.S. Department of Defense plans to buy 21 Mi-17 helicopters for the Afghan National Security Forces from the Russian company Rosoboronexport by 2016. Some members of Congress have opposed this sale due to the support that Russia has provided to President Bashar al-Assad’s regime in Syria. I understand these objections, and I condemn the Assad regime’s continued massacring of its people.

However, the fact remains that the United States has already entered into a contract with Rosoboronexport, which the Pentagon has determined is the only viable source for the helicopters needed by the Afghan military. Failure to provide the Afghans with the appropriate infrastructure may hinder efforts to make the Afghan forces responsible for their own security. The situation in Syria remains fluid, and I will be sure to keep your comments in mind in the days and weeks ahead.

Thank you again for taking the time to contact me. Please do not hesitate to do so again in the future. I also encourage you to visit my website: flake.senate.gov.

Sincerely,

JEFF FLAKE
United States Senator

My Senator? A RINO to the end, taught by McCain!
