I would hope that with the more conservative and/or TEA party candidates we’ve elected since 2010, that we can start flexing some muscle and bring back the U.S. Constitution through legislation.
America had an opportunity to take all of Mexico, but declined to do so. I can't remember the years, but it was after the Civil War.
During the Revolutionary War, the Continental Congress sent a contingent to Canada precisely to ask for their support in fighting England. And if they agreed the American colonies offered to make them the 14th colony and they would be given complete freedom of religion. The Canadians thought about it and said no.
GOOD! Pour it on!
If we elect representatives who truly believe that states can decide which federal laws they will abide by and which they will not, like Tom Emmer apparently believes, then probably not.
The NY Times gave the GOP red in their famous national map of the 2000 Presidential Election. It was a glorious thing to see a color image of GOP dominance, despite it not being our traditional color. This year, the NYT had a full page election map, not on the cover. It was printed in black and white, and no party affiliations were listed in the charts. You could figure out eventually by reading the articles. All the news we endeavor to make you not notice.
It does seem so. The Senate also has some impressive additions.
I would like to watch Hice tell Joni Ernst that. I think that she would be able to put those cutlery skills she learned on the farm to good use.
Tom Emmer. He’s my man!!!!!
They probably should have included Alex Mooney (newly elected West Virginia congressman who replaced a semi-RINO who moved up to the US Senate). Like Dave Brat (a Tea Party conservative who eliminated the duplicitous Cantor in the primary) Mooney’s a “Two-fer” since his presence adds one more to the Tea Party portion of the Republican House caucus and subtracts one from the Boehner wing of the caucus.
Tread VERY softly Boehner and whistle as you pass Eric Cantor’s “graveyard”.
I have been sad that we’re losing Michele Bachmann, but glad to see that she’s getting a replacement who will uphold her tradition.
It might not take an actual invasion. Suppose the next president said to the President of Mexico, “You remember what happened in the 1840s? We’re quite capable of doing it again.” I think he might want to avoid that. Maybe enough to cooperate.
Has Cristina Marcos ever written articles about the crazy democrats? Satanina Marcos is a hypocrite.
I don’t really have a problem with anything any of them said.
Life will DEFINITELY be different for the SELL-OUTS after this election. Boener will have a TOUGH JOB now.
They’re probably in bed together.
A distinct possibility.
So will the 2008 Detroit Lions open a bottle of champagne when the Raiders go 0-16?
Ooops wrong thread (Darned multiple tab browsers!)
Wasn’t that during the Mexican American war in about the 1840’s?
Good news Bump.
