Didn’t notice this before, but George Will has short bus hair.

Fitting.

I still wish Trump would have appointed him as ambassador to France or some other inconsequential country. That way, we wouldn’t have to put up with him occupying some U.S. Senate seat which could have gone to a real conservative like Dr. Mike Kennedy.

- peace, commerce, and honest friendship with all nations, entangling alliances with none;


Some think this means not protecting American interests abroad. Nothing could be further from the truth.

President Jefferson was the first president to recognize the need for a navy to protect American interests on the seas.

He was the first president to authorize an American war without Congress’ consent, with the Barbary Pirates, who were of course, Muslim, an used their religion as the rational for their attacks on us.

> “What were the historic blunders? It was not supporting ... conservative judges and justices”

I agree with 99% of what Pat writes here but Bush I gave us Clarence Thomas and Bush II gave us Alito. However, Pat does not use the term ‘appointing’, he uses ‘supporting’ which colors it different.

I sure hope they never come back. All the Neo-Con artists should go back to the democrat party, that’s where they drifted in from in the first place.

Bush never had a legacy in Iraq.


We had won and Iraq was under control when Obama engineered a lack of status of forces agreement, then used that as a reason to pull our troops out.

Obama’s pull out of our troops created a power vacume that was filled by Isis, exactly as predicted before he did it.

That’s what I was thinking as I read the replies!

It’s always been the Elites versus the Middle Class.

In the late 1990s the Elites decided to promote the servile class (Gimedats) at the expense of the middle class.

It is so much easier to contain people who are dependent on your welfare than a free people who could live with or without you.

BTW, someone tell Pat that Trump came down an escalator, not an elevator.

I'm no fan of Obama, but this is incorrect.

U.S. military forces were removed from Iraq by Barack Obama in December 2011 -- under the terms of the Status of Forces Agreement signed by George W. Bush in November 2008.

Good article !

The only thing I disagree with is that Bob Dole is not a NeverTrumper. He is the one recent Repub “leader” that actually supported Trump.

I think it goes back to the fact that Dole was never the big fan of open borders and “free trade” that the Bushes were.

No, I mistyped it with a pm and just didn’t notice it. Otherwise I would have corrected it,

Europe today is not afraid of Vladimir Putin reaching the Rhine. Europe is afraid of Africa and the Middle East reaching the Danube.

The leadership of most Europeans seem to be draining the Danube for easy crossing by the barbarian hordes. The people may be starting to scream about it, but in all but a few countries like Hungary and Poland the leadership is willfully deaf to those screams.

“The Republican Party of Bush I and II, of Bob Dole and John McCain, is history. It’s not coming back.”


Please be so.

Fair point, but I suspect Romney would have quit and run for the Senate seat anyhow.

You see, when you believe:

God created multiple worlds and each world has people living on it

Multiple Gods exist but each has their own universe and you are only subject to your universes God

If you obtain the highest level of heaven you can become a god yourself

it all makes sense.

To be fair Pat is among those he most passionately disclaims. He is, as ever, the clearest of the muddled and his own worse enemy.
