A dress rehearsal for impeachment

A dress rehearsal for impeachment

Pat Buchanan: The assault on Kavanaugh is the playbook for what is planned for Trump

In his 30 hours of public testimony before the judiciary committee prior to Thursday, no senator had raised an issue of a sexual misconduct.

But if Brett Kavanaugh is elevated to the Supreme Court, it will be because, in his final appearance, he tore up the script assigned to him. He set aside his judicial demeanor to fight for his good name with the passion and righteous rage of the innocent and good man he believes himself to be.

Agreed Mitt will replace Flake.——————

It would be better if he replaced one term flake. But I fear he’ll replace sen for life mccaine.

“Hopefully the conservative christian base understands WHY...”

I want to give you a chance to explain this ridiculous statement before I rip you a new one.

Whenever you’re ready...

Listen loser you’re not going to rip anyone. If you don’t understand what I posted then you’re stupid.

Kavanaugh is being targeted because of the pro abortion movement. He’s prolife, and second reason is he is pro second amendment.

Although emotions are running high right now and, as the Democrat/Left hopes desperately, many conservatives are ready to (understandably) give up on the GOP and hand Congress (then, within a year or two, the USSC and the Presidency) to the Democrat/Left if Republicans cannot get this slam-dunk nomination through, I am confident that if this was to happen (and I don't think it will), that Kavanaugh is not confirmed, that over the next four weeks this defeatist emotion will be replaced a level of anger, a level of rage that even the Democrat/Left cannot imagine.

Just think how great it would be and how wonderfully delicious it would feel if -- still a big "if" -- Kavanaugh's good name and career are purposefully and maliciously destroyed by the Democrat/Left that their party and the careers of most of those who personally did this are destroyed by America's patriots. Although for the sake of our Republic and our Constitution this should happen anyway, short of all-out war with the internal enemy they need to be hit so hard at the ballot box that they'll think twice before trying this schumer again (yeah, I know they would no matter how hard they're hit).

“Look at the bright side. Flake will be gone by the time Impeachment can happen.”

And replaced by Martha McSally, equally onerous.

The sea level of the Atlantic ocean is slightly higher than it is for the Pacific ocean. Where the two oceans meet south of Cape Horn Chile you will find the harshest weather and roughest seas imaginable.

This is what we are seeing today between two opposing political ideologies. For too long the ship of state has been sailing in the comparatively calm of the liberal side of the divide on a course towards the more conservative side. Not to stretch the analogy too far, we are were the two sides meet and are almost equal in power.

The Liberals are fighting to keep in place all the changes they have made in our nation, and the conservatives are fighting to roll back many of those changes.

Of course it is going to get nasty, personal and perhaps even deadly. But it is a battle that needs to be fought. If not now, when?

(Before I get a lecture on the use of the term “liberal” or “conservative” please save them for your college thesis. This is just quick post on a news related forum. I use the broad term LIBERAL and CONSERVATIVE in their broadest sense. I know there are degrees to everything and some cross over. I don’t really need a lecture at 7 am on a Saturday morning)

As always, these are just my uninformed opinions, take them for what they are worth. Thank you

The way to avoid all of this is Get Out The Vote

New Rules....we win you lose. Vote R no matter what. Primary those who are weak. No more staying home. This is war. Get your friends and neighbors out. Vote early. Scorched earth.

I’m getting tired of the ‘he has the power to declassify ‘ crap. He isn’t willing to do it so the ‘power’ is worthless. Power only counts when you use it. Right now all he is doing is counting to ten, but never getting past four, just like any weak parent and her unruly kids. As old Ross used to say, ‘Talks cheap, deeds are precious’. It’s time to put up or shut up. I’m sick of all the theories about what our side could, should or might do. Either do it or prepare for a democrat Congress come January along with all the evil that comes with it.

We are in a war that only one side is fighting. In football, war, life and politics you can only survive playing defense for so long against a determined an enemy before you face defeat. Our side has been playing defense for most of the 40 years of my adult life and where has it gotten us. We now have men in women’s bathrooms, good people be smeared by unfounded, unprovable accusations because of their political beliefs, our youngest children being read to by drag queens, and government agencies being politicized against conservatives with no fear of repercussions.

I don’t know which side the majority of the American people would come down if truly forced to choose, but it’s time we found out. Because of our unwillingness to engage over the years we’ve lost a whole generation to liberal indoctrination, are we now going to lose the country because, hey we might turn people off if we push them to take sides? If that’s how you feel then we’ve already lost.

You have to have high intelligence to hit back like they did. It is a shame we don’t have enough of them in elected office.

The Democrats' riot, to derail the Kavanaugh appointment, is more than a prelude to impeachment. It is a prelude to intensifying violence leading to war, if the Democrats' evil designs on America are thwarted.

The election of President Trump threw a monkey wrench into their evil plans.

His pledge to "clean up" the corruption in Washington was received as an attack on their evil plans and also on the corrupt, evil politicians and their henchpersons (notably in the news media!), whose power and privileges are accepted as their personal rights but, of far greater importance, as essential to the ultimate fulfillment of the Democrats' evil designs for the transformation of the USA into a totalitarian state.

These evil people cannot allow President Trump to succeed.

If he does, he will shine the light of truth on them, their corruption, their criminal activity, and their evil plans for America, and it will expose them and reveal what they are and what they plan to do.

If he succeeds in "cleaning up" the corruption, it will destroy their power and prevent the fulfillment of their evil plans.

These evil people will stop at NOTHING!

NOTHING is beneath them! NOTHING is beyond what they will do! The violence that they are capable of will shock the world!

They will scorch the earth!

They will wage war!

They will destroy America, the world, and everything in it!

Expect THE WORST from them! You will not be surprised!

If I can’t have a good one, I guess you shouldn’t either.(sarc) It just goes to show we have to hang in there every day. Our tendency is to think one vote or one judge or one speech fixes everything. We are deep enough in now, nothing can get fixed overnight. Hopefully November will rid us of just enough turncoats to be able to gain ground.

I think its more a matter of having backbone than intelligence. The GOP lacks backbone and avoids confrontations. They are vacuous and inert.

There seems to be no underlying principles or convictions in them. They just want to retain their comfortable seats in congress.

Let’s say the Dems fail to take either house of congress. What then? Or worse (for them) lose seats in both chambers.

Do they then riot and go on rampages? Do they take civil disobedience to new levels? I think there’s a good chance of that happening. The party has been taken over and is controlled by radical elements now. As we see nearly everyday.

Nice try buy your fake outrage doesn’t hide the fact you sidestepped the question.

Guess I shouldn’t blame you; I’d be embarrassed too.

I suggest you smarten up and lose the attitude.

Embarrassed? Do you have a SEVERE reading comprehension problem.?

Lets go over this a third time.

I said I hope the conservative christian Evangelical base comes out in force for midterms over this disgusting behavior the Dems/left have shown toward Kavanaugh for no other reason than he’s pro life. This is all about abortion to the left.

Now you want to explain why that opinion has you rambling angry at me?
