Have the Democrats finally gone too far?
New York Post ^ | March 9, 2019 | Michael Goodwin

Pick up a newspaper or watch the news about what Democrats are up to and you’re certain to ask yourself the same question dominating American politics: Are they going too far?

Did Democrats overreach when they invited convicted liar and turncoat scammer Michael Cohen to tell Congress President Trump is a bad guy?

Are they on a ridiculous fishing expedition when they summon 81 people, including three of the president’s children, to testify to a congressional panel whose chairman says he’s certain Trump committed crimes, no matter what special counsel Robert Mueller says?

Have they lost their minds with plans for a single-payer health system, the Green New Deal, unrestricted abortion, open borders and endless free stuff?

Then there is the fiasco involving Rep. Ilhan Omar, whose habit of making anti-Semitic remarks somehow became a referendum on Islamophobia. In failing to call her out and instead treating her like a victim of Republican hate, did Democrats condone her anti-Semitism?

Certainly Jewish voters might think so. Among Dems’ most loyal constituencies, with about 75 percent of their votes usually going to the party’s presidential nominee, Jews were told to suck it up and take one for the team.

“Each of those 81 people will have to hire an attorney ... at great expense to their families.”

This sounds like “let’s you and him fight”, but what if all of those summoned tell Jerrold the Waddler to get bent?

Will he send U.S. Marshals to arrest them? Does he have that authority?

My wife and I were discussing this the other day.

Late stage commie onset is very strong in groupthink. Even “normal” people get swept up in it, well past the gulag and shooting people in the head stage. It’s like one of those college behavioral experiments where you can’t believe people keep pushing the shock button.

We are in scary times.

——75 percent ——

Hmmm.... Is the percentage that low? I would have thought the Jewish coalition was more monolithic

G Larry. You are spot on with your Colorado assessment. We have fallen so fast in the past 6 to 8 years my wife and I are for the first time talking of retirement to Wyoming and give up all we have built over the past 40 years. Very sad scarry state of affairs.

Ha! Don’t count on it. The word “sane” and Democrat voter don’t go together.

Given the election fraud we saw in 2018 and the brainless suburban women voters, Dems will accelerate their hatred and insanity.

America will enter a period of darkness in the next few years that most of us will never live long enough to see the end of.

I even support hate speech.

Hate is a human emotion and cannot be legislated out of existence. If someone's hate causes them to act in a criminal way against others, then that is a crime in and of itself. The motivation...the why of a crime...is secondary to the what of a crime. As such, there should never be such a thing as "hate crimes," only crimes.

Well, yes. But then, I don’t think there is a time in our history when the Democrats weren’t a cancer on America.

Amen!

And that includes Jefferson and Jackson!

Have the Democrats finally gone too far?

____________________________________________________

This question has been posited a million times in the past. It’s amazing that we on the Right can even entertain that this will permanently cripple the Dems. With illegals flowing into the country and voting rights being extended to them, it’s a no-brainer. These people almost exclusively pull the lever for the Dems. If I were a Democrat, the only thing I WOULD worry about is Trump and conservatives cutting off my pipeline of ever-increasing votes. Everything else is inevitably in favor of the Left is it doesn’t happen.

I will just say that it’s not really a fair question. Let me explain. A lot of millennials and others who vote Democrat and please understand I mean a lot of them not all of them but a lot of them actually are brainwashed into what the Democrat Party now stands for. Now it is full social list Democrat socialist or communist whichever one you want to label it. But those who have a favorable opinion of the Democrats don’t fully understand because the TV the media does not tell them the full story of what it really is. They hear sound bites they hear other stuff and all their friends and all the leftist leaders tell them no it’s not really like that that’s not what they believe. When in fact they are actually having an opinion based on a lie about the Democrat party. So it really is not a fair question.

Liz Cheney: “Democrats have been in control for less than 3 months and in that time they have become the party of infanticide,
the party of anti-Semitism, the party of Socialism, and passed legislation violating the first and second Amendments.”

The Democrat party is the party of Satan.

#WalkAway does not exist.

It is currently being censored & purged from your apps, smartphones, browsers and OS Operating Systems by Democrat mandate. Remember those meetings of Obama & Big Tech?

All your computers are Affirmatively Infected.

Voice to Voice is the only method remaining.

You can't believe the number of Coloradan's checking out Wyoming on Zillow.

I'm active in GOP politics and the Catholic Church, and many traditional conservatives are having their beliefs challenged as they become part of a shrinking minority, unwilling to compromise with the Devil.

see my tagline...

Nobody is walking away unless and until the Media reports the outrageous actions by the Democrats.

You will never see these idiotic ideas reported in a bad light above the fold in the NYT or as the lead in story on the Alphabet Networks Nightly News broadcasts.

Heck that dude on PMSNBC Rachel Maddow is up to 4,000,000 Viewers and has the Top Rated Program on Cable News.

Add that to the Liberal Propaganda feeding Education System poisoning the minds of an entire Generation and there is no hope for recovery.

Face it, we older folks were fortunate enough to have lived in the America that was proud of its history and accomplishments. We are probably the last to experience that.

They have not lost their minds.
This has been their plan since the 80’s.
They were just waiting for the right time.

The GOP-e has shown they have no concept of what is really going on.
They have also failed to listen (or attacked) those who saw this coming.

They have been too busy cashing lobbyist checks while selling out the country. They simply don’t give a damn about principles and haven’t for decades now.
