Philadelphia.
It all started there.
It ended there.

If I remember correctly, numerous FReepers were giving LS a hard time about vote fraud before the election and he shrugged them off repeatedly. At one point, I recall him saying that if you're so worried about fraud, then go out there and generate some fraudulent votes yourself -- or words to that effect.

This is exactly why a republic can not exist where even a plurality of the population is immoral. Honestly, I think we crossed that threshold somewhere in the 1960s. It is only now that it's evident to anyone who is really paying attention.

One look at Pennsylvania and its mimeograph-vote-printing machinery and you understand that in this sense as well, federalism has failed.

Philadelphia Pennsylvania is once again the political capital of the country as it essentially determines who our president is. Yep, our system is broken.

Agree. The 60’s was a watershed decade.

Author Ronald Kessler (Inside the CIA, Inside the White House) said,

"The Democrats are the treason party and the Republicans are the stupid party."

Truer words were never spoken.

To any Republican in public office please take the time to read my note.

Elections are a social contract put in place to avoid conflict. This contract assumes a fair and open election. Without this assurance of integrity of process we surely will be bound to the consequences.

Republicans are in a position to either accept the outcome of this election conducted fraudulently from the onset or reject it and resort to a constitutional remedy.

For those timid Republicans this is not an opportunity to exploit what gains that may have been made for the next election. But it is rather the last opportunity for the Republican party to remain an viable political party.

The conventional wisdom may say we surely will gain position in two years but be assured the Trump wave that produced more votes then Obama landslides will no longer be Republican.

Disillusioned with weak Republican members constantly being cow towed by the fighters in the opposition your support will evaporate to sit and watch as the ship of state fails.

Do not misunderstand and clearly understand we expect hero’s from our party or we will abandon you in droves to never return as it is now.

Republicans have it in their power to accept or reject this election and we expect you to reject this election. The future of the country depends on it and the future of the Republican party depends on it.

Thank you. I was thinking the same thing.

Federalism didn’t fail. We failed Federalism. I remember saying basically the same thing when I was on the National Mall in 2010 with my Gadsden flags.

The Constitution has not failed us. We have failed the Constitution.

Yep, the Dems took a wrecking ball to it. And the GOP sat in the grandstands and watched it happen.

Our form of government was only going to work so long as we had an honorable, thoughtful and honest population. That’s all changed now. We’re a thoroughly corrupt kleptocracy.

Why didn’t any of this happen in Ohio?

If all of this stuff in the other States were legit, then why didn’t we see it also happen in Ohio, it’s virtually demographically the same.

When those first reports were coming out of Wuhan, the Democrats put their plan into place for mail-in voting.

And even when Covid goes away, mail-in voting won’t, it’s here to stay, and we’d better figure out how to deal with it.
