Incumbents rarely get voted out. The odds are way in their favor. Term limits are the only option to rid citizens of these tyrants who do more for non-citizens and parasites than the do for taxpayers. Read Erne Lewis’s book An Act of Self Defense.

Ever notice how this phony crap labeled “judicial activism” always rules in favor of tyranny and perverts? There are so many corrupt lawyers in the legal system there is no way out. The lawyers run every branch of government. They have put us in this mess and they profit hugely from every new law and regulation.

Oh, I agree...the analogy is atrocious.

Feinstein made herself look like an ass by making the comparison....her comments OUGHT to be used in commercials against Democrats nationwide.

I think the House elections of 2014 need to be nationalized by the Republicans, like Newt did in 1994...

Obama’s entire strategy will be to make Republicans out to be the bad guys.

Idiotic statements like Feinsteins can be used to make Obama’s strategy backfire.

“Angry Republican Senator Wages War on Democrat Woman.”

What the headline really should be:

“Angry patriotic American Senator Wages War on Communists.”

Well... We can’t say we weren’t warned.

If [as the Federalists say] “the judiciary is the last resort in relation to the other departments of the government,” … , then indeed is our Constitution a complete felo de so. … The Constitution, on this hypothesis, is a mere thing of wax in the hands of the judiciary, which they may twist and shape into any form they may please. It should be remembered, as an axiom of eternal truth in politics, that whatever power in any government is independent, is absolute also; in theory only, at first, while the spirit of the people is up, but in practice, as fast as that relaxes. Independence can be trusted nowhere but with the people in mass. They are inherently independent of all but moral law … — Letter to Judge Spencer Roane, Nov. 1819 Thomas Jefferson.

We have to get behind Cruz or Paul now. K Street is already consolidating behind Bush.

“...These liberals infuriate me....’

I know. You’re not alone. Communism has a way of doing that to you.

I swear Cruz has a Bill Murray look on his face; I expected: **Gunga galunga… gunga, gunga-galunga.**

‘Hey, Feinstein, hey, how about a little something, you know, for the effort, you know.’ And she says, ‘Oh, uh, there won’t be any money, but when you die, on your deathbed, you will receive total consciousness about the Second Amendment, by the power vested in me as a US Senator.’ So I got that goin’ for me, which is nice.”

Cruz put a stick in her butt. I bet that’s the most energy she’s exerted in years.

Go Cruz!

—— She refused to answer Cruz’s questions... as usual. -——

No! She has seen gunshot victims, and she thinks getting shot is bad. She also believes that school massacres are bad!

Feinstein’s looking more and more like an old hag.

And why not? That's what she is, has been and will be. Forever. And a stupid one at that.
