TOO NAUSEATED TO WATCH IT ALL-— Watching tidbits of sap-happy Obama’s SOTU-—I kept wondering what he was smoking before he came out to speak.
Or maybe Valerie gave him a Big Gulp cocktail of uppers dissolved in a quart of 180 proof vodka.
For an ego-driven pol who got slaughtered at midterms, the idiot seemed in unusually “high” spirits.
CONCLUSION The ding-a-ling has finally lost it-—high time to call in the men in the white coats.
And despite ALL of that, we still lose.
However, RiNO's are seeking out and banding together with 'Rat caucuses (or remnants of caucuses, as in Texas) to form a governing block of votes to control the State's agenda in spite of the majorities and the votes. This is true in Texas, where the speaker of the Texas house is a liberal RiNO most of whose support comes from the 'Rats.
It would be interesting to know, if your data-mining source is driven to pursue even more insight, if this arrangement is common among States that have elected strongly- or more-conservative Republican majorities.
I ask because I see the hand of Karl Rove and his NWO bosses in our Texas predicament. The speakership didn't just fall on this speaker: he led an insurrection against the former, conservative speaker with the help of the liberal 'Rats (but I repeat myself) to roll the majority. Somehow I think someone whispered in his ear..... And I should add that New England Old Money Yankees have had a habit of doing this for the last 75 years or so, planting cuckoo eggs on us to get Yankee results from Texas congressmen.
The Texas lege is now 2:1 Republican, but the RiNO' s and social liberals control the agenda.
