Most of them call themselves 'moderates' or 'compassionate Republicans'. This bullcrap means that they stand for nothing. They're accommodators of the 'Progressives'.
I've now become a Ted Cruz supporter!
It's small wonder that Barry and the Democrats have so much contempt for Republicans; they're gutless wonders!
Ted Cruz, is principled and takes bold, practical action. I have steadfastly refused to contribute to the Republican Senatorial fund and never listen to their callers!
Republicans? You mean RepubliCats?
I contacted my newly minted Senator from Georgia, David Perdue, and told him that he had to publically state his intention on her nomination NOW. I told him NO, Hell No!.
Basically, if he and the rest of the new crew and fence sitters stay silent until McConnell decides he has enough D and R votes to pass her and ‘allow’ some Senators a courtesy NO vote, then they are lying cowards - I told Perdue this....told him if he doesn’t he’s lost my vote in 6 years.
Ping.
I have seen a few FR posts recently knocking Cruz, a tactic to put doubt in our conservative support - probably to promote their favorite candidate (Walker, Bush, Paul). I don’t care why Cruz continues to combat the left in favor of conservative values - even if it is some big deceitful attempt to put himself in the spotlight, as these posters have suggested. While I doubt this is his motivation, it sure is refreshing to hear someone articulate conservative values and the support of founders principles in me. I sure don’t hear any other POTUS 2016 candidates saying much to defend our Constitution and values. I sure as heck won’t vote for Bush if he is the RINOe GOP candidate in 2016.
I’m so mad at the Republican Party for their abandonment of the Constitution to be popular to throngs of illiterate, life sucking, irresponsible and frequently illegal Americans. I’ve stopped financial support, written letters, and called to no avail. They win a big election, then fail to listen to the voters, and yet ask me daily for financial support. What will it take for them to listen and get out of their progressive ivory towers? They are worse than Democrats who, at the least, identify themselves clearly as the enemy.
She’s black, and that terrifies them. No more complicated than that.
BLOCK HER WITH EXTREME PREJUDICE!!!!
Cruz is making a lot of sense on this. His job as Senator in situations like this is to give his advice and consent to the nominee.
With the nominee saying, in effect, that she has no problem with nobama’s unconstitutional behavior I certainly concur with Cruz’s advice. He’s not consenting to this either and I agree completely.
Regarding the other Republicats, including senator linda from South Carolina, see my tag.
linda’s just following her established line here... anybody that voted for Sodamayor and Kagan for the SCOTUS, would have no problem voting for Lynch at DOJ.
Quite right because the RATS operate the same way. Just ask Robert Bork, Miguel Estrada and Janice Rogers Brown. They'll tell ya.
I despise the GOPe.
I thought that any single Senator could place a “hold” on any nomination.
Republicans just don't get it.
My two Senators (AZ) are a disgrace.
Essentially the whole republican Congress is just laughing it up in the manner similar to that pic of ø, jarret and company being as giddy at their destruction of America.
Et tu a$$holes?
Is there any more reason for doubt?
Of course they do. For the most part, they serve as nothing more than the “conservative” wing of the far-left democrat party.
“Don’t rock the boat, Ted, the Constitution doesn’t matter any more. Our plan is SO close to coming to fruition - PLEASE stop trying to save this once-great country”
she’s street rat crazy and door stump stupid. what republicans would actually want that crazy witch?
oh yea, republicans that are democrat operatives. got it.
who are they and revoke their membership in the party.
why not? having an ‘R’ next to their name doesn’t do much if they’re constantly helping democrats
THE NEW AMERICAN, a posting from the Magazine of the John Birch Society.
Didn’t know they were still around, attended a few meetings in the early fifties.... lets dig up Franklin Roosevelt and George Marshall and tar and feather them.
At this point, the Republicans have everything to gain by keeping Holder as Attorney General, because Holder “can hear them jail doors clanging”, and is scared that all too soon he might be wearing federal pajamas himself, for the various and sundry crimes he has committed.
This has caused Holder to start doing his job well for a change, such things as ending the hateful scheme of giving police departments the ill-gotten gains of money and property confiscations.
His potential replacement, however, is such a crazy radical that she has probably told herself that she can do anything she wants and Obama will pardon her. And she is so Cynthia McKinney level nuts that heaven knows what evil she would perpetrate on the nation in the next two years or so.
So the bottom line to the senate is, despite whatever you might think political advantage you might get by approving her, don’t do it. Stay with the devil you know, not one itching to go crazy in a position of power.
The country does not need an insane Maoist Marxist as Attorney General right now. We truly don’t.
Everyone who is surprised by this, stand on your heads.
Because it’s OK to confirm someone that will continue Holder’s GetYT agenda.
Watch out for Cornyn. He’s getting ready to do his treasonous two-step again - vote for cloture to advance the candidate then ostentaciously vote against on the floor.
