There used to be a time I would read such stuff from the committed left and it would get me all riled up.

Now, all I can say is: If the shoe fits, wear it.

The GOP and ALL denizens of Washington DC are corrupt and not worth the powder and shot to blow them to hell.

Unfortunately, we’;ll have to spend money on fair trials, and security for the hangings.

He and Boehner are epitomizing what our Founders never wanted: Professional politicians, polluted by DC, unanswerable to the elected.

FTA: “Not a single one of these initiatives, you’ll notice, could be fairly described as progressive. They’re not necessarily conservative, either. What binds them together, instead, is that their strongest supporters are all very wealthy — and most of them are corporate. That’s usually the case with bills that survive today’s Congressional gauntlet; they ignore the people altogether, and are sometimes even against the public interest. Without fail, though, they’re supported by the kind of lobbyists and organizations with so much money (and so few principles) that they’re happy to donate to whomever holds power at the moment. Et voilà! bipartisanship.”

Now there’s a somewhat ‘fair and balanced’ statement, surprisingly from Salon. But it goes on to whine about the failure to achieve “PROGRESS” in their twisted view of THE CONSTITUTION. We are a “REPUBLIC” not a “democracy”!!

Some truth in the article. Yes, the turtle is a crony capitalist whore who will use any and all means to advance the agenda of his cronies. No, Ted Cruz has nothing to do with it.

Drop the kneejerk antagonism to conservatism and it would be a pretty good article.

OMFG... this is the first Salon piece that at least on the surface, in skimming the excerpt... THE WRITER NAILS IT.

Still, I refuse to click to that site. Every visit drops my IQ 30 points and requires 30 hours of listening to Mark Levin to regain it.

I would, generally speaking, rather write about someone else.

This the second of two leftist media promotions of McConnell.

It’s being done for a reason. The reason is because McConnell is following orders from his masters to their satisfaction.

1. Full DHS Funding including funding for the President’s Executive Amnesty (passed in late March 2015).

2. Confirmation of Lynch who has testified that she will forego the rule of law and support the President’s Executive Amnesty (confirmed in late April 2015).

McConnell has thus delivered the US Congress to those that are ordering illegal amnesty for tens of millions and who intend to use this amnesty to fundamentally transform America.

The leftist media publications that to date are building up support for McConnell are ‘The Hill’ and ‘Salon’. There will be more.

‘Politico’ will weigh in soon if they haven’t already. And note that Politico was revealed last month to be supported via subscriptions from the federal government. So they are in business to write what the President’s people want them to write and do so at the expense of the American people.

Control of these leftist media outlets will likely change substantially as they heavily dependent on federal government for their existence ‘if’ Americans can win the battle to put Ted Cruz in the White House. But that’s a big ‘if’ in the arena of illegal amnesty by the millions. That is why the Preliminary Injunction against Executive Amnesty is the critical battleground of today.

Expect the same puppet masters that control McConnell to exert pressure on the US Supreme Court to lift the Preliminary Injunction against their amnesty.

I an unsure how pressure will be exerted against the US Supreme Court but it’s likely a combination that certain Supreme Court Justices have been compromised and influential clerks have sold out.

Just reading the excerpt makes me think that Salon stole the piece from a Right Wing Site and placed McConnells name where Reid was.

Actually, I fail to see much of a difference between the two but at least Reid supports his own base(D) and believes the other side(R) should be annihilated —
then again, I believe McC has the same attitude to R’s that are not members of GOPe.

Sounds like Mitch might have been the inspiration for Netflix’s brilliant political series, House of Cards, starring Kevin Spacey. The House, of course, is the House of Reps, and Spacey plays Frank Underwood (note the initials) the majority whip. In the series, he is a Dem. No matter, both sides are equally and utterly corrupt.

You can get the first two seasons at your library free. Or buy it from AMZ http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_ss_i_1_9?url=search-alias%3Dmovies-tv&field-keywords=house+of+cards&sprefix=House+of+%2Caps%2C221

I saw Spacey on Charlie Rose. He said yes, THIS sitting administration is every bit as bad as the one depicted in the series. And yes, we have had (wink wink) bisexual presidents. Oh my.

McConnell looks more like an old woman than any other Senator, including the old women. The most testosterone-free face in Washington.

The only thing I would quibble with him here is that he left out Reid and Pelosi... and Boner and Obama and the Supremes and company.

Rush and Levin are right. It’s become the Establishment vs the People.

How you reverse it, I haven’t a clue short of...pitchforks.

Yeah, the problem is that their solution is to replace these “ciphers” with avowed fascists like Grimes.
