Yep. We need a house cleaning in the worst sort of way.
I knew a guy who ran Jerry Brown’s campaign in Texas. He told me that in 1991 a meeting was called to see who was going to run for the democrat party nomination in 1992. At the time Old Man Bush was at 90% approval ratings. The only two who showed up was Brown and Clinton.
Clinton’s plan was to run in ‘92 not thinking he would win but would be the front runner in ‘96.
Then all of a sudden “read my lips, no new taxes” started to take it’s toll and Perot showed up and Bush quit. Clinton was elected. That’s why I think a deal was cut.
On election night of 1992 I told my wife “George Bush Jr. will be the next president after Clinton and Hillary will follow him.” She thought I was nuts since he hadn’t even been elected governor yet. W was president behind Clinton.
I think Hillary had it in the bag until a powerful group, including Harry Reid and Bill Ayers, saw it was time to put in a Marxist and a black man would do the trick. He had made his name known as the keynote speaker at one of the nominating conventions earlier. I think it was at Kerry’s nomination. The powers got hold of him and made him president.
And I’ve always thought that Bush II helped a lot and we know McCain was a big help.
So, if I’m right and the original machine is back in power, and the Clintons sure have a lot of money, Hillary will be the next president just as planned but 8 years delayed. The plan is for Jeb to be after her. I don’t think she will get but one term like old man Bush got.
I sure hope I’m wrong and Trump or Cruz gets in. But we have to remember Cruz doesn’t have the money and Trump doesn’t have near as much money as the Clinton Foundation has.
I'll be happy enough if Cruz winds up as the VP to Trump. After eight years of Trump shaking things up in DC, Ted will be perfectly positioned to take the restoration of our constitutional republic to the next level.
They may already be planning that very thing. Remember the closed door meeting they had recently? They're cooking something up.
not me alone. not even the great Ted alone. but with God, brother, all things are possible.
i’m going to keep plowing the field i’ve chosen and
hope Ted joins me. it’s the only field left for me to plow, given what i believe (that the uni-party is corrupt).
after all you gotta do your best to seek out what God wants you to do and then you’ve gotta have faith that He is a rewarder of them who diligently seek Him.
nice talking to you. God bless.
Formidable looking, aren’t they?
Great pics!
Yes, I recall conversations along those line..regarding the power brokers.
I keep thinking, cycle after cycle that one day the public will rise up and deny them their plans.
It seems to me that the last time that happened was Reagan.
I hope it happens again in ‘16. But all I have is a hope, After Obama’s re-election it took the wind out of my hoped for the US.
Yes...and I like that look!
They got a sure battle to fight now....it’s not going to be pretty by any means. Look how the Senate Republicans did Cruz and Lee today.....to teach the a lesson they have to “play by their rules”.....squashing Cruz’z and Lees two great amendents as “out of order” to prove whose the boss.
And you know...they really don’t care that it makes them look bad or that their hated. They have nothing to loose as they see it....it’s “Their Congress”...we are the spectators only.
Tell David Brat about the your analysis that money trumps message, no pun intended.
Give me US Constitutional government or give me death? USConstitution provided life and prosperity, more than freedom.
A bomb thrower of truth. Old guard pols hate truth. They created the mess we are in.
I think the questions about Mitt are, would he be better than 0 on national defense; yes. Would he be better than 0 on the economy; yes. Would he be better than 0 on foreign policy; yes. Would he be better than 0 Supreme Court justices; yes. I could go on but it is simply conjecture. While a bit off the subject the mendacity of many of our elected officials is beyond belief even to a jaded old bastard like myself. The house and senate leadership come to mind. When senators and congressmen lie to you straight to you face, on a consistent basis, we are in a new era. These people seem to have no moral compass what so ever. Have a good week FReeper.
I didn’t see any reports of him siding with the good guys on this particular day, but that can’t help his candidacy. He supported Mitch’s re-election for whatever reason and he has to be ticked about Mitch’s behavior since his election. I would be. But I would never have supported Mitch in the first place..
I don’t think Mitt’s record informs for many of the issues here. It is beyond question in my mind that Mitt would be far better on nation defense, the economy, the border, Supreme Court, spending etc. Sadly there is no way to know with certainty. My conjecture is as viable as yours.
I suppose there is "no way to know" if one refuses to Look.
You are ignoring the clear parallels and direct linkages to those areas of policy in Mitts established record. The only question is, why? Are you too prideful to admit you compromised your conservative values by supporting the greasy liberal in the last election?
No Windflier I am not. I am fully aware of Romney’s record. And yes I did vote for Mitt in the last election. I supported another candidate but he didn’t win. If you really believe there is no difference between 0 and Romney you are no where near as savvy as I thought you were. I believe you and many other conservatives are sick of being betrayed and simply cannot figure out how to fight back effectively.
Respectfully disagree. Ross Perot put Clinton in the White House.
Interesting. Especially since the Bushes and the Clintons are good “friends” now. Hmmmm.
We can agree to disagree, but when a bad candidate loses momentum, the vacuum will be filled.
