Wallace is either dumber than a box of rocks

Or number'na bag-a hammers.

Was he wearing his "smart glasses" at the time?

[Cheerio]

we are finished as a Constitutional Republic. The only question then remaining is will be whether we go out with a whimper or a bang.

I am betting it is a whimper given the apathy of today's culture. Years ago I thought there would have been outrage and a million person march on the District. If I remember correctly Michelle Bachmann could only rouse about 10,000 to protest the passage of SCOTUSCARE on the Capitol grounds. She saw the handwriting on the wall and promptly retired.

[Morgan in Denver]

Good point. Thanks. I had forgotten about the Egypt response.

[Son House]

MEET THE PRESS (NBC): Carson;

More gotcha! Mr Carson, do yourself a favor, recognize the press is not for you except you are a soft-spoken person and they think you are easy for Democrats to beat, that’s why they are so happy to promote you to front runner.

Again, finesse a short answer to Reporter Gotcha and get on with Economics and National Security.

Mr Reporter, wear contacts next-time, the glasses made the interview process seem dull.

[Alas Babylon!]

...AND USING ALL THE POWERS THEY HAVE, including removal of the Senate Fillibuster rule in order to save the Union.

I understand you, but what happens when the idiot voters puts the democrats back in power? Without the filibuster Harry Reid runs roughshod over the Republicans and everything good is quickly reversed.

We need the 17th Amendment repealed.

The Founders meant for the Senate to be a deliberative body of the States, not a super House of Representatives. The 17th moved us sharply from a constitutional republic into democratic mob rule.

Think how many states have conservative people and local government, but elect Leftist democrats to the Senate, just because one or two big liberal cities get to vote and have the same mentality as New York, Los Angeles or Chicago?

Love it or hate it, this was not what the Constitution intended. The Senate was supposed to be the "saucer" in which the hot liquid of the House "cup" could be cooled. Now it's microphone for Chuck U. Schumer and cohorts.

Dirty little secret: we want Hillary to be the nominee and Trump will bring a lot of new Repubs with him.

[NKP_Vet]

Trump will be talking about these polls. Hot off the press.

CBS poll has Trump and Carson at 27% in Iowa, Cruz at 12%

CBS poll has Trump at 40% in South Carolina, Carson at 23% and Cruz at 8%

CBS poll has Trump at 38% in New Hampshire, Carson at 12% and Jeb at 8%

FOX faux "News" and Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio.

Chris Wallace, still with his Smart-glasses, begins with Jim Jordan's
support for Ryan.
Jordan: "We agree with him" but notes they did not go along
with his tyrannical demand to remove Jefferson's option
to remove a Speaker.

On to Benghazi.

Some videos from Thursday, mostly favorable to Hillary.
Wallace: Jordan revealed emails which demonstrated
that Hillary KNEW there was a planned attack
"and not a protest",
and then Wallace says to Jordan,
"(You) didn't come up with much new".

Jordan disagrees and explains how Hillary used,
after the al Qaeda attack, "plain language" that was forthcoming to
other world leaders and Chelsea Clinton,
but not to the American people.
Jordan explains how Hillary has been evasive
and these are new and "relevant things".

Wallace, Hillary's defender and lawyer (as he is for Ryan),
cites Hillary's 'victory lap' and Wallace declares that
the Committee did nothing new. Jordan shakes his head "no",
and begins to correct the FOX-"News"-liar.

With clear English, Rep. Jordan removes Wallace's intestines
with the facts.
Wallace will have nothing to do with this, and to minimize it
Wallace says although the emails were the highlight
of the Hearing (demeaning the rest),
Wallace: "Is that all there is"?

Jordan corrects Wallace yet again, and also importantly
explains that Patrick Kennedy's emails have still not been
received, and Amb Steven's emails were only received
"this week".

Wallace ignores that as usual, and drones on to protect Hillary.
Wallace "What did Hillary do wrong"?

Rep. Jordan points out that "Security was not adequate"
and the Congress and people need "more information
(about) ...that terrible night."

Biased Wallace ignores what he says and odiously continues
to defend Hillary. How come she "had to come in (again)"?

Rep Jordan will have none of this nonsense.
Jordan: There has been "no help from the Administration";
and "Why should it take this long to get (the Amb email
only this week)"?

Wallace ignores Jordan's home run and substantive answer,
and does his classic segue to change the subject;
Wallace switches to the DO"J" ignoring the IRS lying to Congress,
attacking political groups, and funding terrorists.
Jordan: "That (coverup by the DOJ) is just flat out wrong."
Jordan then mentions the corrupt IRS targeting, the coverup by Obama,
and continues with clear information, so
Wallace interrupts him.

Wallace: "Is there anything you can do about it?"
Jordan: "Unfortunately I dont think so.
... Someone was involved in criminal activity
and I think it was Lois Lerner"."

He is in the fishbowl so he has to carry the narrative. The purpose of the inquiry was not to take her down, but to find the truth of what happened and they uncovered mountains of it.

The voters will take her down.

[ROCKLOBSTER]

Thank you very much.

I especially like your line: “With clear English, Rep. Jordan removes Wallace’s intestines with the facts.”

[Kenny]

Did I miss Trump on Face the Nation?

[Morgan in Denver]

As it stands today, you’re probably correct in your predictions. Even though events may change it all.

I also believe there is more support for Trump out there that’s not even considered. Reagan Democrats and the silent majority. I’m seeing Trump support in numerous unlikely places.

[bray]

You would think he would be upset that Rice came on his show and told bold faced lies. It speaks more to his character that he would not protect his show and now he is complicit in the lie.

Says a lot about Fox and why they should be boycotted.

[bray]

Don’t be surprised if a portion of the Commie Sanders crowd move to Trump if he loses. He could become cool very easily.

[Son House]

This gets into what is next for the House Benghazi Committee, watched it yesterday and as I recall, Under Secretary Patrick Kennedy and Defense Secretary Leon Panetta are going to be interviewed, we’ll see if they want ‘public’ hearings too;

FOXNews Greta Van Susteren
Trey Gowdy goes ‘On the Record’ to look back on Hillary Clinton’s testimony
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZMzf-0o4kRw

[Morgan in Denver]

Good point. I had not considered that.

Of course, the whacko left is often not understandable and they don’t always make much sense.

[Son House]

Jordan corrects Wallace yet again, and also importantly explains that Patrick Kennedy's emails have still not been received, and Amb Steven's emails were only received "this week".

Reporter should be asking 'who are Amb Steven's emails addressed to?' And 'How are not the Under Secretary's emails not available, another 'private server'?

States voting in 2016, in chronological order and current or last polls:

March 1, 2016  Virginia  49   Trump 23  6
March 1, 2016  Wyoming  29   Paul 19  5

Note that for whatever reason, the poll for Alaska, Arkansas, Oklahoma and Wyoming does not have Trump at all; Oklahoma was last polled in January; and no one has bothered to poll the Peoples Republic of Vermont at all!

[jjotto]

Just FYI: Iowa doesn’t pick national convention delegates until May 31st.

[patriotspride]

Everybody knows she would peel a skunk off a Texas freeway in the noonday sun and eat it raw if it would give her the White House...............

Better yet an Armadillo..... That shell of theirs would ensure a well baked product.
