So Anderson Cooper responded to Trump's tweet this morning:



Now CNN is trying to say that he was hacked Roll Eyes

Of course he was hacked. The Clinton News Network and their minions would NEVER intentionally do or say something, and then claim that they didn't do or say something.

That would be unpossible.

I can't believe that.

Yeah, getting close to tinfoil territory, there.


Please do not forget how the senate "works" under that slimy asshole! AIR, they only "worked" 15 days in November, and only 10 scheduled for December. And what they consider work, IMO, is if they get out of bed before 1000 hours, and are out of the office (if they even go there) by 1200.

Somewhat more than 300 bills in the senate, and with McNumbnuts leading only about 30 of them have been dealt with. Don't know how many actually were passed on.

So, now we have a flag waving, radical women's rights moron in the senate. And we have people who think, because of BS charges by that glory seeking asshole, so called attorney, using fraudulent "evidence" that this is a good thing.

I am all for women's rights. They should have rights exactly equal to the rights males have. I will not get into their so-called reproductive rights.

And how much damage can they do in 2 years!???

Throw in the independents, democraPs, and RINOs and we are outnumbered! We have major international issues that must be addressed and many of those require senate approval.

Tammy Bruce, last night:

"This is a test for the president," Bruce said Tuesday on FOX News' Hannity. "I think what you've seen with Shelby going against it. Jeff Flake, giving money to this guy. I think the Republicans in the Senate want to lose the Senate. I think they want the president's agenda to fail and the only way to really achieve that is to suddenly become the minority."

"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."

There's something to this....when they had the chance to repeal obamacare this fall, they half-heatedly tried and in my opinion used McCain's NO vote as the excuse that they couldn't go ahead with the repeal, so what are they going to do about the repeal next year, now that they're minus 1 vote. This is going to cause quite a few issues especially in regards to Federal Judges getting through the Senate in 2018, now all it takes is for the dems to peel off 2 republicans for a No vote and the Republic is screwed until after next year's elections.

Tammy Bruce is right, and the truth of what she says is incredibly disturbing.

She has the reputation of being extremely abusive to her staff. It a staffer made that error, I pity the fool.

If she did it - well, she'll probably find a way to blame someone else - but she has a long history of saying dumb stuff. I think it was on Mars that she wondered where was the flag the astronauts planted.

When the allegations started dropping last month and they were talking about trying to force Moore to step aside (before they realized it was too late due to ballots already being printed), they had asked Mo Brooks if he would run in Moore's place and he said he wouldn't. Here is the reason why:



Hope they caught it in time and he makes a full recovery.

Moore was a shitty candidate and had so much bagagge, excluding the perv allegations, that his losing is not a surprise.

My take is that voters in AL didn't want either candidate and the write-ins are what sink Moore. It's a very red state and when they eject their first Dem senator in 25 years this says something.

Nationwide the Republicans are in big trouble. They can't get their shit together but even if they do, people simply don't care for Trump and he had no coattails. No president has ever had these low polling numbers this soon into a presidency and this should be a huge wake up call for him and Republicans in general.

If the Republicans don't get their shit together and show results and positive branding, they will lose the House in 2018 and I believe you will see articles of impeachment filed in 2019 and then you will have a critically damaged president.

The Dems are fucked up on ideology but at least they have a unified voice whereas the Republicans have no unified anything.

I have been saying that the republicans want to be the minority party for a while now. Think of how much easier it makes their political life. Zero responsibility. When nothing gets done (which is what both sides really want) they can blame the other side. When it comes time for reelection? "Vote for me so I can fight for you"! Their pay and benefits stay exactly the same, but they don't have to have anything to show for it. The McConnels, the Grahms of the world aren't going to be the ones voted out for doing nothing. It will be some rookie congress critter somewhere. They'll remain entrenched in DC, earning a living off of the backs of the American people.

They simply DO NOT CARE about you, me, or the country. Period.

You are right about the Republicans, but the other side, the Democrats will fight. They are vicious and will do anything to further their GDC, socialist, anti-America (as founded) agenda.

There remains no single, unified, Republican Party. The various factions are as divided as ever, despite we all having just finishing coming together (briefly) to elect President Trump. The big-government/globalist/establishment types - who actually run the joint, the evangelicals - who want to and think they run the place, and the remaining good ones who know who they work for and who are actually trying to do right by folks and who display the sort of sanely-nationalist/tea-party/regular-folk principles we like with voting records to match, and the overlap between them all is like a Venn diagram drawn by Ray Charles.

And it remains the case that the extremists in each group are fucking it up for everyone. They're all so concerned with shit on the edges that they can't set that aside and work together for a rationally and reasonably designed bill (or candidate or appointee) of any sort that just does what's best for all of us, that favors no particular donor or lobby or faction. Too many special interests and selfish interests are clouding their (Congress') collective judgement. Truly good legislation (or candidates, etc) without such barnacles attached, would sail through with the same resounding and unified support that got us in the WhiteHouse in the first place, if they'd (Congress and the factions) just do the job.

We (the people - namely Republican voters) *just* showed them how, by our coming together to stop Hillary and elect President Trump, and yet - unsurprisingly - Congress continues to *not* follow our example, nee - their matching orders, to our detriment.

Build the damn wall, get to work doing important shit, ignore the Roy Moores of the world, quit taking meetings with lobbyists for even a week, or maybe an extra day a week, get your hands dirty you pampered wankers, that shit is distracting and costly.

Do your damn jobs, Congress. Every damn day. Quit stuffing your fucking pockets, eating fancy meals, pandering to and preaching to your choirs, quit letting your staff do the real work, quit having your staff write and read the proposed legislation...

Do the real job your damn self, fuckers.

We have a problem (about 400 of them, in fact) in the legislative branch, at the top of it.

the Roy Moore clusterfuck is but one symptom, a mere skeeter buzzing about.

Drain the swamp.

Smash the skeeters.

Actually try - even for a minute - to Make America Great Again.

That's America, BTW, in toto, not XYZ, Inc. nor some some Industry with a killer Deer Camp or sweet Jet or that stock tip you've always wanted... America, the whole damn thing.
