Democrat response:
"What’s happening here just doesn’t wash. It doesn’t pass the smell test."

I laughed and laughed reading this story.  Then I laughed some more

I'm still laughing...

Hell, the Democrats ran a fake candidate for president in 2008 and he won.

Every once & a while, I think a "legislator and bureaucrat lottery" is the answer.  It would be conscription, but for a term or two in office.  I doubt any incompetents' damage would be worse than the very competent career pols.

Robert Kagan's lecture on ancient Greece reminded me of my notion and demonstrated an example of it working over time.

You and me both.  Thanks for sharing.

The mockery that is en mass pure by party voting deserves to be showcased for ridicule.

If cowardly and dishonorable men sometimes shoot unarmed men with army pistols or guns, the evil must be prevented by the penitentiary and gallows, and not by a general deprivation of a constitutional privilege.

Hey you kids!! Get off my lawn!!!

They keep making this eternal vigilance thing harder and harder.  Protecting the 2nd amendment is like playing PACMAN - there's no pause button so you can go to the bathroom.

Rumor is that there are SEIU backed folks being added to ballots as "tea party" candidates in numerous jurisdictions.  The idea being to rob votes.  Turnaround is a female dog, no?

Given that the Democratic Party pretty much invented American party politics back in the Jacksonian era, the good guys are unlikely to think of anything they haven't already tried.

And why do the Democrats care who the Green Party runs ?  If it's a problem, then why is the Green Party crying foul....

(sorry, it's hard to type with tears in my eyes, I was laughing so hard !!!0

Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.
