for the alpacalypse?

Cloture was filed and this starts the clock ticking to Friday’s procedural vote to break a filibuster and sets up a Saturday confirmation vote.

oh, the alpacalypse indeed...

gotta admit, mitch machiavelli is an effective sonofabitch

YES!

Sun Ra’s version = old emergency alert system

Yo La Tengo = new emergency alert system

The DEMS Are Growing Desperate.

Sadly, I see where groups of young women are laying down in the streets, blocking traffic in hopes of.....?? I hope they don’t get arrested because life can be difficult enough without having a record.

Way back when GW Bush appointed Kavanaugh a Federal Judge, no one said boo about it. No one crying about Kavanaugh throwing ice and their abortion rights. Kavanaugh underwent background checks then and nothing came up.

Why???

Because the DEMS didn’t fight it.

I wonder if Mrs Blasey was too busy flying around and living life to be hampered with being a victim? Maybe now she has a book deal??

How many of you would lose your jobs if your boss saw a picture of you smoking a joint 5-10-20 years ago......wonder how many reading this plan on getting high this weekend?

bitey 5

c'mon, Melanoma says be better

This whole fucking thing is a pissing contest.

Republicans will win at pissing.

Um, congrats I guess.

wait

you read the stuff i post?

lol

I just saw video of a Women’s March leader and she was loudly criticizing “white wives and their white husbands” for supporting Trump.

The crowed started booing and she demanded that all Trump supporters not be allowed to be comfortable at the dinner table or in public.

It’s moving from a pissing contest to a shit show!

It started last night with the arrest of Jackson Cosko.

I’ve said it multiple times in this thread......people are allowing themselves to be consumed by bitterness and bitterness always leaves you with a bad taste in your mouth.

If Kavanaugh is confirmed Saturday, I guess the left will be left with the Mueller investigation......does anyone remember Mueller?

Some are consumed with bitterness. Some are consumed with patriotism.

And it's pretty crazy that you think the left consists of raging, out of control psychos while the right are all quaint and quiet.

What do you make of this meme which is so popular among Trumpians? Funny? Switch the word "democrat" with "republican." Still funny?

I had not seen that......but it’s good for a chuckle on a Thursday evening : )

YES - I would say patriotism is better than bitterness, but one should never allow it to cause harm to themselves or others!

Possibly you can help me remember when the Republicans had constituents confront Democratic Senators in elevators or had a staffer make phone numbers and addresses public......because I don’t recall that happening?

Maybe that time when a Republican who owned a restaurant refused service to someone on Obama’s staff?

Just last weekend Texas Senator Ted Cruze and his wife were chased out of a Washington DC restaurant because Democratic constituents wouldn’t leave them alone.

I’m not trying to represent Republicans as doing everything right -actually, far from it- but I don’t recall this sort of behavior in recent years......but any help remembering is greatly appreciated!!!

Procedural vote on Kavanaugh locked in at 10:30 am Friday.

Senate meets at 9:30 am Friday. By rule, cloture "ripens" for one hour after the Senate meets.

IF cloture is invoked (around 11 am)......the 30 hour clock begins.

Confirmation vote would occur around 5 pm Saturday.

the patriots who fought for independence harmed themselves and others

eggs, omelettes, something something.

but preferrably for a winning strategy and not foolishness


do you recall your dear leader making lindsey grahams cell phone number public or did you forget?


here’s a tow truck driver leaving a woman stranded for her bernie sanders stickers

http://time.com/4320428/bernie-sande...-donald-trump/

i just googled “democrats refused service” and that popped up on top

you know how to google i assume...


hahahaha. he can microwave fish at home

seriously, fuck him


really? where and when did you go far from it? honest question.

show us.


i guess all this time you’ve been in a coma?

i know, i know it’s serious.:D

YES - I did forget......was that really in 2015?

Such hatred for Ted Cruz??
I’ll be voting for him next month!



NO - you show me!

Because you can go back to the beginning of this thread and you won’t find me banging the drum for anyone.

Matter of fact, I was 99% absent from this thread until March/April of this year and it’s mostly been about procedure, evidence and the process in general.

I shared my opinions which are generally conservative.

You’ll see where many here have cursed me and called me an idiot, but you won’t find where I’ve attacked anyone or made it personal.

yes it’s true, you havent attacked anyone personally. [eta: but you sound like you’re threatening the potheads, which is kinda creepy]

i don’t know about you not beating the drum for anyone—your purportedly impartial posts about procedure and evidence and process are a bit disingenuous, i’d say at times even cynical. your comments are evidently partisan and biased. at times i don’t know if you’re serious or trolling. anyway we all have our biases, but it’s funny to see you claim you have none in your posts. cmon... just own it.

but anyway i haven’t called you names. i still believe you’re a decent and good person even though some of your information is a bit warped ha ha ha. i blame trump for making indecency great again, and hannity and what’s the idiot with the bow tie, and that clown from infowars, and others, for polluting the airwaves and normalizing lies and alternative facts, which innocents like you somehow believe.

in any case, what can i tell you, i support democrats, specialists in failure, and i don’t pretend otherwise. yeah. i own my biases.

it’s a big tent party though so i cant agree with everything every democrat says. some here even put me on ignore lol.

hate for ted cruz? that’s the province of his senate colleagues, who know and hate him best. and i mean colleagues from his own party. me, i dont spend much time thinking about him. but yeah, fuck him, hahahahaha. lying ted. who called him lying ted? hmmmm....

I wish!

You're just anti-Democrat (of all stripes--symbols is right; the party isn't a monolith so you'r generalizations usually don't hold up) and blindly pro-Trump.

Trump believes in a state controlled economy (tarrifs, bailouts, picking winners and losers) and is hardly conservative in his personal life. Hell, I'm more conservative than he is.

No true conservative supports Trump.

Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg ruled Friday that the Supreme Court would not step in at this point to stop two top officials from having to sit for depositions about the Trump administration’s decision to add a citizenship question to the 2020 census.

On the Kavanaugh vote:

Expect the Senate to begin the confirmation vote between 3:45 and 4:00 pm et.

Senate clerk will verbally call the roll of all 100 senators alphabetically.
Senators will rise from their desks and vote yea or nay.

If any demonstrations in the public gallery of the Senate chamber when the vote begins, the Sergeant at Arms will remove those protesters immediately.


Anticipation on the final vote tally barring any absences (besides Daines) or surprises......50 yeas, 48 nays with one senator voting present. Daines is NOT counted in the vote tally because you can only vote yes, nor or present.
Daines’s absence is noted.

A few women that I’ve admired and respect have posted and shared things today that boggle the mind:

We Must Disobey
We Must Disrupt
We Must Make Patriarchy Fear Women

White supremacy and patriarchy will not end if Kavanaugh is not confirmed.
Defy, disobey and disrupt white supremacy and patriarchy at every turn!
............................................

I can understand privilege, but white supremacy?
Hard to fathom this approach will help them in November.

Ha! Hang in there, Ruthie. Btw, that biopic on her is pretty good

50-48......it is finished!

Prior to the U.S. Senate’s vote on the Supreme Court nominee, a total of 164 individuals were arrested.

As these individuals are stripped search, documentation made of their birthmarks and scars......and then they have to put on clothing that has been worn by all the other inmates over the previous months and years......will they still feel like it was worth it?

Of course, if they can afford bail, they can miss out on all that fun......but still have hundreds/thousands in court fees and legal expenses. If they can’t afford bail, it’s a long time until Monday morning.

go, Bitey, go!

Wyoming gets two Senators and has a population a quarter the size of Chicago? That is some tyrannical bullshit right there.

Now that it’s finished, let’s hit’em with some truth:

Kavanaugh was the LEAST conservative on the short list
Kavanaugh is horrible on the 4th Admenment
Pro-Patriot Act
Defended Obamacare as a “tax”
Doubtful “it’s a State issue” is in his vocabulary

Republicans may find themselves disappointed
Democrats should have kept their mouths shut!

So, tell me again how Brett Kavanaugh is the victim?





Smellyanne says : “This is Judge Kavanaugh now,” she said. “It could be anybody by next week. It could be any man in any position.”

Leonard replies:

"So every man should worry? Sorry, but I don’t.

And all this solicitude for my well-being is as misguided as it is misplaced. In the last 40-plus years, all of my assistants, most of my bosses, and many of my colleagues, students and closest friends have been women. Yet I live in no fear that one of them will accuse me of sexual harassment or rape. See, I have a little trick: It’s called not committing sexual harassment or rape. I’ve found that it works pretty much every time."

A Great First Step To Having Charges Filed Against Maxine Waters


Unrelated ......Sen. Collins confirms:

With the exception of her (Blasey Ford) trusted "hippocampus," nobody corroborated her story!

well, shit, yesterday i drove hundreds of miles to the liquor store, today i’m enjoying the fruits of my labor and i gotta say carpano antica formula makes an amazing negroni

oh yeah—i’m on fucking break from politics today haaahaaaahaaaa

watching season 1 of “american gods”

the west wing got me through a good chunk of the bush administration as i recall.

thank fuck for fiction. a soothing balm.

DEM’s licking their wounds with a perverted sense of what Justice truly is.

Pelosi:

The GOP’s decision to confirm Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court has wounded the very soul of justice in our country.

Amid our heartbreak, however, we renew our resolve and determination. We are awed by the dignity and bravery of Dr. Christine Blasey Ford

A man or woman, must always be presumed innocent unless, and until proven guilty," Trump said at Kavanaugh's swearing-in ceremony on Monday night. "And with that, I must state that you, sir, under historic scrutiny, were proven innocent."


*Koff koff Central Park Five koff koff*
CALLING BULLSHIT FUCK YOU

the carnival barker has always been as unprincipled as it comes, which is the secret his success conning the uninformed

thank you for exercising the faculties of reason and accurate memory in the face of demagoguery

unfortunately those are no longer sufficient against the atrocity-in-chief.

i don’t know what would work except— vote in these midterms for a viable candidate.

Nikki Jailey:

"It's been eight years of intense time and I'm a believer in term limits," she adds. "I think you have to be selfless enough to know when you step aside"

WTF 8 years? I haven't been sleeping, NOR have I been dreaming of Nikki Jailey

Threatening potheads?

The fact that you DON’T KNOW or can’t tell if I’m being serious or trolling = THANK YOU!!!

Partisan
Biased
Even cynical (rarely)

I’m okay with those descriptions!
I view myself more of a conservative constitutionalist


How is my info a bit warped? I don’t make stuff up and I try to be as accurate as I know how. As I’ve stated numerous times here before......it’s okay if we disagree and I’m happy to admit when I get something wrong!

Why do you keep bringing up Hannity and Infowars? Please show me where I used information from them?

Kanye West Is What Happens When Negroes Don’t Read

Soooooo, are black people really going to trade Kanye West for.....?
Is the panel saying Kanye is siding with Trump because he is mentally ill?
And they follow that up by pointing out he’s been hospitalized in the past?
Are they making light of mental illness?
Token Negro = Dumb Negro?

The Lefts stance on:

don’t make fun of women
don’t make light of rape
don’t be racist
don’t joke about mental illness (listen how the show host can’t control his laughter)

Can the Left —liberals— make a race turn on itself?

How many of you would be moaning and groaning if a white person said these things about Maxine Madusa?

Can you spell: H Y P O C R I S Y

Trump likes to go to places that have not seen the schtick live. He's been to Fuckursister, Tennessee so why go back? He wants to give another local bund group a chance to goose step around waving their middle finger at the press pit and yelling "lock her up" and "build the wall." The rubes like that and they buy the merch. So he goes to Braindead, Iowa. Next week it will be in Shitferbrains, PA and so on. It's all part of the Big Grift. It's all he knows.

Karen Pence Campaigns For GOP House Candidate Who Longs For Return To Criminalization Of Homosexuality, wants wives to submit





https://www.rollcall.com/news/politi...tting-husbands

http://www.joemygod.com/2018/10/11/k...homosexuality/

Karen Pence, wife of Vice President Mike Pence, spent time this week in North Carolina campaigning for Mark Harris, a right-wing pastor who upset incumbent Rep. Robert Pittinger in the GOP primary in May.

Harris: “In one generation you and I have witnessed this country sliding from a nation who once shared a moral vision based on Judeo-Christian ethic to a nation floundering in moral decay. In one generation we have watched our nation who once believed in lifelong marriages to the same spouse to a divorce rate now well over 50 percent. We have watched in one generation where homosexuality was once criminalized to now we see the criminalization of Christianity.”

Harris is also a member of the Family Research Council’s Watchmen On The Wall group of extremist pastors and regularly appears with North Carolina’s viciously anti-LGBT Benham brothers.

TGIF......let’s look back at the week that was:

Democrats saw:
Brett Kavanugh confirmed to the Supreme Court
Kanye West give Trump a hug : )
Black unemployment hit the lowest level EVER
Senate races dramatically tilt towards Republicans

......Democrats responded by rioting and calling Kanye a "dumb negro"

Crooked Hillary Clinton:

“You cannot be civil with a political party that wants to destroy what you stand for and what you care about. That’s why I believe if we’re fortunate to win back the House and or Senate, that’s when civility can start again.”

Sooooo the Left will only be civil when they have the POWER???

This line of thinking is what led to Donald Trump becoming President. NOT BECAUSE Donald Trump had done anything all that great......because of Crooked Hillary and what she represents.

Speaking of our President:

“This election is about your families and your values and what kind of country you want to leave for your children. This election is about keeping America safe, keeping America strong, keeping America proud and keeping America free!”
