No, I’m just an anti-Semitic Paultard hater.

I got to vote against Petershead back when he ran in 2002 for Attorney General. He'll do what he's told from Reid, just like how he does what Pelosi tells him to do.

I voted against Marky Mark twice already. Things always come in threes. I think he wants to be governor.

Paultard Amash

You people need to stop with the Paultard B.S.

Rand Paul is now the flagbearer for conservative libertarianism.

So let it be written, so let it be done.

“You people need to stop with the Paultard B.S.”


I usually call Ron Paul cultists “Paulistinians” instead of “Paultards,” but I prefer to call Justin Amashinejad a Paultard because (i) “Paulistinian” might mislead people into thinking that I’m referring to the Congressman Amash’s ancestry instead of his membership in the L. Ron Paul Cult and (ii) Amash is dumb enough to live up to the Paultard name.

“So let it be written, so let it be done.”


Justin Amashinejad probably thinks that the Pharaoh was quoting L. Ron Paul when he said that in The Ten Commandments.

And, for the record, Rand Paul is ten times smarter than Justin Amash. Rand’s biggest problem is that Paul gene that is sure to pop up every once in a while and make him do something stupid.

People in MI will be so sad; many won’t be able to sleep at night without Levin there “taking care” of them.

The early bird gets the worm.

I got an update for you already, Bosutany says he’s not running in LA.

While on paper he’s an ideal candidate, I’m glad. And entirely unsurprised since it would be out of character for a man who tried to get a congressional map passed that could have led to a 2nd democrat in order to make a slightly more favorable seat for himself to run against an incumbent Senator even a highly vulnerable one.

I want to see Jeff Landry take on Landrieu (presuming she doesn’t also retire — hard to believe she will have 18 years under her belt since she initially stole her first race).

Yeah, I saw that Boustany announced he wouldn’t run for the Senate. Freaking coward. As a Protestant from Acadiana, he would have won by not letting Landrieu carry Baptists in North LA or Catholics in South LA, but, as Impy said, he didn’t twist all those arms to keep his CD intact if he was going to run only one more time there.

As for Jeff Landry, I agree with DJ that it would be divine justice if he was elected to the Senate in 2014 after getting shafted in redistricting last year. But as much as I like Landry, and believe that he would make a great Senator, I can’t pretend that he would be our strongest challenger to the execrable Mary Landrieu. Landry is largely unknown outside of his immediate bailliwick, and only has 2-years experience in Congress, and his only prior political experience was losing a state senate election in 2007.

Of course, some will say that we won’t need to bring our A game to beat Mary Landrieu. But we’ve thought Landrieu was dead meat before, and she somehow cons or cheats her way to victory. Even with how LA has moved towards the GOP over the past decade, it seems to me, based on the 2012 election results, that a lot of the blacks who left the state after Katrina have returned, and Mary might be able to parlay her brother’s inexplicable popularity into a winning coalition. Maybe Landry has what it takes to win, but I think he’ll have to prove it in the campaign trail.

“I’ll have to see who’s running before I make my choice. I hope it’s not Candice Miller. She’ll just do what she’s told by McConnell.”

I can see CM as one day being the first woman POTUS.

Long, long over due. If ever there was a perfect example for “term limits” on old socialist, Carl Levin is it! This piece of crap has been in the US Senate so long pushing his socialist agenda, e.g. socialized medicine etc., no one would run against this entrenched socialist.

Good riddance, hope a real American patriot will step up and take his place! Paging the tea party!

I believe this time around, the “gun control” push by the liptards will solidify all elections for American patriots! the last time the libtards pushed gun control (assault weapons ban) in 1994, the libtards lost control of both the US senate and Us House of Representatives with the republicans taking control for the first time in 47 years!

Lets hope the liptards over played their hand again by pushing gun control. As a side note, numerous people I have talked to, even some liberal leaning, are really pissed at liberals for pushing gun control and using dead children as a backdrop for same in the quest for full confiscation of firearms from Americans.

Anyway, I do believe the gun control issue has pushed many against the liberal left this time around. Only time will tell.

with all due respect, you were listening to msnbc? Anyway, I do get your point. The left has to tell themselves lies and live in a fantasy world, e.g. no firearms in the hands of Americans, or as Mark Levin likes to call it a liberal “utopia” for which nothing they can do will ever create such a world.

This is exactly why I believe the liptards have over played their hand, they also like to continue to claim, majority support for “universal back ground checks” and “registration of all firearms.” Without a full “federal firearm registry data base” nothing the liptards ever do or pass on so called gun control will do anything to prevent of solve a crime in the future! In fact, their own DOJ came out recently with a memo that stated just that, without complete registry of all firearms and a federal firearm registry data base, along with confiscation of all firearms, no “gun control” legislation will have any impact on gun crimes in the US.

Watch how this is played out, the left will drop all pretense for an “assault weapons ban” and “limited magazine capacity” for a “federal firearm registry data base” (FFRDB) while looking like they have compromised on gun control, when in fact, all they wanted to begin with was the FFRDB to begin with. Then the left can begin the process of firearm confiscation through attrition. In example, anytime an American breaks a law or is charged with a civil infraction, the feds are notified, the FFRDB is then checked for firearms, then the ATFE sends out a Swat Team to locate, seize all firearms in possession of said American. Irregardless of the outcome of such charges, the American in question will then fight for many years for the return of confiscated firearms, since all the federal government has to do is bring forth a bought and paid for psychiatrist to declare the American in question “not mentally fit” to possess a firearm, effectively confiscating those firearms. Moving on to the next victim of federal government confiscation of firearms.

Keep in mind, the federal government cannot confiscate that which they do not know exists, where it is located, or the type of firearm. This they know and are in the process of collecting intelligence on every firearm in the United States, using all assets available to the federal government, even assets you would never believe, including, but, not limited to all current background checks on purchase of firearms, ammunition sales, online purchases, google, public domains like FR, children in public schools, churches, your neighbors, Fed Ex, US mail persons, libraries, local LE, your drivers license info, medical records being stored electronically, reported injuries from firearms, etc. This was part of the Executive Orders signed by this socialist President. Every time you go to a pistol or long rifle range and sign in, this is electronic info collected by the federal government on you!

Great post!

“Of course, some will say that we won’t need to bring our A game to beat Mary Landrieu.”

We always need our A game. Always.

This potential pickup is too important to be left to the national GOP “leadership”. How’s the MI state party?
