The fat lady is practicing her scales
wnd.com ^ | 8/22/2014 | Burt Prelutsky

Posted on 08/22/2014 5:39:55 AM PDT by rktman

I don’t think there is any way to overestimate the importance of the mid-term elections. Although I wish I could view the world through nonpartisan eyes, Barack Obama and Harry Reid have conspired to make that impossible. I’m just hoping that a sufficient number of Americans come out of their collective coma before the fat lady has a chance to warble “Nearer My God to Thee” at this nation’s funeral.

The trouble is that we have a president who seems to lie awake nights trying to come up with new ways to destroy America. For openers, he is terrified – partly because of his liberal base and partly because of his own questionable background – to be confrontational toward the Islamists who are enthusiastically waging war on us and our allies. So even as he does the right thing in Iraq by trying to prevent the barbarians from exterminating Christians and Kurds, he keeps assuring those who are out to create a caliphate that we are limiting our response.

Well put Burt. As to the list, it appears that Mr. Paul is starting to be more and more like his dad. Some ideas are good others are like WHAT? Consistency folks.

Unless you consider massive, unabashed, unprecedented voter fraud, with the MSM laying down the cover story that “Ferguson just turned out an unusually high number of black voters”.

Don’t count on the GOP to offer any road blocks to Soetoro.

Yep, never underestimate voter fraud, that really scares me. This barrel of snakes will not think twice about it and probably already have stolen countless elections in the past that way. I hope I’m paranoid but I doubt it. That would explain why libs / minorities get so freaked out about voter ID, voter ID would/should curb voter fraud quite a bit.

Our voting system is now so corrupt I would be surprised if we retake the senate. Just ask President Romney.

Apples don’t fall far from trees and that has always been my lingering thought about Dr. Rand Paul.

“I’m just hoping that a sufficient number of Americans come out of their collective coma before the fat lady has a chance to warble “Nearer My God to Thee” at this nation’s funeral.”

As long as we have voters who DEMAND absolute “purity” of the credentials of a Republican nominee, there is reason to fear.

It is precisely because of these purists we have the America destroying butt wipe in the WH. Plenty of them reside right here on the FR forums.

I wonder how proud they still feel about their precious commitment to perfect conservatism at all costs?

LO, you seem to be abscessed with my “wazzoo”. Could it be you have tendencies in that direction my “perfect Conservative” friend.

Never mind, as America falls around you in ruins you can stand proudly by, content and smug within yourself and loudly proclaim you stood by your principles, even if it did ruin the lives of millions of others.

Good for you.

except the congress voted 39 or perhaps 41 time to eliminate Obama care.

For the blind that cannot see, such needs to be pointed out
