This man is a gross embarrassment, and
truth be told, the Republican party is full of such-like examples. This
goes to further underline the premise of Mark R.Levin’s book, The
Liberty Amendments, that the power hub in Washington needs to be
circumvented with the states re-exerting their sovereignty and rights
and call for a state convention (read = meeting) and amend the
constitution.
Doing away with the 17 amendment, which
would place the senate back into the hands of state legislatures, to be
appointed, to represent their interests at the national level, is in my
opinion, one of the greatest steps mentioned in his book. Obamacare
would never have been passed, as well as a host of other socialist
legislation if senators were duty bound to fulfill the will of their
state legislatures.

John McCain Appeases
Daren Jonescu
After twenty-four hours of Ted Cruz
acting like a man — a man who sees his country on the brink of expiring —
the Democrats have pulled the Senate floor out from under him. And as
has become the custom, they have been aided in their bullying by Senator
John McCain.
As Charles Schumer was about to scold
Cruz for “trampling on the rights of his colleagues,” he interrupted
himself to yield the floor to McCain. For a moment, there was confusion
over whether the time yielded would be his own or the Republicans’, but
the Democrat leadership quickly jumped in to express its pleasure at
allowing McCain to speak under any conditions. That is, they knew he was
going to do some of their dirty work for them, thus lending credibility
to their authoritarianism. And so he did.
McCain then moved on to address a
particular point made by Cruz during his overnight session. Cruz,
responding to the establishment pundits who have so viciously attacked
and mocked him of late, compared the view that his actions are worthless
because ObamaCare is going to be funded anyway to Neville Chamberlain
and other British appeasers who resisted calls for forceful action
against Hitler on the grounds that he was too powerful to be confronted
directly.
McCain expressed mock outrage at this
characterization, claiming that Cruz had dishonored all the men who
fought and defeated Hitler, including his own grandfather and father.
Huh? How does referring to Hitler’s appeasers dishonor his
non-appeasers, exactly? Oh yes, this is John McCain — we should not be
looking for rationality or factual accuracy here.
