Dem's Bitch McConnel

We Have Met The Enemy ...

UPDATE Senate Republican Leader McConnell Distances Himself From Trump Stances Speaking for myself  a lot of like-minded people, the reason I jumped on the Trump bandwagon early was because his bid was a challenge to the GOP.  They are, I said, a largely useless, self-serving, mollycoddling tribe of lick spittles.  An arm of the Democrat Party, so corruptted by power that there was no way in hell they could, or even want to, fight it out with Soros led ("My name is Legion, for we are many.") one-worlders. So it is then no real surprise that Boner's (and replacement Paul Ryan's) upper house comrade in harm would so quickly show his colors. UPDATE  Paul Ryan, Lindsey Graham, John McCain, Marco Rubio, Jeb Bush Took Campaign Cash from Soros...

Murder, First Degree

The Center for Medical Progress released a new video this morning — the 9th in its series of videos catching the Planned Parenthood abortion business selling aborted babies and their body parts. This latest video catches a Planned Parenthood medical director discussing how the abortion company sells fully intact aborted babies — including one who “just fell out” of the womb. And, This ... Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell undercut threats by fellow Republicans to hold the budget process hostage in an effort to defund Planned Parenthood, saying conservatives do not have enough support in Congress to cut off the group  ....

Trumping Boner

"... ousting Boehner"

So far I've pretty much ignored the 2015 Whack-a-Mole campaign season.  Try as I might, I just cannot concoct a believable scenario where Jimmy Stewart is elected president after Air Force General James Mattoon Scott ousts the Manchurian candiate president, and throws the lot down a volcano.  Only Donald Trump makes noise that interests me, and because he's thus scared the crap out of entrenched Republicans there seems to be a chance of removing some of the party's colon cancer (Boehner Blastoma). To wit: Nonetheless, the members I have spoken with suddenly see Trump as useful. Much of Trump’s support comes from voter anger at repeated Republican betrayals in Washington. The grievances of Trump voters participating in the Republican primary process echo the grievances of most conservatives, but are louder. As Jeb Bush falters in the polling, ousting Boehner is another way to help mitigate the rise of Trump’s campaign. While McConnell cannot be touched because of a lack of “motion to vacate the chair” in the Senate, tossing Boehner, some speculate, would be a strong signal that Republicans are getting their act together to fight as conservatives. Said one mid-western Congressman to me, “Donald Trump is giving us another avenue to sell members on tossing Boehner. Suddenly, knowing what might come otherwise, the Speaker is expendable.”  [Full] True, Sarcoma McConnell cells will survive (a trip to Lourds may be necessary), but it's a start.

So much for that hope ...

Don't we?

Mitch McConnell is Poison

How Toxic is Mitch McConnell? FreedomWorks flips in Neb. Senate race “ In a major blow to former Republican state Treasurer Shane Osborn’s candidacy for Nebraska Senate, national conservative group FreedomWorks is withdrawing its endorsement and backing his main primary rival, Midland University President Ben Sasse, instead. At issue, FreedomWorks President Matt Kibbe said in a statement, is the unspoken support Osborn is believed to have from Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.). Sasse now has the backing of nearly all the major national conservative groups, including the Club for Growth and Senate Conservatives Fund. He's also drawn the support of conservative leaders ranging from former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin (R) to Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah).  [The HILL] Great on several levels.  Candidate relegated to the trash heap because he is suspected of being supported by his party's Senate Minority Leader.  How's that for sending a message to the GOP?  Precious. ”

Oh My Sen. Mitch McConnell's latest campaign video hit all the necessary  Kentucky high points: horse racing, bluegrass — and Duke basketball?

Marshall Pétain v. Mitch McConnell

“ Mitch McConnell and NRSC to Host D.C. Fundraiser for ObamaCare Sympathizer Thom Tillis  Tonight, the National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC) headquarters is hosting a fundraiser for North Carolina moderate and Senatorial candidate Thom Tillis. Headlining the fundraiser invite was a "who's who" of beltway establishmentarians, including Senator Mitch McConnell, Senator Lamar Alexander, and Senator Richard Burr. Attendees must pay a minimum of $1,000 per PAC or $500 per person to rub elbows with the D.C. elite. According to the Washington Post, NRSC Chairman Jerry Moran (R-Kan.) explained today that playing in races like this one are a priority because the "map and opportunities have expanded dramatically in a year, in part because of the consequences of the Affordable Care Act." This is an ironic statement, given that Thom Tillis effectively endorsed ObamaCare as a "great idea that can't be paid for." "A lot can be learned about a man by looking at the company he keeps," commented Matt Kibbe, President of FreedomWorks for America. "While fiscal conservative Greg Brannon is meeting with grassroots activists from across the state of North Carolina, Thom Tillis will be in Washington D.C., rubbing elbows with the establishment Republicans who failed to take a stand in the battle to defeat ObamaCare." "North Carolinians have to decide, do you want a Senator like Greg Brannon who will fight alongside conservatives like Mike Lee, Ted Cruz, and Rand Paul on the Senate floor to defeat ObamaCare? Or do you want a Senator who schmoozes alongside progressive Republicans like Mitch McConnell and Lamar Alexander at swanky cocktail parties?" All begging the question:  What was worse:  The Nazis occupying France, or Marshall Pétain's Vichy government?  Same thing.  ”

11.5 Million Words

“

Two Things 11.5 million words and two enablers -- Bureaucracies in the Obama Administration have thus far published approximately 11,588,500 words of final Obamacare regulations, while there are only 381,517 words in the Obamacare law itself. That means unelected federal officials have now written 30 words of regulations for each word in the law. [MFCS] Gird your Loins --  Ted Cruz, House Republicans Meet in Secret at Tortilla Coast.       The deal that is materializing in the Senate is one that Cruz and his House compatriots are unlikely to endorse. But it appears to be one that can pass both chambers with  bipartisan support.

McConnell Backs Obamacare against Tod Cruz

“ Mitch McConnell Is Why We Can't Have Nice Things MELTDOWN! GOP BOSSES' PHONES UNPLUGGED Mr. Cruz Goes to Washington Following the epic, 21-hour speech by Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, supporting the defunding of Obamacare, either voters made so many calls to establishment Republicans that their phone lines melted, or those GOP leaders took their phones off the hook. Even in this age of digital wizardry and limitless voicemail, callers could not get through at all to Sen. Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky. A message said the senator was experiencing a high volume of calls and directed members of the public to call back later or visit his website. It was the same story with the man who was the face of the GOP in the 2008 elections, former GOP presidential candidate Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz. His phone was off the hook, too. Callers got a message stating his voicemail box was full. The Arizona senator apparently had other matters on his mind during the Cruz speech, tweeting, “Final episode of #Broadchurch tonight – one of the most entertaining shows on TV right now.” That prompted conservative commentator Michelle Malkin to tweet, “Meanwhile, McCain is tweeting about a TV show. See the problem here, America?” Callers to Minority Whip Sen John Cornyn, R-Texas, also got a message saying the line was busy, but at least those callers were sent to voicemail. McConnell announced Monday he does not support the attempt by Cruz to defund Obamacare. [Full] Said and Done.  Well, almost. There's this from Red State The Great Big GOP Establishment Obamacare Lie ”
