    I think he's emulating Judy's cut and paste/spam routine.

    Absolutely. The gov't has no business telling private citizens who to do business with. Even if their motives were pure, they would still have no business butting in. But that brings up an important point. Their motives are not pure.

    We just saw how pure the motives of the civil rights crew are in the cases decided by the Colorado civil rights commission.

    And then there's the ubiquitous presence of the fubu clothing line in the hood. It stands for for us, by us. Imagine eric holder's justice dept if a white clothing company named their brand something to that effect.

    And then there's the famous case of the black panther party standing in front of voting booths and telling the crackers that they're in charge. And the doj decided not to prosecute.
    According to a white man in the doj during this time period, people within the justice dept argued that civil rights laws are not made for white people to use against colored people.

    There you have it. All these laws are nothing more than an attempt to get the law to bludgeon the political right. They have no intent whatsoever of ever enforcing these laws against the left. They named these laws the same way they name most laws. With an intent to deceive.

    And as long as we'll take it, they'll keep dishing it out.

  7. Former GOP Governor May Run For President As A Democrat


    Former Rhode Island Gov. Lincoln Chafee on Thursday announced he is considering running for the 2016 Democratic presidential nomination.

    The 62-year-old, who served as a Republican senator before winning the governor's office as an independent, said he is alarmed about global turmoil in Africa and the Middle East.

    "Americans want safety, stability and sustainability. We will need fresh ideas and the most skillful diplomacy in dealing with this ever-changing world," he said in an introductory video posted to his website, Chafee2016.com. "Throughout my career, as mayor, governor, and U.S. senator, I exercised good judgment on a wide range of high-pressure decisions, decisions that require level-headedness and careful foresight."

    In the Senate, Chafee was the only Republican to vote against the authorization for the use of military force in Iraq, a distinction he does not share with presumptive Democratic frontrunner Hillary Clinton, who voted for the war. Other presumptive challengers in the Democratic primary include former Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley, U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), and former U.S. Sen. Jim Webb (Va.).

    "During the next weeks and months, I look forward to sharing my thoughts about the future of our great country," Chafee said.

    GOP Candidates Confounded by Questions from Press

    The GOP have gotten used to a FOX softball press that offers them a national stage to say whatever they want with no push-back. If the little resistance to their BS we've seen in the last few weeks is any indication of what's to come, it should make for an entertaining campaign season.

  10. I actually wasted the time to read that silly article. It's the usual politi-fact nonsense. Ted Cruz made a joke about the IRS and the grim-faced libs took it literally and then pronounced that he had told a big fib. He said obama care killed jobs. Their response was that jobs were growing. Finally you might add. Left unasked is what would jobs be doing without obamacare. They seem immune to any simple logic.

    Then the article lashes out at Rand Paul for daring not to swallow the gotcha bait that moron Savana Guthrie threw at him.

    It goes on.

    This is not being "confounded" by the media. It is demanding a somewhat even playing field. When did Guthrie go after Hillary Clinton? What about her 20 year trail of lies, corruption, obstruction and deceit?

    If anyone has been coddled by the press and is not used to hard questions, it is she and obama.
