Collins' speech re: Kavanaugh nomination
She gave a reasoned, sane, researched and factually backed speech for which she deserves the highest compliments! It was good to know that the spirit is still alive in the Senate.
BTW, anyone has the transcripts?
BTW, anyone has the transcripts?
Hooray for her!
Shortly thereafter I also heard she's getting death threats and I've seen wacko demonstrators waving insulting signs with her name on it.
One sign said, "F*** Susan Collins." What a classy bunch.
May the soon to come voting sharply reflect that.

Politicians on the left are unable to part with their real or perceived power. You don't see that on the right.
When their time is over, you think thank God I won't have to see/hear him/her again.
No such luck. Obama is still around. The Clintons are around. And the MSM gladly reminds us by posting their photos all over the place.
It never ends.
Yes, it appears everyone is aware she is not getting it. The left is not getting it.
But they are hell-bent letting us know they are not getting it daily. We are paying the price.
The MSM reports regularly what H Clinton said. Yesterday she was all over the news, even FOX was showing her talking about uncivility. Yes, she is a right person to endeavor that, chastising the country. That is what she wants. When will FOX learn that we don't want to see/hear her. I had to switch channels to avoid being exposed to her drivel. I could care less what she says/does.
But the fact remains the right is reluctant to sink to the left's tactics b/c everyone knows it means equating themselves with the left. In all likelihood, the left would sink to new lows after that, and there will be no stopping.
Nonetheless, I was pleased to see Graham, Grassly and McConnell lash out at them at the Kavanaugh hearing. Looked like the GOP is beginning to fight and develop a backbone, rather than caving in
Hosts on this side. Parasites on that side.
Take Texas for example. A deeply conservative State in and out.
However, many Californians targeted Texas for some time. After all even the left can see what taxes and State government can do, and California under Brown has become dangerously similar to a communist state.
So what Happens? They move to Texas and take their destructive thinking with them. They can't shed that, it is worse than second skin.
The result is an increasingly blue Texas.
Is it possible that a spark would inflame the nation?
When you watch the unhinged left scream and blast like after the Kavanaugh nomination, not much more is needed for physical violence.
The only reason it is not progressing that far is the common sense on the right.
-Leftist tactics
Maybe this means if deplorable keep winning, the liberals will just launch into civil war, v2. In the streets with Hillary as commander in chief and general Maxine propping her up

Now more than ever it is time we all step up and support the republicans at the ballots. Democrats have been and should continue to remain on the defensive through the next few election cycles and be relegated into obscurity. The more pissed they get the more destructive they become to themselves. How fitting is Susan Collins' quote and the left should be listening, “We must always remember that when passions are most inflamed that fairness is most in jeopardy.”
Sarah Palin. Man, would I love to see that happen.

“We must always remember that when passions are most inflamed that fairness is most in jeopardy.”
-Susan Collins
...And by inciting that moment of raging emotions, leftists will strike their hardest to take what they want, not letting their prime opportunity to gain something unfairly go to waste.
I did not expect her to come around but it appears she has had enough, not surprisingly. The extent the left was prepared to go in destructing Kavanaugh surpassed imagination.
Having said that, this is by no means over. With Booker and Harris on the left, the terror will increase to ISIS levels.
We also must recognize an important turning point: the GOP learned to fight, thanks to president Trump. This was the first time in a long period that the GOP did not cave in when challenged. We have gotten used to them being spineless. But as the Kavanaugh saga unfolded, we saw Senator Grassley confront blackmail, Senator Graham lash out at the left, then Senator Collins coming to her senses.
That is a very good sign and the reason the left is out of its mind in panic.
Continue the good fight, GOP!
-The Egopriest (||B^\/)
Fact remains that for the left it is not "passion for reason".
For them it is unbridled terror and lawlessness to achieve their communist agenda for which Hussein Obama worked for 8 long years.
Greatness reveals itself when you least expect it.
