Here's hoping Planter wins.. If I was there.. that is who I would vote for.
Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet deprecate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground, they want rain without thunder and lightning, they want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters.

The usual dipsh!t Republicans voted with the rats.
I would remind you that extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice. And let me remind you also that moderation in the pursuit of justice is no virtue.

Come now! You can't mean that. After all, a 50% republican is better than a 100% Commie any day.

That is the thinking which has gotten us where we are today.

Put another way, without obama.. we would not have Trump.  Would we be better off, on the whole,  if romney had won?

Excerpt:

Four Republicans — Murkowski, McConnell, Tillis, and Collins — joined Democrats to kill the Graham Amendment during the vote-a-rama. The measure needed 60 votes and fell short, showing that even if Republicans nuked the filibuster, they still wouldn’t have the votes to get it done the traditional way.

But Senator Mike Lee isn’t giving up. He’s taking a smarter approach.

Lee announced he’s offering the House-passed version of the SAVE America Act as an amendment on the Senate floor during tonight’s vote-a-rama.


Dear senators… Think of it this way…it really should be called the “Save My Job Act”. You can take it to the bank that if you vote against the SAVE America Act we WILL vote you out.

IMHO, YES! Vastly better off overall. And, for the record, I cannot stand Mitt Romney but do not believe him to be a Communist.

Live in  harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all.

Romans 12:16-18
