An over-the-top speculation?

[laruemtt]

i keep wondering how could someone like byrd and really any dem go along with voting for alito. we have all speculated on what the BFEE might have on him and others. well, what if the the evil ones are threatening another 9/11 if they don't go along and go along convincingly? since our people genuinely love the country, they'll forego a win rather than see us get hit again. kind of like solomon with the two women claiming to be a baby's mother. when he threatened to cut the baby in half and give half to each woman, the real mother relinquished her claim to the baby to save its life. have i completely lost my mind here scrambling for explanations for the inaction of some of our dems????

2. I don't know.

Bush's trip to Kansas was very strange. Rove was obviously trying to portray Bush "In touch". But
Bush was in front of 19 year olds so who needs pre submitted questions.

10. Junior actually went to Kansas so he could look for THESE

The Ruby Red Slippers...Junior thought that Jeff Gannon would think he'd look uber sexy in them.

We're not in Kansas anymore Toto.




On Edit: Dammit spelling error.

3. Don't know.

Being Dems in red states might have something to do with it...I could see Johnson being especially sensitive to that. But otherwise, I don't know.

4. if we get hit again, chimpy's career is over

he will have no support. His base thinks he's diligently protecting them at all costs. He would be washed up.

11. Oh, hell no! He'll just blame it on the Dem's giving aid to the enemy...

and his sheeple will follow him. The fear tactic is STILL working. Read this post if you don't believe me. This is the EXACT reason that our preznit can get away with ten 911's and his kool-aid crowd will STILL worship at his feet!

5. After watching the US go back in time....literally......

I would not put anything off the books.....power corrupts absolutely...and with the new United Police States anything can and will happen....untill "We the People" come out in force..your thoughts may become reality....

6. Not over the top at all unfortunately. I wouldn't put it past them. n/t

7. that presupposes....

....that they care and really represent us....may I submit that the multi-millionaire Democratic Leader has more in common with the multi-millionaire Republican Leader than they do with us....

8. There's no Conspiracy Theory as to why we won't filibuster

We won't filibuster Alito, because we need to keep our arsenal for if Justice Stevens or Justice Ginsburg cause a vacancy or vacancies.
