There has been that controlling dominance in both parties. The Progressive, I know best intellectual thinking.
The democrats pulled the mask off and don't try to hide it. The end justifies the means to them. That is why the blind eye gets turned so often, when there is an attack on anyone or any person's personal liberty.
The Republicans try to hide it. SOMETIMES NOT!
Government can solve everything...... There is nothing Conservative about that.

Every law, ever place on mankind, is a restriction of an individuals liberty... Freedom.
The laws of nature will always prevail, no matter how much social engineering and government persuasion, by punishment and penalty tries.

Sure, theft, robbery, assault, and murder are the laws of mankind. Break those laws and expect a lynching.


You should be someones campaign spokesman!
That hit the spot.

Mace is the first woman to graduate from The Citadel, a military college in the Palmetto State. She is also a wife, mother and small business owner from Goose Creek, S.C. According to her campaign website, she is the proud daughter of retired Army Brigadier Gen. Emory Mace.


This may look hard to beat.
He will get primaried.

Who knew, until they started spending like a drunk sailor and making government solve everything, then open the flood gates to illegal labor... Who knew. It was not in the campaign

Oh, I know who she is and I respect her for who and what she is. If it is just between the two of them, he might go by the waste side, but if more enter the race the votes could very well get split. It is just not easy to upseat a sitting senator, especially in the primaries.

Keep in mind it would be a runoff if no one gets 50%, so if more enter the race the more likely it is to go into a runoff. With that being said despite the screaming and yelling about Graham from the extreme right, this is a guy who ha a lifetime rating from the ACU of an 89. Graham isn't a Collins or Snowe, its a joke to think of him that way as some on here do. He is quite far to the right himself.
