    The squeak you hear, Exo, isn't Dangermouse, it's a mechanical squeak. It's the sound of many wheels rolling massive political artillery in place. This artillery of consequential and issue shifting caliber. It's not a mob spitting on Senators sparkler, it's not the crying on a talk board bottle rocket...it's a Supreme Court Justice that will be there until almost 2050 howitzer.

    I would suggest you build a few political bunkers, Exo. Pick and axe up some fortifications in front of Fort Roe v Wade, the siege soon begins.

    Best build a back door too so you can try to haul Planned Parenthood out the back when the entire edifice starts to come down around you.

    Truth <> Lefties. Do not mix.
    When Donald Trump said to protest “peacefully”, he meant violence.

    When he told protesters to “go home”, he meant stay for an insurrection.

    And when he told Brad Raffensperger to implement “whatever the correct legal remedy is”, he meant fraud.

    War is peace.

    Freedom is slavery.

    Ignorance is strength.

    Anti-Susan Collins Campaign Raises $2 Million, Crashes During Kavanaugh Speech

    https://www.rollingstone.com/politic...anaugh-733090/

    https://www.cnn.com/2018/10/05/polit...020/index.html

    https://www.google.com/search?hl=en&...13.QlisZ1_CAvk


    Many are already throwing their hats in the ring to take the Maine senator’s job in 2020


    Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME) extinguished any lingering hopes that she might cast the deciding vote against Brett Kavanaugh’s nomination to the Supreme Court on Friday afternoon. As she delivered her lengthy speech on the Senate floor, a crowd-funding site created to fund a Democratic challenge to Collins in 2020 crashed.


    “This entire process was up to Collins,” says Amy Halsted, co-director of Maine People’s Alliance, which launched the campaign.

    “And today she did the wrong thing.”


    The Crowdpac campaign, which the progressive grassroots organization started with the express purpose of swaying Collins’ vote on the Kavanaugh nomination, had raised more than $2 million before Collins’ speech.

    Halsted was listening to Collins on the radio while picking her children up from school.


    She hadn’t heard, when contacted by Rolling Stone, that the site had crashed under the weight of requests, but she says, “it doesn’t surprise me that the website is crashing because people are mad.”


    “This vote is a complete betrayal of Maine voters, of the women who have called her offices, and written letters and organized phone banks and attended rallies and told their very deeply painful stories to her and her staff.


    I think it’s the end of whatever legacy she has worked so hard to achieve as a moderate,” Halsted ssays.


    “I don’t think Mainers will forget this vote.”

    Collins won reelection in Maine with 67 percent of the vote in 2014, but her home state support has dropped in recent months.


    A Suffolk University poll in early August found that less than 50 percent of respondents had a favorable opinion of the Republican senator, and a Public Policy Polling survey conducted just this week found that more than half of Maine voters thought Kavanaugh’s nomination should be rejected, and 49 percent said they would be less likely to support Collins if she voted to confirm.

    Voters, Halsted said, “are ready to support a senator from Maine who is going to stand up for Mainers and do what’s right for the country, regardless of political party — and I think people realize Susan Collins is not that senator.”







    Actively almost buying influence during the voting process with an open fund may somehow be legal but it is also a new low in American politics. And that is not easy to accomplish these days! Don't worry however, it will get even lower before long!

    Did you catch the part where Collins said Kavanaugh will be a *wonderful centrist* ?

    Susan Collins says Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh won’t end abortion rights in the US

    https://qz.com/1415657/susan-collins...n-roe-vs-wade/

    “To my knowledge, Judge Kavanaugh is the first Supreme Court nominee to express the view that precedent is not only a practice and a tradition, but rooted in Article 3 of our constitution itself,” she told the Senate.
