That's not going to help Obama's poll numbers either...

Latest reports show that there won't be any word from the St Louis County Grand Jury until next weekend at the earliest..

Which is a good thing for me..

I haven't received my badge'd I AM DARREN WILSON t-shirt yet....

The more I think about it, the more I believe that this will be the end of TrainWreckCare...

There was absolutely no disagreement at the Federal Court level over the subsidies...

So, logically, if the SCOTUS were to side with the Government, they wouldn't have heard the case..

The simple fact that the SCOTUS will rule would seem to indicate that they intend to side with the Plaintiffs...

Is there a flaw in my logic??

The legal challenge to the subsidies is "the most serious existential threat" facing the Affordable Care Act, added Pollack.

Rut roh, Raggey...

Looks like this may be the final nail in the coffin of TrainWreckCare...

Since I am apparently on a roll now.. That's my prediction.. :D

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The U.S. military has drawn up plans to significantly increase the number of American forces in Iraq, which now total around 1,400, as Washington seeks to bolster Iraqi forces battling the Islamic State, U.S. officials told Reuters on Friday.

Again, I called it...

What do you think Iraq War III will do to Obama's poll numbers???

Michale

I get it.. I understand.. If the roles were reversed, I would likely do the same thing...

If ya'all want to do that, I will quit calling ya'all on it..

I won't begrudge ya'all the illusion that this Nuclear Shellacking is actually not a bad thing for Democrats..

Just as long as we are clear up front that it IS just spin and illusionary... :D

Michale

The fact that you have to go back over half a century should indicate to you the validity of that argument.. :D

This, and the latest Obama approval uptick, plus the fact that only 36 senate races were held, in 34 states, suggest it's more legit to call the outcome a Red/Purple state referendum. I know, this gets in the way of a catchy meme....but those are the facts

If you ONLY look at the Senate races, you would be correct..

But there were so many many more races where Republicans won in the most bluest of blue areas... Not to mention the House races, Goober races and state legislature races and local representative races...

In each and every aspect of this election, the Democrats were decimated..

Like we are discussing in the previous commentary, you CAN find a shiney nugget here and a shiney nugget there.. I won't begrudge you that..

But you can't point to those very VERY few shiney nuggets and claim those have any kind of relevance to the totality of the entire election..

Democrats got their asses handed to them.. No two ways about it... They got shellacked. Nuclear Shellacked...

As to why???? Obama said it best...

"Make no mistake. I may not be on the ballot this election but my policies, each and every one of them, ARE on the ballot"

You want to argue with The Messiah, go ahead... :D

What's our POTUS going to do about it??

I see a day coming, likely very soon, when Obama will look wistfully at the 40% approval rating and wish for those days again...

Amnesty for criminals is a loser across the board...

The ONLY group that is for it are the criminals themselves...

We just came off a PERFECT example of what happens when politicians ignore the will of the people...

By all means.. Push Amnesty for criminals.. Guarantee a GOP government for the next 50 years....

Michale

The American people are overwhelmingly against Amnesty for criminals.. This was one of the clear points of the MidTerms.

The danger for the GOP is to overreact...

The reasons for Obama's embrace of criminals is two-fold..

1st and foremost, he is trying to mint fresh new Democrat voters for the 2016 elections.. It's funny that this was widely dismissed here in Weigantia when this discussion got started but now no one even tries to deny it anymore.. So I guess that's progress... :D

The 2nd reason that Obama is embracing criminals can be summed up in one word.... Impeachment-Bait... Obama is trying to goad the GOP into over-reacting.. That would explain the arrogant (even for Obama) tone in his mid-term response presser...

I am of two thoughts over this.. On the one hand, I honestly believe that the American People will support the impeachment of Obama over this.. Especially the people who have lost loved ones to immigrant criminals, people whose friends and family have been raped, murdered and killed by immigrant criminals. Americans that Obama and the Demcorats completely ignore... Further, the American people resoundingly and overwhelmingly told Obama in the MidTerms to STOP!! We don't LIKE what you are doing and we want you to stop!!! If Obama ignores the American people (AGAIN) then I think you will find that they will, en-masse, support the impeachment of Obama...

On the OTHER hand, there is a chance that Obama impeachment will be just like Clinton's impeachment. A small chance, but a chance nonetheless ... In this, the best plan of action for Republican would be to simply let Obama slit his own throat and the throat of the Demcorat Party and reap the rewards in 2016... When an opponent is intent on destroying themselves and their Party, the best possible action is to just to get out of their way and let them do it, while minimizing collateral damage...

So, I am not sure the best way to proceed..

It's a foregone conclusion that Amnesty for 10 million criminals will be a disaster for this country.. You can't drop 10 million new workers into the job pool that is ALREADY way over-saturated with workers and expect good things to happen..

It's simply not possible..

The ONLY silver lining to Obama's embrace of immigrant criminals is that my prediction of Obama approval dropping below 40% will finally come true...

A Pyrrhic Victory, to be sure....

Michale

I guess it's just me in a good mood, but I honestly don't mind when Obama has "good" months like this.. :D

Michale

hehehehehehe Now THAT was funny!!! :D

But humor aside, I think ya'all better get used to it..

MARTHA COAKLEY. THE FACE OF THE *NEW* DEMOCRAT PARTY

Michale

I just hope we don't nominate Martha Coakley. She's apparently unbeatable in Democratic primaries.
