Do you mean the quality candidates like:
Marjorie Taylor Green of Jewish Space Lazar fame?
Lauren Boebert who tweeted on Jan 5 that the Capitol attacks were, "the new 1776"? Who tweeted info on the actions of Capitol Police during the attack?
Mitch McConnell- Who used he filibuster to his advantage countless times but now wants to get rid of it because it doesn't help his agenda?

No, these candidates do not appeal top the majority of Americans. They are swine and have been exposed as such. McConnell will get reelected because that is what Kentucky does.
Well, it's the Donks who are trying to nuke the filibuster, but blast off.

My bad on that one. The filibuster should stay no matter what party is in control.

Wasn’t deregulation that caused the TX blackouts, Bobby. Was years of favoring the construction of heavily subsidized renewable energy sources over more reliable electricity generation.
It was the massive failure of the natural gas plants that were the leading cause of the blackouts.

"Contrary to what some state politicians have said, the blackouts weren’t primarily the fault of frozen wind turbines. It was largely a problem with natural gas, which is the state’s primary energy source. "

"Natural gas wells and pipelines in Texas, the country’s biggest energy-producing state, do not undergo the winterization of those farther north - resulting in many being knocked offline by the prolonged freezing weather (here).

The storm has knocked about a third of the state’s generating capacity offline. Contrary to comments made by Marjorie Taylor Greene and others, the power grid in Texas relies heavily on natural gas, responsible for nearly half the electricity generated (here)."

"While Texas leads the U.S. in the production of natural gas, that gas couldn't be used to provide electrical power and to heat homes in Texas because of the way natural gas is stored. It is stored in underground chambers, and to bring it to the surface, a pump is required. The cold temperatures knocked out the diesel engines that power these pumps. Also, natural gas pipelines used to transfer the gas froze."

Wrong on the IRS, Bobby. Those making over 500k have the highest chance of getting audited.

Nonsensical rightist drivel is ok? MTG needs to know, otherwise, she'll have nothing to talk about.

FYP. And I hate to agree with Trip but he has a point. The RNC is bankrupt. Instead of offering new ideas, the only tactic they have left is to get in the way. With an aging demographic, this isn't sustainable.
Couldn’t disagree more. GOP has some of the strongest candidates it’s had in years. It’s ideals appeal to a large swath of America.

I think Green should have her security clearance yanked for letting the cat out of the bag about the Jewish Space Lasers. :coffee:

The amount of energy that the left spends on twisting the truth, so that they can protect ‘merica from non existent threats, far exceeds those of the right by so much it’s scary.

It’s like the lead up of the 1930’s in Germany where the left twisted truth extremely and led up to an elected socialist with nationalist background.

That's on both sides of it. How much bullshit does the Right spew about Socialism and marxism if Obama were elected? Both sides do that bullshit.

Does that excuse the behavior?

Let's take it to another example - Trump spread a bunch of lies and bullshit about the election and his supporters attacked a branch of the government and police officers.

Both sides are culpable for fomenting discord that led to riots.




There's another one Jelly!

Not sure I buy that one completely. We have a good amount of pilots that like to fly by checklist instead of through airmanship.

Our military really feeds the airlines some great pilots.
Military pilots are officers,[Houndierror doesn't like officers, therefore flying is easy.
