We are the drain the swamp people

• SAD!
• Iowa Democrat Caucuses results still pending
• Software by the people that brought you Obamacare
• We bet Bernie did not win even if he did
• Poor Democrats, cheating is OK with them, they just have not found a way to make it look like they are not cheating (thanks to DK for that line)
• It is reported that Hillary’s guy Robby Mook’s firm came up with the caucus reporting phone “ap”
• Could it be the results were not as desired so the proper results needed to be built in
• Why don’t they toss a coin or something
• Party apparat still relying on building in confusion, make the responsibility trail convoluted,  and then determining the results

The bad thing is that looking at the pictures from the Democrat Caucuses, many of them look normal.  To be sure, they have heads full of toys, irresponsible ideas, but many look normal. That they crave big government, many aggressively so, makes their chosen party dangerous. We will have a fight on our hand for every office. To say the least, he educational system has not served our Republic well. Nay, it is in the process of trying to collapse it.

Reading about the Democrat caucuses at the QC Times:

First in the nation comes in late

The kerfuffle could all but eliminate the impact of the results, as Iowa Democrats gathered to choose a nominee to face Trump.

A little about our experience at our Republican caucus in a later post.

. . . ~ For those who think dung~

In recent years watching the Super Bowl for the commercials has become voyeurism rather than a celebration of Americana. Hard to imagine that at one time what was a cultural event, the commercials, is now about watching a train wreck.  As reader TN commented:

-“Liberated” women shaking their ass on stripper poles.

-Threatening male, all in WHITE, wearing an inverted crucifix, singing in Spanish.

-Children in cages.

-“Born in the USA” with US flag transitioning to PR flag, both flags in Pepsi colors, moving immediately to Pepsi commercial.

-male dancers in bondage outfits doing calisthenics to bad music.

They left out a border wall and voter registration booths

(no image of )…  caravans full of heavily pregnant women, military age males, behind flags of Latin American countries, allegedly walking 2000 miles but not needing new footwear, with charged smart phones, complaining about ethnic food served on arrival.

Who recruited/organized these people?

Who organized logistic support enroute?

Why are organizers not in GTMO?

This decision is so hard. We are like Democrats in our indecision on who they should support. We change hour to hour.

This morning we say: Lets have this fight!  All the Democrat candidates are on a glide-path to radical socialism. They are all Tweedle-Dummers but let’s give the most admitted redist of the red their day. In service to them, we point out that Joe, however mending his ways and endorsing all things radical today, “has some history.” He was associated with Obama and Hillary and they were not radical enough for the new party. As pointed out in some of the Bernie Bro sites, go with the winner!!

To be sure, Bernie and Warren support undoing the Republic, but Joe is a latecomer to that and we should go with the ones who mince no words. Bernie and/ or Lizbeth (MeMaw’s papoose) for the Democrat nomination!

Heard (hurd) on the streets from the same folks:*

~~The ploy to give Bloomberg a shot at the nomination must be resisted. We must take it to the streets.  Sure Bloomberg has a billion or two in F*ck You money he can throw at Trump.  They think Trump is going to win anyway, so why not reorient the coffers. But this is our chance.  Our time has come . “We” can’t survive 4 or 12 more years of Trumpism.

Here are some recommendations consistent with reinforcing existing planks and filling in gaps  in current county, district and state Republican platforms. Redundancy is not an issue at this stage and the process will consolidate planks as appropriate. Bring these to your caucus Monday February 3rd.  Visit  https://scottcountyrepublicans.org/ to find your location. Be there before 7:00 PM.

More could be added and we encourage items be sent to our comment section which we will try to have vetted and posted by 10:00 AM.  Bring them to your caucus for vetting whether or not we are able to post any more on a timely basis here.

Votes on each resolution can be done in short order calling for a vote individually with the results recorded on each.  Alternatively because there is no subject matter limitation at the caucus level a group of resolutions might be passed as “resolution 1 addenda to platform”. Numbers are provided to simplify referencing. Attendees with smart phones can be referred to this site in place of sharing or printing copies but paper resolution(s) must be submitted to the county.

In no particular order: (copy and bring with you)

1. Resolved: Scott County Republican Party opposes any bi-state taxing authority

1.1 We condemn the impeachment of President Trump as a totally partisan coup attempt. As related by Kimberley A. Strassel writing at the Wall Street Journal:

“Democrats broke every standard of due process, transparency and fairness in their House investigation, making a mockery of their constitutional duty.”

“They hid the identity of the original accuser, denying Republicans and the country the ability to judge his motives. They held secret depositions, barring more than three-quarters of House members, as well as the press and the American public. They called 18 witnesses, but blocked the president from calling any in his defense. The White House legal team was excluded from the proceedings—prohibited from cross-examining witnesses, denied the ability to introduce any evidence that spoke to the central question of the president’s focus on Ukrainian corruption.”

2.  We call on the Senate of the Unites States to speedily acquit President Trump

3.  We oppose wind and solar subsidies and mandates. These are mature industries and should stand or fall based on market based prices for energy.

4.  Resolved, We insist that the Republican Party and its candidates stand for honesty and integrity in all political advertising. We expect political campaigns to be conducted in a positive and truthful manner.

5.  Resolved, We call on our courts to interpret and apply the First Amendment as the Framers intended. The phrase, “the separation of church and state” as it is commonly used, contradicts the original intent and practice of the Framers of the Constitution. The First Amendment prohibits the establishment of a “state religion” and permits the exercise of religious freedom. Neither the courts nor government agencies should misuse or misunderstand the First Amendment so as to create a “so-called wall of separation” to the voluntary expression of religious belief.

6.  Resolved, We affirm that the unborn child has a fundamental individual right to life which cannot be infringed. We support a human life amendment to the Iowa and U.S. Constitution and endorse legislation to make clear that the Fourteenth Amendment’s protections apply to unborn children. We oppose using public revenues to promote or perform abortion or fund organizations which perform or advocate it and will not fund or subsidize health care which includes abortion coverage.

7.  We oppose the non-consensual withholding or withdrawal of care or treatment, including food and water, from people with disabilities, including newborns, as well as the elderly and infirm, just as we oppose active and passive euthanasia and assisted suicide.

8.  Resolved, We support the use of adult stem cells to advance modern medical research. We oppose somatic cell nuclear transfer (human cloning), embryonic stem cell research and any research that involves the destruction of unborn human life, and the commercial use or sale of fetal parts from induced abortion.

9.  We support the appointment of judges who respect traditional family values and the sanctity of innocent human life. We call for the appointment of judges who are committed to the original intent of the framers. We oppose judge made law.

10.  Resolved:  Republican Party at the county, district, state and national levels should hold our politicians to our platform.

12.  The metadata collection of  American citizens activities is an unreasonable search and seizure and should be ended as a violation of the Fourth Amendment to the Constitution.

13.  Resolved, Common Core State Standards have less to do with raising standards than lowering standards. They are an inappropriate overreach to standardize and control the education of our children so they will conform to a preconceived ‘normal…’ Common Core Standards are bad for our children and are a gross overreach into the lives of Americans by the federal government.

14.  We oppose Common Core State Standards (CCSS), because we do not believe in a one size fits all approach to education and support providing broad education choices to parents and children at the State and local level.”

15.  Resolved, Iowa’s community colleges are crucial to both cultural and technological advancement in the state. We support that an overall budget neutral parity (no added taxes) for Iowa’s  community colleges  be established.

16.  Resolved,  The voting records and known positions of nominated candidates that are substantially opposed to core principles and positions of this platform shall be used by Republican leadership in decisions about the use of Party resources, and interpreted as negative factors.

17.  Resolved, That candidates who receive Republican Party money be required to return to the Republican Party any financial help if the candidate bows out of the race or endorses a Democrat.

18.  We support the grass roots nature and development of our county, district and state platforms and believe they should be adhered to and added to as appropriate and not diminished to platitudes.

19.  Congress should make mechanisms for limiting the vote to citizens of the United States more uniformly secure and enforceable. Electoral college votes and seating of federal delegations from jurisdictions not in compliance with federal law or that are demonstratively lax in insuring the integrity of the vote under current law, those federal elections results should not be recognized whatever the venue.

20.  Resolved, we support citizenship status added to every census questionnaire

Spy school: Chinese military officer busted for posing as Boston University student  at the Washington Times, by Bill Gertz:

“A female Chinese military officer was charged with spying while posing as a student at Boston University, but was able to flee the country after FBI agents interviewed her about her links to the People’s Liberation Army (PLA). PLA Lt. Ye Yanqing was indicted in a separate criminal case involving Dr. Charles Lieber, chairman of Harvard’s chemistry department, who was arrested on Tuesday and charged with lying about receiving tens of thousands of dollars from the Wuhan University of Technology and lying to the Pentagon about the foreign money.(Snip) Lt. Ye was tasked by the PLA to gather intelligence on U.S. military websites…”

Question 1: How can one tell which students are communist spies, just sympathizers, or simple stupid buffoons like Alexandria Ocasio Cortez, a graduate of that ‘elite’ university?

Question 2: How can one tell which teachers are communist provocateurs like leftist icon Howard Zinn a professor there who wrote his seminal work, protected there, indoctrinated many students and sent them forth to teach throughout the country?

Question 3: Why would a communist agent not find BU ~~ comfortable?

• Now being dopey is the trademark of a political party
• Whole lotta LGBTQ pandering’ goin’ on                                                 dlh
  

From a column by Lloyd Marcus at American Thinker:

California’s nightmare is spreading nationally

Even Democrat presidential candidates say, “Screw you mainstream America, we’re pandering to transgenders.”

Joe Biden tweeted, “transfobia is the paramount civil rights issue of the current era.” As a proud American who happens to be black, it offends the heck out of me that a behavior is absurdly deemed the same as the racial discrimination fought by my late dad and his fellow black civil rights pioneers.

If elected, Elizabeth Warren pledges to reverse Trump’s ban on transgenders in the military. Warren also vows that transgenders with be well-represented in her administration.

Bernie Sanders tweeted, “Transgender rights are human rights. We are going to fight to end all forms of discrimination and violence against our trans family.” Sanders hung a transgender pride flag outside his office. Leading in the Democrat presidential polls, Sanders promises protections for illegals and transgenders, insuring that they be addressed by their preferred pronouns.

Democrat presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg, who really gets-off by kissing his male sex partner on national TV, promises nearly two dozen new initiatives to further the LGBTQ agenda. Keep in mind that only 3% of the population identify as LGBTQ.

Transgenders are destroying women sports, winning every competition hands-down. Hillary had to back peddle from her statement that cisgender (real women) have a right to be concerned. Hillary’s cowardly retraction of her commonsense statement tells us she will surrender to the transgender agenda if elected president.

Democrat presidential candidate Mike Bloomberg epitomizes my statement that Democrats crave power to control every aspect of our lives because they are our intellectual and moral superiors. In typical Democrat, we’re-smarted-than-everyday-Americans fashion, NY mayor Bloomberg tried to ban large sugary beverages.

Bloomberg promises to federally fund transgender sex-change surgery. Democrats have forced us to sponsor the murder of 60 million babies against the moral convictions of a majority of Americans. Bloomberg will force us to fund transgender ideology which is documented to be a mental illness and child abuse.

AP report via NY Post:

Transgender boy wins girls’ state wrestling title for second time 

Give back all those medals to the Russian women athletes

CYPRESS, Texas — For the second year in a row, a transgender wrestler has won the Texas girls’ Class 6A 110-pound division.

Video posted online showed a mix of cheers and boos from the crowd following Beggs’ win.

Beggs is in the process of transitioning from female to male and taking a low dose of testosterone.

It was his steroid therapy treatments while wrestling girls that stirred a fierce debate about competitive fairness and transgender rights last season. It’s been a lot quieter since last year, when his march to a state championship was dogged by a last-minute lawsuit that tried to stop him.

Beggs had asked to wrestle in the boys’ division, but the rules for Texas public high schools require athletes to compete under the gender on their birth certificate.

Beggs entered the state tournament with a 32-0 record, beating three female wrestlers on his way to the championship.

In keeping with our betters at the Des Moines Register who have picked Elizabeth Warren to be the Democrat nominee, we too have now seen the wisdom they propose.  However with deference to our other betters at the QC Times and their pick of Amy Klobashar for the Democrat nomination, we  place a few commemorative memes for her as well.

First Dear Amy then Liz

I m sooo sorry so few memes about me exist, I am just as stupid as the others, but darn it I’m boring

• Paying it forward – a “child” of affirmative action herself (and nothing else)
  
• The Des Moines Register endorsed her for President as their favorite Indian (as did Harvard Law)
  
• Thunberg for Energy Secretary?
  
• We have changed our pick, for Caucus Bowl Monday anyway, 
• Soon to be the lez favorite everywhere – LIZ WARREN!!

Clarice Feldmann has another insightful, fun … column  this morning.

The Democrats May Have Lost…but They’re Still Smarter than You

In it she artfully takes the Democrats apart, particularly the front-running  Dem candidates as well as the failed “House Impeachment Managers”. She’s very hard on Crazy Bernie and Sleepy Joe.

Clarice, however, overlooks our favorite Democrat candidate for the nomination (we change day to day with passing fancy. We hope that Iowa Dem voters will be kinder. Who could possibly be more fun than Liz (“Ah think ah’ll have me a beer“) Warren?

On this we are on the same page, so to speak, as the Des Moines Register. And, what fun President Trump would have campaigning with “Princess Wahoo” as his opponent!  DLH

————————

GOP Needs for Warren to be the Dem Nominee

If the 2020 presidential campaign is to be any fun at all, “Native American Princess Wahoo” (El Jefe, Liz Warren) has got to be the Democrat nominee.

How could the Democratic Party voters reject a candidate who is determined to seek the best possible advice on who should fill key positions in her Cabinet?

Warren Says Her Education Secretary Must Meet Trans Child’s Approval

The Daily Caller recounts Elizabeth Warren’s commitment to her supporters that, if elected U S president, she will tap the expertise of the finest minds she knows to help her in selecting her Cabinet. The online source, “Pink”, reports approvingly, on the story as well. See below.   DLH
