Outstanding!!!
But yes, we'll get Gorsuch on the bench.
Get ready for the filibuster on legislation to go away before too long as well.
In recent years, compromise has only meant conservatives caving in to liberal demands. When the rule was not convenient for the left, they abolished most of it. The only chance of the libtards learning a lesson is for the Republicans to use the Dimocrat's own tactics to jam our agenda down their throats for a change. Give them a taste of their own medicine.
When they had the majority in the House, Senate, and White House, they lorded it over us. Now it's our turn and I say, "Make hay while the sun shines." Giving them any consideration has done nothing but bite us in the butt. Now it's their turn in the bowl.

The retaking of America begins, let's hope and pray the trend continues. Wouldn't hurt my feelings if a few more SCOTUS justices retire in the next three years.

The Dimocrats are going to put the screws to us either way. History proves that over and over again. It's time to wake up and hit hard while we have a chance. There is no downside. When the Dims are in power, they'll do as they darn well please no matter what we do now.TexasJohnBoy wrote:*Nod.

I'll also add the note that I am very happy that Gorsuch has been seated, I just hope the maneuvers don't bite us too hard as it has for the Dems. I'm so incredibly happy that Hilldebeast didn't get to pick this seat.

Wow in the New York Times no less. Trump restores our credibility in the world.
Who would have ever thought.
http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/world-news ... r-10221557The US has dropped the 'largest ever non-nuclear bomb' targeting ISIS tunnels in Afghanistan.
The GBU-43/B Massive Ordnance Air Blast Bomb — nicknamed the "Mother of All Bombs" (MOAB) — was dropped in at 7pm. local time today (4pm UK time).
The Pentagon confirmed the strike was carried out using a 21,000lb weapon
The target was ISIS tunnels and extremists in the Achin district of Nangarhar province.
It is believed to be the first time the bomb has been used in the battlefield.
http://www.foxnews.com/world/2017/04/13 ... illed.htmlThe U.S. military dropped the largest non-nuclear bomb in eastern Afghanistan on Thursday just days after a Green Beret was killed fighting ISIS there, a U.S. defense official confirmed to Fox News.
The GBU-43B, a 21,000-pound conventional bomb, was dropped in Nangarhar Province.
Yes, I have noticed that too. For example, Joe Scarborough ("Morning Joe") has shifted lately from being critical on Trump's tweets to criticizing Steve Bannon and predicting his removal.
