#1 Mitch McConnell - Worthless traitor who needs to get replaced by an actual human being with a spine.


RNC, if you ready this, you get nothing from me moneywise cause you're not conservative Americans. You have become Demonrats and I see no difference between you two.

#2 Ditto, no more money to the RNC, support to conservative candidates only.

#5 Y'all don't know that the TEA party simply means "Taxed Enough Already".

#6 The only conscience the senator has is how much of his reelection fund he can convert to his personal use and the kind of paying gig he can get on K street when he does.

#7 The Tea Party opposes the wild out-of-control spending of establishment Washington and they all go ape $hit? The Tea Party tries to put the power and control back in the hands of Americans and the Donks and Rinos go ballistic. Gimme a break.

#8 JohnQC, you've hit the nail on the head. When the power to tax and spend is infringed, donks and rinos hurt the most!

#9 Before there was a Tea Party, there was the Porkbusters. People saw that every 'emergency' ended up with tremendous bloat in the funding to buy votes with. Under the guise of 'conscience' was outright fiduciary criminal looting of the public treasury.

#10 Oops! Another right-winger with a conscience. Hilarious

Once again JA your commentary is flat out absurd. Senator McConnell is an Establishment politician in a leadership position. This, by definition, means his decisions are driven primarily by strategy – not ideology. Therefore, he is neither a “right-winger” nor is he particularly conscientious. So follow along here junior. He’s not challenged by Tea Party policies. He’s threatened by their very existence. Hilarious.

#12 Who are you supposing to punch these people in the nose Mitch? You?

No? Are you advocating for others to go and punch people in the nose for you?

There is a nice corner at Boot Hill in Dodge City Mitch, you give me 15 minutes on that corner and I could point out everything which is right and wrong in America, then you can punch me in the nose - but I bet that bloody nose that I will convert you.

Why? Because four out of five things I say will be a positive story, with 10% wrong being government funded gangsterism and the other 10% being gangster influenced government.

#15 One has to forgive the Honorable Senator from Kentucky. He's been under a lot of strain recently, what with his poll numbers, viable opponents in both the primary and general election, and backlash from the filibuster nuke.

#16 ..well, when you make deals based upon your future needs to 'make friends and influence people' as a K street lobbyist rather than the people you're suppose to represent, it does get a little nasty back home. Can't blame yourself now can you? /rhet question

#17 Ole Mitch is trying to appear 'left' by invoking the 'Knockout Game' again his opponents.

Stupid fool actually believes he can out-give the democrats...

#18 Yup. That's the corner bman. There are a few who work, but a whole bunch who don't seem to. The corner I'm talking about includes the parking lot they have come to dominate, chasing off business from a Chinese/Thai restaurant, a Mexican shoe store, another Chinese restaurant, and a tourist gift shop. Double park, park in the throughway, loitering in front of entrences.

My point: its the paid to not work culture, and how it affects those who are working. The sales, property, payroll taxes those business pay go into encouraging people to not only not work, but how that hurts the very businesses which fund those programs. Paying people to hurt your business.

Its also a story about paying taxes for police, and them not making sure this plaza, and businesses on the main tourist route through town is functional.

I pull into the lot to get my Panang Gai and food for the fam, and a van stuffed with people double parks right in front of my store. They park, unload, go into some store with blacked out windows for five minutes, come back with no merchandise, and leave. Meanwhile, three guys are squatting on the sidewalk not talking to each other and have the 100 yard stare. I tip well because when they opened they were so busy they talked family into moving to Dodge to help out, then this pod of no workers showed up in their parking lot. I'd be pissed.

And its not the ethnicity, pretty frustrating watching toothless white meth heads get houses and dudes straight from the campos getting into brand new trucks with a bed full of groceries.

#19 Senator John McCain's office in Arizona got a call from me when he went after Senator Ted Cruz, (if you read this article you will see that Mitch also is going after Ted Cruz and the Tea Party) for him trying to prevent the federal debt ceiling from being raised. I told the sanctimonious sounding female voice on the other end of the line what John McCain needs to do, but doesn't have the guts to do.

Come to Dallas, Houston, San Antone, Abilene, and try spewing his spit at the people who sent the messenger to DC instead of trying to punch our messenger in the face. He obviously was too cowardly to follow through.

Sounds like I will be making the same call to Senator Mitchel's Office in Kentucky, 859-224-8286, come Monday morning, and then calling Senator Rand Paul's Kentucky office to offer my congratulations for standing up to the Senate Rhinos who are just as against Tea Party reps filibustering as Senator Reid and company.

#20 The problem is that the pub leadership is not much different than the dem leadership.

The dems are evil and greedy.
The pubs are greedy and stupid.

I just do not think that either the dems or the pubs are reformable. The tea party wants less government and taxes lowered. For this they got the most vicious ad hominem attacks. They hardly ever got an intense discussion of the merits of the ideas they put forward.

So these dinosaurs are unreformable. Let's put our energy into what can be positive and can be accomplished. I like the idea of independents working together on the merits of the issue. Vote trading works when there is plenty of money to throw around.

Well, there is no money to throw around any more.

#21 I think Mitch is speaking figuratively about the campaign contributions he will receive as opposed to any Tea Party candidate who dares to oppose him in the Republican primary. Unfortunately, he is probably right. But the RNC will never get another penny from me. This is also the same reason I didn't vote for Carly Fiorina when she ran for Senate against Barbara Boxer. Fiorina would have been the same kind of senator as McConnell.

#22 And the RNC wonders why contributions keep dropping.

#24 We got something. Definitely not a Constitutional Republic at the moment.

Not when the pseudo king can change law with a presser and a wave of his hand.

Not when we have an imperial city whereto all the wealth is drained; the richest counties now surround the capital; the economic malaise seen by the rest of the country is absent here.

Not when we have a kings court populated by arrogant beltway aristocracy and their lobbyist courtiers.

Not when we have unelected panels (EPA, etc) surpassing the Constitutional Process and thereby Congress and debate to make mandates that we vassals are forced to obey.
