Why would they feel shame? Should I feel shame for crushing ants underfoot?

They don’t feel shame for torturing, murdering, or raping us, because they don’t consider us humans. Only the Ruling Class are humans. The rest are slaves, property, livestock, and expendables.

People should clearly think on and accept this concept, else they will be obliterated in the war to come as they sit there frozen asking “why”.

Out of the ones that are humans, they listen to a group of leaders that constitute 1-5% of the population. Those leaders listen to the Leader, in this case Obama and Reid Co.

So 1% controls the 52%. 52% controls the 99%. Democracy functions as it normally does.

This is democracy on display. The majority rules, and the minority can suck it.

If the Senate does away with the filibuster, then the party with a simple majority can do anything it wants; they don’t even have to bother listening to the minority. (Perhaps I exaggerate, because there are were Rules . . .) The voice of the minority is silenced. All the Americans who voted for Republicans have no say in the laws by which they will be governed.

How many Americans have been silenced?

I went through the articles on Wikipedia for the 2008, 2010 and 2012 Senate elections and added up all the Republican votes and all the Democrat votes in each election to get the total votes for the current Senate. This isn’t scientific, and I might have made some errors, but my numbers show that Republicans got 47.85% of the votes in those three elections, and the Democrats, 52.15%.

So 47 percent of Americans have no say in the Senate. Like Obama, the Democrats “won.” And, as with Obama, the American people lost.

It’s not too hard for me, I’ve always been very quiet and don’t talk much, and quite frankly, she’s more interested in friends and family than politics. It does get a bit hard to hold my tongue when some of her friends come over and start on the liberal talking points.

I do get complete dispensation on “climate change” since I have a PhD in physics and spent thirty years in three of the top US Physics departments. I like to say that climate scientists would have a hard time predicting high noon if you handed them an atomic clock and get away with it.

It’s going to be the sixth year of Barry’s stewardship. Look what happened to Bush in 2006,… and all other presidents.

They are virtually guaranteed to loose seats in both chambers.

As against that: we’re dealing with Chicago on the Potomac — the destroyer of worlds.

Oh dear.

You are probably making the right decision. I probably would not be able to hold my tongue. Very difficult position to be in.

That is why I wrote in my earlier post on the nuclear option:

[Harry Reid] is counting on holding onto the Senate in 2014, and he may well do so.

I do not see a Republican victory in the Senate as anywhere near inevitable. But I do see it as possible.

And even if they do, Obama still holds the power of the veto. At best, regaining the Senate without a strong majority is a holding action.
