2014 Midterm Elections a Referendum for Constitutional Convention





Now that the dust has settled, we plebeians have to wade through myriad analysis of what last week’s elections meant.  Some of these pundits are delusional.  They believe a resounding ass whooping is a call for bipartisanship.   Only Beltway elites could come to that conclusion.  No, what we want is gridlock!  The more of it the better!  We’ve had enough of republicans and democrats working together.  I’d say we’ve had about $18 trillion worth of bipartisanship and a near dissolution of our Constitution and federalist system.


What this past election was about is a call to dismantle the Washington D.C. Death Star.  Do I have faith that this freshman class will channel their Obi Wan Kenobi and fight these Potomac storm troopers?  Of course not, they’ll take a dip into that open sewer and become zombified establishment republicans.  They’ll have the urge to “work together to get the job done for the American people.”  I believe the “establishment” has done enough.  It’s time conservatives held the line and look to the states to save our asses.  That is where our “Hope and Change” will prevail.  The Washington Post reported the following:


Republican gains extended to state legislative chambers as well. Before Election Day, the GOP controlled 59 of 98 partisan legislative chambers across the country. On Tuesday, preliminary results showed Republicans had won control of both the Nevada Assembly and Senate, the Colorado Senate and state House chambers in Minnesota, New Mexico, Maine, West Virginia and New Hampshire. That would give the party control of 67 chambers, five more than their previous record in the modern era, set after special elections in 2011 and 2012. It also would give Republicans total control of 24 states, in which they hold the governor’s mansion and both chambers of the state legislature (Nebraska’s unicameral legislature is technically nonpartisan, but in practice Republicans control the chamber by a wide margin). Democrats, by contrast, are likely to control all three legs of the governing stool in only six states.



Since that was published republicans have taken control of 70 percent of all legislatures.  It is possible for states to call for a constitutional convention and roll back the progressive agenda.


Three fourths of the states can call for a constitutional convention.  If we are to save this republic from executive tyrants, bureaucratic despots, and activist judges we need the states to step up and stand up to Washington D.C.  We need to repeal the 14th, 16th, and 17th amendments and dismantle that thuggish bureaucratic state.  Our lives, liberty and property depend on it.

Senator Kay Hagan's War on the Middle-Class





One can take so much of this shameless shilling by the Charlotte Observer for their pet snake, Senator Kay Hagan.  This Sunday’s birdcage liner is replete with praise for North Carolina’s first term democrat, who in their eyes, is a moderate, independent politician who bucks her party, but doesn’t want to mention those particular issues because it might alienate her base.  Please!


Last week, the Charlotte Observer’s editorial board gave Senator Kay Hagan a lukewarm endorsement.  Here is the Washington Post’s synopsis:


  • "Kay Hagan has been a disappointment"
  • "She has done about the minimum you'd expect from a U.S. senator, with few if any notable legislative achievements."
  • "She has a chronic reluctance to take firm positions on controversial issues"
  • "...she needs to accept that while North Carolina is a difficult, divided state to represent, it deserves a senator who is not perpetually fearful of upsetting half the state’s voting population."
  •  
The Observer ends the endorsement by noting that they "recommend voters give her another chance to show she is up to it."

What a load of crap.  Senator Kay Hagan has pushed her socialist agenda down our throats.  Can anyone say Obamacare?  And the Charlotte Observer has been one of her biggest cheerleaders.  Here is an excerpt from today’s rag:

“If an idea works for middle-class families, I am for it,” Hagan says in the ad. ‘The nonpartisan National Journal ranked me the most moderate senator.  Not too far left, not too far right – just like North Carolina.”

That is laughable.  So let’s take a look at Senator Kay Hagan’s not too subtle war on America’s middle-class.  I will use a friend of mine as an example.  He has a family of four and works for a major hospital in the Piedmont.  Since Obamacare has been implemented, his insurance premiums cost as much as his mortgage payment.  His deductible has risen to $12,000 a year.  Does that sound affordable to you?  And he works for a hospital!
Senator Kay Hagan also wants to raise the minimum wage.  Here is another misguided attempt at economic redistribution.  One must wonder if these retards think through the consequences of their actions.  Obviously, as Obamacare has demonstrated, they don’t.
If democrats raise the minimum wage the cost of goods and services will increase.  This should be a no brainer.  But another consequence is a pay cut for skilled workers who have put their time, energy and money into learning a trade.  How would you like some snot nosed kid, fresh out of school,  with little work experience and discipline make as much as you, a veteran of 10 to 20 years?  I believe I would be a little pissed off. 
Does Senator Kay Hagan believe an employer will give that skilled worker a pay raise commiserate with a minimum wage increase?  Has she thought it through?  Of course, not.
Democrats’ ideas don’t help the middle-class.  As a matter of fact, they practically declared war on them.

Senator Kay Hagan Rescued by Patron Harry Reid




One of the most despised characters in the U.S. government has reared his ugly head in North Carolina.  Senator Harry Reid will do anything to maintain his dictatorial powers in the Senate and he needs Kay Hagan.

 Reid’s Super PAC has made a difference.  The most ‘moderate democratic senator’ has benefitted from her patron.  The Wall Street Journal reported the following:

Senate Majority PAC, for example, has spent $8 million in North Carolina, where Sen. Kay Hagan, who entered the race as one of the Democrats' most endangered incumbents, has led in almost every recent poll. Roughly $6 million has been spent by super PACs on behalf of Thom Tillis, her GOP opponent, since 2013. Democrats have run about 4,200 ads in the state in recent weeks compared with 3,300 by Republicans, according to Wesleyan's analysis of data produced by tracking firm Kantar Media/CMAG.



If Kay Hagan is reelected we can expect that 96% moderate voting record to shoot up to 99% libtard.  Tar Heels will be surprised to find out they have the same values as Senator Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi.

NC Tea Party Flips Off Republican Establishment




Establishment republicans are astonished that Senator Kay Hagan is leading their candidate in the polls.  Off year elections are supposed to favor their party.  So why isn’t Thom Tillis shellacking Obama’s puppet?  North Carolina, after all, isn’t a liberal hell hole.


 Prominent moderates in the GOP have come to the Old North State to save their handpicked candidate.  Jeb Bush, Chris Christie, and Lindsey Graham have campaigned for Tillis to no avail.  How can this be?  They are the rock stars of the Beltway.  The sheeple are supposed to blindly follow the Potomac toilet bowl’s crowned princes.  Why are the whelps sniffing around Tillis’ leg instead of humping it, like they are supposed to?





The answer is the Tea Party.  Establishment republicans, such as Karl Rove, thought that they could waltz into this state and smear conservatives without consequence.  Tillis didn’t help himself by ignoring them.  He refused to attend Tea Party sponsored debates.  That decision alone could prove fatal.


The days of establishment republicans running roughshod over conservative constituents are over.  Granted some tea partiers will vote for Tillis, if anything, to keep Harry Reid from dictating the Senate.  But others see Washington D.C. for what it really is.  It’s going to take a lot more than voting political parties out of power.

Sean Haugh the Craziest Senatorial Candidate in America




A North Carolina libertarian has just been dubbed the craziest senatorial candidate in America.  Sean Haugh has taken to tweeter to smack down republican candidate Thom Tillis and his supporters, as a bunch of homicidal racist, hell bent on mass murder.  And this guy has a solid 5% of the vote. Wow!






Here he is in a video telling the rest of us to get along with one another.  What a hypocrite.

Truth and the Voter Run Senator Kay Hagan's Gauntlet of Lies




Election Day is nearing and liberals are frantic.  North Carolina is inundated with campaign ads.  Senator Kay Hagan’s leg humpers will do whatever they can to get her back to Washington D.C.  So she can shove their agenda down our throats.  Truth once again has become a casualty in this Liberal War on the American People.


I’m reminded of an old Clint Eastwood movie, “The Gauntlet” where a police officer is tasked to get a witness to the courthouse.  Unfortunately for Ben Shockley and his charge, powerful people want them dead before they can get there.  In this case, truth and the voter are running Kay Hagan’s and her minions’ gauntlet of lies while they’re trying to make it to the polls.





 Here is an ad outright lying about Thom Tillis’ record on education:







They claim he cut $500 million from the education budget.  Not true.  Carolina Journal reported the following:


The simple explanation is that the $500 million figure is essentially an apples-to-oranges comparison. I have collected the enacted budget figures from the last seven years. I chose this timeframe to include data from the last recession. The state budget had to be cut during this time to reflect a decrease in tax revenue to the state, so I thought this would give a truer picture of what has happened with education spending in North Carolina. 

The commercials say, “Speaker Thom Tillis cut almost $500 million from education.” Thom Tillis has been speaker since the 2011-12 fiscal year, when the first budget was passed under his leadership, until the most recent budget that was passed in the 2014-2015 fiscal year. If we look at all the budgets under his leadership, total education spending increased by nearly $1 billion. If we look at the most recent budget cycle, it increased by a little over $700 million






I wonder what the line is on truth making it to the polls.  Odds are against it.

Senator Kay Hagan Weathers Obamacare Storm




North Carolina’s embarrassment proclaimed her candidacy for another senatorial term.  Unlike her god, Barack Hussein Obama, she couldn’t turn around and walk away from the press.  A fearless reporter dogged her on her numerous reassurances that the citizens of the Tar Heel State could keep their doctors, hospitals, and insurance if they liked it.  Of course, that turned out to be the lie of the year, dare I the century.  Here is our intrepid senator weathering the Obamacare storm:










I seriously doubt this reporter works for the Charlotte Observer.

Ad Holds Sen. Kay Hagan Accountable for Obamacare



Senator Kay Hagan has long row to hoe.  Her support for Obamacare and all the leftist policies that she helped to implement will not be forgotten.  Americans for Prosperity is leading the way.  Television ads are beginning to air throughout the state making sure that all North Carolinians are aware that this woman is responsible for foisting this healthcare debacle unto us all.

The News and Observer reported the following:
At a news conference Tuesday at the Sheraton Raleigh Hotel, Phillips said “the goal is to hold Sen. Hagan accountable for her decisive vote to make Obamacare the law of the land. She has repeatedly worked and voted to uphold this law with all of its harmful impacts on North Carolinians from all walks of life. We are determined that this issue stay in the foreground.”
The group also plans to run a grass-roots campaign against Hagan that will include social media and knocking on doors.
In September, Americans for Prosperity began a $3million ad campaign in six states, including North Carolina, criticizing the new health care law, but it did not specifically target senators. Those ads mostly ran in states where Democratic senators were facing tough re-election fights next year.
The law, officially the Affordable Care Act, requires most Americans to buy insurance but provides federal subsidies to those whose incomes qualify. It also sets minimum standards for what benefits insurance policies must provide.
In a teleconference held before the new TV campaign was released, Hagan stood by her support for the health care law, saying it would provide health insurance to millions of people with preexisting conditions and ultimately help control health care costs. She said it will also help prevent people from being driven into bankruptcy by huge medical bills, or being unable to change jobs because they can’t obtain health insurance.
“I am not concerned with what outside special interests have to say, where outside money is coming into North Carolina,” Hagan said. “I am talking every day to people in North Carolina about the issues that are important to them, and I am going to continue focusing on my number one priority and their number one priority, which is jobs and the economy and getting this economy on the rebound.”
The quickest way to turn around this economy is to get rid of clueless libtards like Senator Kay Hagan.  This woman has done enough damage to this state and country.
