Another confirmation: there is only one party in Washington, D.C. and its members have no regard for the Constitution or the people. As people are realizing, the solution is not at the ballot box or the jury box. The government’s solution is the cartridge box, enslavement and the elimination of the rule of law under the Constitution. We are reaping the consequences of being a nation that is not under God.
I welcome an opposing opinion. In fact, I want to be proven wrong.

Small consolation … NC two NAY …
However, you’re not wrong, old friend.
I think if Burr’s vote was needed he would have voted Yea. He only votes “correctly” when his vote is not needed. It is as important to know when they vote as how they vote. I bet if you check, Burr voted after this was a done deal. As did others. They have no principles and will vote politics rather than country.
Exactly right. For further proof, McCain voted Nay but his allies (Ayotte and Graham) voted Aye. This nomination should have been dead on arrival.
