    Then we would have runaway unemployment with all of those Government employees out of work since there would be no need for their services.

    Many if not most of the government employees do what they are tasked to do. However if a true businessman were to look at what we're paying for, as the phrase goes....... heads would roll.

    If you nominate him now, you lose the opportunity at EVER having a pro-gun justice. You know you're not getting one with Hillary if she were to win, but why give up the chance if either way it's a anti-gunner? What they should be doing is burning the clock.

    One of the white house spokesman said yesterday Obama would stick to his appointee through the end of his term.

    If that is the case then there is no need to rush to a vote.

    I just can't get onboard when the opposition tries to tell me that it is in my best interest to agree with them.

    It is misinformation that the right does not believe in food stamps or other forms of welfare. The right just believes in them in much greater moderation.

    Even with a split court there was a favorable 2A ruling on stun guns/tasers.

    They vacated the ruling and sent the case back to MA Supreme Court citing Heller and McDonald precedent established that weapons not common at the time the 2nd was established are still covered and protected.

    Sets a bit of fear at ease for now.

    Every single political survey I take I end up being labeled as a right leaning libertarian. Hahaha.
