The Filibuster Power Grab

Even assuming we can replace Obama with someone who will try to restore American values after the 2016 election, the Reign of Moonbattery will corrode our country for decades, thanks to the Community Organizer in Chief packing courts high and low with radical left-wing ideologues.

To facilitate this operation, his top henchman Harry Reid has just killed the generations-old tradition of allowing the minority party to filibuster inappropriate judicial appointments in the Senate.

Voters were promised the fundamental transformation of America; they are getting it.

This means that any law that does not comply with the far left agenda stands to be stopped by activist courts for the rest of our lives. For an example of how it works, refer to California’s passage of Proposition 8 defending the sanctity of marriage. The voice of the people was immediately overruled by a homosexual judge. Due to liberal domination of the courts, the proposition was never implemented.

Here’s what Rand Paul has to say about Obama’s hatchet man Reid:

“He’s gotta have everything his way, he’s gotta control everything. This is more about them trying to control the agenda and shift it away from Obamacare than it is about anything else. Basically he’s become the dictator of the Senate. He’s going to bend and break the rules to get his way.”

This will blow up in their faces if voter fraud and the massive importation of Third World welfare colonists aren’t sufficient to prevent them from losing the Senate and White House in future elections. If you want an idea of how Democrats will screech if filibusters are not allowed to stand in the way of repealing their ObamaCare debacle, just look at some video of their self-righteous denunciations of the “nuclear option” when it was suggested (but never implemented) when the GOP had a Senate majority:

The hypocrisy is so blatant that you can’t help wonder why these tyrants don’t seem to worry anymore about voters rising up in anger and disgust to throw them out of office — as if they know something about our election process that we don’t.
