Common sense which isn’t nearly as common in the Stupid Party as it ought to be….Vance gets it, and he’s good at it. He does have perception problem with many women - because he doesn’t defer to them, they think he’s ‘mansplaining’ or misogynistic…in fact, taking them seriously and expecting them to function on the same plane he’s one is the highest form of respect, but the harpies don’t get it.

May I also point out “The person who agrees with you 80 percent of the time is an 80 percent friend and not a 20 percent enemy” Ronald Reagan

Too many on our side DEMAND 100% loyalty. And Yes I am talking about The Freedom Caucus. I sometime wonder if they Actually Want To Govern? Because it seem to me they just want to throw spitballs.

My old mentor used to often complain that the Republicans often failed in their budgetary duty to citizens' pocketbooks: When Dems would seek a compromise from a requested 10% increase, they would ask for a 5% increase. He would always ask why Republicans didn't ask for a compromise of a 5% reduction. Thus, the budget always goes up and not down.

For one or the other given definition of the word vaccuum, this may simply explain the primary record of Kablablah Harris.

I think people are catching on that "low taxes" just means high inflation or obscene borrowing.

What exactly is there to catch on to? The problem is not low taxes--it is government spending. There would be neither government-fueled inflation nor massive deficits if government concentrated on fulfilling its constitutional duties and stopped using our money to restrict our freedoms, make our lives more difficult, or pursue policies by which they and not we benefit. You are guilty of violating rule #2--i.e., allowing the left to define the debate over lower taxes as something that has to be "paid for" rather than Americans being able to keep more of their hard-earned money, which, by the way, happens to be a fundamental natural right.
