How the neverending wars make us safe is beyond me.

They make politicians safe — pull in big bucks from defense contractors, keep certain businesses alive in their states, and they get to appeal to the basest instincts of pseudo-patriotism with the "Support our Troops" mantra.

Here it is. Nothing keeps an impotent hillbilly in the Republican ranks like a good war.

...and verifiable security of intended votes. There is cheating and has been for decades at different levels.

If you mean to suggest that there is any significant levels of voter fraud anywhere, that's rightwing bullshit used as the justification for vote suppression.

Sen. Mike Lee received a visa to travel to Russia this week, according to his spokesman, after the Kremlin denied visas to several of his colleagues.

Democratic Sen. Chris Murphy of Connecticut and Republican Sen. Ron Johnson of Wisconsin, both members of the Foreign Relations Committee, said last week the Russian government refused to grant them visas.

If I actually believed in the end of times rapture thing, I would really think we are near it with all the earthquakes, hurricanes, wars and rumors of war... Unfortunately I believe we humans are doing it to ourselves and not being very good "husbands of the earth." I love the beach and vacations but I am glad I don't live near a ocean at least.

The only proven cheating has been on the republican side. And don't contradict me because I am never wrong. You can't site one time I have ever been wrong.

@blatham,

It doesn't matter the source. You wouldn't accept anything less than the man himself telling you in person.

@edgarblythe,

Well, "news" coming from such a very conservative political journalism website should be read at least with caution, I think.

But it certainly can be informatives for progressives.

@Walter Hinteler,

The Democrats centrists follow are also conservatives. Not much of a jump.

@edgarblythe,

Conservative Democrats are a good thing. The Democrats need more conservatives in their ranks.

The Democrats block all the anti-cheating efforts that would expose their cheating.

Yes I can. You were recently wrong when you said that the NRA is a front for the gun industry:
