Well, I'm not disagreeing with your summary of the impact of the Left's bloodlust. I'm just not wishing it onto Andrew. It was meant lightly, I'm sorry if it offended.

Please explain to me how corporations, with a commodity or service to sell to the consumer, actually pay any taxes? Sure, they fork over money to the USG, but it doesn't cost them a cent that they don't pass along to the consumer.

Hidden taxes on the consumer. Add it up, people. Your tax rate isn't what you send in the Uncle Sam. It's much more.

A nit to pick: Canaries in the coal mine don't sing out a warning. They die. That's the warning.

Inasmuch as AB is "taking one for the team" by being on the front lines, I'd say it's why they're trying to kill his reputation and his influence. That he keeps on tweeting tells us that the Left's noxious fumes are merely smelly, not deadly!

I know. I should've used the "sarc" tag!

More like the Liar of the Senate.

The Left , the Proggies, had no other means of getting rid of their useful idiots once their usefulness is spent or their image is compromised. That was then. After spending two Kennedys' lives, they had incrementally moved our moral compass far enough off course that Teddy was allowed to live his lascivious lifestyle pretty much out in the open. He saved his own life twice. Once, while supposedly escaping a sunken vehicle, and secondly by getting away with murder. Lucky Teddy. He became the Lion of the Senate. And conferred his blessing on Barry.

I wonder where Barry goes when he ditches the MSM? I mean, it must be pretty bad for him to feel he has to ditch his best and closest allies while he takes off in a car to . . . somewhere.

If you will take the pains to re-read Mr. Price's essay, and the point of it, I believe you will note that this is not a discussion of good v. evil, but the inherent problems of concentrating power. I have no doubt that Mr. Cheney acted in a way that he felt would best protect us from our enemies. He took fully the constitutional position that the Executive Branch, thus the President, was the Chief Law Enforcement Officer. He worked pretty hard to restore power to the Presidency.

I posit that the "concentration of power," to use Mr. Price's premise, has led us to a similar predicament now, with a President who does not have our best interest at heart. If nothing else, check out the shorthand version of Cheney's policy formulation on Wikipedia.

It behooves us, as thinking Americans, to rightly judge our actions, and not just "root for our guy!" This takes a sobriety that doesn't translate well into soundbites and tweets and SNL skits. Nor does it lend itself to frothy forums. But Andrew's piece here is quite thought-provoking. And so, mine were provoked. Hopefully, yours will be as well.

Ah yes. The day we learned that an entire presidency would hang two little letters forming one little word, "Is."
