Heather, I could write a book in response to this. Your devotion to your purpose and your relentless pursuit and exposure of the political evils that conftont us are commendable and admirable. You're among the best at what you do.

You're correct in your analysis. I believe - hope might be a better word - that communism is not the bugger-bear it was in the McCarthy era, and that a weenie like Mike Johnson is too weak to effectively wield that sword. Keep up your wonderful work. You and others like you are making a difference. We all have to keep the pressure on. Everyone needs to do whatever they can to pull on the wagon. I believe - firmly believe - that with your work and the work of others like you we will take our country back.

We cannot - will not - fail.

God bless you, my dear. Keep up your excellent work. (I'm 86. Be 87 in a month. Us old folk can say 'my dear'. When I was younger I never could have said that.) 🙄

Mike Johnson has a finite number of patented responses, none of which he actually grasps.

Oh, my god, he blatantly admits to running a protection racket! Surely the Democrats could use this quote in advance of the mid-terms!

Johnson makes no pretense at doing the job of Speaker. He is nothing more than an enforcer for the Orange offal squatting in the WH and a shill serving up lies and fear. It is very much in the mode of McCarthy except that Ike was not sorry to be rid of the Senator when he crashed and burned in an alcoholic blaze.

To me, Mike Johnson is one of the scariest people. Like a wolf in sheep's clothing. And starting to shed the ruse.

Samuel, you keep on saying that. It’s to make up for all the people who called me dearie and honey and sweetie at my age of 79! I tell them, you don’t know me so quit calling me a familiar name!

Communists??? Reds? Commies? Mein Gott in Himmel! Where did this strange idea come from? Even Russians are not really communists anymore! Just shows how DATED the American RIGHT IS!

Don't know if I should call this stance: Outdated (by about 40 years!)? Or Ignorant? Or Stupid?

Or..... Wishful? (So they can have a FOE to battle against? So they can have SOMETHING to sustain their weird beliefs!!)

Oh, I just had some notices from two or three Repubs: "Hey Smart Ass.... We are only 4-5 years from implementing our new 'Time Manipulator System!' Our only problem that is our committee's problem: they can't decide which era they want to travel back to! Most of us are anxious to move back to the presidency of Ronald Reagan!"
