COMMON SENSE: Many of the current issues, like repealing and replacing ObamaCare, are complex and not easy to understand. Other issues, like confirming Judge Neil Gorsuch, are easily comprehended. You have seen him and listened to how fair-minded and articulate he is. Brilliant, he is the epitome of what a judge should be.Yet, Minority Leader Chuck Shumer intends to filibuster Gorsuch’s nomination—not because he isn’t qualified, but because the Democrats do not want President Trump to have a judge on the Supreme Court. Schumer’s strategy is simple to understand, and it demonstrates the Democrats’ singular purpose—to impede and obstruct anything and everything President Trump does. It doesn’t seem like they will do anything to move this country forward.
So be it. Millions of people made their decision to vote for Trump because they wanted him to appoint Conservative Justices, and he has kept his promise. Gorsuch must be confirmed, and we must all remember how vicious and mean-spirited the Democrats have been. In 2018, there are many Democrats up for reelection from Red States. We need to oppose every one of them.

COMMON SENSE: This May, I will pick up a chip from AA for having twenty-five years of continuous sobriety—not bad for an Irishman. During this time, I have seen more people die from alcoholism and drug addiction than you can possibly imagine. 
COMMON SENSE: Senate Minority Leader Schumer has called for House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devon Nunes to step down. Nunes should not do this—period. To begin with, it’s none of the Senator’s business how the House of Representatives is run. Besides, what is wrong with the Chairman of the House Intelligence Committee meeting with the Commander-in-Chief of the United States anyway? 
COMMON SENSE: Although the House of Representatives refused to come together to repeal ObamaCare, President Trump has used his executive authority to dismantle the law’s coercive power. By directing the IRS to not impose any penalties for those who do not have the insurance ObamaCare mandates, Trump has done what Congress has refused to do. Without enforcing the penalty, ObamaCare has become a law that has no authority. It’s like spitting on the sidewalk, which remains against the law, but is never enforced.
COMMON SENSE: Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer has stated he will not vote for Judge Gorsuch’s confirmation to the Supreme Court. Instead, Schumer has threatened to filibuster the nomination, even though Gorsuch is definitely qualified to serve. 
COMMON SENSE: There’s no way to sugarcoat this. Yesterday was a fiasco, and I’m not even sure why. Perhaps the healthcare bill was so flawed that we are better off that it was not passed, perhaps not. Here’s the problem: The Republicans said they were competent enough to repeal and replace ObamaCare, which is a disaster, but they weren’t. Even worse, because of this failure, they have broken their promise to the American people and have become equally culpable for ObamaCare. 
COMMON SENSE: Today, in Canada, their Parliament is voting to make “Islamaphobia” a crime. So, our northern neighbors, in an effort to codify their politically correct nonsense into law, intend to criminalize calling a spade a spade. If I lived in Toronto instead of Atlanta, I would be guilty of criminal behavior routinely for simply stating the obvious. 
COMMON SENSE: Neither CBS, NBC, or ABC reported on the rape of a fourteen-year-old girl by her “fellow students,” who just happened to be seventeen and eighteen. These criminal illegal aliens live in a sanctuary county in Maryland. Since this is a major news story, why didn’t these networks report about it? 
COMMON SENSE: Yesterday, I posted about how a family of four owes $250,000 as their part of our national debt. This is real money and has to be repaid. Currently, Leftists and Progressives are incensed by President Trump’s proposed budget cuts—kind of like the way a kid screams at the grocery store when told that he or she can’t have everything they want. We simply must learn to live within our means.
