Democrats and their media fear democracy

 Fox News:

American democracy is likely coming to an end, at least according to liberal media networks such as MSNBC, ABC and CBS, as well as Democrat politicians.

On Tuesday, Fred Wellman, the former executive director of the Lincoln Project, tweeted, "Norms and traditions are going to end our democracy."

Later that day, The Washington Post published a column by Jennifer Rubin, who warned the impact of COVID-19 may be "hastening" the demise of democracy in the United States.

ROLLING STONE RIPS MANCHIN FOR NOT 'SAVING DEMOCRACY,' PORTRAYS BIDEN AS INEFFECTIVE IN PUSHING VOTING BILLS

"Trust in U.S. institutions has been declining for years, thanks to government scandals, economic dislocation, increased inequality and social media" Rubin wrote. "Now, evidence is growing that the coronavirus pandemic is making the phenomenon worse."

Prior to the column, Rubin warned about the fragility of American democracy, such as when she predicted in December that Sen. Joe Manchin’s, D-W.V. vote against President Biden’s Build Back Better plan could send American democracy hurtling to its demise.

Voting against Democrats is democracy in action and not its end.  Voting against the evils of liberalism is a smart thing for Americans to do.  The Republicans that are elected will, indeed. have to run for office again in the next elections. To do so they will have to demonstrate competence in office, something the current crop of Democrats has failed at.  BTW, we have a democratically elected republican form of government.  

Trump did a reasonably good job of governing despite Democrats' efforts to thwart democracy by pushing a fraudulent Russian collusion narrative and Biden won by the media conspiring to cover up his family corruption.

Should Republicans go ahead and add Supreme Court Justices to head off Democrats

Washington Post: Some Democrats eye adding more justices to the Supreme Court to change its ideological bent The once-remote idea has gained the attention of liberals angered by the GOP push to remake the federal courts. Probably the easy way to defeat this court-packing scheme is for Trump to propose doing the same thing now.  It would lead to Democrat denunciations and claims that it would be wrong, thereby blowing up any attempt by them in the unfortunate event of Democrats winning a presidential election.

29 % of companies say they are unlikely to keep insurance after Obamacare

Conn Carroll: A new survey of 368 midsize to large companies found that 29% of them are considering terminating their active employee health care plans when Obamacare is full implemented in 2014. Only 71% of employers surveyed said they did not expect to drop their health coverage, while 20% said they did not know and 9% said they were planning to exit. The latest survey, conducted by Towers Watson, echoes an ealier survey by McKinsey & Co. finding that 30% of private-sector employers were planning to drop their employee health insurance coverage by 2014. When the Congressional Budget Office crunched Obamacare's spending numbers, they estimated that only 7% of employees currently covered by employer-sponsored plans would lose their plans. ... This means the cost of the health care fiasco will be hundreds of billions more than estimated by the CBO and Congressional Democrat. It is also clear that Obama's pledge that you could keep your health care plan if you wanted t

Bin Laden's concern about Zarqawi's remains

James Robbins: ... Bin Laden suggests that President Bush should allow Zarqawi’s body to be returned to his family in Jordan, but this is a matter that is up to the Jordanian government, which so far has not shown much interest in facilitating a homecoming. Bin Laden mocks King Abdullah II, calling him a Coalition minion, and asking “w hat scares you about Abu Musab after he’s dead? You know that his funeral, if allowed to happen, would be a huge funeral showing the extent of sympathy with the mujahedin.” A large crowd would definitely turn out, though most people would be on hand to demonstrate their anger and disgust. Last November’s hotel bombings in Amman , masterminded by Zarqawi, are still fresh in people’s memory, and mentioning them to Jordanians has the same visceral impact as memory of the 9/11 attacks does here. Jordan has adopted a zero-tolerance policy towards those who choose to mourn the country’s least favorite son, and four opposition members of parliament who paid con
