Discussion: Alaska GOP Weighs Reprimanding Murkowski For Opposing Kavanaugh

Oh you just go ahead Chairman Tuckerman Babcock, can you really afford to lose the Alaskan Federation of Natives? Law and Order only applies to certain Alaskans.

Last time I checked, she was an independent who caucused with Republicans because some neck-bearded paulertarian douche-bro won the Republican primary and the Alaska GOP (with a “central committee?” Really?) supported him over her. But have at it guys. By all means see if you can push her out. I’d be more than happy to have her caucus with the Democrats next Congress.

Suicide Death Cult Complains Murkowski Not Suicidy Enough

I’m sure she’s quaking in her fur-lined boots. The GOP tried to get rid of her 2 years ago, look how that turned out.

Every stinking Senator who voted for the little puke has totally ignored the fact that Kavanaugh lied to the committee and to the American people. The fact that he lied about many issues is enough to vote “no”. Everyone is focused on the industrial-grade bullshit about Kavanaugh not being the one who assaulted Ford; the fact that he lied is what even Flake said merited a “no” vote. (And an issue we must hammer home, over and over, is that the Supreme Court now has no credibility; it’s nothing but a partisan cesspool of conservative politics)

Didn’t Murkowski already beat these knuckle-draggers once? Are they really so anxious for another beat down?

Yes, the republican party really is a death cult and crime syndicate rolled into one, led by Mitch gravedigger McConnell, Paul eat catfood Ryan, and Donald father of lies Trump. How do stop a cult? Especially one this big and powerful?

Face it, they are hoping to be under Moscow rules by 2024. So why should they care.

As a Democrat in Alaska, I can confidently say that Senator Murkowski is bullet-proof. When she lost her 2010 primary to a Tea Bagger, the Party backed the Tea Bagger in the general. Drawing on Independent and Democratic constituencies, Murkowski then won in a historic write-in campaign (only Strom Thurmond had ever pulled that off). That victory essentially freed her from Party control, allowing her the independence to follow centrist leanings. Her politics (including her Kavanaugh vote) will enable her to draw on that same D/I coalition when she next faces a serious challenge from the Right.

Like she is shaking in her boots! She proved she and the Murkowski name are more powerful than the drunk Palin Republicans. People practiced writing her name correctly just to be sure to get it right on the ballot! No thanks to the republicans in Alaska she won. They should be kissing her ass just because she caucuses with the Republicans. She is one of the Senators who are mostly concerned with her State’s needs. Which includes healthcare for the needy.

Please do, AK Guardians Of Predators. After all, it worked out so well when you primaried her in 2010 and 101,091 Alaskans learned how to correctly spell Murkowski. So, please proceed. And don’t forget to add that she voted NO; she voted Present. We know how y’all are sticklers for accuracy. “Truth” be thy lodestar.

According the “Uncle” Ben Carson, she — and every other woman — needs to be re-educated.

I’m pretty sure she’s a Republican now. According to Wikipedia:

After securing the Republican Party nomination by a wide margin, Murkowski was again reelected to the U.S. Senate in 2016. Joe Miller, this time running as the Libertarian Party nominee, was again the runner-up in the general election.

I know she ran in 2010 as an independent, in 2016, she ran as a Republican.

And here we see the Republicans crossing into required obedience of the party (which means of Trump). In the near future, they will start trying to require obedience in order to interact with the government, unless we stop them at the ballot box. If we don’t, then they appear completely willing to put on the brown shirts and take us down a road to disaster.
