and according to beck, voting for mccain was the wrong vote
well stated but can he explain why the RNC/GOP is attacking Rubio,Palin and the conservative base? Hmmmmmmmm?
Ron Paul + Glenn Beck = Disaster
Do you think Glenn Beck is the new Ron Paul, after all, Ron Paul is 77.
Have an opposing opinion on Beck and the hounds are unleashed. Beck is great for youngsters, but he’s not a serious conservative. For crying out loud, he just started learning history. In his words....
I love Beck. I also love Levin. they both have their own styles. Beck, Levin, Rush, Hannity, Quinn & Rose, Chris Plante, Jim Vicevich, Howie Carr - and many others less well-known - love their country and are all doing their part. We might not like their style, but they all are getting the word out. Pushing, shoving, preaching, chastising, and everything short of shouting from the rooftops. In their own ways, they are all calling us to action.
If an employer match for charities chosen by his employees is equal to financing terrorism in your eyes...well, then there's really no point in further discussion.
Didn't say that it was in the Constitution. What I'm saying was, here is an example of a Declaration of War that everybody acknowledges to be a, drum roll please, "Declaration of War".
When you instead say, "this 'Authorization of Force' thingee is really a Declaration of War, honest...", an opponent's obvious response is, "No, it's not! The word 'War' isn't even in there!!"
Ergo, I think that we should use a model which everyone acknowledges to be a "Declaration of War" -- like, for example, one which does actually use the word, "War". That way you force your opponents to make a straight up-or-down commitment, without a lot of weaselly wiggle room.
Levin is just a ranter to me. I don’t mind him and his book was great, but he seems to like to pick fights. I want to like everyone, but the Leviners are easily offended by anyone who comes around and says something not in their script.
Levin supports the Republican party through thick and thin. I understand. He wants to prop up his party because they are starting to stand up to Obama and the left.
But at the same time, we didn’t get to this point because Republicans did a good job or were able to convince enough people to vote for them.
A bunch of Republicans lost their way and Levin knows this. They didn’t hold up conservative principals. McCain is one of them that has not been doing a good job.
The fact that he was our nominee in 2008 and that he lost is exactly the problem. He chose Palin and I wish I would know all that went into how he picked her and what he had hoped to gain from it. Palin is good, but McCain is not.
The McCain team mishandled Palin and McCain sometimes sounded like he was lost. So my point is McCain has to go. He isn’t the best person to advocate conservative principals.
So that is where I am coming from and where Tea Parties are coming from. If the Republican establishment will prop up these bad people then that is no good.
Like Beck, I think they need to admit they have fallen astray of Conservative principals and want to return to them and thus they will oppose anybody trying to infiltrate the party with talk about big tents and holding hand with Obama.
Beck cals out all the people I think have hijacked the Republicans like Grhamnesty, McCain, and Hatch.
Anyways, I don’t mind anyone disliking Beck. All entitled to opinions, but if a bad candidate gets hoisted up again. That won’t be good for Republicans.
Tea Partiers aren’t going to support Democrat light.
Let make sure the Era of McCain is ended for good.
