Bill Whittle on Republican Rejection of its own Philosophy
Dan Miller's Blog ^ | November 22, 2012 | Dan Miller

Posted on 11/22/2012 12:59:21 PM PST by DanMiller

The video takes only fifteen minutes to watch but has many hours worth of excellent ideas.

Here is a link to a recent presentation by Bill Whittle. Unfortunately, I haven't found a way to embed it so if you want to see it, please go to the link. This screen shot is the best I could do.

I won't try to rephrase Mr. Whittle's comments here; he says it far better than I could.

I’m tired of the Republicrat Party; and even daring to hope that anyone except the “country club golfing buddies jockeying for a golf date with President Obama” is ever going to be heard by them. By kicking Rush Limbaugh, Governor Palin, Allen West, and the Tea Party to the curb while kowtowing to the Democrats on EVERYTHING, I am done with the Republican Party. Period. Just a game; a game I quit!

All the people who can articulate the message say they can’t run for office. I agree with him but the RINO is established and happy to be in second place. We have to get them out of the way.

I agree, and offered some suggestions here on how we might have a fighting chance of doing just that. It will take sustained effort, beginning now, but it's possible.

Thanks! The more people who listen to Mr. Whittle, and think about what he has to say, the better. He makes more sense than anyone else around.

Bill Whittle is one of the nation's finest conservative thinkers. Before he was a multi-media commentator, he wrote a series of essays which propelled him to prominence among the right-wing commentariat.

If you've never read any of Bill's stuff, I highly recommend it. Here's a link to his blog. Essay titles are located down and on the right hand side:

Eject!Eject!Eject!

Many thanks! I’ve bookmarked them for a new folder under “news” titled “Bill Whittle.” It’s close to the top of my “News” list, to which I refer daily.

Everything he says is well worth considering.

In my opinion, the things Bill Whittle says in that talk, are the ONLY things worth considering.

Bottom line....Bill proves to us that what Ronald Reagan said about selling conservatism is true. Give it to the people 100% pure and undiluted, and you'll never lose to Democrats again. Water that message down, and try to out-Democrat the Democrats, and you'll never win again.

If Mitt had unabashedly stood up for our timeless American values in his campaign, and if he'd fearlessly enunciated them at ever opportunity, he'd have won the election with little effort. Even with every possible advantage, Obama just barely won a second term. He would have been beaten like an old sock, if our guys had been better messengers.

I KNOW she could be that person, and I'm hoping and praying that she is. Sarah IS the person Bill Whittle is describing.

Someone sent this too me and I watched it through twice (and my attention span is 22 milliseconds). Sent it to many friends and family. Too bad RUSH is off for a couple of days.

Switching forums on my NEW thread from “news” to “bloggers” seems to have confused the Google-bots. :(

Perhaps a post on THIS “keyword = billwhittle” thread will help them to fnd their way back.
