Brownback, serving a State post, informed Graves that he planned to run for Dole's seat in the next election. A furious Super RINO, Bill Graves (heir to the Graves Truck Line fortune) saw to it that every "Moderate" Republican in the State of KS, as well as nationally, donated their money and influence on Brownback's opposition in first the Primary with endorsements in favor of his opponent, then after he won the Primary, refused to endorse or support him in the General Election.
In the State of KS, the RINOs are more vicious than the DemocRAT Party. They hate Conservative Republicans with a vengeance and will support Democrats against any and all Conservative Republicans running for any office, period.
When W was running and held a fund raiser in KS (of course RINOs were very prominent), he quitely told Gov. Graves that he would never be a part of his administration, should he be elected, ever! I was at that event and privileged to see the look on Graves' face after W delivered the bad news. Bush remembered that Graves and his fellow RINOs had handed the 3rd District House seat to a DemocRAT, for the first time in 43 years, rather than support the conservative candidate. Dennis Moore still represents the 3rd Republican dominated District, because Johnson County is loaded with "Republicans for Moore" in every election since.
Brownback and his wife had 3 children when he first ran for the Senate and in the following years, have adopted bi-racial, special need children. The down side to his politics is, he feels for every downtrodden people and seem to overlook the fact that not every community wants to support them. He has become even more of that opinion, since converting to Catholicism.
I saw Rick Santorum at the Bush rally in Erie, PA (dem town) in September. The crowd treated Rick like a rock star, jumping to their feet and cheering from the moment he began to rise from his chair. When Arlen Specter was introduced, there was a general grumbling. If only honest votes are counted, Santorum shouldn't have a problem.
I'm tired of these self-righteous law and order social conservatives like Bush. They allow the government to forever grow and push for more rules and regulations on citizens, while ignoring the illegal invasion.
Its time for the South Park wing of the party to get its nominee!!
He's not the only politician in Washington who thinks that way, quite a few do. But by 2008 I believe you're going to find strong support for Tom Tancredo and others who feel it's time to clamp down, not give more amnesties.
You say it's only one issue but take a look at some of the immigration threads and see how much support there is for the McCain, Ted Kennedy, Sam Brownback amnesty. That is the most destructive bill to have been written let alone supported by so-called conservatives.
Its time for the South Park wing of the party to get its nominee!!
Alan Keyes in 08.
If he runs, he's my man in the primary. Until then, give me George Allen!
5 to 10 more years of unchecked illegal immigration coupled with another massive amnesty and this country's in big trouble.
KS Supreme Court, ruling Friday, 6/3/05, just stated that the State Legislature "must" give millions more to the State's School Districts - where they are to get these millions.
The liberals appointed to the KS Supreme Court by Dem. Sebelius and RINO Graves, don't tell us (even though we know as tax payers, there will be massive new taxes forced on us, unless someone steps forward in the KS Legislature and strips it from the massive funds currently being fraudulently being spent on other socialist giveaways or someone with another voice steps up to the plate, declaring "BASTA." If the case went to the U.S. Supreme Court, I have no doubt that those "internationalists" would refuse to take the case or agree with the KS Libs.
Thanks for that information, it's the first I've heard of that decision. The courts basically have no choice but to rule as they do when it comes to illegal aliens thanks to Plyler v Doe, which was a disastrous ruling by the USSC and needs to be overturned. I wouldn't be suprised if this latest from the KS Supreme Court is related somehow to our open border policies.
Don't know about Brownback. Would prefer someone I have seen prominently standing up against terror like Santorum.
If 9/11 didn't give our politicians reason to clean up the immigration mess I don't know what will.
Bush didn't even fire the dude who approved Atta and Hanjour's visas a year after they were dead .
Business as usual for the immigrant only employment economy.
