You said it. You can't beat the enemy playing defense. The GOP better start thinking about eating a LOT of crow and giving the American people some conservative ACTION these next two years, or they will be defensing themselves into non-existance......
1. Let's do that flat tax or sales tax and FIX the Income tax system!
2. Social Security, do something for those younger citizens who won't see a dime.
3. Get some conservative judges sworn in.
The only organization that gets my money now is the NRA. They at least deliver what they promise!
If we get the amnesty for illegals that Bush and Ted Kennedy want, there will never be another Republican president. The immigrants vote Democrat. That's why Ted Kennedy wants amnesty and millions of additional immigrants. My question is, why does Bush want the same thing?
I think the Republican party has already evaporated and 3rd parties will be just what they are - nothing. The two headed gov't party has no use for one of the two "parties", the Republicans, anymore. I think a lot of the elected Republicans know it and even though they aren't willing to leave the gravy train until they are forced to, most have been very busy getting "theirs" while they can which is why very few conservatives can think of anything kind to say in regard to the Republican party and their actions in the recent past.
A Clinton/Obama ticket is too far left to succeed, but you never know with half the country voting without using their brain.
That's why I'll be using family as my private army.
Hillary is not going to win.
And the Boy Scouts!
I agree. I do not think America is ready for a woman President. I can even see people who tend to vote democrat not voting or voting for the Republican candidate because of Hillary. I just don't see us voting in a woman, no way!
Hillary President?? She already was in the `90`s. Instant disqualification.
That said, the Republicans better come up with a better ticket and some dirt on Obama to squash that charamastic spell he seems to have on so many Americans.
The American people, by electing Shrillary in 2008, will get the socialist utopia they would richly deserve.
Yep , I think thats the way we are heading here. The step after that is Sharia Law . She wins , it's all over folks. Don't doubt that she just might win seeing the stupidity of most of America these days .
She has the MSM TOTALLY on her side , TONS of money and half of America who are still in LOVE with the Klinton name. don't slight this b*thc's chances of winning. We have to fight her tooth and nail . We slight her at our own peril.
I don't think so. When you have Democratic senators and congressman constantly calling the Commander-in-Chief a liar and war criminal on the floor, and former Democrat presidents regular complaining on foreign soil about the war effort, the Democrats are certainly giving aid and comfort to the enemy.
When they characterize every move the President makes as an inhuman, self-serving and incompetent mistakem they linit our nation's options both diplomatically and militarily.
By constantly screaming and criticizing without ever offering a single positive recommendation, the Democrats deliberately frame every issue in way that ensures that Presient and our nation publicly loses face in the most damaging way possible.
It cannot be denied that the difference between al Qaeda propaganda and common Democrat talking points is non-existent. In fact, the Democrats go out of their way to give as much propaganda ammunition to the enemy as the possibly can.
This war against Radical Islam is absolutely about who has the stronger will. If Iran, Syria, and all the other blood thirsty "insurgents" and Islamic whackos believe that the President and the US is weak, it damages our war effort immeasurably.
Imagine how different the war would be going, if the Democrats had instead acted in a way to show unified support for an action that Congress authorized, with more than a hundred thousand US troops in harm's way.
There is no question but that the war would be going better for the US if the enemy didn't believe that they could out last the support of the American people.
The Democrats have spent every day of the last three years telling the enemy that the US is weak, corrupt and inept, and that time is on the side of the "insurgents" and terrorists, who now have every reason to believe it is so.
And Hell will freeze over first.
In 1969, after Bobby was killed, Teddy was barely over the minimum age to be elected President, so it isn't surprising that he didn't make a bid for the nomination then. By 1972 Mary Jo Kopechne was dead...and it was too recent for people to pretend Chappaquiddick never happened. I'm not sure if he gave any serious thought to running in 1976 (when he was still only 44).
