I tended to focus on this issue in my response: NO AMNESTY!! Feel free to communicate the same as I fear amensty will tear apart the party and cause divisions that will take years upon years to heal.

I have done this, and they still sell out our country. Case in point.

My response to the RNC.


Whenever, I read about the President's low poll numbers, I can't help but think that while half of those disapproving of the president are hardcore left wingers who would disapprove of the President no matter what, the other half are probably conservatives frustrated that the President and the Republican party have seemingly abandoned the principles of conservatism that gave the party a majority in the first place. So, if this e-mail is actually an attempt to listen to the base, and not just build up the fund raising database, I do have some advice.

1. No Amnesty for illegal aliens. And get serious about building the border fence and enforcing our immigration laws. (Do more than a photo-op raid of a single meat packing plant.)

2. Quit spending like unrestrained Democrats, and quit creating multi-billion dollar new entitlement programs. Pandering for votes in this manner will not work, because those looking for such new entitlement programs will always vote Democrat.

3. Start sounding like Winston Churchill wend talking about Iraq. If a single American solider dies, the left portrays it as a sign the war is lost. We should be publicizing the enemy's losses and defeats and not simply accepting the left's politically motivated gloom assessment of the war effort. (As someone who recently returned from Afghanistan, the administration's refusal to confront the left on the lack of support for the troops is particularly disturbing)

So, in summary, if the RNC would worry about it's base and quit trying to win the approval of the DNC, we may not see a repeat of the November 06 debacle.

Nice post and thanks for your service.

Support a low tax rate, and state exactly what it is, like 6%, dropping the 'tax cut' that is so vague.

BUMP to that statement!!!!!! I agree wholeheartedly.

BTW, thanks for your service!!!!!!!!!!

It's time for the Republican Party to stand together. I do not believe that every Republican candidate needs to agree on every issue. We have moved from being the party of ideas to the party of group think; just like the Democrats.

When I was young, Republicans stood for limited government, strong foreign policy, standing by our friends and standing up to our enemies. There are too many litmus tests for our candidates to go through. I would never run for office because I do not hold positions the litmus testers expect.

I am a Evangelical Christian but I do not agree with Pat Robertson or Jerry Falwell on most of their political pronouncements; they do not speak for me. As much as I am opposed to abortion, I do not believe the issue should be the primary consideration of the worthiness of a candidate. Party members need the freedom to hold a range of positions on any topic.

Very good NavVet. I'd have gone further like push for a conservative social agenda like putting a halt to at least partial birth abortion, and quit funding others with MY money.
Quit taking my hard earned money and giving it to those "less fortunate" who have failed to work for their own. But good job .

Please give respect to Congressman & Presidential hopeful Tom Tancredo!

Ditto! ....nail on the head!

Man, did I let them have it!

If these hotshot pollsters and GOP lobbyists have to resort to a mail in campaign to figure out what went wrong, they're in bigger trouble than they know.

The GOP has failed the most basic duties of Government.

Until it relearns the concept of borders, recognizes the difference between legal and illegal, and dumps the aristocratic attitude, it's going to be very, very difficult for them to muster needed support.

While it's true that the Democrats are far worse, the argument 'Vote for us because the other guys are worse!' is absolutely pathetic and insulting.

In squandering the Reagan revolution, the GOP has long, uphill row to hoe in terms of regaining conservative trust.
It's all very unfortunate, because the country has and will continue to suffer for it.

Dude, they don't care what we think. They are suicidal.

[OpusatFR]

I have, many times. ~And written Congressmen and Senators...to no avail.

So because they lost their digs they want to know what I think? So they can ignore me and everyone else again?

Hey RNC.

Welcome to the dance.

Now look around and see if MAYBE you might notice there IS someone that brought you to the dance in the first place.

Now you know the meaning of the word "is."
