From the description:

The NCNA will bring together citizens from across the country to begin a dialogue with the American people through a series of forums, town halls, and an online effort that will engage people in a discussion to meet our common challenges and build a stronger country through common-sense ideas. The NCNA will be a dynamic, forward-looking organization that will amplify the common-sense and wisdom of our fellow citizens through a grassroots dialogue with Republican leaders.

These morons are just trying to take advantage of the tea party movement. They are well aware that for every patriotic American who civilly protested on April fifteenth, there are many times that number who were in complete agreement with them that for various reasons couldn’t attend a rally. In my humble opinion, it is because we have jobs and other resposibilities. They are now trying to co-opt this new born revolution. Like all new borns, it will grow and thrive if provided enough nourishment.

I DO NOT want a CHANGED America
I DO NOT want a NEW America.
I WANT America. I want theCountry that ourfounder fought and died for.The Country my great grandfather, my grandfather, my father and I fought for. I want the America our CONSTITUION written by of founders set -up, NOT the America that5 power hungery politicians and feelgood judges have made it out to be.
Obama and his ilk just do not want to get it.
The current Republicans and their ilk just seem to be to cowardly to get it.

Courtesy of the same clowns who brought us to this point...sorry to see Bobby jindal’s name with that crowd.

Someone need to email them the YouTube clip of Congressman Barrett’s boo out at the Greenville SC Tea Party. Make sure to let the RINO list know that there’s a message on the video for them.

[calcowgirl]

You're looking at politicians that have been in office 20, 30, and 40 years.

And now (after destroying the party) they expect you to believe they want to listen?

McCain? Dreier? McCarthy? pffft!

[R. Scott]

I’m always leery of “common-sense ideas”.

BIG Bump to that!

[Penny]

SECOND he bump! I came to write that I'll take the America before the likes of Teddy the murdering drunk, but I'll settle for this better comment!

Cantor, Romney, and Jeb Bush had the first “town hall” in Arlington, officially launching the group.

CSPAN covered it yesterday.

[R. Scott]

I listened to the first few minutes - I’ll have to listen to the whole hour later.

"The NCNA will be a dynamic, forward-looking organization that will amplify the common-sense and wisdom of our fellow citizens through a grassroots dialogue with Republican leaders."

Great. Another imbecilic "listening tour" by the same hard of hearing Bozos who've drifted so far away from our core values as to be virtually indistinguishable from the Dems. Now they're advocating further drift, cloaked as GOP "progressives" (Obama-lite). Here's my message to the GOP: Stop the NCNA bread and circus. Lead, follow, or get out of the way.

[calcowgirl]

It's really a strange "listening" tour.

The first 17 minutes were Cantor, Bush, then Romney talking. Then they went to "questions" and each of them (C,B&R) are answering what they think should be done. Mitt was touting how he solved the healthcare problem. Jeb is big on education. All I hear them saying is how government is going to solve everyone's problems.

I'm now up to the 35 minute mark.

One somewhat amusing thing at the beginning -- Mitt made a comment about free pizza... and then said no, that it wasn't a democratic event. But all of their publicity is touting this thing as a bipartisan policy discussion. These guys have absolutely zero vision or consistency.

[rawcatslyentist]

Socialist VS Slowcialist.....

Time for Tea!!!!!

[Man50D]

The OP(formerly the GOP) hasn't been listening to the people for years and suddenly after the tea parties they will listen?

Jim, I see your buddy Mitt Romney is on the list.

[Iscool]

Only one problem...These fellas are no longer the leaders...The are the led...

I have no intention of following the losers any longer...

This list of names tells you who's be sucked into the Dark Side. It's a shame that those who associate with this group will forever be lumped in with them and kill their future with the blossoming new Conservative movement.
