HAPPY MOTHERS DAY!

Being the party of no is not the answer. Having principles, and being positive about what happens when party members adhere to them is what will bring the next upturn in Republican representation.
NO to more bailouts
NO to all this spending
NO to HOMSEXUAL MARRIAGE
No to a TON of things
Then also tell the public what you are for....better paychecks....better, less expensive health care....less Frivolous Law Suits...etc.
Republicans need to show outrage and righteous indignation against 0bama’s Big Government power grab every single day. This is where their constituents are. This is where the story is. They need to call it what it is. Fascism, gangsterism, totalitarianism. They need to LEAD, and Americans will wake from their slumber to follow.
It's not them which need these "implants" it's us out here, the electorate which needs the operation of nominating and hiring conservatives, not moderates or rino's!
Besides being the party of “no”, they need to be the party of “no RINO”.
The OP could have been the party of “no” socialism long ago but instead chose the path of incremental socialism with the big tent mentality to expand the voter base. The result is a party of “no” Conservatism. Suddenly trying to improve their image by going to a pizza parlor couldn’t be more disingenuous. It’s tantamount to the socialist RATS in the past trying to reshape their image.
What has gotten into Fred? He’s making sense.
This Beltway elitist Republican had to get in his dig about social conservatives, and he fails to remind us that he is right with Obama on the amnesty for 20 million illegals question. In that case, he wants the GOP to be the party of YES.
The GOP has nothing to gain listening to Fred Barnes. He seems confused, trying to praise this listening tour approach, and at the same time advising the party to be the party of NO. Except on amnesty for illegals, of course. - Do they need to listen first and say no later, or should we have leaders who already know when to say no?
Exactly. Know why we lost the last presidential election? Duh.....we nominated someone who “reached across the aisle”.
We allowed the mainstream media to choose our candidate. They wanted McCain...and when they got him...the media immediately turned on him.
The media is a large political player...they have NO objectivity. They turned on Hillary because they wanted Obama...and if they couldn’t have Obama, McCain was their fallback candidate.
If we had nominated a true conservative...we’d have won.
If its so obvious that Barnes gets it, perhaps some Repub will figure it out. We need a Rebel Republican movement.
Pray for America
NO! to tax increases!
NO! to budget deficits!
NO! to bailouts for millionaires!
NO! to back room billion dollar deals with banks and Wall Street!
YES! to transparency, honesty and accountability in the Federal government!
NO! to subsidies for wealthy Agri-Business to keep food prices high!
NO! To Obama's Wealth Redistribution!
NO! to open borders and handouts for illegals!
NO! to protected status for sexual perverts and child molesters!
NO! to bringing Islamic terrorist prisoners into the USA!
NO! to tax cheats in the President's cabinet!
NO! to pandering; YES! to equality and equal treatment for all!
Unfortunately, today’s Republican party’s approach is to first accept the Democrat premis, on anything from Socialized Medicine to the Global Warming Hoax and then just argue that we have a slightly better idea for achieving the same policy that the loony left is putting forward.
The results are predictable. See John McLame 2008.

Same old Pizza just with extra cheese (whiz).
That is so white-bread, so corporate, so RNC clueless, barely out of the beltway.
Don't any of these idiots have any street political feel?
But – but JEB and MIT have a BETTER IDEA!
· By all means, let’s have the conservative movement “…leave Reagan behind…” and invent some sappy, empty phrases — like “Hope” and “Change” —
that the ACORN morons can get a grip on and they’ll flock to the GOP.
Here are some that might work:
WHAT THIS COUNTRY NEEDS IS MORE BUSH!
A CHICKEN IN EVERY POT.
2 CARS IN EVERY GARAGE.
A FREE LATE-TERM ABORTION FOR EVERY UNWANTED PREGNANCY.
A GAY BABY-SITTER OR TEACHER FOR EVERY CHILD.
FREE MONEY FOR EVERYONE.
DEFICITS ARE OUR FRIEND.
MORE LIKE THE DEMOCRATS THAN THE DEMOCRATS.
WHAT THIS COUNTRY NEEDS IS MORE MUSLIMS.
KISS A TYRANT — KICK AN ALLY.
A FREE ILLEGAL HISPANIC HOUSEBOY IN EVERY HOME.
Yeah, that’s the ticket. Let’s hurl ALL the traditional and time-tested values on which America became, in under 2 centuries, that shining city on a hill, a beacon of freedom and a world leader over the side to appeal to the ravening masses of MTV, VHI, government school indoctrinated imbiciles that ACORN inticed to the polls with a pack of smokes and a pint of Ripple.
Sounds like a HELL OF A PLAN TO ME!!!
Feel free to add YOUR suggestions.
Forget No...
Make the HELL NO!!!
Any politician that uses the phase "common-sense ideas" is up to no damn good. I now write off any pol who uses that term. I mean if all these ideas are so obvious to everyone, how come we're not using them already? Hm?
