When I read the headline I laughed out loud.
No question——nice deconstruction.
We better get out our copies of The Screwtape Letters to review how “The Father of Lies” operates here on earth.
” Ah..., no! People wanting a Conservative point of view to vote for have been cast adrift. They don’t bother registering as a Republican, because the party no more represents them than the Democrat party does.”
“
I say, starve the beast. Course that ignores the fact you’ve got simply brilliant political figures who are trying to convince you they are on your side, raising as much money for the party as they can. “
and now Palin is fundraising for the RNC, after we conservatives have been trying to starve them for years!
C.S.Lewis is one of my favories.
I keep paperback copies of Screwtape Letters (4 bucks at B&N) to hand out. The book explains so much....life’s events become more predictable.
Surely you jest. Republicans shar part of the blame for the mess we are in. It was a Republican that said that the Country had nothing to fear from an obama presidency.
But in the end, the total blame of the democrts and Republicans combined is less than one per cent.
It is the prople who are to blame. It is the people who demand that the government assume more contro; over their lives and money. How do they do it? Two ways. It begins with.”there oughta be a law”, or “the government should....” And they elect the people who say that they will make the law or provide the service.
They trade their God given freedom for governmental slavery.

I’ll bet SL is selling real well these days.
Is it too late to get my name on that byline?
Exactly correct IMO. I wouldn’t change a word of it.
I agree. And in accordance with the anti-Christ topic, I do believe this is indicative of end times. When a man this evil can pass for acceptable to enough people that he can actually gain the presidency, we’re exactly where you intimated we are.
Thanks Gilbo_3.
Diabolically funny and tragically true.
Oh man, I didn’t know that... har.
Good one.
No kidding. Good call...
Yep, that’s the brilliance I touched on.
Palin is so behind the curve. She’s too busy twittering to realize she’s today’s leading twit.
She wants so desperately to lead, she has stunted her own growth IMO. She needs to put her nose to the ground and pay attention to what real Conservatives have to say about her endorsement of McCain, and the Republican party at large.
It would be a real eye opener.
We’re not talking about malcontents here. We’re talking about people who have been Republicans their whole lives, just sick of what the party has become.
She hasn’t a clue concerning this.
I thought that was a great line too.
” Socialism is socialism whether you get there fast or a bit slower.
We all know the democrat party has been highjacked by the socialist progressives, but few will admit the republican party has been highjacked by the globalist.
Government of the lobbyist, by the lobbyist.
Socialist grow government to the point that all citizens rely on Uncle Sugar from cradle to grave.....right?
Globalist have succeeded in shipping millions of good paying manufacturing positions overseas to enrich themselves at the expense of our nation and her security.
No jobs or significantly lower paying position in the service sector shrinks the middle class, thus causing citizens to become more dependent on government....right?
The middle class, personal wealth, individual freedoms and our standard of living has been slowly evaporating under republican AND democrat leadership.
Socialism is socialism is socialism.
Vote Conservative all the time. Enough with the rino. “
Worthy of a repost, for those who missed it.
unfortunately, i believe the ex-Gov is only an establishment type politician as well...the repetitive actions speak much louder than her words...
” She’s also sleeping with the judge.”
LOL!!
10 points!
Of course the ballot box can no longer save us.
But since we are unwilling to even speak of the alternative, then all we are left with is threads like these...
