Replace him with Obama. I’m being told here every day that there is no difference between them.

The Wong case as cites Lynch v Clarke as a precedent. The clause requiring jurisdiction has nothing to do with allegiance only obedience.

He is what he is.

This is why we must take congress.

We should have a daily global/universal US Congress race thread. A thread to consolodate all polling and senate race data.

We have too many Democrat senators and senatorial candidates running under the radar.

We need to give the impression we own the party since it’s pretty obvious that simply owning it isn’t enough ~


Ummm... we don’t own the Gop... The GOP-e owns it. They would prefer to keep us outside with our noses pressed against the glass.

Now, with that said. we SHOULD own the party. So lets take it over.

Well, as long as we’re smokin some dope here and wishing for things that won’t ever happen, I think I’ll take Cheryl Ladd on her Debut on Charlies Angels (black and white striped bikini on the beach)....hot, hot, hot. Alas, neither will happen - get over it.

The 14th Amendment has nothing whatsoever to do with the natural born citizen clause of the U.S. Constitution, despite all the fevered efforts to twist the law like a super pretzel to perpetrate a fraud. The natural born citizen clause was written for the specific purpose of restricting the Office of the President and Vice President only to those persons who never owed allegiance to any sovereign other than the Citizens of the United States. Rubio and Jindal were born with allegiance to foreign sovereigns, hence they cannot qualify as natural born citizens for the purposes intended by the authors of the Constitution. These improper attempts to re-write the Constitution and the intent of the authors of the Constitution without going through the Amendments of the Constitution are inherently subversive of Constitutional government and the rule of law protecting the Citizens of the United States against usurpment of their individual and collective sovereignty.

I agree with you about meticulously following house and senate races.

However, you are being way too lenient with your presidential candidate.

His liberal leanings will see him appointing “moderates” to the federal bench: district, appeals, and scotus. His choices of advisors and cabinet will influence is day-to-day decisions and executive orders.

You folks who say you’re going to lean on him and pound him had better be serious, or you actually are foreswearing everything that you say you believe in, but are forced to violate this one solitary time against your will.

Whiskey, I agree with you regarding Jindal, but I disagree regarding Rubio.

Rubio was born years after his parents arrived in the US. His mother was already a naturalized citizen by then, and his father had appeared before a magistrate.

Had they been operating under the immigration law of 1792 they would have been citizens. If we are to use the 18th century understanding of “natural born”, then we should use the 18th century law of naturalization.

Perry still had the big bucks. But he was not coming across well ~ probably the back surgery. Bachmann had done her job of paving the way for making Romney look better than he really was ~ or can be!

So, that leaves you three lifelong Conservative Republicans ~ and you named all three ~ which gives you Kudos and Heartache. We have a bunch here who don't know all that much about the candidates ~ so all I can say is it's worth studying up on every one of them now that we have the internet. A lot of folks running for President are congenital losers (at that job) and yet they serve who only stand and cr*p on real Conservatives (speaking of the candidates of course).

A real Conservative will have impeachment papers prepared by the evening of January 20, 2013.

No need, Sergeant Major, he's already Obama-Lite.

Now...if you could have the conservative of your choice...who would you pick?

I can appreciate the strategy, but it is moot. He KNOWs how deep his support is, just like he KNOWs how deep our disdain for Obama is. Rock and a hard place (for us) it’s called, and providing advertisement fodder to Obama from the Convention isn’t what I’d call smart.

While I don’t particularly like him, I’ll vote for him because I know what Obama is. I’m more concerned down-ticket now. The only thing that will control Romney if he is President is the Congress and Senate.

If we are lucky enough to get both, we need to start arresting some Obama administration people and putting them in prison. While we’re at it, start jailing some judges, too.

I hope Romney and co leave Walker alone. We need him right where he’s at. Future hopeful.

I don’t think Romney will pick a conservative anyway, so I wouldn’t worry about Walker. Plus, Scott criticized Mitt a few weeks ago, and Mittens don’t like that.

Your post is why I think his VP selection will be a moderate female like Whitman.
