And Reagan was about 72 I think when he finally won the presidency. We need a real charismatic conservative. No more milk toast republicans!
for whatever reasons, our nation has left behind the iron laws of human nature upon which was built the greatest engine of prosperity this poor, shivering, starving human race has ever seen.
We Hate the Liberals for their notions of Utopianism but ignore our own aspirations to do the same thing. As a conservative I always build on Human nature, but as a human, I often find that God has good belly laugh when I suppose I know better.
Sheriff Joe is staying put. You know that.
Way to go, Joe!
Congratulations Joe!. I stand in front of, beside and behind Joe. BTTT!
Sheriff Joe winning and Romney losing just convinces me more that Romney votes were stolen. Each battleground state had about 2 counties they kept saying “Romney has to win”. He didn’t win them. I think it was rigged.
Hey, another victory Tues goes to Deb Fischer of Nebraska beating Bob Kerry (Harry Reid’s pet) by 16 pts. It makes losing Allen West and Mia Love’s defeat in Utah a little less painful.
I love Sheriff Joe. With the Justice Dept. coming after him he proves that it’s impossible to intimidate him or his constituents.
It seems that this election changed nothing, for good or for bad. All the incumbents seems to keep their seats, with a few sad exceptions.
Still, enormously glad that the good Sheriff won.
Now we are obligated to give the illegals free healthcare and welfare, so we more of them coming for the freebies. Before, most of them came to work and have opportunity to better themselves.
Another bit of good news...
Here in Virginia (sorry we didn’t deliver on Tuesday), we passed a provision that stipulates narrow requirements for eminent domain. What happened in the Kelo case will not happen here.
I find it interesting that Reagan signed amnesty into law two days after the 1986 election, so he never faced voters on the issue.
I just came upon this article , which maybe something to ponder.
Amnesty for Illegals Doesn’t Win Hispanic Votes
Here's a couple of excerpts:
The largest amnesty in history was the 1986 amnesty, which legalized 3 million illegal aliens, most of whom were Hispanic. The first presidential election in which they were eligible to vote was in 1996. The Republican candidate that year was Bob Dole — the man who had been majority leader in the Senate in 1986 and helped pass the amnesty. The chief author of that amnesty was also a Republican, Sen. Alan Simpson. And that amnesty was signed into law by another Republican — President Reagan. So, you would think there was resounding Hispanic support and gratitude for the Republican candidate in 1996. Wrong. Only 21 percent of Hispanics voted for the Republican.In this election, 74 percent of the voters were white, 13 percent were black, 9 percent Hispanic, 2 percent Asian, etc. To put it bluntly, given such a vast majority of white voters, you have to wonder why ethnic pandering would be needed at all for Republicans to win elections. What the Republicans need is a return to the conservative values that brought many victories in the past. Republicans could once again attract a resounding majority consisting of white voters and self-reliant nonwhites by loudly propounding economic and social policies that favor middle-class financial security and prosperity. But supporting liberal immigration policies is not the way. There is simply no evidence that liberal immigration policies ever made middle-class voters feel secure and prosperous.
Rush discussed this issue today.
They vote Dem for the freebies.
God bless Sheriff Joe! Too bad he supported hispanderer Perry during the primary.
