The battle against debt was lost earlier at the battle against spending increases.

Giving Leadership a pass on losing that battle is absurd.

The guy started a thesis and then invented conjectures to support his thesis, Climate Changist style.

The GOPe are completely moronic. They are not steering anything right, and certainly not Obama who has become more and more brazen because of their inaction in their reaching accross the aisle.

How about reaching out to the American people for a change? To people voting liberal? instead of to the Democratic party.

This is the difference between Reagan and the stupid Bushes “me to reagans.”

Reagan talked to people and made the case to them and compromised with them, not with another corrupt party funded by terrorist groups like Hillary in Ben Gahzi.

Thus the result is they reach not to democrat voters and they crap on conservatives. What a strategy for total party implosion!

That seems like a long, long way to go just to tell us TEA Party types to STFU.

Indeed.whores to the feds. It is like it is not permissible now for the Tparty to campaign Reagan style reaching out to the people who voted left and right. Instead we do party to party and feds compromises.

Wow. Steering to oligarchic corruption is more the word.

So now we cannot campaign and bypass their Pc “Common Core” approach pf asking Democrats, lawyers and other party hacks permissions first in order to talk to each other as a people.

Whoever came up with that idea is obviously a traitor abandoning custodies, nay, forbidding America from self custody and determination.

IS THE TEA PARTY’S DREAM AN ILLUSION? (Patrick J. Buchanan)

Is Pat a RINO too? As a simple analysis, it's not that hard. Do you want the debt downgraded? That's different from the question of wheher McConnell and Boehner should be replaced.

Cooke admitted in 1996 at the GOP convention in San Diego for Bob Dole that he was a mercenary.

He’s GOPe because they pay his bills and keep his girth about the size of Jabba the Hutt.

Don’t give him even a smidgen of your time.

Truth is, the debt should have been downgraded long ago when the same Rinos got us there by hiding the situation.

let Democrats and only the Feds and Democrats bear the responsability for it. Any other way is political suicide, carrying their waters, getting the blame, while they get the power and e excuses.

If Pat is right, they only thing left that we can control is to be prepared.
The SHTF is coming. Can’t control what these DC morons do, but can
stock up on the things I need for food and protection.

The reality is big government has been the norm since our country
was founded. Only a few years here and there has the country turned
to conservative governance.

Boner and McConnell are indeed the Vichy republicans...
and with a good amount of other elected republicans supporting them.. they are entrenched..

I wish there was another way other than Civil War...
but alas there is NOT... not even succession.. or Mark Levin’s way..

All that................ and you KNOW Obama is lusting for an excuse for Martial Law..
Cloward-Piven DEMANDS IT... is geared for it.. pressures for it..

And Yet.. many still think an honest election is even POSSIBLE..
In a few places it is.. BUT very few.. even fewer in 2014 or 2016..

I think... MOST still don’t GIT IT!...
Even though the progressives openly said it to your face, and mean it..
“Fundamental Transformation of America...”......
I wouldn’t have believed it.. but am watching it happen daily..

And all people do is bitch... of course the TSHTF eventually..
The wise will prepare for it NOW...

Cloward-Piven is deadly serious and is happening like clockwork.. with barely a whimper..

Indeed, the debt will be downgraded whatever they do.

These nitwits do not see that Obama will not yield from making America into another irrelevant banana member of the UN.

The world is not going to rely on us, period, thus will not buy our debt, period. There is zero substance return in what we do when we give freebies abroad instead of maintaining our integrity. It is a ponzy scheme.
