Illegal immigration: Close the border and deport the illegal aliens.
There it is.
Thats all six reasons rolled into one. - Nobody is listening.
[shrugs] I am quite sure
four (or eight!) McCain years
will scare the splitters
who’d rather stay on the plantation.
than admit the world doesn’t
revolve around them.
A better question is can the Democrats capitalize by moving to the center and embracing soldiers, small businessmen, hunters, and last, but not least, Christians? A: probably not. So they will fail as well and the pendulum will bounce back.
Uh ... that's what they've been doing to get into this mess! Cooking up new ideas? crafting attractive agendas? How about trying that which works - CONSERVATISM! the point of which is that we _already_ know the answers, and problems stem from deviating from them.
The RNC and Republicans in Congress could save the party by stopping sodomizing the Conservative base and appeasing the liberals at every turn.
Actually McGore announced today that the border problem has been solved.
No, he didn't. Read his speech again.
So, is this real bad? maybe not. Four years of liberal trash in power will take this country down a path most people cannot begin to comprehend and by then they might just wake up and put real Conservatives back in power. We would have the added benefit that by then the pubbies would have cleaned house, in spades!
“and by then they might just wake up and put real Conservatives back in power.”
And hopefully those candidates will be able and willing to articulate a strong, intelligent conservative message. Not just “we suck less, vote for us.”
It's annoying, childish, and likely to go unread.
I've been here two years longer than you -- so what?
Along these lines, the Pubbies need to figure out why Ron Paul took such a big bite out of the voting and why his new book is at the top of the charts. Having discerned the truth they should embrace it.
One piece is absolutely missing and has to be face up to. First, tear the administration to bits for not telling true statistics on inflation. We all know what has happened to food and energy and derivative products, even if statistically massaged Commmerce statistics try to hide the truth. Second excoriate Bernanke and Paulson for deliberately seeking hyperinflation as a way to bail out Wall Street. The health of New York investment bankers is not identical to life liberty pursuit of happiness and protection of private property in the US (excluding NYC and DC). The subprime mortgage mess as part of the overall financial mess leaves an awfully big lump under the rug. Standing around claiming innocence while looking guilty is not a solution.
I have just one suggestion: Stop listening to The Washington Post, The New York Times, and their spin-off, Politico.com. Start listening to the folks back home.
Amen!
I don’t know that I can come up with six ideas, but here’s a few...
1) On the war: Have the guts to tell the American people “Grow up!” We’ve been at war with Islamofascism since before Jimmy Carter left Plains to pretend to be President. Whining and bitching about the war won’t end it. It ends when we kill the bastards who started it or they kill us. There’s no in-between. You may not like the way George Bush has run the war, but at least he had the balls to actually do something about it. Can you say the same thing about any Democrat who’s not named “Lieberman”?
2) On “Family values”: Stop carping about them! The GOP spends way too much time worrying about who’s schtupping whom and in what position. We wind up sounding like a bunch of Church Ladies and get little done to actually promote the values we claim to support. Government can’t promote family values. The best you can hope for is that it does as little damage as possible. Don’t whine about Britney Spears flashing her goods outside a nightclub. Instead, point out that she and her fans are overtaxed and that this harms all families. Then point out that the Dems think that we’re all undertaxed.
3) On man-made global warming: This is a tough one since most of our idiot neighbors buy into this myth. But whatever we do, McCain’s stupid carbon tax crap isn’t the answer! Killing off the American economy won’t change the Earth’s surface temperature by a single milliKelvin. Instead, hijack some of the Greenies’ ideas and promote them from a national security angle. Reducing fossil fuel use won’t affect global temperatures, but it will de-fund our enemies. (Giving the Saudis money that they, in turn, give to Al Qaeda is pretty stupid.) If it turns out to benefit the environment, so much the better. But point out that the Democrats’ only plans end with the US economy in the crapper.
I can probably come up with more; so can others here. But in any case, it’s a sure bet that the Stupid Party won’t listen.
Mark.
How big a bite was that?
Second excoriate Bernanke and Paulson for deliberately seeking hyperinflation as a way to bail out Wall Street.
Just look what they did to M1!!!
