Disappointing.

Why don’t they hold their endorsements and just go to the convention and make the decision there?

During the 2010 interim elections..the Tea Party folks and grassroots voters came out enmasse to support conservative candidates..this go round the gop establishment, news media and super pacs were prepared to ensure the "chosen one" is elected. Mega millions have been spent to bring down Newt yet he is still IN this race. I will fight to the damn end for the one last true conservative standing.

“I think Mitt Romney has a set of economic policies that can put Americans back to work and, frankly, contrast sharply with the failed economic policies of President Obama.”

Some of Romney's campaign speeches and some items on his campaign web site provide evidence for that belief. The problem is that I don't for a moment believe anything conservative that Mitt's writers use to get our votes. Mitt's actions over the last couple decades provide proof that he doesn't mean what he says unless it's pro-abortion, pro-homosexuality, pro-tax, and anti-business. I'd say Mitt's 50-50 to be our president, and in the event that I'm wrong and he turns out not to be a far-left big-government socialist, I'll happily vote for his re-election, but I cannot and will not vote for him this year. [Note: in any case, Mitt will not carry my state without an unexpected landslide.]

No surprise here.

But I am wondering if the Tea Party junior members of Congress are going to every trust again this establishment toad.

Boehner needs to go or be removed as Speaker.

Like poor Mr. Luebner in the old SNL skits, Boehner was born without a spine.

I got this in an email today and would love to share it with all of you..It seems we need a new bunch in congress and senate..If Boehner has to follow the pack and vote for the other Obama then we really need to look all over to replace them in Congress..Enjoy!!!

MEET THE NEW GOVERNOR OF MAINE

In case you haven’t heard about this guy before, his name will stick in your mind!
The new Maine Governor, Paul LePage is making New Jersey ‘s Chris Christie look like an enabler. He isn't afraid to say what he thinks. Judging by the comments, every time he opens his mouth, his popularity goes up.

He brought down the house at his inauguration when he shook his fist toward the media box and said, “You're on notice! I've inherited a financially-troubled State to run. Observe...cover what we do...but don't whine if I don’t waste time responding to your every whim just for your amusement.”

During his campaign for Governor, he was talking to commercial fishermen who are struggling because of federal fisheries rules. They complained that 0bama brought his family to Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park for a long Labor Day holiday and found time to meet with union leaders, but wouldn’t talk to the fishermen. LePage replied, “I'd tell him to go to hell and get out of my State.” The Lame Stream Media crucified LePage, but he jumped 6 points in the pre-election poll.

The Martin Luther King incident was a political sandbag which brought him National exposure. The lame stream media crucified him, but word on the street is very positive. The NAACP specifically asked LePage to spend MLK Day visiting black inmates at the Maine State Prison. He told them that he would meet with ALL inmates, regardless of race, if he were to visit the prison. The NAACP balked and then put out a news release claiming falsely that he refused to participate in any MLK events. He read it in the paper for the first time the next morning while being driven to an event and went ballistic because none of the reporters had called him for comment before running the NAACP release.

He arrived at that event and said in front of a TV camera, “If they want to play the race card on me they can kiss my ass”, and he reminded them that he has an adopted black son from Jamaica and that he attended the local MLK Breakfast every year that he was mayor of Waterville.
(He started his morning there on MLK Day.)
He then stated that there’s a right way and a wrong way to meet with the Governor, and he put all special interests on notice that press releases, media leaks, and all demonstrations would prove to be the wrong way. He said any other group which acted like the NAACP could expect to be at the bottom of the Governor’s priority list!

He then did the following, and judging from local radio talk show callers, his popularity increased even more: The State employees union complained because he waited until 3 PM before closing State offices and facilities and sending non-emergency personnel home during the last blizzard. The prior Governor would often close offices for the day with just a forecast before the first flakes. (Each time the State closes for snow, it costs the taxpayers about $1 million in wages for no work in return.)
LePage was CEO of the Marden’s chain of discount family bargain retail stores before election as governor. He noted that State employees getting off work early could still find lots of retail stores open to shop. So, he put the State employees on notice by announcing: “If Marden’s is open, Maine is open!”
He told State employees: “We live in Maine in the winter, for heaven's sake, and should know how to drive in it. Otherwise, apply for a State job in Florida !”
Governor LePage symbolizes what America needs; Refreshing politicians who aren’t self-serving and who exhibit common sense. Sounds like someone we could use running this country!!

THE LAW IS THE LAW!
So “IF” the US government determines that it is against the law for the words “under God” to be on our money, then, so be it.
And “IF” that same government decides that the “Ten Commandments”are not to be used in or on a government installation, then, so be it.
I say, “SO BE IT,” because I would like to be a law abiding US citizen.
I say, “SO BE IT,” because I would like to think that smarter people than I are in positions to make good decisions.
I would like to think that those people have the American public’s best interests at heart.

BUT... YOU KNOW WHAT ELSE I’D LIKE?
Since we can’t pray to God, can’t Trust in God and cannot post His Commandments in Government buildings, I don’t believe the Government (Federal, State and Local) and its employees should participate in the Easter and Christmas celebrations which honor the God that our government is eliminating from many facets of American life.
I’d like my mail delivered on Christmas, Good Friday, Thanksgiving and Easter. After all, it’s just another day.
I’d like the US Supreme Court to be in session on Christmas, Good Friday, Thanksgiving and Easter as well as Sundays. After all, it's just another day.
I’d like the Senate and the House of Representatives to not have to worry about getting home for the “Christmas Break.” After all it’s just another day.
I’m thinking that a lot of my taxpayer dollars could be saved, if all government offices and services would work on Christmas, Good Friday and Easter. It shouldn’t cost any overtime since those would be just like any other day of the week to a government that is trying to be .......”politically correct.”

In fact....I think that our government should work on Sundays (initially set aside for worshipping God..) because, after all, our government says that it should be just another day....
What do you all think??
If this idea gets to enough people, maybe our elected officials will stop giving in to the “minority opinions” and begin, once again, to represent the “majority” of ALL of the American people.
SO BE IT...........
Please Dear Lord,
Give us the help needed to keep you in our country!
‘Amen and Amen’
“I hope this makes its way around the USA several times over!!”
Let’s see that it does.

Does anyone here think that guys like Boehner will fight against President Romney’s liberal/progressive programs when he starts pushing them?

Romney will convince them that gay marriage and gays in the military is the “right” thing to do. That man-made global warming is a real threat and we must fight it. That more stimulus spending is necessary to avoid depression. That big companies are too big to fail and must be propped up by big government. That the debt limit must be increased again and again to avoid financial ruin. And he will continue borrowing for the same reason. He’ll convince them that it’s only right for the “wealthy” like him to pay more in taxes and that the government cannot afford to cut anyone’s taxes. That we must raise more “revenue” to cover the costs of government without having to borrow so much. He won’t even dream of making drastic cuts in government to reduce costs. Will admit that ObamaCare is unconstitutional and devastating to the economy, but will claim that RomneyCare (its functional equivalent) is not and will push hard through his national health care task force to impose it on all fifty states. He’ll renege on his campaign promise to make all illegals go home and come back after applying for citizenship and claim that “comprehensive immigration reform” (shamnesty) is the right thing to do. He will not lift a finger to get Roe v Wade overturned and will appoint “moderate” judges to ensure that it will not be. He will not lift a finger to defend Life & Liberty. Never has, never will.

President Romney will get his big government programs and his liberal/progressive policies through WITH GOP support where President Obama could not.
