"If we must have an enemy at the head of Government, let it be one whom we can oppose, and for whom we are not responsible, who will not involve our party in the disgrace of his foolish and bad measures." - Alexander Hamilton

 

"We don't intend to turn the Republican Party over to the traitors in the battle just ended. We will have no more of those candidates who are pledged to the same goals as our opposition and who seek our support. Turning the Party over to the so-called moderates wouldn’t make any sense at all." -- President Ronald Reagan

 

"A thing moderately good is not so good as it ought to be. Moderation in temper is always a virtue; but moderation in principle is always a vice." - Thomas Paine 1792

 

"It does not take a majority to prevail, but rather an irate, tireless minority, keen on setting brushfires of freedom in the minds of men." - Samuel Adams

 

"If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen." - Samuel Adams

We ought to be asking, where is God?

And the astounding truth is, He hasn’t been invited. No room at the inn. So we can’t complain.

Yes, just where are those highly praised GOP governors on this important day? Speak out now; if not now when?

This is also a most interesting time for Senator Warren to make her stand against Hillary.

You will look in vain while not inviting the Lord amongst us.

Cruz not only carry a tune, he knows the music.

He knows it well enough to be able to build on a riff.

Her Senate speech yesterday might still be available on CSPAN. It's real good and unambiguous. She spells out the excesses of big banking, in particular Citibank. She now owns this very important issue, I suspect.

It is a dance of quiet desperation. The Democrats having wrecked morale, the GOP has lost any vision beyond directing emoluments to its own in the class war. “Money is the answer to everything!” as the Preacher cynically states in Ecclesiastes about a godless world.

Accept or reject continues to be the choice set forth by the Lord. He can be your Lord unto blessing or damnation... your choice and you cannot quibble your way out of that responsibility.

I agree. Hillary’s tactic of laying low and “protecting the lead” appears, at least to me, to be enabling a Warren surge into the lead for the 2016 nomination. Hillary wants to have it both ways—continue to make huge sums of money now doing cookie-cutter speeches but still snag the 2016 nomination at essentially the last minute. It’s not working for Hillary.
