An entire nation votes, tens of millions of Americans come out to their local polls to tell Washington it is going in the wrong direction on amnesty and Obama Care, and endless deficits, and cowardice in the face of terrorism…and what do the Republicans leaders do?
They give the president everything he could ask for, while turning on one of the few in the Republican ranks that understands we are fighting for the very life of the nation.
The Republican Party simply is not up to the task of changing the course of this nation. Too many in the Republican ranks, from Congressman Peter King (R), Long Island, to Senator John Cornyn from Texas just don’t have the same vision for America as their constituents
The list of RINO’s is almost endless. The Republican Party is divided right down the middle. And whenever this has happened previously, the conservatives have had to accept the moderate as the lesser of two evils.
This strategy gave us two Bush’s, McCain, and Romney. It gave us a Bush promising no new taxes, to his son telling us we had to accept government intervention in the form of massive bailouts to save capitalism!
The Republican Party has not offered a real alternative since Ronald Reagan, and even he compromised to give us amnesty and the Department of Education!
We, the grass roots did our job. We did it even when Washington insiders worked the Democrats to rob us of a victory in Mississippi. We did it, even when we had to accept traitorous – compromising – pathetic Senators like Lindsey Graham and Mitch McConnell. And we did it, even when we knew John Boehner would remain Speaker of the House.
So one has to ask, is it time for a new political party? Is it time for an America First Party that has litmus tests not only for candidates, but for donors.
We may have to accept a minority status for awhile, leave a significantly weakened GOP to be creamed by the Democrats…with a longer goal of saving and restoring our republic. We may have to step away from this present malaise, and turn to God and accept happily that He is in control, not us.
Some may think we will see a difference when the new Congress is sworn in. But to be honest, I doubt that. I don’t expect to see men who have been complicit in the betrayal of this nation, in its bankruptcy, in its turn from God to a national morality that is absent any connection to the Bible and the founding values of this nation.
Republican governors are now moving to accept Obama Care through expanding their states Medicaid programs. The fight to reject amnesty seems all but over.
The Republican Party is as invested in the present direction of America as the Democrats. It has no counter revolutionary spirit, it has no open commitment to Christ, and it certainly has no inspiration to move towards eliminating the Department of Education, or any of the other unconstitutional bureaucracies and agencies which have been create since the Wilson Administration.
Only radical action by the grass roots, only action which insures Democrat victory at the polls can provide sufficient pressure to reverse course. Anything less will only marginally slow the pace towards socialism, globalism, an end to liberty, and the inevitable attack on Christianity, and Christians.
The insiders of the GOP laugh at us. They get us to carry the water on election day, and the very next morning do all they can to intimidate the elected officials, and convene an insiders cabal to create an agenda corrupt with the interests of those inside the beltway.
Only a new political party, one that guards jealously its principles and values, and rejects the ideas of diversity and the big tent can bring moral, spiritual, economic and political revival to what remains of the United States. It’s time for conservatives to say so long to the GOP. It’s time to do it now, today. It’s time to bring a new reality into the American body politic; and that new reality needs to be clear…we are done playing by your rules, living by your fears. We are ready to start anew, and we will not compromise, we will not be there for the RINO’s, or the moderates. It’s time.
‘...We, the grass roots did our job...”
No, we have not done our job. Otherwise things would be different.

Rand Paul On Shutdown: "Even Though It Appeared I Was Participating In It, It Was A Dumb Idea"I said throughout the whole battle that shutting down the government was a dumb idea. Even though it did appear as if I was participating in it, I said it was a dumb idea. And the reason I voted for it, though, is that it's a conundrum. Here's the conundrum. We have a $17 trillion debt and people at home tell me you can't give the president a blank check. We just can't keep raising the debt ceiling without conditions. So unconditionally raising the debt ceiling, nobody at home wants me to vote for that and I can't vote for that. But the conundrum is if I don't we do approach these deadlines. So there is an impasse. In 2011, though, we had this impasse and the president did negotiate. We got the sequester. If we were to extend the sequester from discretionary spending to all the entitlements we would actually fix our problem within a few years.[Posted on 11/19/2013 12:16:51 PM by Third Person]
Rand Paul: Time for GOP to soften war stance...by softening its edge on some volatile social issues and altering its image as the party always seemingly "eager to go to war... We do need to expand the party and grow the party and that does mean that we don't always all agree on every issue" ... the party needs to become more welcoming to individuals who disagree with basic Republican doctrine on emotional social issues such as gay marriage... "We're going to have to be a little hands off on some of these issues ... and get people into the party," Paul said.[Posted on 01/31/2013 5:08:50 PM PST by xzins]
Rand Paul's immigration speech...The Republican Party must embrace more legal immigration.[Posted on 03/19/2013 7:04:07 AM PDT by Perdogg]
Unfortunately, like many of the major debates in Washington, immigration has become a stalemate-where both sides are imprisoned by their own rhetoric or attachment to sacred cows that prevent the possibility of a balanced solution.
Immigration Reform will not occur until Conservative Republicans, like myself, become part of the solution. I am here today to begin that conversation.
Let's start that conversation by acknowledging we aren't going to deport 12 million illegal immigrants.
If you wish to work, if you wish to live and work in America, then we will find a place for you...
This is where prudence, compassion and thrift all point us toward the same goal: bringing these workers out of the shadows and into being taxpaying members of society.
Imagine 12 million people who are already here coming out of the shadows to become new taxpayers.12 million more people assimilating into society. 12 million more people being productive contributors.
Rand Paul calls on conservatives to embrace immigration reformLatinos, should be a natural constituency for the party, Paul argued, but "Republicans have pushed them away with harsh rhetoric over immigration." ...he would create a bipartisan panel to determine how many visas should be granted for workers already in the United States and those who might follow... [and the buried lead] "Imagine 12 million people who are already here coming out of the shadows to become new taxpayers...[Posted on 04/21/2013 1:52:42 PM PDT by SoConPubbie]

Rand Slams Congress for Funding Egypt's Generals: 'How Does Your Conscience Feel Now?'Sen. Rand Paul is hammering his fellow senators for keeping billions in financial aid flowing to Egypt's military -- even as Cairo's security forces massacre anti-government activists.

FREEPED !
If it weren’t for elected Conservative Republicans all the Republicans in the house/senate would be echoing Pelosi talking points. Darn scary!
For 20 years the naysayers have been saying that a 3rd party is not viable. Had we started a REAL 3rd party then, we’d be a force to contend with today. All it takes is for one broadcaster or journalist to say that it is suicide and everybody abandons the idea. For 20 years, and really longer, we’ve been complaining about the RINOs. We won 2 major elections recently with tea party support. It’s about time we abandoned the republican party and started our own. I’m tired of being kicked in the teeth and at my age, there is not a lot of time to help turn this around. That is the real rub. By the time everybody decides to come on board, many of us will no longer be able to get out and vote. If it were not for the elderly Obama would not need the illegals’ votes. What is everybody’s else’s excuse, anyway?
FReeped.

“The list of RINO’s is almost endless. The Republican Party is divided right down the middle. And whenever this has happened previously, the conservatives have had to accept the moderate as the lesser of two evils”.
The beatings will continue until moral improves.
I have always thought we were pretty savvy people but just DAMN! When is it going to dawn on folks that we are being played big time? Its all a game...good cop bad cop, clinton/Bush-Bush/clinton. Obama/clinton, clinton/clinton, lesser of two evils- and when someone outside the hand picked chosen one comes along the most wise on high talking heads tell us he has no chance, not a front runner, don’t waste your vote.
Oh, I think that tge there will be a third party candidate, alright. I think that it will be Rand Paul.
What does Cruz think of the idea?
<>No, we have not done our job . . .<>
What should we do?
Cruz-Carson, with Palin as Secretary of Energy and Rand Paul as head of Health & Human Services or whatever they are calling these posts now. Eliminate Department of Education and destroy the IRS and the EPA.
“Only a new political party, one that guards jealously its principles and values, and rejects the ideas of diversity and the big tent can bring moral, spiritual, economic and political revival to what remains of the United States. It’s time for conservatives to say so long to the GOP. It’s time to do it now, today.”
I agree to saying goodbye to the GOP. But a third party wouldn’t get the financial backing it needs. Nor are the sheeple able to understand that they are voting for fascism.
Civil war, revolution, that’s our only hope.
