Conservatives Must Step Up to the Plate

Jerry McConnell

I just read a blog, written by Eric Florack of PajamasMedia.com, in which he details a lot of the mixed feelings on the Republican Party that surfaced at the CPAC conference held last weekend.

[...]I believe and understand as they do that conservatism is just about everything a socialist, liberal Democrat is not, such as: Pro-life; Pro-freedom; Pro-USA; Pro-Christian; Pro-Israel; Pro-family; Pro-traditional marriage; Pro-free market capitalism; Pro-war-on-terror and war on Islamofascism and terror in the Middle East and everywhere; Pro-military and Pro providing the necessary equipment to monitor our known enemies to provide protection for our citizens, even the liberals who oppose such equipment. Also for smaller governments; For less taxes; Against socialism; Against state-owned or state-run media or banks and businesses; Against asinine state controls on our legal gun ownership; Against the so-called “progressive”, left-wing school of liberalism.

Someone in authority in one of the many fine conservative organizations has got to take the lead role to get a sense of which direction the country needs to be led. As Nike says, “Just do it!” Get a survey crafted and spread the word that it will not only be a nation-wide saturation of Republican registrants but people in other political parties who would like to be considered. Costs may be a factor that could cause hesitation, but if everyone who participated in the survey would be willing to send just a dollar or two to the polling group, I’m sure it would pay all costs involved.

Git ‘er done.
