"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

I went to that link you posted and while Breibart created their title to their editorial “Chamber of Commerce to Spend $50 Million to Crush Tea Party.”

In that editorial the actual quote they cite from Chamber has a different tone to it :

Our No. 1 focus is to make sure, when it comes to the Senate, that we have no loser candidates,” said U.S. Chamber of Commerce top political strategist Scott Reed. “That will be our mantra: No fools on our ticket.”

Karl Rove, who has his fingers in Texas politics, is reloading against the Tea Party on the national level as well.

Sean Hannity's good friend, "The Architect"? Say it ain't so! < / sarcasm off >

The statist crony rentseekers are out in force to protect Cornyn. That should tell you all you need to know about what Cornyn will do if re-elected (cf. also McCain, Hatch).

John Cornyn claims to be the 2nd most conservative member of the Senate.
Yet, as Chairman of the National Republican Senatorial Committee he
hand-selected these "Republican" candidates:
  • Arlen Specter - Democrat
  • Charlie Crist - Democrat
  • Lincoln Chafee - Democrat
  • Lisa Murkowski - Independent
Also, when he had a chance to stop ObamaCare by supporting Ted Cruz' filibuster
he FAILED
and hid behind a meaningless vote later.

Support Dwayne Stovall to oust John Cornyn in TX

The gopers have no idea what's coming at them.

Even if they win the primary, they'll lose in the general and all their big money pals will have wasted their money.

and then the big money boys will be at the mercy of the classwarriors that hate their stinkin' guts.

About the only thing we accomplished in this last generation of a conservative nature is to lower their taxes and look what happens. Backstabbers. Until the border is secure and we hqave a fair hearing from the corporate media no more tax cuts for corporations or the rich in fact until we have accomplished that we should collude with the Dem’s and hold them responsibile for raising their taxes. After all that is what the GOP establishement does(collude with the donks againt us).

Want to make a difference ? Start your own vocal group Be your own precinct captain The piece below is designed to be printed up and passed around your precinct and your friends and neighbors as a half sheet flyer. On the face (REVERSE SIDE)or below the slogan you can put the name of the candidate you favor and the election dates...EXCELLENT FOR SLIPPING UNDER WINDSHIELD WIPERS ON CARS PARKED IN KEY PARKING LOTS CHURCHES, RALLY SITES....

Did you know the Democrat party voted to remove any reference to God at their 2012 national convention ? And when they decided it was a mistake and unpolitical they rammed the change to put it back in like they voted for Obamacare.But delegates booed the decision. The Democrat is not the party of JFK or even FDR. It’s a queer marriage between socialists and “progressives” They are now Demo-Coms.

DEMO-COMS ARE
GOD DENIERS AND PREDACIOUS LIARS
PREACH REDISTRIBUTE
YOUR WEALTH INCITERS/
FIRST YOUR MONEY THEN YOUR GUNS
ISSUING DECREES OF MANY COME
DEMAND SURRENDERING CHOICES ONE BY ONE
INTO REGIMENTATION YOU MUST RUN
AND NOW THEIR ROBOT YOU’VE BECOME

It’s time to get a government run by a lying Godless political party OUT
OUT of Our faces Our religions
Our pocketbooks and Our Lives

"Some of Texas’ biggest business trade groups are moving to counter tea party and anti-government forces that have dominated recent Republican primaries."

I think that right there is proof enough that the Republican Party no longer represents the will of the American People. It's just another form of fascism. The Democrats are aligned with their special interests taking their money to create policy, the Republican's are doing the same thing.

Go look up the word "fascism." We're living under it -- it no longer matters which party is in power.

It's time to remind these bastards in D.C. that they work for us -- not the other way around!

It's time to strike fear in their hearts.

(According to a report in the Dallas Morning News)

Austin has become a liberal bastion...Governor Perry has done much to lure business's to his state however, many have brought their liberal ways, Austin is one of the centers of those values, problems, and propaganda.

While I'm no fan of Steve LaTourette, Karl Rove, and their cronies, this was a poorly written article. It reads like one of those idiot emails I get asking me for money.

What races are being targeted? They aren't targeting Cruz, despite what they suggest. Why? Because Cruz just got elected in 2012. He's not up until 2018.

I think they are targeting the Stockman vs Cornyn race.

Notice how there is no real information cited in either article concerning the Texas Future Business Alliance. No website outlining who is involved as far as I can find. Pretty shady. Information on their spokesman, Davis Polyanski, can be found here:

David Polyanski

Another big business crony gun for hire cloaked behind the usual patriotic euphemisms.

As I’ve said before — I am ready to bolt from being a registered Republican. First of all, I live in NYC where the GOP is barely existent. The GOP establishment are a bunch of whores. OK you have good guys out there in Congress like Cruz, Issa and Rand Paul but if anything gets going —Tea party and constitutional libertarian minded folks are going to have to get seriously radical. The Libertarian Party per se can be a little freaky. I enjoy various magazines and websites such as Cato and Reason but I am not ready to join the Libertarian Party. Any answers?
