I think its appropriate to say the country is being lost anyway because of the Uniparty policies now emerging regarding taxes, spending, the debt ceiling and so on.

More and more austerity measures will be imposed involving cuts in pensions and benefits along with tax increases by both major parties in the coming years at the federal, state and local levels.

They have no intention (including the Republicans) of tearing down the welfare state structure that has been created in the past 100 years up to and including Obamacare etc.

The major parties will be band aiding an unsustainable system of overpriced government that is collapsing under the weight of debt.

I want a conservative policy that reverses what has happened with no new taxes and no debt increases and that most likely means a third party in the short or long term, whenever that comes along.

I hear you.

But it took time to get here and we’ll have to get it back (look around the world - conservatism is swinging back - it is here too). We need to practice some patience - fight the tendency to want it all yesterday - along with short attention spans.

Instead of accepting division in the face of being overrun, we must combine together to fight back the worst (sorting out the bad apples as we can).

Conservatism is on the rise.
