Here it is from your own pen(s):

Freepers can start and keep the Constitutional Restoration ball rolling by taking a series of small logical steps. Each step forward, makes it possible to take the next step. It is the Reagan Wing of the Republican Party that will defeat left-leaning Republicans and Democrats. It is the defeat of these two groups that will make it possible for conservatives to restore the Constitution. By targeting left-leaning Republicans and far-left Democrats, both parties will shift progressively to the right without having to defeat large numbers of Democrats and without having to cater to moderates.

It is the unique method of funding political campaigns that makes recruiting of our Reagan Wing candidates possible. Rush Limbaugh is the one person ideally positioned to tap two different sources of funding that are capable of providing at least $600 million in every Congressional election cycle to fund the campaigns of our Reagan Wing candidates freeing them completely from the onerous task of campaign fund raising. While there is nothing that would preclude others from being able to tap these or other funding sources, it is difficult to envision that anybody can do so as easily as Rush. Equally important to our Reagan Wing candidates there is nobody that can provide anything comparable to Rush's three hours of air time every day, his political expertise and analysis, his sense of humor, or his conservative rightness that has attracted the allegiance and loyalties of his 22 million listeners. In short, the single step of recruiting Rush Limbaugh to this effort virtually guarantees its success. That might not be true for any other conservative leader or leaders.

The first step is making either Rush or David Limbaugh aware of this effort. Contacting celebrities is difficult. At least five years of unsuccessful private attempts have already gone into this effort. Since Rush, David and people close to Rush occasionally peruse the pages of FreeRepublic, sustained and repeated exposure of this effort on FreeRepublic could attract Rush's attention through his or related parties' screening of the FreeRepublic.com website Freepers can actively email other conservative leaders or icons about the existence of this effort and ask them to not only make Rush aware, but also ask them to help convince Rush that this is the right thing to do.

There it is in black and white. You want Rush Limbaugh to get people to send in 600 million dollars, and you want FReepers to talk him into it.

You want to use FReepers to advance your idea to elect TRUE conservatives instead of RINOs, and you think you need hundreds of millions of dollars and Rush Limbaugh to do it.

Whoever you all are, you're charlatans.

Slow down Judith Anne. You can read, but you jump to your own preconceived conclusions instead of actually thinking through the implications of what you have read. Rather than leaping to conclusions, stop and take one step at a time, think it through and try to consider the ramifications of each step. How would it effect politicians in office? How would it modify their next campaign? How would it effect voters? What will be the ultimate effect on the behavior of government by changing how politicians think and react to the last election cycle? Take them one at a time:

Focus on the goal- restoring the Constitution. Isn't that FreeRepublic's mission?

If you want to change the law, you have to elect lawmakers that will pass the kind of laws you want.

It is a rare election when incumbents don't win re-election more than 90% of the time. With the passage of Campaign Finance Reform, affectionately called the "Incumbent Protection Act" by Rush, the number winning re-election has been increasing and is now nearing 97-98%. If ending socialism and other unconstitutional practices is the goal, then somebody will have to find a better way to change the lawmakers, won't they?

There are almost 80 times as many Americans now as there were in 1789. Have you never wondered why Ronald Reagan is the only political figure in almost 150 years to have the stature of an Abraham Lincoln or the Founders? Look at the scientists, engineers and patriots in our armed forces. Where are the political equivalents of the Founders and Ronald Reagan? Why do these people not come forward to serve?
Could the answer be found by looking here?

One other thing about our being charlatans or frauds in regard to soliciting the $600 million. If you had bothered to read and understand what is there, you would note that one of our group has offered to give Rush an idea that could provide $200 million annually that could be used to fund our Reagan Wing candidates. Alternativelly, the business based on that idea could be sold and the billion or so raised from the sale could be used for funding Reagan Wing candidates. Not one of us has or is going to ask you for a dime. We believe, however, that once Rush and his listeners recognize the potential of the Reagan Wing, that money will begin to flow spontaneously to the Reagan Wing from Rush's audience and other conservatives who recognize the importance and the potential of this project.

Many elections have been won with fifteen second sound bytes. "It's the economy, stupid," comes quickly to mind. Restoring the Constitution is going to take more than fifteen second sound bytes. The record of failures over the last seventy years is a testament to the fact that it is going to take a carefully reasoned logical effort to defeat the socialists. I don't for a minute think Judith Anne is stupid, but it is time to put irresponsible, thoughtless remarks aside and start focusing on the task of completing FreeRepublic's mission.

Will you take The Pledge?
