The Republican Party, the Party of Reagan has been nearly smothered and suffocated by the RINO-virus which has spread more rapidly than any swine flu pandemic, the GOP has been infected from the top down, and IF it is to avoid the fate of the Bull Moose Party, the principles of Reagan conservatism must be re-established, the fair weather collaborators and Quislings (that means YOU Juan McCain and your butt buddy Lindsey 'Goober' Graham!) MUST be driven out and banished and if they join up with the traitorous 'Rats, so be it. Force them to show their true colors.
The Republican National Committee is a major part of the problem. They are mentally entrenched in that go along to get along attitude and there is no point in trying to change or reform them. The entire RNC needs to be scrapped, new blood brought in, and start with a clean slate. Michael Steele should be the first one to go, he has been an abysmal failure as Chairman. Ken Blackwell of Ohio would have made a far better Chairman and might yet.
The RNC should be waging 100 percent, 24 hour a day, 7 day a week partisan warfare against the 0bamunist regime and their media lackeys. The spotlight should be kept continuously on Nasty Pelosi and her fascist behavior, ditto for that clown Steny Hoyer. The entire body of House Republicans should be doing everything possible to obstruct, delay, and shut down the Rat agenda and that means throwing everything including the damn kitchen sink at those traitors.
And they should USE that word TRAITOR, for what we see in the House (and the Senate for that matter) is *TREASON*, any piece of legislation which violates the Constitution, which infringes upon the rights of We The People, constitutes TREASON and the word should go out, to the treacherous Rats, to their 0bamunist fellow travelers, to the America-hating left, that TREASON will not be condoned nor tolerated, and we will fight tooth and nail to stop them by any means necessary.
We have witnessed over the past year a fascist regime of questionable legality taking over private businesses, dictating who will, and who will not be permitted to run those businesses, 0bamunist thugs literally attacking good and decent Americans exercising their right to oppose the governments proposed health care grab, the parallel with Germany of the 1930s cannot be denied by any thinking American.
If the Republican Party is to save America, they have to start by demonstrating that they are NOT going to be part of the business as usual garbage as they have been in the past. Otherwise they will seal their own political doom by forcing good conservative Republicans and Independents to form a Third Party. Ronald Reagan himself, a former Democrat said "I didn't leave the Democratic Party, the Democratic Party left me", and there is no shame in emulating the Gipper's wisdom, courage and principles.
The time for bipartisanship is over. I reiterate; NOW is the time for ruthless, cutthroat, PARTISAN POLITICAL WARFARE, with no holds barred, no prisoners taken, and it must be waged with utter savagery because the stakes could not possibly be higher.
The stakes are the restoration of our American Republic, or to watch it descend into a socialistic/Communist cesspool from which we may never emerge.
That is what we are faced with.
God save our American Republic.
*Ping!*
Without doing a thing to deserve it, the “R’s” are going to back into a majority in ‘10.
Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
Because their words had forked no lightning they
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright
Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,
And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight
Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
And you, my father, there on the sad height,
Curse, bless, me now with your fierce tears, I pray.
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
And if they do, we have to hold their feet to the fire and remind them (on an hourly basis if necessary) that it is NOT ‘business as usual’ and their only duty is to UNdo the damage that has been done to our Constitution by the current regime *AND* past Administrations as well.
If we’re not going to live by the Constitution, we might as well buy bananas, as whatever “people’s republic” we end up with will have that as it’s political symbol.
Wise and sage words FRiend.
Thank You.
The GOP is as statist as the ‘Rats. They had Congress for two decades and spent just as recklessly.
Tea Party 2012.
And .. just this morning Newt was on FOX bashing Palin .. although very carefully. I could tell by what he said that he was trying to send a msg that “she” was not acceptable to the RINO’s as a candidate in 2012 (even if they know she can win), because she’s NOT ONE OF THEM.
I used to have a lot of regard for Newt, but sadly, I do not support him anymore, and especially not for any elected office. He may be smart - but he’s missing the true anger of the public.
He kept saying Sarah was a “celebrity” and that she could have a good life with that status .. and it would be a lot less work than running for President.
Yet, she has more “governing” experience than Obama .. but Newt never makes that comment about Obama being a “celebrity”. I think the RINO’s are terrified of her and her influence on the American people.
My money’s on Sarah. She’s a whole lot smarter than the RINO’s are giving her credit.
Fellow Southerners, how much more of this BS humiliation do we have to take before we call it quits and go our own way? HOW MUCH MORE???
The word also needs to get out that this treasonous behaviour will be prosecuted and punished as treason when the people evict these scum from congress. Moreover, since these scum have lost all fear of whether or not they get re-elected, we need to determine exactly why they have lost this fear. Otherwise we will face this power-grab again and again. Yeah we all know they end up with consultancy/lobbying jobs, but we need to begin prosecutions of obvious ethics violations against these soon to be ex-congressmen, their spouses, and relatives. Corruption has become so endemic in Congress, we can expect little change from anyone we send there, until we stop their ability to profit from their time in congress, else the republic will surely be lost.
On the other side of the political divide, the DNC acts in the service of Progressive causes because it is tethered, financially and otherwise to a vast left-wing network composed of private organizations, unions, government officials, foundations, media outlets and individuals.
Republicans have no such infrastructure on which to rely, and thus lack a coherent strategy or message which might otherwise be advanced by a dominant and dynamic party leadership, which is also absent at the present time.
Well .. that’s not exactly true.
While they did spend .. a lot of it was FOR THE WAR IN IRAQ - should we be angry about that ..?? I don’t think so.
And .. while we’re pointing fingers, Obama has spent more in ONE YEAR - THAN ALL THE OTHER PRESIDENTS PUT TOGETHER.
So .. let’s not be so willing to hang the GOP just yet.
I’d vote for most of the GOP any day over a dem. The majority of GOP’ers have no plans to subvert the current system of govt .. while the majority of dems do. Let’s not allow a few left-leaning GOP’ers ruin the whole batch.
Every normal man must be tempted at times to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin to slit throats.

AMEN!!!
THANK YOU!!
It IS treason. EVERY Republican in power should be screaming bloody murder over what the socialist bastards are doing to our country.
Their stupid silence is just as bad as the silence of the so called “moderate muslims”, they give approval to the rape of the constitution by not bravely speaking out.
We need more Reverend Mannings!!
Good points, although I noticed that when referring to the GOP, you continually refer to them as ‘they’. Does that mean that you aren’t involved in your local or state party?
Seriously, it’s much easier than most people think. Here in our county, conservatives have taken over the party apparatus by getting involved and working. It was easy, because the RINOS who ran it before didn’t do any work, and were quite willing to step aside and let the workers take over. Now the conservative workers are in charge, with a conservative party chairman. If that happened all over the country, the McCain’s and Crists of the world would never get to first base.
It’s up to conservatives to put their money, and time, where their mouths are. Attending a TEA PARTY rally is great, but it’s uselss if you don’t follow up and really get involved.
How do you think the extreme left took over the Democrat Party?

When I say ‘they’, I’m referring to the GOP at the national level, specifically the RNC.
Congrats on your local successes! I’m involved, believe that.
