We are close to getting that spending-restraint agenda in place:

Let me repeat what I've said in another thread.

The path is clear for conservatives, and quite simple:
1. Make the Republican Party the majority party in America.
2. Make the Republican Party a principled, conservative party.

Note that both #1 and #2 are needed. Each by itself is not enough.

We are wasting energy if we do things that hurt this path to saving America.

1. Make the Republican Party the majority party in America.
2. Make the Republican Party a principled, conservative party.

I think #2 is more important than #1. By far.

However, if we can have both #1 and #2, I'm all for it. But if we're going to get only one, I choose #2.

Having a majority party that is a vehicle for liberal big-government RINOs is not in the interest of conservatives and they shouldn't vote for it, expecting that it will magically transform into something else at a later date. It never happens. We gave them the House. They said we need the Senate. We gave them the Senate. Then they said we needed the White House. We gave them the White House. Now they say they need sixty votes in the Senate. All this while spending more and more and more!

At some point, they have to deliver and not just make another excuse to us while spending like drunken Democrats and racing to beat the Dims to create some vast new entitlement program like the Pill Bill or expand the funding of the godless NEA or Department of Education or Department of Labor or finding fresh minority groups to pander to but who will never vote for us anyway.

Better minority party status than to utterly abandon our conservative and constitutional principles. And this budget has broken the camel's back. We're fully awake now and they're going to wish they hadn't tried to pull this one over on us.
