The RNC will try to take down the "rebels without a cause" or as I prefer "the rebels without a clue" and that includes Katherine Harris.

If your statement were true, you'd have a point. But when he was governor of Texas -- and since he left, the new governor has done the same -- he ran RiNO challengers in the primaries against incumbent conservative Republican members of the state school board.

He did this when the battle over schoolbook content (history, morals, politica) was flaring hot and heavy, and People for the American Way was sending folks to Texas hearings on schoolbooks to try to neutralize Texas conservatives like Donna Ballard who'd courageously taken a stand against the NEA/East Coast clerisy claptrap that was being propagated into Texas schools.

The fight was started by a very unstylish, conservative couple, Mel and Norma Gabler, who began attending state school board comment sessions with marked-up copies of Texas schoolbooks that were riddled with factual errors and liberal editorializing. The Gablers stirred up grassroots conservatives to try to do something about the intellectual and moral pollution of their schools, and they elected a small number of school board members. Enter Governor Bush, and he promptly opposed them, putting up RiNO business types to run for the conservatives' seats (not the seats held by liberal Democrats and people who toed the line of the NEA and Texas Education Association).

It's important to remember that Bush and the people around him, when he was in Texas, didn't support Texas conservatives in their cultural fight against liberalism. That fact contextualizes their lack of support for Katherine Harris, Bill McCollum, and other conservatives now, even as they continue to support moderate-liberal "mavericks" like Arlen Specter, Penny Collins, and Olympia Snowe, who have gone off the reservation repeatedly on votes important to the Administration.

Bush and company have a lot of "'splainin'" to do, but they don't explain squat to anybody -- you just go along with everything, including NAFTA, CAFTA, the WTO, and the NWO, or get stepped on.

They do not like McCain who is also on the conservatives' $hit list.

I think the only people who like McCain are the MSM and George Soros, who has given McCain a lot of money.

Whoa ! Are you sure about that ?



I knew that scoundrel George Soros was buying into the Liberal GOP by supporting the campaigns of Moderate Republicans now, but I did not think that McCain would take anything from someone as slimey as Soros !

If true, it will come back to haunt Senator John McCain .

And all of us Americans- - - Soros is dangerous to our country's welfare . .

By the way, that loudmouth Jon Stewart likes John McCain~
at least until he(McCain) appeared at Liberty University - -
After that episode, the Libs & Lefties in the 'Nuke York' Media are far less friendly to McCain now . . . .
