Please Direct Your Anger and Efforts Against Liberal Democrats

Posted on 11/08/2006 12:04:55 PM PST by Williams

If I get one vanity this is it. Left wing approaches are doomed to failure. They threaten our prosperity and our very lives. This is based on history and common sense. The enemy of a successful America is not a political party. It is wrong headed leftist thinking.

Americans are generally conservative and polls always show they do not want to be labeled as liberals. But "we" allowed one of the dominant political parties to become radically left wing, and we treated them with courtesy and credibility all the way. The democrat party harbors representatives who are so Marxist and so offensive that the American people should have demanded a purge before returning democrats to power. Many of those extremists will now hold powerful positions. If there is a failure by republicans, it has always been a failure to call the leftists out loudly by name, to embarrass them for their radical viewpoints. Instead, they are largely ignored and treated like colleagues for a variety of reasons - all political and all bad for America.

We tolerate the democrat marxists because they are in safe democrat districts and we don't devote resources to defeat them. They represent minorities who don't vote for us anyway, so we ignore them. We are afraid to confront some because they are minorities. To some extent we like having radical democrats, because we think that will help republicans get elected in more moderate districts.

But there was going to be the day when democrats returned to power. And that day is dangerous because the democrat party became a leftist party. If they were conservatives or even moderates they would not threaten our security or economy to this degree. But they do.

So don't eat our own, don't attack our president who certainly is not a leftist. Attack leftist ideology, insist that republicans get tougher in the battle of ideas. Demand that leaders recognize the ultimate objective is our lives, fortunes and sacred honor. It is not a political chess game. When democrats say the American people want to raise our taxes or weaken our security and abandon our allies - demand that our leaders say "Like Hell!" And that they ridicule leftism as an offensive prescription for disaster.

Democrats won by running some more conservative candidates in key races, and hiding their liberal leadership. Let's make sure we remind them that the election was NOT about change from conservative to liberal.

As we all know, the republican party harbors some incredibly stupid liberal Senators. The problem is the democrats have far more of them. Encourage republican conservatives to stand up to them. Force the democrats and republicans to become more conservative. If you just throw out the Rinos the left wing democrats will fill the void.

Don't ever lose heart and abandon this country to the leftists. They are despicable and they will get you or your children killed.

Support the president, thank God for him at this moment. Just remind him that America is a conservative nation. Let's make sure "liberal" and "left wing" remain dirty words.

It isn't too late. Seize the day.

I intend to start by writing to all my my Democrat representatives and demanding answers as to what they plan to do about, among other things: the high price of gasoline; the staggering (and skyrocketing) costs of illegal immigration; the increase in identity theft; voter fraud; waste, fraud and abuse in government bureaucracies; and the threat of global terrorism.

Well I do think they were misled. Do you think new dems if they had run on their true core beliefs would have won.

Immaterial. They knew that they were picking up a rattlesnake. They wanted to be lied to. See my tagline.

We need to get rid of liberal Republicans in primaries, then take on the 'rats

If more of us took part in the primaries, a RINO would only be known as the misspelling of an animal from Africa.

"It isn't too late. Seize the day."

Statement of the DAY! IMHO.

Damn people, some folks left their spines at home and quivered their way to the polling box, and it seems a bunch of paintywaists around here would join them?

I'm bummed about this, but I'm eager to get the ship upright again. Cripes, how pathetic...

A freak show for sure, and your list didn't even include Barney Franks. He is a truly despicable embarrassment - apart even from keeping a male prostitute he is an insufferably, insanely loud mouthed liberal.

As bad as it's been yesterday and today (Rumsfeld! Waaah!), everyone should remember it's not the end of the world, or the republic. As Ann Coulter said, Republicans can't win everything all the time. Sometimes you have to take some hits, and sometimes taking some hits is for the best. You know the cost of Ronald Reagan? Jimmy Carter.

We've taken a beating, we'll all acknowledge. The thing that matters now is what we - everyone - does next. That means waiting and seeing, trying, hoping and praying.

"Comprehensive Immigration Reform"

The deeper I get into the Demographics of the Vote, it becomes clear that we lost the votes of Hispanics, and the Biggest losers of this election ARE BLACKS...

It is now proven that Dems do not have to pander to blacks to win, Hispanics are the Future.

They will cast the Blacks upon the ash-heap of Abortion-Induced Genocide after the 2008 Election, when they won't need them anymore.

"will come to bite them back, especially in the pocketbook."


I am not worried about that at all. We have not been doing very well with regards to the WOT. Even if we won in Iraq we are still losing ground around the world. Now we will have to pull out of Iraq this will signal that we are weak to the terrorist they will hit is at home after we have left.

The war on terror has just became a whole lot worse then before. I expect millions of Americans to die before we go back.

Well remember what happened with Clinton in his first two years, the voters decided to bite back at the rattlesnake dems.

Well, we did our part here in Battle Creek zotting a RINO for true Conservative - let's hope Wahlberg survives the Rats and the RINOs in DC.

We cant follow the democrat tactics asking "why did they win?" rather than "why did we lose?"

They ran more conservative candidates

"So you can have Reagan and I'll have Thomas Jefferson."

Sorry, but that ain't gonna get it. We've got to settle some serious differences among ourselves before we even think of going after Dems. The Conservatives and the Libertarians have to get this fight done now, and settle things. Because if we don't, we're going to be in the same place in 08.

A brilliantly short, and true, assessment.

Now our President will have to "give the people what they want"--what they voted for anyway.

I am no longer going to clog the fax lines of my dedicated, "no new immigration", "secure our borders", conservative Senators and Congressmen. They will have enough on their plates, as they battle, FUTILELY, with House and Senate Dims. Instead, I'm going to learn Spanish--'cause next election cycle we'll probably ALL be using Spanish language ballots.

Yes, Sir. The people got what they wanted. Now we won't have to worry about "guest workers", there will just be a "general amnesty". The "immigration issue" will quickly, quietly, and conveniently be "put to bed", a "win" in the Dim column, and totally solved, according to the Clown Car "drive-by" media! We can all stride confidently into our rosy new "changed","all inclusive" future.

God, I am so thankful for those fabulous "conservative" Dims! We really taught those dishonest, morally inept, money-spending Republicans a lesson, didn't we?!!!! /s

Sorry for the rant, but I've had a belly full of the self-righteous "conservatives" I've encountered lately. Welcome to our "brave new world" (no sarcasm intended), courtesy of "true conservatives".

And these "conservatives" are beholden to nancy pelosi. They will vote the pelosi line and hopefully be gone in two years.

Yes, but we can answer why ours didn't win...by trying to be moderates. By being too cautious. By not standing up to political correctness. By acting like they weren't a majority.

Two years is too long.

Recommended course of action:

1. BLOAT

2. If you are in or downwind of a major urban area, move as soon as possible to a safer location

3. Dig in with a defensible perimeter

4. Be ready for TSTHTF

5. Once TSTHTF, aim small, miss small

Hard to do when the party establishment throws its support and resources behind RINOs.

AMEN! I voted for a true conservative in the Ohio GOP primary, and DeWine still got elected. Now, we have Brown as our senator, and he is a communist. It is going to be a LONG six years, folks.

My piddle FWIW..

IMO, the Reagan conservative movement officially died when Newt Gingrich was ousted during the Clinton impeachment. Even in this election cycle, Newt offered a visionary 10 point plan for the Republicans to run on and the leadership did nothing. After years of spending like drunken sailors, all the former majority leadership offered was "we suck less than Nancy Pelosi."

What was left after Gingrich? We called them RINO's, but they were Democrats that ran as Republicans. What will be interesting now is that a significant number of the newly elected (D) House members ran on positions that are to the right of the current/former Republican majority. Are they DINO's? Or, did they lie to get elected? If they are socialists disguised as moderate dems, i.e. they lied, they will be in the street in 2 years with the RINO bums.

Our most urgent issue - who is the next great conservative leader? The media is already annointing McCain and that doesn't work for any/many real conservatives. Mike Pence? Mitt Romney? I don't know at the moment.
