Now is not the time to brood over worst case what ifs at the general election.
Now is the time to think of “What can I do to prevent that worst case scenario by getting involved?”
All politics is local.
Touch bases with your local people and roll up your sleeves and get working!
The tactic of tearing down Reagan so that the gutter-dwelling leftist Giuliani doesn't look so bad is hardly a favored tactic here these days. Have you not noticed?
We won't have to worry about it if fools don't ruin the GOP by supporting the guy who said this:
"Most of Clinton's policies are very similar to most of mine." - Rudy Giuliani
“Experience should teach us to be most on our guard to protect liberty when the government’s purposes are beneficent...the greatest dangers to liberty lurk in insidious encroachment by men of zeal, well-meaning but without understanding.”
-U.S. Supreme Court Justice Louis Brandeis
Very grim.
Thanks for the courteous reply. The lack of civility I have noticed around here lately has kept me away. I am glad I can reply without someone declaring war on me and being rude and sarcastic.
The debates next week will certaily be intersting.
Explain.
While my replies to you were curt, because of the nature of your posts, they were not discourteous.
Why don’t you pay me the courtesy of giving me straight responses to my comments to you?
Generally, it’s trolls who are unresponsive to substantive questions or comments here.
“But if I am not mistaken the national debt exploded under his leadership.”
He doubled revenues and rebuilt the military and National Defense enough to end the Cold War, but he could not get Congress to honor their pledges, and limit their spending, every conservative knows all this.
Considering he made the most dramatic gains in Foreign policy of any President and also used the military so effectively as a part of his Cold War strategy, I have always trusted his wisdom and self control in not letting Lebanon derail his strategic plans.
Let me gather my thoughts here and will post them.
Peachy.
I can’t remember... did I say “Thanks”???
Well, Thanks again if so.
No, it isn’t. Hillary is not assured the nomination, and the Republicans have other candidates and potential candidates who can defeat whoever the Democrats nominate.
I find the hoo-rah amusing, though.
Yep. It's early, and the best likely GOP winner I see is Thompson, but sadly, he's an Americas Free Trader from what I see. I'll light a candle for Duncan.
What I have to wonder is if W will support HR297. That would cap my depression. Politics is interesting, but in general, politicians make me sick (in a Katie Colon sort of way.) I need a modern day Will Rogers to cheer me up. Steyn is close.
“Why did you ping me?”
A couple of days ago you seemed concerned about the question of would we vote for Rudy if he wins our primaries, I just wanted to remind you that we have plenty of time for those worries later.
Nothing particular was meant by the ping.
“Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never did, and it never will. Find out just what people will submit to, and you have found out the exact amount of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them,; and these will continue till they have resisted with wither words or blows, or with both. The limits of tyrants are prescribed by the endurance of those whom they suppress.”
-Frederick Douglas
Peachy???? Fine, not.
First off, Rudy, no way. I like my guns and the aresenal under my bed. Abortion??? Don’t go there. Many forms of birth control is available. Period.
This thread, grim.
Why? Too much baiting going on. There are about ten posters that want too many posters tossed for some personal reason or another. Some, yes, of course, very understanable.
Others, no, not at all. There have been some true conservatives banned, or maybe suspeneded ( hard to tell ) cuz someone may have had a case of heartburn against them.
I have a problem with the fact that some Clown Posse members are allowed back here, for some reason or another.
That is my case of heartburn.
You asked, I explained.
Did I say you were not courteous?
And because you think I slighted you in some way by not responding to your post you then say I must be a troll??

That’s it, right there! Exactly what we’ve been talking about! Yea Knitting!
BUMP!
I would vote for Rooty if he was dead and Alan Keyes was VP on the ticket. That’s about the only way.
