"Republican Party Falling Apart"
The Post Chronicle ^ | May 22, 2007 | By Basil Harrington

Posted on 05/22/2007 9:29:44 AM PDT by SittinYonder

"The Republican Party is falling apart," said one insider to me recently. "The GOP has become the party of neoliberal corporate globalism, not the party of conservatism," said another. Perhaps election 2008 will be the last hurrah. Other than Tom Tancredo, Ron Paul and Duncan Hunter, the GOP presidential candidates are a joke. The rest are all neoliberal, interventionist globalists.

Look how we've derailed..."

Iraq is a huge mistake, a neocon experiment in utopianism, and we are paying the price. Bush's foreign policy is not conservative. It is Wilsonian nation building. The transformation of the Middle East to liberal democracy is Jacobin, not conservative. And it is because of the neocon war machine in the Middle East that we are hated.

If we really want to end terrorism in the U.S., then we should completely disengage from the Middle East. We should (1) completely withdraw from the Middle East, (2) end foreign aid to all Middle Eastern countries, (3) deport all Muslims from the West, and (4) end all immigration from the third world.

Many fail to realize it, but terrorism is more an immigration issue than Middle Eastern issue. If Seung-Hui Ch? had not been allowed to immigrate hither, the Virginia Tech massacre would not have happened. Three of the terrorists recently nabbed in New Jersey (plotting to attack Ft. Dix) were illegal immigrants who entered the U.S. from Mexico. And almost all previous terrorists, including those on Sept. 11, were either legal or illegal third-world immigrants.

As Jean Raspail said in Camp of the Saints, "the greatest piece of conservative fiction ever written," there is a third-world invasion of the West taking place. We are under attack. And we can either make a stand against the third-world hordes, or we can watch the West crumble.

We must address the problem now. We need deportations, attrition, employer sanctions, and all immigration (legal and illegal) to end from the third world.

But many seem not to care. Many politicians and corporations are supporting this invasion. Why? Either for cheap votes or to drive down American wages.

Failure to address this invasion not only is a dereliction of duty, but it is a form of treason. And many of the presidential candidates are guilty of treason? Rudolph Giuliani, John McCain, Sam Brownback, Tommy Thompson, Mike Huckabee - and let's not forget Barack Hussein Obama, Hillary Clinton, and John Edwards. Traitors, ever last one of them.

And then there's free trade, which is destroying our economy and undermining our sovereignty. But the neocons / neoliberals have their heads in the sand, wanting to take free trade to its logical conclusion in some perverse suicide pact.

The Democratic Party, which in the 19th century was the conservative party while the GOP was the left-wing party, betrayed the U.S. decades ago. And now the GOP is going the same globalist route? neoliberal wars, mass immigration to drive down American wages, and suicidal free trade pacts.

Do not stand for this nonsense!

If Tom Tancredo, Ron Paul or Duncan Hunter does not get the GOP nomination, then vote third party. Refuse to support the neocon / neoliberal globalist machine. If the GOP continues down this path, it is doomed anyway and, hopefully, out of the ashes a true conservative party will arise, perhaps the Constitution Party or the America First Party.

Or perhaps a new party will form, hopefully one modeling itself after the British National Party, Front National, or Vlaams Belang - all conservative parties in Europe, and conservative in the true sense of the word: the conservation of Western man. Not the phony neocon nonsense we have in the U.S.

I will be voting for either Tom or Duncan. Whom ever comes out ahead in the early Jan 2008 voting.

Tancredo is my guy, but when my primary rolls around on SUPER DUPER TUESDAY, if Tancredo is out, I'll go with Hunter.

Yep. Truer words were never spoken on this thread.

BTW: Don't forget how the populists and immigrants became heavy influences on the Dems in the second half of the 19th century, and that in New York from the Civil War on, the GOP WAS the conservative party.

It sickens me how the Southrons parrot the old lies about the Dems being "conservative." Not in any sense of the word. Jefferson was a Jacobin hypocrite, whose greatest achievement in life was a real estate deal. I love the Declaration, but in terms of political thought, he can't hold a candle to Hamilton, Madison, and Jay.

On that we can agree. Although we'll agree to disagree on the other bit, lol

"Tom Tancredo, Ron Paul or Duncan Hunter "

Any of the above is fine with me. I'll vote for the one with the most Mo (momentum).

If you think that quote from Tancredo deserves tinfoil, you have a gross misunderstanding of the history of Western Civilization and current events in the modern world.

Right now America is facing exactly the kind of problems that brought about the end of the Roman Empire: the glorification of perversion; illegal immigration; barbarians who want to destroy us; growth in government; excessive taxation; and a loss of Christian faith.

America is the last beach - one of the greatest thinkers of our time, Umberto Eco, has demonstrated that clearly.

Western Civilization may regroup and return if America falls to the perverts, secularists and Islamo-barbarians, but it may not.

That is fair, but hopefully we won’t be put in that position and everyone will be happy with the final nominee. Thanks for those reminders. lol. That is quite a list that some may need refreshers.

I continue to believe that Paul is mistaken about the Islamofascists and how to deal with them, and that's why I choose Tancredo and Hunter. If Paul were somehow to be the nominee ... we could do a lot worse than a president who believes in the Constitution.

Impossible. and irrelevant.

Don’t repeat talking points, think for yourself.

Iso doesn’t equal war. Iso didn’t cause wwii. Why is protectionism a problem? People who blame protectionism for war are the same people who want amnesty for cheap immigrant workers. US competitiveness has essentially been off-shored. The dollar is purposely being devalued - welcome to third world America. We need a candidate who will rollback NAFTA and bring back American jobs instead of building infrastructure in Muslim countries who don’t even want it and blow it up.

He left out Fred Thomposon or even Newt Gingirch who engineered the Contract with America.

Newt has given in to Algore's "man-made" global warming.

Fred has yet to prove his conservative credentials, IMO.

But his isolationism is a bit extreme.

I don't endorse the writer, and agree with you about the isolationism. However, I think some of his points illustrate the problems the Republicans face right now.

I'm going to print out and shred this article. Then I'm going to use it to fertilize my yard.
