The next American president will have to be – or perceived by voters to be – the real deal.

Real Deal? Evander Holyfield should run then.......

Minute Men of America
 Stand Up

 

 

 

I always thought your group stood against illegal immigration.  I also thought  the Minute Men wanted a permanent security fence along our southern border.  It is now clear to me that your leaders are either asleep or have given up on the cause.


"When I am president, I will build a fence."

 

Did you know .....Fred Thompson in a speech in Iowa on the 21st. of Dec. declared  "When I am president, I will build a fence."  He went further on to say...Amnesty and illegal immigration, he said, are not healthy for the U.S. or Mexico. "We need to be a nation of high fences and wide gates."

Is this not what we want?
Where are our leaders?
Why aren't there Minute Men  TV spots right now endorsing and supporting Fred Thompson?
 

If we fail to do so we may have a Democrat or a liberal Republican elected, who will then push an amnesty bill through congress. 

Call your Minute Men Headquarters today and give them your opinion.

I would rather vote for a Democrat than that....more government involvment...amnesty pushing... foreign affairs ignorant...Bush bashing....can't remember what he said yesterday....high taxing....parole giving...more gun control.......credential lying.....let our kids have meth........preacher hick from Arkansas. That's about it (sure I missed something)

NRA of America
 Stand Up Now

 

I always thought your group stood for the 2nd. Ammendment.  I also thought  the NRA wanted to elect politicians supporting gun ownership.   What's your problem?


"My idea of gun control is a good, steady aim."

 

Did you know on Dec. 21st. in a speech in Iowa Fred Thompson said:

When someone asked about what the government could do about AK-47s and the Westroads Mall shooting, Thompson said that assault weapons are not the problem, it is the people using them inappropriately; and it is not the government's place to remove guns from rightful citizens.

"Look at those church shootings," he said, in reference to the Colorado Springs, Colo., shootings that killed five and wounded five on Dec. 9. "That armed volunteer saved countless lives."

Thompson added, "My idea of gun control is a good, steady aim."

Is this not what we want?
Where are our leaders?
Why doesn't the NRA have TV spots right now endorsing and supporting Fred Thompson?
 

If we fail to do so we may have a Democrat or a liberal Republican elected, who will then push to limit or eliminate private gun ownership.

Freepers Call your NRA Headquarters today and give them your opinion.

I Thank McCain for his service in the military.

But, after he got into politics, after the Vietnam War, IIRC, he went to Vietnam with Kerry for a ‘tour’ of their prisons, to assure us that the NV’s didn’t have any POW’s.

McCain, led by Kerry, ignored what little they did see, and knew about, and signed some documents proclaiming there were no POW/MIA’s left.

The video of Kerry presenting the signed document has McCain hanging his head in shame.

Those POW/MIA’s might consider McCain a traitor.

are u saying that people who work together should not talk with each other or agree with each other on anything , if they are not of the same party?
How many friends do you have ? and before you become friends with them, do you ask them what political party they support? what church they go to etc etc ?

Its hard to be optimistic,while being a witness to the downfall of the republicrat party.I have been watching this party give in ,and give up ,for twenty years or more.The Democrap party has never been so vulnerable ,as they are now.They have absolutely no issues to win an election.But I don’t think the GOP wants to win ,I believe as long as the congress stays equally divided, no matter who is in charge,the charade’s will continue..Has the GOP started any campaign against the global warming hoax? Has the GOP had any voice in drilling for oil,building nukes,using coal?Has the GOP exposed the NEA on this fraud called education?Where is the GOP on illegal immigration?And the list goes on.Oh,I forgot,these issues are conservative issues ,they wouldn’t’t want to make the RINOS feel not welcome would they .I’m sorry it slipped my mind,they bring LOTS of money and you can still hang the GOP banner on them and celebrate a victory.Have you noticed ,the more conservatives we get in the media the more the GOP lays down.Look how far we have come in twenty years.Rush was the only voice .Now with 24/7 access to a conservative somewhere,we are still statistically tied?Somebody help me out here..Is the GOP addicted to second place?Talk about disconnected, go to a local county party meeting ,around here its all local,they haven’t a clue about the national scene.Or state scene for that matter.We voted out Dewine while the state and county party endorsed him.Go figure.Ill be happy to send a dime to an individual candidate but not to a bipartisan GOP/RNC
