Diehard loyalists are calling Clintons to abandon the democratic party
no quarters ^

Posted on 05/29/2008 7:02:48 PM PDT by wsjreader

I know you both are lifelong Democrats and I know your first instinct is to help the Democrats , no matter how badly you have been abused. I am writing to you to ask you to consider another option.

...

I know you are hesitant about abandoning the Democrats but consider that they have been co-opted by Bill Ayers’ and Barack Obama’s New Bolshevik cadres. In fact there is no Democratic party any longer. What is left is a cult very similar to the cults that followed Hitler, Lenin and Mao.

... The combination of power starved, ineffectual party ‘leaders’ – who have all envied your actual accomplishments, while they were never able to do anything; and the hijacking of the caucuses, the party apparatus and the threats and intimidation of party delegates; should all be indicators that something very, very bad is going on.

Indeed, I submit to you that the die is cast: the so-called Democratic party has been taken over by a group of far leftist/fascist radicals who are determined to foist their version of ‘democracy’ on the entire country.

You may think that I am being paranoid – and perhaps I am, nevertheless what is true is that the Democratic party no longer has a place for anyone named “Clinton”.

... I would say that this is a “once in a generation opportunity” but it is not, this chance only comes along once in a hundred years or more.

Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton – you have the intelligence, you have the experience, you have the political knowledge, you have the influence, you have the organization and you have the will of the people.

I know it will be hard, I know it will take time you could be using for your own private lives, I know it will take treasure and dedication and fierce resolve… I know it will take much, much more than you ever expected to be asked for… but, nevertheless, I am asking – and millions of Americans are asking: Take us away from these false ‘democrats’ help us create, organize and grow a new, truly, democratic party. A party for people with brains and guts and sense – a party for Americans not fanatics, for Americans not bigots, for Americans not cowards.

We’re ready – we’re more than ready, only say the word and we are there.

Thanks 2ndDivisionVet for the link. Rush sez, A Third Party Isn't the Way, May 29, 2008 (Note: Links to content outside RushLimbaugh.com usually become inactive over time), but he's talking about conservatives.

Of the presently established Third Parties, you would probably feel most comfortable with the Constitution Party. Just guessing.

I don’t know; in a three-way race between her, McCain of B. Hussein Osama-Obama, she just might get a plurality. A plurality put her hubby in the White House two times.

That's not a bad guess. I've read over their platform docs and recommended that others do so also.

I'm very comfortable with their position re: a return to the original intent of the Constitution, Federalism, etc., and if that were their primary focus, I'd support them in an instant. Unfortunately, they have a stronger an interest in seeing the Constitution re-written to match the Bible, specifically the New Testament -- the gospel of Jesus Christ.

Having been raised a Christian (Episcopalian), those teachings and tradition are near and dear to me, and I don't minimize the influence they had on the Founders. But the Founders also clearly steered clear of putting any religion in the plan for the government, and I believe they were wise to do so.

Thus, I found official platform statements like this troubling from a legal/legislative point of view:

This great nation was founded, not by religionists, but by Christians; not on religions but on the Gospel of Jesus Christ...

The goal of the Constitution Party is to restore American jurisprudence to its Biblical foundations...

IMO, those statements ought to be troubling to anyone who knows his or her American history, even the stauchest of Christians. I recognize that many folks are yearning for a merging of Christianity and the US government, and they are welcome to their opinions and beliefs, of course. Perhaps the name of that party should be the "Christian Constitution Party". Anyway, I just don't think that sort of explicit merging is a platform I can support.

If there's a party that has just the "Constitution" part, I'm going to get all excited. If the Libertarians weren't all such damn flakes that might be of some interest.

*sigh*
