TO: John McCain and the RNC,
Your latest solicitation for our money has a lot of “I want…” statements in it. Merely saying “I want…” does NOT impress me and won’t get the job done!
I would like to hear some “I WILL…” AND MEAN IT !
If you want our money, and our vote, then “WE WANT” some ACTION from the RNC and John McCain!
GET YOU HEAD OUT AND PAY ATTENTION…. WE ARE SERIOUS AMERICAN CITIZENS THAT VOTE!
We WANT an absolute, unequivocal, commitment that we WILL DRILL HERE, DRILL NOW, AND PAY LESS! The stupidity of sitting on trillions of cubic feet of our own natural gas and billions of barrels of our own oil while begging Arabs for more is beyond insanity! We want refineries, clean safe nuclear power, and STOP BURNING OUR FOOD FOR FUEL!
We WANT an absolute, unequivocal, commitment that the borders WILL be closed and NO illegals will get ANY amnesty or special consideration ahead of those waiting to enter legally!
We WANT an absolute, unequivocal, commitment that employers of illegals will be prosecuted. The illegals will go home on their own… and real wages for real Americans will rise!
We WANT an absolute, unequivocal, commitment that federal funding will be withdrawn from “sanctuary cities”…. immediately! I obey the federal laws… so should city officials… or defund and prosecute them.
We WANT an absolute, unequivocal, commitment that ONLY strict constructionist federal and Supreme Court judges will be nominated, AND that they will be supported, in hearings! Abiding by our Constitution has worked to get us here… it will work for our future!
We WANT an absolute, unequivocal, commitment that NO new taxes bills will be signed!
We WANT an absolute, unequivocal, commitment that there will be NO carbon tax schemes and NO so called “global warming” or “climate change” agreements catering to the fear mongers claiming “man-made” climate change. The world climate has ALWAYS changed and puny mankind cannot control it! The facts, evidence, and tens of thousands of scientists, say it is a pure hoax, a lie, and a grab for money and power and it MUST be stopped before it destroys our economy!
We WANT an absolute, unequivocal, commitment that ALL earmarks will be vetoed!
We WANT an absolute, unequivocal, commitment that Social Security will be reformed and made solvent to end the illegal Ponzi scheme that will devastate the retirement of so many!
We WANT an absolute, unequivocal, commitment to oppose all forms of abortion, oppose same sex marriage, oppose civil unions of same sex couples, and support marriage as a union between one man and one woman.
We WANT an absolute, unequivocal, commitment to retain “under God” in our pledge of allegiance, our coins to retain “in God we trust”, and English declared the official single language of the United States.
We WANT an absolute, unequivocal, commitment that if United States security is threatened, before American military forces are committed, Congress will issue a “declaration of war”.
Newt is offering you a “Platform For America”! READ IT!
http://www.americansolutions.com/actioncenter/petitions/?Guid=bf4a5257-45e3-4a94-97fc-57e2d7ecb6f9
It is a comprehensive list of what the overwhelming majority of “Americans” have said we want! If you are smart, you will use it in a Republican Platform! It is a winner for you politicians and for we American citizens!
Also check out http://buchanan.org:80/blog/2008/06/pjb-bush’s-black-list/
When John McCain, and the RNC, make these strong commitments, we will again support Republicans with OUR money and our vote!
But, NOT UNTIL THEN… IT IS TOO IMPORTANT!!!
DO YOU HEAR US…. OR ARE YOU NOW DEAF TO REAL AMERICAN VALUES?
I hope the Conservatives in these districts find a reason to go clean their House and Senate.
Now, if he would only back away from supporting, what was it, "fruity Newt" Gorebull Warming stuff...
Both the current major parties were third parties at one point in time. A third party becomes a majority party when enough people believe in and are willing to work for the causes it espouses.
“...but I am not sending money to him or the RNC.”
Same here actually. My post is about defeatist attitude, my actions are about anger at the Leftward movement of the Party.
Somehow we have to change our attitudes, all our attitudes. As I hear sometimes allegedly “possession is 9/10ths the law” stated, I believe “attitude” is 9/10ths of winning.
The “win” is for America, not specifically any candidate at this point. WE have to somehow “WIN” for America.
McCain’s all we have with a chance to defeat Obama, and it looks as though that isn’t going to change before November.
I think we need to really perk up and kick some butt. WE NEED CONSERVATIVES IN CONGRESS not only to keep Obama from successfully destroying this Nation should he win, but McCain as well.
What?? Have you heard something? We have meteor showers forecasted?
Or is this just more hype about 'hope' and 'change'?
At which time they will tax the living sh*t out it and cover it with so much cap and trade that it will be more expensive to use than plutonium.
Use it or lose it
There is no doubt about that. We do need Conservatives in Congress and fast. It won’t matter who is President, we will need them.
But attitude should be shaped by leaders. McCain is not shaping my attitude and the RNC has done nothing to get me excited to send them a nickle. They need to motivate the base and others or we will be in a bigger pickle then we are now.
The war is against liberals. McCain is not a liberal, he is not a Democrat. He is not as pure as the wind driven snow, absolute Christ like perfection, but he has conservative in his soul.
His nomination is at most a lost battle, perhaps even a small battle. The war for conservative absolutes against the liberal hordes must go on.
To not vote for McCain is to surrender the field and abandon the war.
(there might be parallels to contentious objectors fleeing to Canada or Pacifist Rats whining about the war in Iraq, but I won't go there)
I think the deal with Newt is, he came up with the contract for America. Newt thinks (and probably rightly so) that we need a new contract. He just needs to go back and work on the globull warming crap and bring it back to us.
Time to wake up, son.
> he has conservative in his soul
What kind of meaningless doubletalk is that??? Like the time Dubya said he looked into Putin's soul??
Empirically speaking.... there is an abundance of evidence proving the viewpoint of me and others, as has been witnessed here on FR. There is no evidence supporting the viewpoint you hold. Good luck in November.
If that awful cap and trade bill had passed McCain would have signed it, just like Obama. If Congress passes amnesty, McCain will don a sombrero and sign it. He is one of them, a liberal, a betrayer. There are Freepers who can hold their nose anyway. But this is how it will be between now and November. I wish them well.
Nor I to you. Let us hope that our fellow conservatives also consider their votes for Barr.
The RINOCRATS are not listening and I don’t think they care. There are two liberals running for president. One is a liberal on a budget and the other one wants a blank check. Either way we are screwed. We stopped being a democracy a long time ago. The oligarchy and inteligentsia are playing us like a fiddle. It has become a pretend democracy, no matter what we vote they do what they want anyway.
“Problem is, I think McCain will listen to the American people,”
I would like one example that he ever has. He SAID he heard the people about immigration, enforcement first, but has backed away from that yet again. Instead he’s pandering to the ‘hispanics’. He doesn’t need or want conservatives. He’s made that clear.
“I disagree with what the majority of the American people want.”
John McCain
`I believe my party has gone astray,’’ McCain said, criticizing GOP stands on environmental and minority issues.
*****``I think the Democratic Party is a fine party, and I have no problems with it, in their views and their philosophy,’’ he said. ``But I also feel the Republican Party can be brought back to the principles I articulated before.’’

PERCEIVED conservative dominance. Given that the problems in this country are caused by liberalism, which is a better strategy for conservatives:
Such taxes are always manipulated so as to exclude those with power; their function is thus to provide those who have power from would-be challengers. No thanks.
Could you list some conservative principles that McCain understands and believes in? Support for the war, probably, but what else?
McCain sometimes votes with conservatives, but I see very little to suggest he's does so out of personal conviction rather than political expediency. Can you offer some examples other than the war?
McCain can appeal to the "squishy middle" for the same reason - he IS the squishy middle.
If republicans across the board loose out on funding, and votes, because of that then so be it.
And, if 2008 leaves us with a party of the left and a party of the squishy middle...maybe there is a message there that both the middle and the right need to take notice of.
It all sounds nice Colonel, but you are asking the wrong people to do these things....they are just not interested. If you persist then you must be an extremist.
(sarcasm, sort of)
