Bite your tongue and don’t be an ass!

I am the furthest thing from obsequious.

My pleadings are for common sense and measured, reasoned actions as opposed to a headlong rush with no contingency plans - which would surely doom us as Conservatives, to failure.

This is TOO IMPORTANT for us to fail - don’t you agree?

We will probably NOT get a second “bite at the apple”, so to speak.

By that, I mean that if our actions are poorly conceived, poorly planned, or poorly executed - it may bring such significant discredit upon all of us that we would sacrifice all of the “political coin” of credibility we may have left.

Though they may be dying, we presently have the mainstream mass media lined up in ranks for zer0bama, and against us.

They will readily associate us ALL with the most marginalized of fringe groups, just like they have tarred members of nearly every Gospel-of-Jesus-believing, pro-life church member with the scant handful who have killed abortionists and blown up clinics -

and of course, we ALL handle poisonous snakes on weekends, abuse our children by spanking them and denying them scientifically sound medical care in favor of “antiquated” “faith healing”.

That is how bad, how severe their “spin” will be to protect one of their own - especially their “chosen” one (barf!)

They will drag out every stereotype in their playbooks to use against us, to vilify us...and remember please - they have no compunctions about lying or fabricating stories from whole cloth if it suits their agenda.

If they dared to do so against George W. Bush (the “Rathergate” phony memos), there is little to stop them against us.

They have their operatives everywhere, and they will try as hard to trash us as they did Sarah Palin, and Joe the Plumber

I am DAMN sure not a rino - not now - not ever

NO way, shape or form. No how!

Learn to read before you EVER write another post like that to me; don’t be an idiot!

I stand completely and utterly for the US Constitution, and it grieves me to no end to see zer0 use it like toilet paper on a daily basis.

I advocate nothing so much as having a well and fully developed plan BEFORE we go on the attack.

“Half-baked” will not work. Our opposition is too shrewd, and they have already done too much to consolidate their own grip on power.

If they succeed in hijacking control of the census and its results, and giving away money to ACORN, even the midterm elections may not sweep the bass turds from power in the Congress, but if we cannot gain control of House and Senate...

Let me put it this way, Facts and truth be damned, (because that is the Democrats’ attitude) do you think that with a party majority behind them, Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid are simply going to roll over and give up? I don’t.

We will have to fight them for it. We need a plan, because right now, they have superiority of numbers, and that could trump us.

Look at the order of succession for the Presidency (my post #35). Pelosi comes right after Biden, and Reid follows her.

They are sadly, not so different from the group that had to be dragged into voting to impeach Bill Clinton (and Republicans had a majority at that time, even) and they could not be persuaded to remove him from office in the face of what should have been adequate evidence.

That situation was different of course, but a similar problem exists now - persuading the majority in power to do what is right - especially when it is against (the interests of) their party remaining in power.

Remember this, if you remember nothing else...I am talking about our need for a strategy.

Not just ANY old strategy, but a strategy for success.

We have our principles and that is good - great, or even laudable. But we must have an effective way to spread them and see them implemented.

Try reading my post # 35 and then get back to me. We need to think ahead - think of what comes “after”, or we will be perceived as creating a new problem as bad as the one we set out to solve.

We have to be prepared with a solution - offer a clear path through the mess, basically. If we do not show leadership, why should we expect to lead?

I am no rino - I am more Conservative than anyone I know - bar none...I am to the right of Barry Goldwater, Sr.

But I am a thinking Conservative who likes our side to win. I look at what we have done right, and what we have done wrong in the past for instruction.

If we seriously want to WIN, against the kind of opposition we are facing, we better be nothing less than ready, or they will destroy us.

We cannot telegraph our punches, we cannot leave any stone unturned, or any argument unaddressed. We cannot leave them an “out”. We must be ready to seize the opportunity and destroy them - and “look good” doing it.

We have truth and honor; they will lie at will and distort on-demand. We have to have that “something extra” to succeed.
