you like that ... perhaps it's escaped you that I get pressure from my sister to vote for him and I won't AND maybe I like MOST of my family was raised Mormon too ...
We FIGHT ON!
I already told you. Ron Paul went to bed with the treasonous 911 truthers and lobbied against defending America when we were clearly attacked by foreign powers. That automatically rules him out of any consideration whatsoever for the position of commander-in-chief.
Giuliani won’t be running for prez. Rumors are he may be running for NY Gov. I sure hope so! If anyone has a problem w/that - too bad. NO conservative will ever run in NY. Hoping he will run and win. But he will have two opponents - whoever is the ‘rat candidate and voter fraud.
I voted for him too (not much choice was there)? I'd have a fat billfold if I had $1.00 from everyone who told me they voted for McCain because he was the lesser of two evils.
If McCain had won, we'd have even more of his liberal daughter to contend with. There's got to be a reason conservatives were meant to dig deep and locate a candidate for the next election who actually can handily WIN. At the rate things are going now, it shouldn't be difficult. People are already beginning to look for change to the change they got.
If conservative leaders don't begin to show some gumption against what's going on politically today, they'll have absolutely NO credibility with voters down the line. The GOP is like a weathervane (turning this direction and that). Right now we need someone "Constitutionally conservative" to steer the course straight ahead and not be sidetracked or silenced. The progressive right has merged with the left - and that direction is where we are now.
Duncan Hunter was a nobody right up till the primaries and then people said WHO?
I don't know if you knew this but Ronald Reagan use to be a Movie Star...then was Governor of California...Duncan Hunter was very popular in his district... and perhaps in Free Republic and perhaps the National Review. I might even remember seeing him once on Fox. get the BEST CONSERVATIVE....but get his/her @$$ out there NOW....just like the messiah had 4 years of much hoopla before his election. You are dreaming if you think an unknown talent will win....unless and this is a big unless, the messiah falls down flat on his face....(it looks like this could happen but lets not take that chance)
Good luck on that! Doubt that the General would want the job though.
It would be quite refreshing to have someone who’s got military experience and knows how to let our miltary do their job and provide them with the right tools to get it done.
Those who think our soldiers should be used as a food delivery service or a gay pride experiment need not apply.
We were discussing how our party knocked off the true conservative candidate.
It sure was. I just never got the feeling Fred’s heart was in it. He is a good man.
The GOP has NOT responded to my emails making suggestions about their direction. Nothing - nada - zilch. Guess they already know which way they are going and don't need advice or direction from conservatives.
I hear ya.
Very well put ~ keep it up Jim!

So far, this doesn’t look like a bugzapper thread for RINOs, but there’s always hope.
I traveled behind his ranch in 1987 by mistake. After about 10 miles in the Santa Barbara Mtns a sign posted said turn around. I didn’t and continued the next 5. I figured my sticker on the windsheild would get me by. (I had no idea ATT that it was his ranch. I miss that guy).
He wasn’t really on top to be knocked off. He never found a way to get his message out.
“I would not have voted for McCain without Palin”
So if it had been McCain/Huckabee what would you have done, stayed home, voted other party ... you can only vote for those on the ballot. It may be best, seeing the candidates, that Obama won .... maybe chemotherapy is necessary for our political condition.
Very well put Jim!!!
“Romneycare” in Mass. was the day I parted company with him.
Not an equivalent, but they certainly need a counterbalance in terms of organization, cohesion, and the various kinds of effort involved.
precisely.....the reason we cant do an ACORN is because ACORN is/was a criminal organization that no one will investigate.
That would be my reference to the learning curve. We are ready.
