Alan Keyes

 

I can't help but look at Scott Brown's win in Massachusetts in the context of the larger strategy clearly being implemented by the RINO (Republican-In-Name-Only) clique that currently controls the GOP. Sean Hannity is the clique's bellwether media tool. It was no coincidence that he featured Mitt Romney on his program last night to revel in the Scott Brown victory. Scott Brown in Massachusetts is the advance guard for Mitt Romney in the White House (or vice-versa). He becomes the poster child for the RINO clique's archetypal GOP candidate who:

• Has no differences in principle with the socialist minded Democrats;
  
• Embraces the substance of Obama's socialist agenda, but "opposes" Obama by criticizing his implementation of socialism, especially when it comes to fiscal matters;
  
• Agrees in principle with the Democrats on the fundamental issues of justice and morality but employs the deceptive rhetoric of personal opinion to evade the questions of public law and policy they involve. Such issues include child-murder and other abrogations of the unalienable right to life, as well as the rejection of the God endowed rights of the natural family.
  

As long as the RINO clique can gull the conservative base of the GOP into identifying with and celebrating the success of such candidates, principled conservatives will never (or very rarely) win elections; conservative policies will never be implemented; and the tragic decline of America's liberty will continue to its inevitably ruinous conclusion.

Keyes is a great speaker, but he’s a flake of the first magnitude. I suppose he would rather have Coakley?

[Titus Quinctius Cincinnatus]

Hey, Keyes finally shaved! He no longer looks like a homeless bum.

[CatOwner]

Well, that didn’t take long. Many conservatives are NEVER going to be satisfied. The GOP is so screwed. :(

[US Navy Vet]

Go away Alan get thee into a small room and think DEEP thoughts for the rest of your life.

[refermech]

Hey Alan, quit peeing in the punch bowl....

[GOPsterinMA]

Time for the rubber room Alan. You’re embarrassing yourself, BADLY!

[dsc]

“Many conservatives are NEVER going to be satisfied.”

With socialism?

No.

I don’t know yet if Brown is a RINO, but if he is, it would have been better to beat Coakley with a real conservative.

[dinoparty]

What a weirdo is Alan. A smart weirdo, but a weirdo nonetheless.

[Titus Quinctius Cincinnatus]

Not only is Keyes a flake, he's also a bullpuckey artist of the first order.

Notice his guidelines for what makes a RINO:

Has no differences in principle with the socialist minded Democrats;

Embraces the substance of Obama's socialist agenda, but "opposes" Obama by criticizing his implementation of socialism, especially when it comes to fiscal matters;

Agrees in principle with the Democrats on the fundamental issues of justice and morality but employs the deceptive rhetoric of personal opinion to evade the questions of public law and policy they involve. Such issues include child-murder and other abrogations of the unalienable right to life, as well as the rejection of the God endowed rights of the natural family.

So far as we can tell, Scott Brown fits none of those qualifications, yet Keyes tries to slide him in as the "advance man" for the "RINO agenda."

Clearly, Alan Keyes has gone off the rails.

I suppose we have our own ‘Taliban’ wing.

I’m happy Brown won, just because of the health care issue. However, I don’t have any faith in the Republican party. Both parties are always looking for their next “star” who can win elections. They really don’t care what the person believes, if anything. It’s all about winning. This is why we have to be careful not to put too much trust in any politician. They will say anything to get elected. The Democrats view their base as being useful idiots, as do the Republicans.

In fact, this is why the pendulum swings from one party to the other every few years. Politicians promise what cannot be done. They fail, of course, and then the next challenger promises “change”, and for some reason, the American people believe it! Campaign promises are fundamentally dishonest. Why do we keep falling for them? Too bad we don’t have term limits.

[sam_paine]

I don’t know yet if Brown is a RINO, but if he is, it would have been better to beat Coakley with a real conservative.

That's the false choice.

Sure it would be better, but it's not necessarily possible in these states.

[ssaftler]

Hey, Alan, how did your campaign as a Conservative in a deep blue state like Illinois go?

When will people (on BOTH sides) learn that you cannot lead a nation as diverse as this with a single theme? What plays in Peoria is laughed at in Berkeley, while the “mainstream” San Franciscan is the “whacko leftist” any place more than about 200 miles from a major body of water.

I will take a “RINO” who is 80% with us to any Democrat who is 100% against us!

[billhilly]

Sit down and shut up Keyes. All he has ever done is run his mouth. He is a right wing Jesse Jackson.

[Cyman]

“Keyes is a great speaker, but he’s a flake of the first magnitude. I suppose he would rather have Coakley?”

No, I think that he is warning us to look deeper than the politics of Obamacare. We hailed the recall of Grey Davis here in Kalifornia and look what we got.

[sodpoodle]

While I will not accuse devout Conservatives of being cannibals.......there are those who are contrarians and it drives me crazy.

We may have to take back our Constitutional Republic one senate seat at a time and use friendly persuasion rather than fanatic pummelling.

Destroying non-Democrats is not helpful.

[sam_paine]

Yes. If only we had run a TRUE CONSERVATIVE in Massachussetts, like Hunter or Allen or ....

Then we could really have a great time celebrating a Coakley win, eh, Alan?!

He thanked Romney, and McCain! Things will get wierd around FR when people start to decide Brown is a "RINO."

But of course, that would be ok with Reagan's 11th commandment as long as it stops the slide into the abyss of the last, best hope for mankind.

[VanDeKoik]

“I don’t know yet if Brown is a RINO, but if he is, it would have been better to beat Coakley with a real conservative.”

We have a guy that will vote NO on socialized medicine, and likes tax cuts....THAT WON IN MASSACHUSETTS.

Sorry to tell Mr. Keyes, but we are not in the position to wish and hope when we need to climb out of this hole fast.

[GOPsterinMA]

AMEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
